Past Becomes Future doesnt simply recreate timeless hits, so indelibly etched, on our radio-saturated brains, it updates them! Its an eclectic fusion of urban and electronic sounds and styles with house, techno, trance, drum & bass, and even hip hop, essentially redefining the very concept of the cover song.

Featuring songs by Corey Hart, Prince, Bryan Ferry, Al Green, ABBA, David Bowie, Pet Shop Boys, Kajagoogoo, and The Police, undoubtedly, there is something for all types of progressive pop music lovers here.

Pro Soul painstakingly chose songs that were well suited to these styles of music, and hadn't already been remixed to death.
