Excellent mix! Love the Hot Chip remix ❤️🔥

this fucker right here.  what is this track?!

Prog In My Throat is a mix that means a lot to me, I mixed it over and over and waited until the progression of songs was perfect before I posted this up. The progressive/melodic tracks of today are starting to peak my interest and it's bringing me back to styles I used to play in my early DJ days so I had to pay homage to the sound. The last year I had lost four souls in my life that meant something to me. At the beginning of the year I had lost three friends all within a month or so, I didn't know how to process it and was shocked for some time. These friends were pivotal in my DJ/rave life and the emotions took a toll, and as I was also going through some health issues myself and trying to navigate those waters I knew I needed to take a step back from doing festivals last summer for the year, and only do local gigs and just slow down a bit. Speed forward to the end of the year and I lost my mother suddenly due to stage four cancer. When we had found out her diagnosis I kind of started the grieving process already and also for my other fallen friends and started working on this mix. I have been an emotional being and if you can't tell I put it into my mixes and the songs I collect. Naturally I just think a lil darker, a lil more pessimistic, darker songs resonate within my soul, and it's great for the dancefloor. When making this mix I teared up at times and got emotional, thinking of my lost friends and mom, but I also knew that this moody dark groovy mix would make them all so proud of me. If you've ever lost someone you know that sometimes listening to their favorite tunes, ones that remind you of them or just certain albums can really make you feel something. Music has always been that for me, it's the best way I can get out my pent up energy and put it into something creative and artistic like this. So Prog In My Throat is dedicated to my lost souls, of this year and previous. It's not just sad songs but a mix that evokes a feeling within me and I hope it does for someone else too. I hope you can appreciate it and the grooviness that this mix brought out. And if I can say one more thing, don't forget to tell the ones you care about that you love them before you can't anymore. <3
