Denise Lopez Recycles Old Hit For Fresh Sound...

Dont_you_wanna_be_mine_2 

"Turn Around, make your move, wait for love and you might lose…” sings legendary club diva Denise Lopez and so right she is! 

I really didn't know much about Denise Lopez until today, but apparently she had a hit with "Don’t You Wanna Be Mine" already back in the 90's which peaked at #86 on the Billboard Dance Chart.  Well, she remixed and recycled it and is giving it another go on the dancefloor - and from what I hear, it's still sounds as fresh today as it did back then.

Take a look and listen at the video below.  I quite like it because it brings me back to the glorious days of New York freestyle - and those truly were the days weren't they?!  Now if I could only convince Sweet Sensation and Linear to reform - adding that to my to to-do list now...

"Don't You Wanna Be Mine" is out for download now.

    This Week's Song
    "So Hot"
    by Monti Montanez

    The former Menudo star gives us a Latin taste of what's to come. Truly, a superstar in the making. This single also benefits The Children's Miracle Network - a worthwhile cause and a smoking hot dance floor number. What more could you ask for?

    This Week's Album
    "Hands"
    by Little Boots

    Truly one of the great electronica albums of 2009 by the hottest new artist on the scene. Even if you are skeptical of Little Boots like I was, you won't be disappointed with the depth, innovation and pop-tastic pleasure "Hands" will bring you.
