Anybody know anything about Xtreme Karaoke? Are they any good and is there anything on the company?

They appear to be a "compilation" brand. I got one song from them off of Selectatrack Custom and thought they were great. Then I ordered another one and thought, "What the heck?" Paid better attention and the good song appeared to actually be a Sound Choice and the other song was a Country Karaoke Classics. So I guess you take your chances on them.

Could be. But i seem to remember that they claimed to use real musicians for their Karaoke and not tin pan drum machines and such. Plus their versions are not like any others i've heard. But so far, their stuff's not bad. One example is a Kiss collection i got from them. The versions of old Kiss classics from Chartbuster or Soundchoice are good but bland, similar to the first three Kiss albums when compared to Kiss Alive!. The Xtreme Karaoke versions of these songs, rock in comparison. Like any other manufacturer, they have some that's kinda.......EH! But overall, i give them a B+ for now. I've ordered more from them, and i'll give an overall review of them after i hear and sing with them.

A lot of what I have gotten from them is legends stuff that they put their brand on.

And more importantly (and this caught me out when I failed to replace a scatched disc) they are no longer in production. In my opinon, based on a couple of their later discs, they are an amalgamation of other brands which my explain my first sentence.

I've found what you guys are sayin' is true. Seems to be mostly Legend Type stuff. Some good, some bad like everything else. Thanks for your input.

I purchased 3 Xtreme Artist Series discs. After listening to all tracks I will refer to them as Xtreme Crap Karaoke. Aside from the error filled cover and wrong track names on the disc, there were artifacts (bootlegged?) on the screen and the overall quality sucks (no lead in, strange his/her color graphics, song reproduction). Diamond in the ruff? Maybe. But don't expect to find in on the Neil Diamond XTA 37 disc or Buble/Rod Stewart XTA 32 or Simon & Garfunkel XTA 109 (actually not that bad except every track has lead vocals singing throughout. Might as well just play the real thing and sing along with Simon and Art). Wont buy any more.
