“Project X” album sets high standard in movie sound tracks

Right behind Bruce Springsteen’s album “Wrecking Ball” and Adele’s  “21,” the sound track album for “Project X,” a movie about a teenager’s house party that gets completely out of control, is crashing the party and taking the position for number three on the Billboard Top 200.

Featuring popular artists such as Kid Cudi and Far East Movement, the album provides a great variety of songs, from techno to rap, that would add an ultimate party playlist to anyone’s iPod. Every song has a get-up-and-dance feel.

The disc opens with “Trouble on My Mind” by Pusha T, a standard hip-hop song. Keeping the energy up, it provides various remixes such as A-Trak’s versions of “Ray Ban Vision” and “Heads Will Roll,” and they did an amazing job with them, skillfully transforming the original songs into full-blast techno tracks. Bringing some old school presence to the album are artists Nas, Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre. And, of course, no party is complete without Steve Aoki’s remix of “Pursuit of Happiness.”

Overall, the album was a success and worth the purchase. It is available on iTunes or CD, with 17,000 copies sold in its debut launch.
