"This is the 3rd release in the "Dance Essentials" series, and is just as good, if not better, than the first two. The mixing on this CD is awesome, the songs blend together effortlessly and there are no harsh transitions from one song to the next. I found the song selection on this CD quite interesting, in fact I had only heard about half of the songs before. But I was pleasantly surprised at how great (almost) every song was. I could have done without the extremely overplayed version of "Like a Prayer" but all the other great selections on the disc far more than make up for it. My personal favorite is "Rising Sun" which I heard for the first time on this CD and it is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. I would highly recommend this CD to anyone who likes dance/trance and would like a CD with quite a few songs they probably haven't heard before. I have a feeling this will stay in my CD player for a long time...."
