This cassette set was recorded off the live WFNX broadcast by fellow Spin Cycle regular, Dan a.k.a. Crikit(boy).  Dan has been kind enough to share several of these recordings with the world — and we all owe him a huge thanks! 

In this first mix from July 1999, DJ Tym Ryan plays tracks from the "Torchbearers" compilation released on Risk Records, which included appearances by Liquid Todd and Markus Schulz, among others. DJ Mike Gioscia (@gioscia) recorded all of the voiceover promos, while the Genial Host, Charlie, added the usual mischievous commentary (including a funny rant about Maine).

DJ Tym Ryan - Spin Cycle @ Axis (Boston) - LIVE - 7/2/1999

Behold! Another Spin Cycle mixtape from the archives of fellow friend of Lansdowne Street, Dan a.k.a. Crikit(boy). 

Next up we have DJ Tym Ryan's 60-minute promotional cassette that was distributed in advance Spin Cycle moving next door to Karma in the Summer of 2001. 

This mix is of personal interest to me, as it captures the sound of Spin Cycle as it moved towards a more progressive, big room house sound and away from funkier tech house. It also was recorded just a few months before I had the chance to open for Tym at Karma during Thanksgiving weekend of that same year.

DJ Tym Ryan - Spin Cycle @ Karma (Boston) - PROMO CASSETTE - 7/20/2001

Nothing says "New Year's 2002 in Boston" like Big Jim Murray on the radio imploring you to pay a $40 cover to hear him drop DMX's "Party Up" at Axis.

New Year's 2002 @ Axis (Boston)on WFNX - LIVE - 1/1/2002

The third and final cassette set from Spin Cycle regular, Dan a.k.a. Crikit(boy), was recorded off the live WFNX broadcast in 2001. 

Here we have a late-era Spin Cycle mix with Tym playing progressive house all night long on the Friday before Halloween, 2001. 

Something worth keeping in mind with this mix was that the entire nightlife industry was in flux at this time, as this was just one month removed from the events of 9/11. There were almost daily threats and warnings about public gatherings at shopping malls, concerts, and sporting events — and Lansdowne Street was a major concern as it was where Red Sox fans and night owls would combine en masse behind the Green Monster. Paranoia was at an all-time high — something that I think you can hear in when the host, Jay-son, gets on the mic towards the second part of the mix and has gone from completely competent to completely drunk in less than an hour. Dark times indeed! 

Adding to the chaos, Avalon and Axis had also decided to sort of merge over the summer, creating the "Avaland" party that spanned both clubs and was the reason that Spin Cycle moved next door to 9 Lansdowne, at Karma Club. What may have seemed like a good aughts "super-sizing" concept actually just homogenized nightlife in Boston and made sure that neither club maintained its character. It was not long before the entire block was rezoned to make way for what eventually became House of Blues Boston.

Recorded on Sony MZ-1 Minidisc from air signal radio broadcast on 104.1 WBCN in Boston, MA during the summer of 1999. This aired several days after the festival had ended. I edited out all of the commercials on this recording a long time ago, so that is why there are a few spots where the audio jumps forward. In dust we trust!

Chemical Brothers LIVE @ Woodstock 1999

This week, we have a very special guest mix sent to us from halfway around the world — courtesy of legendary Eurodance deejay BENEDETTO SCUOLAVECCHIO.

Raised on the southern outskirts of Rome during the height of Italo Disco, Benedetto worked his way up the ranks of Italy's hottest nightclubs, beginning as a bartender, lightshow jockey, substitute DJ, and eventually as a resident DJ as the country's taste in music was changing to a more international sound. In the 1990's he made a name for himself by playing the hottest  Eurodance hits to Italy's most exclusive, upscale clientele, at venues such as Ultimo Impero, Baia Imperiale, The East Side, Marabu, and 7Up. He holds a Guinness World Record for having played the 12" promo single of "Rhythm Is A Dancer," by Snap!, 14 times in a row during a DJ set in the summer of 1992.

