Here's the first half of my final set at WL for my very first residency for the month of August 2023. Similar vibe to my last set at WL, but took some different paths on this one. Hope you enjoy the good vibes and vibrations :) 

Love y'all for all the support! Can't wait to have you on my next dance floor!

House Party 3 Summer 2023

Ever feel a little badass?  If not, do you want to?

In support of your badassery (is that even a word?), I have a classics-heavy November mix.  

The world is complicated right now, and the days are getting longer in the northern hemisphere. If you are feeling a little down...consider this a musical prescription to boost your mood 🙂.

There's a lot going on in this mix - some energetic house, some vocal dance, and a fair dose of electro-pop.  (Of note is a 2023 remaster of the JRMX Club Mix of Jessica Sutta's 2013 hit, 'Again' - too good to be forgotten!).  The focus here was the theme rather than new tracks.  Hope it hangs together!

My wish for all of this month is that we embrace our inner badass - not the sort that places us above others, but rather just confidence in knowing our strengths and weaknesses.  (It's ok. Really!)

’I'm digging’ my newest mix set - PIANO SOLO - which began airing on Nov 15....take a listen...let me know what you think.
Not all tracks have a piano, but many tracks do, and I chose tracks that also featured live instruments like horns, saxophones, and great percussion. I’ve included some amazing remixes of some classic house tunes, some remixes of country & and rock artists, and a brand new song, mixed by one of my favorite producers, Mr. Dave Aude, from the original Pop Princess (pre-Britney), the amazing Debbie Gibson called "Love Don't Care"! This mix set is a fun one, I think you all will enjoy.

I'm a LeAnn Rimes fanboy - I admit it. 

But with a career spanning more than a quarter century, and covering multiple genres, what's not to like?

On top of that, she's often paired with the most superb remixers - Dave Audé, Cahill, Graham Stack - with happy results.

The focus in this mix is LeAnn Rimes, but I've avoided her big hits and chosen to lean into her neglected gems (of which there are many!).  I've interleaved her tracks with other artists in the same style.  The result is a bit of a musical poem.  I hope that it rhymes. :-)

Looking over the completed mix, I see that it has a definite mood, with the final two tracks comprising a call and response.  Many tracks are on the thoughtful and pensive side. Such things are part of life.

So my wish for all of you for March is that you remember that hope is a virtue.  There's always hope. :-)

Peace, love, joy.

Part 2 of my Future Disco set from BUNKER in DC on March 2nd ... this very high-energy second half of my set seriously blew away even my self-expectations. Thank you, again, BUNKER, for such a fun theme and such an amazing crowd! I can't wait to return!

Future Disco, Bunker DC | March 2, 2k24 (Part 2)

Here's my last Flagging in the Living Room mini-dance remix. This nearly 40-minute compilation features flagger-friendly renditions of dance floor classics from the 1970s to the 2000s, reimagined by myself and others. I'm releasing this remix in anticipation of Flagging in the Desert on April 13, 2024, in Palm Springs, CA.

Tracklist:

"No One Gets The Prize" (Almighty Anthem Radio Edit) / Diana Ross

Diana Ross released "No One Gets the Prize" in 1979 as part of her album "The Boss." Legendary British production duo Almighty rearranged the mix to highlight Miss Ross's stunning vocals. This energetic remix is a disco fan favorite for its infectious rhythm and catchiness.

[Medley] "Vertigo: Relight My Fire" (Mean Fiddler 12 Inch Solo Remix) / Dan Hartman ft Loleatta Holloway

Dan Hartman's 1979 medley merges "Vertigo" and "Relight My Fire" into a dynamic disco track, smoothly blending both songs. "Relight My Fire," featuring Loleatta Holloway's powerful vocals, stands out.

The 'Mean Fiddler' remix was created by DJ and music producer Alan Coulthard, whose reworking often incorporates extended intros, breaks, and a focus on enhancing the rhythmic and melodic elements of the original tracks.

"You Make Me Feel Mighty Real Might Real" (M Carranco 2013 Vocal Remix) / Sylvester

Spanish music producer M Carranco revamps Sylvester's iconic hit "You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)," a celebrated anthem from the late '70s LGBTQ+ disco scene. Known for its catchy beat, dynamic vocals, and empowering lyrics, the song champions liberation and self-empowerment, resonating with the LGBTQ+ community. 

Sylvester, an openly gay icon known for his flamboyance and vocal prowess, helped the track transcend the disco scene, hitting mainstream success worldwide. This enduring classic is considered one of the greatest disco songs.

"Begin the Beguine" (Fundamento ReMix) / Johnny Mathis

Cole Porter wrote "Begin the Beguine" in 1935; Johnny Mathis released it as a disco track in 1979. Spanish DJ/producer Diego-Funkdamento, known for his classic song remixes, offers a modern take on this track in this continuous mix.

[Mashup] "I Feel Love Tonight" (Claudio Spagnoli High Hell Club Mix) / Donna Summer and Shouse

Claudio Spagnoli's High Hell Club Mix of "I Feel Love" pairs Donna Summer's ethereal vocals with a pulsating electronic beat. Giorgio Moroder and Pete Bellotte's original production is a seminal influence in electronic dance music, marking a pivotal moment in the evolution of disco and electronic music. It remains a timeless classic and a staple of dance floors worldwide.

"Crazy" (Tempo Elektrik ReMix) / Gnarls Barkley

"Crazy (Tempo Elektrik Remix)" is a reworking of a 2006 hit by Gnarls Barkley, a musical collaboration between producer Danger Mouse and rapper/singer CeeLo Green.

The original version of "Crazy" topped charts worldwide and received critical acclaim for its unique blend of soul, funk, alternative rock elements, catchy lyrics, and CeeLo Green's distinctive vocals.

Tempo Elektrik (DJ Jay Partridge) has been spinning tunes for nearly twenty years at some of the UK's most high-profile venues.

"I'd Really Love To See You Tonight" / Barry Manilow

"I'd Really Love to See You Tonight" was initially recorded by England Dan & John Ford Coley in 1976. Barry Manilow covered the song in 1997. The disco version sampled here transformed the song into a more upbeat and energetic rendition, fitting the disco trends of the time.

"Believe" (Ministers De La Funk Remix) - Jocelyn Brown

"Believe" (Ministers De La Funk Remix) is a notable remix of the song originally performed by Jocelyn Brown. The remix included here is from Ministers De La Funk, a collaborative project involving renowned DJs and producers Erick Morillo, Harry Romero, and Jose Nunez.

This remix is an excellent example of how remixing can breathe new life into a track, giving it a fresh sound while still honoring the original composition.

Tremors takes a turn and serves up some delicious classic remixes with some new tracks thrown in.

Tremors 23 Live @ The Alley 5-18-24

It’s been a while since my last podcast, but I’m ready with a new one to kick off the summer. Vol. 14 is a two-hour journey that starts with nu-disco and then builds gradually to a full dance floor house music frenzy - it turns into a groove set in the middle before bringing it back around to some soulful sounds and finally ending with some more chill tech house to wrap up the journey. 

There are a few new tracks from some of my favorite producers on here that I love so much and can’t wait to highlight in sets this summer, including Sam Divine’s “Saved By The Record,” Wh0’s “Sunglasses,” and Earth n Days’ “Stronger”... Illyus & Barrientos’ homage to Vicki Sue Robinson - “VSR” (sampling “House Of Joy”) - gives me chills it’s so good.

Take some downtime to listen and enjoy. Let me know your thoughts in the comments. And remember, always... that #HouseIsAFeeling
