Afrika Bambaataa, the Godfather of Hip-hop, has worked with artists as soulful as James Brown, as pop friendly as Boy George, and as funky as Bootsy Collins. The Cosmic Force co-creator can look back on his illustrious career and say that he and his crew are responsible for influencing the fate of several sub-genres of music, including Miami and Atlanta bass, Latin freestyle, hip-hop, house, and early techno. 1982's "Planet Rock," featured on the Don't Stop Planet Rock EP, is the ultimate party-rockin' record. The lyrics tell groove junkies about a utopia where socializing and getting down are the only requirements for residency. The words may go in one ear and out the other, but the beat knocks holes in the back of heads and it cannot be ignored. DJ Magic Mike's "Bass in the Planet Mix" funkily incorporates just what the title suggests, while the classic mix, more electronic in feel, embodies an overwhelming digital atmosphere. --Asondra R. Hunter

Didn't have what I was looking for..........2001-10-18

I have been looking for a year for the electronic-tinged, vocoder-filled instrumental version of "Planet Rock" that used to be played everyday on the radio and have been unsuccessful. I thought I had finally found it when I came across this EP, however it was not there. I gave the recording three stars because I already have all these versions. My rating may not be fair because I was looking for a particular version that is unfortunately not included in this collection, however the song remains danceable and groundbreaking for its time on all the included versions. If you have only one or two versions of this mega-hit, get this EP.

"Planet Rock" gets the bangin' re-mix treatment!.......2001-09-12

Man, I don't see how the previous reviewers could diss this CD by giving it such low ratings. The Magic Mike re-mix is my favorite version because of the James Brown breakbeats he looped on top of the main rhythm. And the original 12" vocal version plus Bonus Beats 1 is reason enough to buy this CD. This is the song that everybody was rockin' during the summer of 82'. Classic jam that made all the b-boys and b-girls start breakin' and poppin'!
It just brings back the early sound and feel of hip hop that I miss so much. None of this "bling bling" crap that's going around now. This song gave birth to the entire "electro funk" scene which in turn influenced other styles of dance music like hard house, techno, etc. Add this to your collection of old school CD's and call yourself a true hip hop head!!!

Not really worth it.......2001-08-06

If I had to rate this album on only one of the tracks it would be number 6 and in that case it would get a 5 star rating. On the "Bass in the Planet Mix" we are given a treat from someone who is truly a standout in their field, Magic Mike. The other tracks are dry and out of touch with the traditional Planet Rock feel we are used to. I believe that Magic Mike almost takes the song to another level. 808 probably doesn't have any business touching this song nor do any of the other artists who serve up their humble offerings here. Of course, we are given the original version on the first track but outside of that the only other reason to buy this disc is Magic Mike's cut.

Stop! Stop that Music!.......2001-07-17

I have an extensive collection of music similar to this particular type of sound, however, I was largely disappointed when I heard this CD. I listen to... regularly and after I listened to Planet Rock, I bought it. This is not the tune Swedish Egil is spinning, nor ANYTHING like it. This CD is intrusive compared to today's techno sounds. Perhaps just ahead of its time then, it's beyond its time now. All of the songs are the same bad song, just louder. It doesn't carry you away, it sends you away...

great and unmatched.......2001-07-10

i have owned this cd for some time now and i still listen to it from time to time a must have if you like old school.
