THUNDERPUSS: best DJs on the scene

"I believe that Barry Harris and Chris Cox aka THUNDERPUSS are absolutely the best DJs on the music scene today. They have a way of taking a song to a whole new level when the remix it. I think that this cd is a good sample of their work. I say sample because they have only included their edits on this cd. You have to hear the full club mix or anthem to fully appreciate their work. The best songs on this cd in my opinion are Don't Tell Me by Madonna, Hero by Enrique Iglesias, First Class Freak by THUNDERPUSS, and Don't Let Me Be The Last To Know by Britney Spears. As far as I know this is the only place to find Don't Let Me Be The Last To Know by Britney on cd as well as First Class Freak. Anyway, I wish they would have included some of the full length club mixes here, but nonetheless, this is still an awesome cd and I would recommend it to anyone who loves club music."

"At long last, here is the exceptional debut mix album from the superb LA-based DJ team of Thunderpuss (Chris Cox and Barry Harris). To the average listener, their name may not ring a bell, but you have definitely heard their remixes. Madonna, Janet, Whitney, Britney, J.Lo, Enrique, Backstreet Boys and even Mary J. Blige have had their songs reconstructed by Thunderpuss. This CD compiles some of their mixes as well as a few tracks produced by others. The disc sets the tone with Madonna's "Don't Tell Me," and continues right up to the energetic rendition of Britney's "Don't Let Me Be the Last to Know." Everything else in between ranges from excellent to even better: Enrique's "Hero" stands out; we're treated to Barry Harris's "I Got My Pride" with Pepper Mashay, and there's also the new TP single "First Class Freak." My only complaint is that they picked the wrong version of "Dive in the Pool;" it's not a bad remix, but they should have used the version that appears on the "Queer as Folk" soundtrack. All in all, a solid compilation that put Thunderpuss head and shoulders above many of their fellow remixers."

Could be fabulous...

"When you think of THUNDERPUSS, you think of fabulousness! For the most part, this CD holds very true to Thunderpuss' diva vocals, harcore beats, and gay club anthems. However, as the CD is winding down, TP2K tends to stray away from all that with a not-so-exquisite remix of "Dive In the Pool" by Wayne G. Heaven, and a less satisfactory Britney Spears song, "Don't Let Me Be the Last to Know". I'd give it 5 stars if it weren't for those two minor...but serious faux pas!"
