Here's a mix I put together featuring songs from the 90s  I opened up with arguably the most important song of the decade as it completely changed music as we knew it.  Overnight, Nirvana made all the glam rock bands look like poseurs and they ushered in an entire new genre and attitude. The mix out of this isn't great but it's hard to mix live drummers (not knocking Dave Grohl!)  After that I fall into a smooth (mostly) mix of some of my favorite club favorites from the decade.  The energy peaks just past the half hour mark then I end with some of the hip hops songs from the 90s.  

I squeezed 28 songs into this 45 minute mix by the way so if there's something you don't like, keep listening, it'll be over soon.

Enjoy the mix!

Yo DJ Pump This Party - 90s Mix

Here's a set I spun at Alyssa and Scott's wedding.   They gave me a ton of Hip Hop and R&B requests.  I'd done a short set early in the night but this was the long set after cake cutting.  I'm not great at mixing stuff in the 90-100 BPM range (I'm more of 120-130 guy) so I'm pretty proud of this.  

I usually don't like uploading live mixes because the shout outs and just whatever I say on the mic seems a little weird when it's not live (like me singing along to "Yeah" or the missing cell phone announcement I make, ironically during "Hot Line Bling") but I figured I'd give it a try.

Hip Hop And R&B Set Alyssa And Scott September 24

Some of my favorites from the disco era, mixed together as best I can.  Used some original versions and some remixes.  Hope you enjoy

Mike's Haven't Stop Dancing Yet Mix

When an artist dies I'm often moved to make a mix inspired by their songs (which happened WAY too often this year).  This morning,  I started with some George Michael  then stuck with the 80s vibe throughout.

Two things:  By my count there are 11 bands or artists in this mix who passed away this year (when it's a band I mean a prominent member died).   And I don't mean 11 songs (because some artists I play more than one song from).  11 musicians.  Gone.  See if you can spot them all (what a morbid game!)

Also, I'm aware there is one song in this mix from the early 90s.  It very famously samples an 80s song and one of the key members of the band died this year so I thought it fit the theme.  

Here's hoping I'm not inspired to make a similar mix for a very long time!

Have Faith In The Eighties Mix

Here's a set I played at Tammie and James' wedding.  They wanted a good mix of dance music with some EDM sprinkled in.  They were very happy at the end of the night so I guess I did my job!

Dance Set From Tammie And James

I got to do a lot of mixing at Ed and Michelle's wedding.  Here's the first 50 minutes after dinner.  Just came out with some of their requests, dance floor filled and we went from there,  This crowd was awesome and they responded to everything!  I loved this wedding!

After Dinner Set At Ed And Michelle's Wedding

Had the pleasure of MCing and DJing my kid brother's Autism Awareness fundraiser.  Here's the rock heavy set I played to open the day.  I'd heard "I'm In The Mood for a Melody" on the radio on my drive in to Queens and had to open with it.

Rock Set From Autism Awareness Fundraiser

Here's a fun set I spun at  recent wedding.  All requests from the bride and groom and their guests.  Some DJs loathe requests because they "know what works."  I'd rather accommodate my client's and play what they want to hear.  Of course it takes skill to make it all come together.  I'm proud of how this turned out and the fact that their dance floor was packed the whole time

Pre - Dinner Set At Andy And Linda's Wedding

Working with this couple was such a thrill.  Their entire wedding was off the chain.  Here's the last hour plus.  I'm coming out of The Cupid Shuffle and into Harlem Shake (which I haven't played forever)  Most of these choices were on Mark and Noelle's playlist BTW.  You'll hear me do a "no rain" chant at one point - the wedding was in their backyard and it was starting to drizzle a bit but Mother Nature heard us and held off.  It was a great night all around!

Final Hour For Mark And Noelle

Inspired by a set I spun Friday night at Joe and Dawn's wedding here's a half hour of late 80s Freestyle.  Zip up the Cavaricci's and get ready to party!

33 80s hits jammed into 80 minutes.  Enjoy!

Top Songs April 2019

I spun for a charity event Casino Night last night.  No dance floor and no dancing expecting.  But I remembered something Jon Taffer said at Mobile Beat a few years ago.  He said (and I'm paraphrasing) "there is no such thing as background music.  There is lower volume music but no background music."  I channeled that philosophy and strived for a fun, sing alongable set and it worked.  Got tons of compliments and gave away a few cards as well.  This is a classic rock heavy set which played to the mostly baby boomer crowd.

The There Is No Background Music Set

I made a goal for myself to make a “New Music Mix” every month this year. But as I prepped for May I realized the pop and dance charts haven’t changed much in 4 weeks so I decided to do a Top Latin Songs mix instead. All 25 of these tracks that are currently trending on the Latin charts. Some are beat mixed, some slammed, and some simply segued.  

Enjoy this muy caliente set.

Top Latin Songs May 2019

Loved working with this couple and I was psyched their wedding was awesome.  This set is almost all from their request list and it worked GREAT.  Dance floor was jam packed!

New Music Mix July 2019

Late Night Set For Kristina And David

Coming out of dinner I got some people bopping around to Wonderwall and Just a Friend so without saying a word we went right into a dance set.  DIdn't record my microphone channel so you're spared not hearing me count off the two lines dances in here (both the bride's requests

After Dinner For Danielle And Landon

Pretty wild crowd at this one so I could pull off some of these selections.  They were all requests from Jess and Chris and they all went over GREAT!

Top Songs September 2019

I hear people complain that there's no good new dance music coming out and I just don't get it I think there's some great stuff being produced. Just because it's not attacking the charts isn't the artists' fault.

Anyway, here's a set I threw together of some new dance music, all in the 125-130 BPM range.

Enjoy it!

Love One Another New Dance September 2019

After Dinner Dance Set Alyssa And Dom

Came out of dinner with The Electric Slide.  Hit record towards the end (because who wants to hear that song one more time) and this is what followed.  High energy set with some requests mixed in

After Dinner Set For Amanda And Matt

Fun set from a fun wedding.  These were all on the bride and groom's request list and they all worked.  I didn't record my mic channel but that barely made a difference.  I didn't have to say anything to open the dance floor and didn't even turn my mic on till I dropped "Shout" 35 minutes into the set.  Enjoy some great R&B and hip hop

After Dinner Set For Alexis And Michael

All over the map with this set.  Some were my choices, some were Ashley and Joe's requests, and some were from the guests.  All in all I think it flowed well and kept everyone dancing.  I cut it off as the Cupid Shuffle started to spare you from that

After Cake Set For Ashley And Joe

This mix has it all (just like the current pop charts). I started with 2 beautiful ballads that Top 10 then slipped into some newer dance, hip hop and yes, even country.  Check it out and get up to date on some of the top 22 songs that are kicking ass right now
