Vibes

I was telling DJ Michael Rackley that I wanted to make a Pride Month mix - but that somehow I wanted to put a new spin on the concept, a new twist. 

From that vague thought and him hearing me out, a week later, I have a new mix.

It starts with a few clouds, but by the third track, they blow away and the sun comes out.  I think it is a fundamentally happy mix to help you celebrate this month.

---- 

I'm not sure I can precisely define "pride", but I know that being free is part of it - the knowledge of who you are, the courage and space to express it, as well as the confidence to allow and support others in their freedom.

This mix is about freedom.  It starts with struggling to be free.  From there, we deal with having to let another be free, and then wishing for freedom.  The mood moves up to feeling free, pleading for freedom, and then appreciating it; and rises again to revel in it. It ends with the ultimate - the freedom to spread our wings and take flight.

May you all have the insight and courage this Pride Month to be who you truly are.

This mix is dedicated to Michael Rackley for his friendship, and his support in my learning the craft.

Free - A Pride 2023 Mix - Happy Vocal House/Dance

Just like the title says - this is a big bundle of joy and happiness!

I start easy with three groovy tracks, and land gently with three soft tunes, but in between, it's a whole lot of sunshine.

This set is from the fifth Flag Alley event in San Francisco - an event by flaggers, for flaggers (and those that love them!).  

If you would like to know a little more about flag dancing, you can see a bit of video from the event here: https://www.facebook.com/1637960689/videos/788493689489572/

Joy and Happiness - Flag Alley 5 - Happy Vocal House

Over an hour of your favourite classic disco tunes, re-energised.

Fabulously Nu Disco

A happy and uplifting mix for Pride 2024! 

I've got classics as well as new tracks, all focussed on celebration and being the best we can be.

----

Have you ever told someone "you can do it!"?

Or maybe "you got this!"? 

And you aren't just being nice -  because you know them, you *know* it's true.

You have faith in them.

My Pride mix last year revolved around being free - that freedom to express ourselves, to be ourselves, is an essential component of pride.

This year's mix explores another aspect of Pride: faith.

Whether you call it belief, or trust, or faith, it is also an essential component of pride.  

I know the challenges in my life would have been difficult or impossible to overcome without the faith that my close friends and husband have shown in me.

In countless ways, faith not only sustains our relationships, but also our community, and gives us hope and optimism for the future.  It enables us to not only survive, but to thrive in the face of uncertainty and adversity.

This mix is dedicated to my husband, Dave, who has always shown faith in me.

So my wish for all of you this Pride is this: may you always have all the faith you need from others, exactly when you need it.

Peace, love, joy.

Faith - A Pride 2024 Mix - Happy Vocal House/Dance

For something a little different, this mix is an deliberate visit to something far more vocal house driven. It starts on a chilled take on some huge singalong hits new and old, evolving in to higher energy, driving beats and relying less on a full vocal.

Oscar's World Famous T-Dance - Live Set - March 2, 2025

Hey y’all! It’s almost summertime, and although things may feel tough in the world right now, music is always there to get us through the hard times. 

I had a lot of fun whipping up this May ‘cast, which features a few of my recent private edits, along with Stephen and me’s remix of “Get Your Flowers,” from “Drag Race” star Sapphira Crystal, which is releasing later this month! We went in a fun, high-energy “Purple Disco” direction with this one, and it’s been crushing it on dance floors recently!

I hope you enjoy this journey into sonic joy. And if you feel inspired, please repost and share. I’ll see you in Atlanta soon. And remember always... #HouseIsAFeeling

House Is A Feeling (Vol. 19 | May 2k25)

Another happy and uplifting mix for Pride 2025! 

I've included new tracks as well as some remixes I love of the classics.  I hope this mix lifts your hearts and brings you joy during this Pride season.

Part of Pride is rising above the situations that challenge us: with courage, calm, determination, tolerance, inclusiveness, and love.

With a vision of something different and better.

And, of course, with joy.

So my wish for all of you this Pride is this: may you always have the courage to rise above your situation, exactly when you need it.

Feelings For You

San Francisco-based DJ and producer.

My biggest love is happy, t-dance vocals, but I also play all sorts of house - funky, organic, progressive and deep.  I live in San Francisco, and I love my city immensely - the land, the buildings, the people, the music, and the art!  I also dye silk dance flags, and have been known to flag dance now and again.  

If you'd prefer a WAV of any of my remixes, just send me a message!
