Tony is the best
Customer Rating: 5 out of 5 
I remember Tony back when he used to work at Downtown records in NYC..I was a big fan of him when he was part of the Latin Rascals & I'm still a fan..I'm glad he's still doing his thing 20 + years later.. I love this cd!!! Keep them coming Tony!!!

GET IT IS NICE MIX WITH DANCE ,TRIBAL,AND HOUSE I GUESS U LIKE LIKE IT SO DON'T THINKING TOO MUCH JUST BUY IT .........

One of the best Circuit Vocal mix CD's
Customer Rating: 5 out of 5 
I love almost all the songs on these 2 CD's. Tony is a great producer, and continues where Hex Hector left off. Sometime in the middle of 2004, Tony suddenly became a great dj. He used to play cheesy happy songs. Now his style is harder and more tribal, and his CD shows off his new style. Well done. My only complaint is that the sets are short--about 60 minutes each CD.

Moran's strongest mix-a vocal lover's dream with some exclusive gems
Customer Rating: 5 out of 5 
Disc 1 is a peak hour vocal anthem lover's dream. The CRUCIAL REASON TO GET THIS DISC is for the near full-length version of Deborah Cox's "Easy as Life" which was previously only available as a download on the Disney site. The second most crucial reason...the near 9 minute version of the rare Tony Moran/Warren Rigg mix of Kristine W! The Deep Influence mix of "dance with me" is one of the best full vocal mixes I've heard in a while that includes the verses. Disc 1 is non-stop powerhouse, and even the "filler" like "tribal funk", "kerosene" and "give me love" aren't bad. I still would have passed on them to get longer versions of some of the stronger tracks though. A few of the tracks are a little on the short side. Disc 2 is vocal heaven from tracks 1-5. The tony moran mix of "touch it" is amazing, but this exclusive mix only gets 4 minutes of airtime!!! track 6 is boring filler, Track 7, "horn drivers", is an okay instrumental, but runs a bit long, track 8 is a really odd Latin flavored track with manipulated vocals. The friburn & urik billboard dance chart topper "show it", hard to find on CD, is here, but it's only about 5 minutes long. Again, could have lost some of the instrumental filler and given us longer versions of the hard to get stuff, although, in my opinion "Show it" IS filler. BORING. But the disc ends brilliantly with 8 minutes of the hard to get Chad Jack mix of Vernessa Mitchell. I have all of Tony Moran's mix CDs, and I can definitely say that here, he manages to make TWO CDs-worth of mix that is better than any single disc he's ever released. Track times:

CD1
1. jumpin (4:10)
2. Luv luv (4:56)
3. Tribal funk (3:19)
4. Dance with me (5:45)
5. Party time (6:26)
6. Easy as life (9:45)
7. Pump it up (6:16)
8. Kerosene (5:51)
9. If I close my eyes (5:51)
10. Give me love (4:31)
11. I'll be your light (8:47)

CD2
1. tie me down (5:33)
2. touch it (4:18)
3. I need you (2:27)
4. Waiting for Algeria (6:44)
5. Live you all over (8:27)
6. Echos for doruma (5:39)
7. Horn drivers (6:12)
8. Habla con la luna (5:39)
9. Show it (5:24)
10. Took my life (8:13)

Good but could be better.

Well i'm reviewing the CD like 7-8 months after i bought it and have to say a few things. I'm not a gay but i like Tony Moran's mixing. I had to check out that Tour De Beats. Now after some time have passed i have to say that it's not as good as i thought it was. Some tracks are really great (anthems!) and some are really poor (pots and pans hehe). Let's check the good: Luv 2 Luv (but u can buy the Luv 2 Luv CDS instead if u like), Dance With Me (i like lol), Party Time (great stuff - u can but it also on CDS - i did - not from amazon.com though), Easy As Life (gay anthem! - i'm not gay but i like this), Give Me Love (good sounds); Live You All Over (gay anthem as they say... it's good but u can buy a CDS instead - same with waiting for alegria - rosabel mix is better then moran's...), Took My Life (Chad Jack is fun i must say). The rest are not special and rather annoying (i.e. Echoes From Doruma - what the hell is that?). In the future i'd like Tony to make some Unmixed CD releases instead of giving us the good stuff and the bad in the same package.
