Biography

Biography by Stewart Mason
Favoring a naughty schoolboy look that makes him seem even younger than his already tender years (22 when his first major-label album was released), Scottish artist, producer, and remixer Calvin Harris has a similarly youthful and forward-looking approach to his music. Skipping the usual apprenticeship in the clubs or on indie labels, Harris went from posting his ... Read more in Amazon's Calvin Harris Store

5.0 out of 5 stars Love it! 4 Sep 2009
By Louisa
Format:Audio CD
If you are considering buying this album because you've heard his singles I'm Not Alone, Dance Wiv Me and Ready For The Weekend and liked them, you should definitely buy this because the rest of the album is just as good, if not better, than those singles! Also, if you like his older songs, buy Ready For The Weekend - it's his best album by far.
It's very catchy as per usual for his songs, all the songs are great (there isn't one song on the whole album that I don't like) and the music is so good you'll find yourself humming it all day. Calvin has definitely not let us down (I was waiting for this album to come out ever since I first discovered him!) and I hope any albums he releases in the future will be as good and fun as this one!

5.0 out of 5 stars Sheer fabtastic disco dancing dance music!!! 2 Sep 2009
By Kian
Format:Audio CD
After playing this album several times I couldn't help thinking how catching the songs were. Then I suddenly realised it was Calvin Harris, the lyrics are more sophisticated (as dance music goes!) the synthesisers sound more loud, the beats more catchier than his first album. Unlike "I created Disco" which had maybe 2 or 3 decent tracks...this is far superior. This is not a second album screaming to be like the first, its clearly better but it needs to grow on you...then its repeat repeat repeat! (even if its the same track again! again!) ...the first track right through kicks off with lyrics ..."these are the good times in your life so put a smile on your face...." Usually if a album is half decent there are a good half dozen tracks this is sheer certain one of them. Mr Harris has a habit of producing music that is catchy and makes you want to dance and if your like me then go and get yourself a copy! ....Cheers Calvin son!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Cool as a disco cucumber 27 Aug 2009
Format:Audio CD
I've had this CD for a week and its awesome! Been played everyday at work and its a solid fixture on the radio at work. I really liked his 1st album and thought many of his songs were pretty cool. I saw this in Asda for £7 (hope i dont get chucked off amazon for sayin that!) and thought i'd gotta buy it. It is a great CD - the collaboration wiv Dizzee Rascal ,the song from the coca cola AD (yea yea yea la la la) and his singles ready for the weekend, i'm not alone and Flashback. Its an electro mental fused CD. oh yea he uses a sax (i think, on the 1st track) and the start of Blue sounds like a boy band but then goes all electro clash dash n mash. Great CD well worth it

3.0 out of 5 stars ok...... 11 Sep 2009
Format:Audio CD
Calvin isn't a very good singer, but when he sings... I DIG IT! Next time I go to the shops i'm gonna walk to the beat of the songs, but don't think the walk will be as funky as when i did it with the first album.

4.0 out of 5 stars .....Good Stuff ! 18 Aug 2009
Format:Audio CD
This was an eagerly anticipated album for me, plenty of hype and could easily have been a huge disappointment ..... fortunately it wasn't ! It really warrants 4 and a half stars. Superbly produced by possibly one of the most in demand producers at the moment and puts my faith back in the British dance music scene right now. Each track seems to have its own special quality which can be enjoyed at home or on the dancefloors alike ! With already three huge singles from this album (if you include Dance Wiv Me feat. Dizzee Rascal), you feel like any of the tracks could be potential future singles ...... in particular my favourites being 'The Rain', 'Flashback' and the stunning 'Yeah Yeah Yeah La La La', the latter that some may recognise from a certain Soft Drinks advert ! Anyone reading this who has a even a slight interest in an 'Electronic' sound will NOT be disappointed - essential !!! It's only been on the shelves for two days ..... but I can't wait for more material from Calvin ......... Top Drawer !!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Review for the week-end 17 Aug 2009
By Lou
Format:Audio CD
As catchy and as toe-tappingly brilliant as his debut album 'I Created Disco', and with slightly more depth than its predecessor (only slightly more, it is a Calvin Harris album after all) it is certainly worth its price tag. Every track will be lodged into your brain within the first listen. Tracks such as; 'The Rain', the album track 'Ready for the week-end' and 'Stars Come Out', represent classic 'Sonic the Hedgehog' esque Calvin Harris. On the other hand, there are a few tracks on this album with a different flavour, most noteable are 'Worst Day' and '5iliconeator' Perhaps a change of direction for the Dumfries born Harris. But for now I suppose he'll just have to be the fly eyed king of electro-synth pop.

4.0 out of 5 stars A grown up Mr Harris! 18 Aug 2009
Format:Audio CD
So, Calvin's new album - a definate improvement on I Created Disco. Its more grown up with a bigger, fuller sounding album.

Calvin's really worked on vocals on this album, he's done a great jobs with his and others vocals. Lots of harmony work and they sound fresh and pure. The 5th Track "Blue" is a prime example of his great work on his vocal harmonies. - lovely.

The album opens up with "The Rain". A feel good summer driving tune which is a brilliant intro and warm up to "Ready for the Weekend", his current radio smash hit which again is a feel good, electrotastic sythtastic song!

On from there almost every track is a sunny head bopping car driving joy. I've listened to the album 3 times now and it grows everytime.

The album in general is a job well done. I'd recommend it to anyone who likes a wide variety of Dance and the electro side of pop.
8/10

3.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as the last album
I loved 'I Created Disco', it was something fresh, quirky and fun. Ready for the weekend seems more commercial, almost cheesy in places. Still worth a listen though.
