This episode was a third birthday special! To mark 3 years since I first took the plunge and started doing these shows, I decided it would be nice to fill the first hour entirely with tracks from previous guest DJs. I had great fun cramming in as many tracks as I could, working up from 100 to 125 BPM over the course of the hour, with appearances from 21 previous guests as well as a cheeky new one from myself. 

I managed to bag a very special guest for the second hour, someone I’ve been trying to get on the show for a while now - Mexico’s very own Hotmood! He’s one of the most respected, talented and prolific producers in our scene, putting out a seemingly endless string of releases on all sorts of labels, but never letting the quality slip. His tracks make regular appearances on my show and I’m proud to have  released an EP on his label Discoweey.

This mix is made up entirely of his own stuff, and it’s great - loads of his trademark exotic, quirky, obscure, fruity sound and of course razor sharp production throughout. Big, big thanks to Guillermo for sending me this great mix, and big big thanks to each and every one of you who has listened to the show over the last 3 years. I really really appreciate it, and can’t wait to bring you more shows with more excellent guests soon! 

Catch lots more from Hotmood here…

Funkier Radio 3rd Birthday (Episode 81) - Hotmood Guest Mix

Mz amERIKA aka MC Party Mouth was a staple on the SF House Scene from '93 to '98. Club DV8T, Club Townsend, 1015 Folsom, The Pit, a few others, but most importantly she could be found at the END UP on Sunday morning to Monday Morning. She is most known for her non-stop twirling, floor tours, confetti throwing, rainbow suspenders (90s) and tool belt (now).

 "I am building a better house on the dance floor, I have to have a place for my tools and my towel. I'm here to work this floor, you never know what tools you might need." - Mz amERIKA

Most notably you can recognize her on any dance floor, calling out to the music and creating an inclusive vibe for all the groovers. She records whatever comes out and uses it to create funky fun house lyrics with attitude. She began writing lyrics in 2005, but tucked them away. She wasn't ready. 10 years later the lyrics resurfaced and she knew it was time. She's putting all her love, light, power and wisdom into this house to create a true vibe. Keep an ear out for her new "Love Note House Music" collaborations with local and global DJs.

"I thank the Baby J for the Dj that helps me get through the crap that comes my way."


Catch her live show GRUVMNT on SugarShackRadio.com every Sunday from 5pm and 7 pm Pac / 7pm to 9pm Cen & Mex.  The Last Sunday of the month on Como se dice House? We elevate and celebrate Latin House, Latin@ DJs and those from Spain tambien. 


2018 has spurred several collaborations featuring her voice on several tracks:

"Hey, Jack" by Ray Levant, Krome Boulevard
"Me and That Floor" by Manny Acevedo, Midwest Hustle
"Smack my Pu$$y"  by Filta Freqz, Seventy Four