After building a legion of fans in his home country, Benedetto began touring the top Eurodance venues worldwide throughout the mid-to-late 1990s, including Palacio Gaviria in Madrid, Juliana's in Tokyo, and Boa Café in Toronto. 

Since 2001, Benedetto has taken a step back from the turntables to pursue a quieter passion from his childhood: tree shaping. These days, he passes most of the year sculpting branches into art, from his remote cabin in Ontario, Canada, where he lives with his two rabbits, Graziana and Betsy.

Benedetto is not on social media, and did not elaborate on what else he has been up to during semi-retirement. The email he sent with the mix reads: 

"A collection of my most greatest highlights and memories for me. Away from my many years performing it is now a great time to look back and also enjoy these moments of the dancefloor which have caused many friendships that they lasted the test of times."

Across 110th Street

Back in 2000-2002, I produced a series of progressive house mix CDs for my friends at college. 

For my own amusement, I made liner notes and CD covers for each of them that meticulously parodied the popular Global Underground mix CD series that had taken the world by storm over the past half decade. 

Unlike the actual GU series that would transport the listener to an exotic location with beautiful people and a world-renowned DJ, my CDs would keep the listener firmly tethered to the cold, grey tundra of Lorain County, Ohio, where they were forced to listen to a terrible DJ (me!) playing tracks that they probably didn't want to hear in the first place.

As it turns out, those original, highly stylized GU liner notes that I was parodying were written by the former editor of Mixmag, Dom Phillips.

Just this past week, the world learned that Dom and his colleague Bruno Pereira were likely murdered for their journalistic activism, which sought to protect the indigenous people and environment of the Amazon rainforest. I had no idea that this was what Dom Phillips had been up to since his days in the dance music world. I also learned just this week that one of my best friends, who happened to be a foreign correspondent based in Brazil during the 2014 FIFA World Cup, had briefly met Dom during that time and said that he was a really great guy and outstanding journalist. I sincerely wish all of Dom's friends and family members comfort in the wake of this horrible tragedy.

Thinking about all of this over the past week, I decided to dust off one of my old Global Underground parody CDs (GU:NuBreed became GU:InBreed) and play it on the radio and post it here, as well. And, of course, we have the silly, 20-year old parody pullquote from the liner notes, written by the fictional character "Dim Phillips." 

As silly and dumb as the joke was, it shows how influential Dom's writing was during the rise of dance music in the late 1990s/early 00's. I want to offer a heartfelt thanks to Dom on behalf of the global dance music community.

“Gelatinous glitterball grooves and metallic melodies locked with motorway basslines, the Herbal Pudding progressive house machine keeps squelching, shivering, caressing, and grabbing itself.”

- Dim Phillips*

GU:InBreed (Live from Lorain County, OH) (2001)

Back when I was living in NYC, I got an email from @kendrakicks telling me that Daft Punk were coming to Coney Island. That was all I needed to hear! I was too young to see them in 1997 for the Daftendirekt Tour, so I wasn't going to miss out on this one. And it did not disappoint!

I have to be honest, I was not expecting the show to be that good! I really did not like "Human After All," and wasn't sure why Daft Punk was playing a minor league baseball stadium and not a nightclub. But wow, this was really something else.

My favorite memory of that night was sitting in the stands and seeing these two young, geeky teenagers who reminded me of a younger version of myself, sitting right in front of us getting totally hyped as The Rapture were finishing their opening set. They were frantically checking their watches every few minutes. Finally I tapped one of them on the shoulder and asked why they came out to hear Daft Punk.

"Well, we're best friends, and every Bar Mitzvah we've ever been to, they always play 'One More Time' and we just love that song! So we told our parents we were going to the movies and then get some food, but we actually just drove his mom's minivan here from Long Island and we're staying out as long as we can so we can get home before curfew at 11pm!"

