Summer Is Coming 2025

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.

It's been a whirlwind past few weeks and I'm finally getting around to posting some of my sets! Things kicked off for me back on June 29th at The Cuff for Seattle Pride. I played the closing set on Sunday night and the crowd could not have been more amazing! Thank you so much to the amazing Cuff staff (especially Alfonso Tan, who organized all of this year's incredible talent!), as well as all of the other incredible DJs on this year's lineup. It's always the biggest honor to play in my home town, especially on Pride weekend. 

Soon to come... Part 2 of my Seattle Pride set... followed by my sets at Purgatory in Provincetown from July 3rd and at BUNKER in DC on July 12th!

"I want to show you what I'm capable of..." - Camisra

This night demonstrates a very different side of me... it's pretty rare that I play a peak hour tech house set and I'm thrilled with how this one turned out. You're either gonna think it's the best set I've ever played... or just feel that it's not what you expected from me. Either way... I'm super proud of it. Put it on at the afties (lock the doors, lower the blinds, fire up the smoke machine... you know the drill!)...and go to work.

Despite the thunderstorm at the start of the night, the crowd in Provincetown turned out strong on the night before the 4th of July. A major thanks to Steve Azar, Mike Akerman, and Matt Acevedo for taking such good care of me and welcoming me to Gifford House & Purgatory for the first time! Chris Cruse was a hard act to follow from the night before, but I hope I did the town proper.

For those who read my long-winded captions to the end, thank you for indulging me. I'd love to hear your thoughts on this set in the comments.

DJ Andrew Hilton - Warwick's Bucks Fizz Mix

It's been a hot boy summer and there was certainly no exception last month at BUNKER in DC for its BURNING UP Disco Party! I always love playing for my friends at BUNKER and I had so much fun putting this set together - I think there are at least 5 different tracks in here sampling "Love Sensation"! (so see if you can find 'em all!.... plus, there's "Burning Up" tracks from Cevin Fisher, Kylie Minogue... if that burning sensation is involved, you're gonna hear it here!)... this set is a 5-1/2 journey, with things moving from warm-up into high-energy party mode at around the 75-min mark. The "hot stuff" from Part 2 will be coming next week!

8/3/25 SUⓇREAL : MORABITO Part 2 of 3 (Fire Island Pines) 

After the fabulous Pines Party Weekend officially ends, in the early evening of Sunday, August 3rd, there actually is one more chance to dance the night away. Now in its eighth year, the annual last party helmed by yours truly has become a Fire Island tradition in its own right. This happens to be my favorite weekend of the year, and together with my other signature event on Labor Day Sundays, it is one of my most treasured nights to play.

Part 2, The Middle… 

Enjoy!

8/3/25 SUⓇREAL : MORABITO Part 2 of 3 (Fire Island Pines)

I had such a great night in my former home town Portland recently playing this late summer set at The Get Down for BRÜT. Feeling post-Burning Man inspired, I delivered a set that's truly emblematic of where my sound is heading these days. (more similar to what you heard in my PTown/Gifford House set back in July)

Learning the art of opening takes years and the first hour of this set is a true warm-up to welcome the crowd and slowly start filling the dance floor. DJ's should never start the night at an 11 and I have great honor & respect for the slow build and the long journey; music that weaves and tells a story over the course of the night. You'll hear a transition about an hour in when the crowd starts to usher in and the night really begins. From there on out, it's 90-minutes of tech house heaven. 

I've been going a bit acapella crazy recently and this night was no exception. I had a lot of fun playing several tracks for the first time including Adam Ten's "Just Kidding" (layering Shawnee Taylor's "Live Your Life" vocals over), N2N's new track "Naked," Vinter's "Space Pump," BLOND:ISH's new "Don't Cha" remix from The Pussycat Dolls, and my friend Simon Harrison's new original "Find Me On The Dance Floor" (also with a special acapella layered over!) 

I hope you enjoy this set... please repost, share, and say something in the comments if you do!

Fred Again X Skepta X Ciara - Victory Step (Hoffi Bootleg)

There was a time when memories had a heartbeat.
When love could be touched, before it was uploaded into the ether.

Now only fragments remain, pulses trapped in wires, whispers echoing through broken code.

Circuits in Silence drifts through that liminal space where emotion becomes electricity.
It breathes in slow motion, analog warmth against digital cold, longing wrapped in reverb.
The voice is distant, dissolving, a ghost in the current calling from somewhere between loss and infinity.

As the rhythm unfolds, time bends. Each beat stretches into eternity, each silence hums with memory.

