Enter To Win - Toucan Cove CD Six Pack

Written by A.L. Harper
Published September 27, 2006

DJ driven ambient, dance, and electro-pop has been on the rise and moving into mainstream music in recent years. Fatboy Slim, The Chemical Brothers, Royksopp, Mylo, and Faithless are just a few of the better known names. Those are all male DJs but women have had a growing influence in the realm of DJ dance, too.

Now Toucan Cove Entertainment — home to an eclectic gathering of artists and genres, from pop and rock, to hip-hop and electronica -- are offering Blogcritics readers the chance to win one of three fantastic six CD packs. This collection is for fans of electronica and all six CDs feature women in the DJ, producer, writer or vocalist roles. The exciting CD six pack includes the following CDs:

Femmes FatalesFEMMES FATALES showcases twelve original and/or exclusive tracks by twelve female DJ/producer/vocalists, including club hit "100 Stories" by Andrea Burns. With styles ranging from energetic trance, circuit, and progressive house to breaks and drum 'n' bass, the album elevates the position of women in the field (previously dominated by men) and illustrates the prowess and diversity they bring to the (turn) table.

GROOVE COVERAGE is the multi-platinum Euro Dance brainchild of DJ Novus and vocalist Mell. Having sold more than 800,000 singles and albums worldwide, the album contains three Top 20 chart hits — "She," "Runaway," and Top 10 single "The End" — as well as an explosive version of Alice Cooper's "Poison," which reached the Top 20 at Billboard.

SylverSYLVER is vocalist Silvy De Bie and top club DJ, keyboard player and writer Wout van Dessel. Nighttime Calls represents Sylver's third full-length album and first U.S. release. While this album showcases the evolution of their collaborative songwriting with the heartfelt introspection of "Who am I?" and "Changed," it also re-affirms their allegiance to anthemic floor-fillers by delivering "Love is an Angel" (a top 10 smash,) the bump 'n' grind of "Make It," the electro-funk two-step of "Fallin'," and "Turn the Tide," a mega hit from their Little Things album and U.S.-only bonus cut!