Lucky for followers of this Instagram account, you can re-live the glory of that night yourself, which was recorded on DAT by a friend of Simply Paradise guest dj @kendrakicks and was briefly posted online on a website called humanrobotsinbrooklyn.com (it got shut down within 48 hours of being posted).

But I have my copy of the recording, and I've posted it to my Soundcloud. If you listen closely, you can hear a very excited Kendra in the crowd, imploring you to drink and dance in the rain!

Here's my much-anticipated interview with NYC DJ extraordinaire Dan Selzer (@newyorkendless) a/k/a Karen O.’s “friend Dan from Oberlin” about his role as a DJ in the so-called #indiesleaze movement and what the scene was *actually* like in reality. Dan is an amazing storyteller and some of his stories felt all too real to me! This is Part 2 of a multi-episode series on the #indiedance and #electroclash scenes from the early 2000s as depicted in the Lizzy Goodman's book, “Meet Me In The Bathroom.”

Ep. 324: The Electroclash Hipster Dance Era (as it really was)

I recorded this two hour vinyl mix of midtempo disco burners while my hardwood floors were being repaired. There was so much noise from the hammering that I couldn't really talk on the mic! But thanks to the amazing technological advances in RUBBER BANDS, the needles never skipped and you can't even hear the vibrations on the recording. Amazing.

A fantastic mix CD by legendary Detroit DJ @1whodatis from around 2013 or so, when she was selling records at a pop-up shop in Eastern Market (in addition to producing and playing gigs around town). Terri was extremely kind to me during my time in Detroit and I am happy to see how much success she has had as a producer and DJ over the past decade.

Ep. 358: Midnight Lady

This 2.5 cassette set was recorded off the live WFNX broadcast by former Spin Cycle promotions/guest list wizard and my dear friend, Kendra B.(https://soundcloud.com/kendrakicks) Kendra has had these tapes in the same green Jeep Wrangler she used to park on Landsdowne Street back in the late 90's, and listened to them regularly until her cassette deck recently bit the dust. 

In my opinion, this is one of the best, most accurate, and most complete depictions of Spin Cycle in its heyday. DJ Tym Ryan is in top form, mixing hard, disco, and tech house seamlessly for the Axis regulars and dropping a number of Spin Cycle anthems along the way. X-Night at Axis DJ Mike Gioscia (https://soundcloud.com/gioscia) recorded all of the voiceover promos, while the Genial Host, Charlie, added the usual mischievous commentary.

These cassettes have been lovingly restored and digitized using the following equipment:
• Nakamichi DR-3 Cassette Deck
• DBX 503 Dynamic Range Expander
• Bozak CMA-10-2DLA Preamplifier
• Marantz PMD-661 Portable Digital Recorder

Dene Kadej-Ibarra (@la-casa-tropical) joined resident Don Play for a night of South African music in the small college town of Chapel Hill, North Carolina.

Unfortunately, the digital recording cut out only 35 minutes into Dene's 3 hour set. Trust me when I tell that the rest of the night was as good, if not better than those first 35 minutes.

Ep. 188: Sesame’s Treet

This is a short, 1-hour guest mix of Detroit techno and dance classics for Prof. Matthew Heck's undergraduate class at Brandeis University, called "Love is the Message."

The intent of this mix is to give a feel for diverse sounds that influenced party culture in Detroit in the 1980's, paving the way for what we now call Detroit techno. Some of the tracks in the first fifteen minutes of this mix are NOT produced by Detroit artists — this is intentional. Detroit's legendary radio DJ, The Electrifying Mojo, would broadcast eclectic sounds like these to homes across the region, providing a futuristic, utopian musical landscape that transcended genres, socioeconomics, and racial boundaries. This was the context that inspired local artists to create their own original sound, which in 1988 was officially presented to the UK market as "Techno! The New Dance Sound of Detroit."

Mixed live on Technics 1200 MkII M3D and Rane MP2016.
