i heard the record already.
didnt really catch my attention, since i already heard it before.
like someone already said, its nothing new.
but i do like it. and i do like rockell as a performer on stage.
saw and talked to her during the party 93.1 summer blast concert in miami and also helped out at her show at ozone in miami.
she can put on a show.(i still have those pictures).
but since i know you are going to be reading this soon, i do have another question.
is there anything else that robbins is planning to put out on the market ,besides rockell, that will be a good break for both the freestyle and breaks/freestyle market.
Im talking about other artist...a new face.
Robbins did alot when they picked up K5 off of kram. "passion" and "red Alert" did alot for both freestyle and the breaks scene back then, as did rockell's material.
I know that later you guys put out jackie cenci "memories", which was a bad ass production with carlos berrios (awsome), but wasnt pushed on radio as much as rockell. then Victoria Angeles -----i wasnt really fond of that record---i heard all that before.
(lol, Rockell and collage "Dream boy dream girl"..no dis..but slice my vains!!)
and finally george lamond and cynthia. yet i didnt see the same push for those projects as rockell still had for herself.
i mean, if Cynthia would of released "save your love For me" instead of "I never said" and had the remixes done by the same people who did Dee Dee's material on "forever" and included some feirce break remixes..that record would of been the bomb.
same with george lamonds material..for example "lately" , i love the carlos berrios remixes...but why give the remix work to Guiseppe D.
everyone i know knows Guisseppe personally, i dont. but what i saw on that record was filler. it wasnt no Ian van Dahl (who is also on Robbins).
So why not push other Freestyle artist with remixes by the people who produce the records that are on the radio now like dee dee, ian van dahl,Sulk, lout Sprecher "omni bus", or kate ryan and all those other artsit also on robbins.
I mean, if everyone is in the same circle and on the labels roster, why not...especially if the trance sound and the freestyle/breaks sound is side by side on both radio and the undergound scene.
We opened up for both dee Dee and ian van dahl in miami and tampa. They perfeormed their songs all in trance, we did trance and freestyel/breaks in our show and had a strong impact as well.And we have no problem flounting Freestyle roots and afiliations with freestyle icons and past legends. and i see that people accept us more, they are more warm. they feel like they see one of their own on stage. We always get invited to the after after after after party...and it has to do alot with bieng afiliated and in the freestyle community. also with the freestyle/breaks mentality.
so maybe it would not be a bad idea to have other artist on robbins, put out freestyle/breakbeatremixes of their comercial trance material.
i would love to hear a carlos berrios remix of a dee dee record or any other trance artist robbins has.
or any remix work by the many talented producers and remix djs on this site.
all i say is think about what i said...i deal with label heads everyday...you guys have the power to make things happen. its all in your hands. And you john, out of alot of people seem to care alot about the freestyle community and genre.
otherwise..you wouldnt be posting on a freestyle site and wondering what the freestyle community thinks.
well, if you ever want to drop a line or need more opinions and 25 cents of my thoughts you can contact me at