It is a signal for the soul, a requiem for connections that never fully die.

Somewhere beyond the neon rain, the bass keeps going...
because even in silence, the circuits remember.

Grafenberg – Circuits in Silence
Cosmic Slow Techno · 2025

A slow descent into emotion suspended in time.
Analog warmth, digital cold, and the memory of love preserved in code.

Lyrics:
I called your name in empty rooms,
The echo fades, but not the wound.
Your shadow sleeps beneath my skin,
I lose you over and over again.

My circuits ache, my soul shuts down,
You're everywhere, you're not around.
Dancing alone in neon rain,
This beat can’t drown the silent pain.

I saved your voice in broken code,
But playback hurts more than I’m told.
No touch, no face, just phantom light,
A love erased in endless night.

I remember...
but you’re gone...
and still,
the bass keeps going.

LA-based DJ Blacklow (Jeremy Blacklow) grew up on the dance floors of New York City inspired by the house music of the '90s, inspired by the sounds of Junior Vasquez, Danny Tenaglia, Frankie Knuckles, and Peter Rauhofer. In 2011, Blacklow finally listened to friends' advice and took his love of music to the next level, playing bars, clubs & events throughout Southern California, before becoming a successful DJ and producer who now tours the world.

Blacklow's sound is a mix of classic house, tech house, progressive house, future house, and disco. His trademark sound is filled with uplifting high energy and soaring vocals. He seamlessly blends the old school and the new to create an incredible momentum-building dance floor journey on every outing. A standard Blacklow set includes a heavy dose of throwbacks and classics, mixed with the latest tracks drawn from a wide array of inspirations.

Blacklow’s production work includes several singles and remixes with his Texas-based production partner of the past five years, Stephen Jusko. Their first collaboration, a remix of Katy Perry’s “Never Really Over,” caught the ear of Perry’s manager, who gave them the official studio stems for her next single, “Small Talk,” which quickly became their most downloaded and listened to single ever. Their Chappell Roan remixes - which include their viral remix of “Pink Pony Club,” an Island/Universal commissioned remix of “Super Graphic Ultra Modern Girl,” and a tech-house driven take on “Hot To Go,” are currently powering dance floors around the world. Together, Blacklow and Jusko have also remixed singles by Lady Gaga (“Rain On Me”), Kesha (“Raising Hell,” “Stronger”), P!nk (“Never Gonna Not Dance Again,” “Just Like A Pill”), Alanis Morrisette (“You Oughta Know”), Zai (“Clouds”), Debby Holiday (“Love & Beats”) and more. 

In December 2020, Blacklow and Jusko put out their first single together, a cover of the ‘80s Scandal anthem, “The Warrior” with vocals by Audrey Callahan on Queen House Music, which quickly soared to the top of Beatport’s Top 100 Big Room charts. Two complete remix packages followed in January and February 2021. They followed it up in the fall of 2021 with a cover from Callahan of Pat Benatar’s “Shadows of the Night,” with remixes that served as true gay anthems across the globe during the fall of ‘21 and winter of ‘22. 

In the summer of 2022, Blacklow and Jusko collaborated on a cover of “Believe It Or Not” (the theme song from “The Greatest American Hero”) with vocalist Brian Kent, which was released on Swishcraft Music. And in June 2023, the dynamic duo released their first Original track together on Swishcraft, an LGBTQ anthem titled “Love Lift Me Up,” featuring vocals from the incomparable Debby Holiday.  

Recent 2024 remixes include his viral mashup of Beyoncé’s “Texas Hold ‘Em,” Zhana’s update of “Looking For A New Love,” Kent’s “Carry Your Light,” and “Gym Crush” from Broadway stars Nick Burroughs and Alex Newell. A soon-to-be-released new remix with Sapphira Crystal from "RuPaul’s Drag Race" is on its way in early 2025.

Other Blacklow high-energy remixes include “To Be Able To Love” (with George Figares feat. Brenda Reed, Swishcraft), Carly Rae Jepsen’s “Cut To The Feeling,” and “Party For One” (with Hector Fonseca), “Beautiful Trauma” (P!nk), “Brave” (Sara Bareilles),  Bo$$ (Fifth Harmony), two explosive remixes of Ellie Goulding’s “Flux,” and the tracks “Fierce,” “Faces” and “Better Days” from NYC-based singer Mila Jam.
 
With so much momentum behind him, Blacklow has several exciting gigs and productions in store for 2025 and beyond. Hard at work on several new projects, Blacklow remains one of the most exciting DJ/producers on the scene today.
