I made this mix for my friend Dan Balogh (Dak) to highlight some of his great work in the studio. I used five of his tracks in various places throughout the set. The idea behind this mix was to weave his music into the being and essence of motion... to feel the energy of intense rhythm and movement... to listen, think, and dance my way toward the light.

The Being and Essence of Motion (122 BPM)

A house music fan and DJ for many years, I first began buying house and techno records in Glasgow, Scotland, when I was there as an exchange student. Then I returned to Chicago and DJed for about ten years (as DJ Devo), spinning at great clubs all over the city, such as Red No.5, Crobar, Smartbar, Zentra, Soundbar, and of course, a hundred loft, rave, and after-hour parties. Now I live in Louisville, but I still enjoy keeping some good vinyl (and downloads) on rotation. All of the mixes (except the latest, Release the Soul) were made exclusively with records and turntables, even the set I played with CID Inc at Primary in Chicago. Enjoy!
