Review

Review by Artistopia Music: [1]

If you're familiar with the song "Put the Needle on It" by Dannii Minogue, you are going to be shocked by the ripped off rhythm, bass, melody, vocal quality, and even lyrical concept of this song! It's unbelievable. But it's a good funky dance tune, and the remix is a heavy and melodic trance track that doesn't focus so much on the vocal. You get an edit and extended version of the original mix, and edit and extended version of the trance mix, and an instrumental karaoke mix.
