Dance Your Ass Off (Salsoul Remixes)

The Ultra Music record label has teamed up with spin studio Flywheel for some special spin classes which would feature songs from this new remix collection comprised of songs from the legendary Disco label Salsoul Records. The significant majority of the songs selected for this compilation are beloved classics. A few were underground hits, and there is one brand new track (the Jessie Andrews one). Overall, most of the new remixes are faithful to the originals, but are updated enough for today. The highlights include the remixes of "Love Sensation", "Ain't No Mountain High Enough", "Love Thang", and "By The Way You Dance." The remixes of "Jingo" and "I Got My Mind Made Up" are decent, however, the production on them loses the integrity that the originals had. Other remixes done of those over the years, most notably by Mount Rushmore and Thunderpuss respectively had been much better. The compilation is continuously mixed like a DJ set. The songs are nicely sequenced with every transition being very smooth. This is overall a great compilation.
