Compass Productions Karaoke Introduction

This section refers to three disc labels from Compass Productions Karaoke. These labels are Five Star, Lucky Star and House Party Karaoke (see further info below).

We shouted for information about these collections and got many lists of discs and tracks to collate.

Indeed, all those Karaoke Jockeys (KJs) who sent us their lists used the same numbering system. So, cataloguing was pretty easy for these collections.

We also compiled a songbook available to download for the whole series.

The individual karaoke labels from Compass Productions are unique. Therefore, we have a downloadable songbook for each one as well.

Compass Productions Karaoke Series:

Once again, there are three individual series from Compass Productions. With this in mind, we shall list them separately for clarity.

While most people in the karaoke world refer to the individual labels below, the parent company is Compass Productions. Indeed, hardly anyone would use the parent company’s name. Indeed, hardly anyone would use the parent company’s name. Be that as it may, it is the manufacturer that interests us. That is so that we can avoid duplication and for rating purposes.

House Party Karaoke Series

As you can see, there are quite a few gaps in the House Party Karaoke collection. Indeed, the broken sequence is quite noticeable.

We have not seen any evidence to suggest that there are other CDGs in this series, so if you know of any, let us know, and we can amend our lists accordingly.

For example, HPK4xx is missing altogether. If you know why, let us know or comment in the section below.

Five Star Karaoke Series

Five Star Karaoke Logo 5.

To begin with, we shall list the Five Star karaoke discs that all have 16 tracks but are 8+8. This means they have eight guide tracks preceded by eight non-vocal tracks of the same song. Because of this, there are only eight unique songs per disc.

Some people love karaoke discs with guide-vocal tracks because they can learn new songs this way. But, some people classify them as a waste of space. That is a matter of opinion, of course. Indeed, it’s how they suit your requirements that counts.

Five Star Karaoke Discs

To clarify, here is a list of the Five Star Karaoke discs. Furthermore, their prefix numbers are the same as they would appear in a karaoke jockey’s songbook:

  • FSK1-01
  • FSK1-02
  • FSK1-03
  • FSK1-04
  • FSK1-05
  • FSK1-06
  • FSK1-07
  • FSK1-08
  • FSK1-09
  • FSK1-10
  • FSK1-11
  • FSK1-12
  • FSK1-13
  • FSK1-15
  • FSK1-16
  • FSK1-18
  • FSK1-19
  • FSK1-20
  • FSK1-21
  • FSK1-22
  • FSK1-23
  • FSK1-24
  • FSK2-14
  • FSK2-17
  • FSK3-25
  • FSK3-26
  • FSK4-27

  • FSK4-32
  • FSK4-33
  • FSK4-34

Again, you will see many inconsistencies in the list of discs in the Five Star Karaoke series above. However, we don’t yet know if these gaps are intentional. The ‘missing’ CDGs may exist, but after much searching, we can’t find any evidence anywhere.

Lucky Star Karaoke Series

The following series by Lucky Star Karaoke also has 16 tracks. But, unlike their cousins at Five Star Karaoke above, who have guide vocal tracks, these Lucky Star discs don’t. Neither one is making any karaoke at this time, of course.

Lucky Star Karaoke Discs (LKY1-LKY4)

  • LKY1
  • LKY2
  • LKY2-11
  • LKY2-12
  • LKY2-13
  • LKY3
  • LKY3-14
  • LKY4
  • LKY4-19
  • LKY4-20

Lucky Star Karaoke Discs (LKY5-LKY8)

  • LKY5
  • LKY6
  • LKY7
  • LKY8

The disc ID numbers (prefixes) seem to be slightly chaotic. But there may be other discs in this series that will fill the gaps. So, if you know of any other discs in the Lucky Star Karaoke series, please let us know or leave a comment below.

Compass Productions Karaoke Review

We are reviewing discs from this karaoke company as a whole. Therefore, any karaoke track from any disc will suffice. Indeed, they should all perform similarly. However, we shall say so if we find any differences between the labels.

What we found was what we thought. Apart from the splash screens, the other on-screen graphics are the same. The background is a shade of blue, with the on-screen lyrics being white. They turn orange once they start syncing with the music.

Each of the labels from Compass Productions does indeed have individual splash screens. Not only that, but in some cases, two or three. Of course, these show the name of the karaoke label. Then, they have the song title and artist. Some may have different screens showing the key and song length.

The choice of backing music on our samples showed that the company had good taste. However, on some occasions, the on-screen lyrics lagged slightly. They should be on time, or slightly ahead, if anything.

Compass Productions Karaoke Song Sample

Although we may use numerous songs for the review, we only provide one sample video to represent the label. So, the song sample for our video presentation is FSK1-03-01 – No Doubt – Don’t Speak.

Our Verdict

  • On-screen Lyrics: 3.5
  • Music Content: 4.5
  • Splash Screen, Graphics, Video: 3.5
  • Cover Art: 4.5
  • Overall Average: 4
  • Music And Lyrics Average: 4

We gave this collection 4 out of 5 in the rating system below. You can also vote for these, even if you don’t have the discs or tracks. Indeed, all you need to do is watch our presentation video above and judge that.

Desirability Factor

Plenty of Compass CDGs exist, and we can’t fault them too much. Therefore, grab them while you can because they will not disappoint. They are suitable for live gigs and home use as well. We recommend them, do you?

In Summary: The Compass Productions Karaoke Labels

The splash screens for Five Star, Lucky Star, and House Party Karaoke are different. That is great because we love the variations. They have their own identity, but it is also clear that these labels are from one karaoke producer.

Of course, the keen karaoke collector will collect these regardless. However, the casual collector on a tight budget should be content with these, as they are suitable for gigging and home use. Indeed, the staff at Karaoke Info recommend them!
