What Was She Thinking?:
She's already one of my FAVOURITE up-and-coming songstresses, and although I'm OBSCENELY late on this one, this song is absolutely amazing and has been burning up my playlists for quite a while now. One Hot Pleasure is the brand new single from Erika Jayne, the first on her own "Pretty Mess Records" and it's an amazing move away from her previous sound, whilst still holding all the best elements. The video above is also pretty fantastic! You can pick up the track here, I'd love to know your thoughts, you can pick the track up on iTunes here

First up we have the One Hot Pleasure (Original Radio Edit), with it's thumping, oscillating electronic bass-beat, amazingly seductive gloriously awesome vocal from Erika, fabulously dancey bridge and amazingly awesome bridge...It's quite the thumper that I definitely enjoy - Hard not to adore actually. Then comes the Video Version, which is the above version, just with an EVEN MORE INSANELY AMAZING interlude -> Impossible not to adore! Then comes the Extended Version, which, although a more than fun listen, takes the track a little long for my liking, and it's much better just suited at a tight, uptempo, intense, thumping dance anthem, rather then drawn out...The 8 and a half minute Dave Aude Remix takes the track into intense, darker, amazingly bassy, kinda more tribal territory that works rather well. I quite enjoy it. Again, just a bit long for my liking, 

The 7 minute Ralphi Rosario Club Remix is a fun one which develops upon, seemingly, the sound of the previous mix, and the original to create a spacey, dancey, sophisticated, synthy anthem with a great vibe that I do rather enjoy, amazing breakdown too. The Sultan & Ned Shepard One Hot Remix comes along next and takes a little longer to get wound up, but when it does, I adore it - Love the use of the "piston" sound that made the original, and amazing build-up makes for one fantastic listen. The amazing bassline and gorgeous synthy nature of the track is impossible not to adore as well. A little long for my liking, but hey, there's worse things? Then comes the, as its name suggests, Dirtyloud Vocal Remix, which takes the original, and lays it over an intense, glitchy, electronic, synthy,  thumping beat which suits the track awesomely. A mix that I ADORE! Great build-up/breakdown too. Then comes the closer, the slower DJ Mr. White Remix which pairs the track over a deep, heavy beat, and an amazing set of synths which I most definitely enjoy. Some great claps and synths, and one HUGE breakdown are also a bonus that make for one awesome mix. Great way to end the mix CD.
