Currently #7 on UK iTunes albums
It was a great birthday present to me!
What's the "albums" title and what's the song list?
It's called "Supertonic Mixes" and here is the tracklisting:
1. I’m Coming Out / Upside Down 3:07*
2. Love Hangover 3:45
3. The Boss 3:38
4. Surrender 3:06
5. Ain’t No Mountain High Enough 4:05
6. No One Gets The Prize 5:20
7. It’s My House 4:40
8. Touch Me in the Morning 4:18
9. Remember Me 3:40
I was initially looking forward to this release, as I really liked the earlier single releases of the ANMHE and I'm Coming Out/Upside Down remixes ...but the rest of these tracks just sound like the original, but worse, since there's just a basic dance beat added to the background. Just not very inventive or creative compared to other remixes that I've heard [[ie. Diana Extended, the 2004 YKMHO remix on the No. 1's, the 2007 Japanese remix project, Almighty remixes comp), but just my opinion. I'll stick with the originals.
#16 on US iTunes albums chart
I think they're fine, if basic. Honestly, Eric plays it a bit too safe and simple with his mixes. I do have to say though, I love his dramatic opening to No One Gets The Prize with those timpani rolls. I also am annoyed they kept them to radio edits. I prefer longer mixes [[and nearly all of those remixes have a club version that they could have included instead). The instrumentals, eh, I can take or leave those.
Sadly it's streaming which dictates the charts nowadays and "older" artists don't generally do well in this.
Although it reached as high as #5 in the UK iTunes album charts the album isn't in the UK top 100 albums after the weekend.
The one track which has garnered some attention is I'm Coming Out/ Upside Down and rather oddly Chain Reaction re-charted!!
