ABC Kids Pop Party Mix CD

Every generation has its own distinctive sound and style - and for today’s youngsters, dance music is the only sound they want to hear.

Whether it’s a funky new version of an old classic, or a brand new song that speaks to the hearts and minds of twenty-first century youngsters, music is all-important.

And for today’s kids - who seem permanently attached to their iPods or MP3 players - being wired definitely means being cool.

But finding the right music for that in-between age group - the eight to 14 year olds - can be difficult, particularly in these days of soft-core pop videos. Parents want to ensure their children are listening to music that’s appropriate to their age group and that won’t affect them adversely.

Now ABC Kids have come to the rescue with the ultimate collection of sensational music for pre-teens, tweens and teenagers - the bumper Kids’ Pop Party Mix.

Created specially for youngsters by one of Australia’s coolest music production teams, Juice Music, Kids’ Pop Party Mix is the perfect mix of the newest and hottest pop hits and some wonderful versions of pop classics that are always the biggest hits at the school dance.

Recent chart-topping hits featured on Kids’ Pop Party Mix include "Love Generation" and Ashlee Simpson’s "L.O.V.E." (both of which also have bonus Karaoke versions at the end of the album), American Idol Kelly Clarkson’s huge success "Since You’ve Been Gone", "Forever Young", "Don’t Cha" and "Push the Button".

There are some familiar tracks, too - though they’ve been totally transformed with cool, contemporary arrangements and sounds, and will be as fresh and new to the kids of today as they were to their parents.

Huge school dance hits include "Dancing Queen", "Hey Baby", "Macarena", "Check on It", "Celebration", "Blame it on the Boogie" and a very funky version of the theme from "Ghostbusters (Mickael the Turtle)".

Parents can be reassured that all the music on Kids’ Pop Party Mix is fine for kids to listen to, and the stunning production and 18 great songs will ensure kids can’t get enough of this must-have CD. It’s designed to keep them entertained for hours, and to keep any party pumping and moving.
