Here is my Liveset from this past NYE for Tropical Fruits, recorded live from Lismore Showground, 10:30pm > 1am. The set is split into two different sounds, the first being uplifting vocal house with a tribal-edge, reflecting the theme Aqueerious Rising, the second half goes a little deeper & darker with a melodic twist. 

Thank you to Tropical Fruits Org for having me play & also to DJ Ruby for the audio recording. 

Please let me know what you think in the comments.

DJ BLACKLOW | Aspen Gay Ski Week 2k23, The White Party (Part 2)

I was telling DJ Michael Rackley that I wanted to make a Pride Month mix - but that somehow I wanted to put a new spin on the concept, a new twist. 

From that vague thought and him hearing me out, a week later, I have a new mix.

It starts with a few clouds, but by the third track, they blow away and the sun comes out.  I think it is a fundamentally happy mix to help you celebrate this month.

---- 

I'm not sure I can precisely define "pride", but I know that being free is part of it - the knowledge of who you are, the courage and space to express it, as well as the confidence to allow and support others in their freedom.

This mix is about freedom.  It starts with struggling to be free.  From there, we deal with having to let another be free, and then wishing for freedom.  The mood moves up to feeling free, pleading for freedom, and then appreciating it; and rises again to revel in it. It ends with the ultimate - the freedom to spread our wings and take flight.

May you all have the insight and courage this Pride Month to be who you truly are.

This mix is dedicated to Michael Rackley for his friendship, and his support in my learning the craft.

Part 2 of my Sunday Daddy Disco set from BUNKER In Washington DC (Aug. 6th, 2k23)... this was honestly a very difficult set for me to play. It followed a celebration of life for a person who was a member of the BUNKER family; he was a new friend in my life... and someone whose wedding I had played just one year earlier. The doors opened to the public at 9 p.m. when many of his closest friends and loved ones were still gathered. It was very difficult for me to find a balance between getting the party going and thinking about trying to honor his memory. I ended the set on a special somewhat somber note, in tribute to him. I'd like to send special love and appreciation through this set to all of my incredible DC family.

Abel's 25th Anniversary Classics Sessions Vol.1

Welcome to an intimate and uplifting musical collaboration between friends ... 
set to the backdrop of Nature’s beauty during one of the most challenging times in the world. It was a special LIVESTREAM GARDEN PARTY at my house here in Birmingham, starting early on the perfect weather day of May 31st. I moved the DJ equipment and speakers outside with the backdrop of Nature’s beauty behind us and was joined by David Ohmann and DJ Mike Pope from Atlanta. We were very much looking forward to sharing our music with listeners then ... and now with you!
Our new age of entertaining takes quite an effort, but it’s all been worth it. So many thanks to our producer, David Ohmann, for managing while letting our creativity flow as he made the experience available to you in so multiple ways! Originally airing on TWITCH and Zoom, we hope to build our followers with your help. Tune in to https://www.twitch.tv/davidohmann/videos, https://www.twitch.tv/djmikepope/videos,https://www.twitch.tv/djmikepope/videos Musically, Mike Pope and I were sure our chemistry would work. Although we had each prepared in advance with ideas of what we might want to play, we found in the shared, live moment that our directions were affected by current events. We each hoped to make a small contribution to the musical universe during a time of need.THE MESSAGE OF OUR GARDEN PARTY: Share the positivity and build the spirit one song at a time. We hope you enjoy it. We’re giving you 3 hours with no breaks. It would take forever to write out a playlist, so just sit back and enjoy. If you have a question, private message us on Facebook. With all that said, I allowed my feelings guide me through my portions of our set. Whether with classics, house, tribal, circuit or whatever ... I sought to express myself and my heart by blending different vibes into one. Mike and I just strove to do our best.Patti Razetto? Thank you for holding me together! Thank you and may God bless us all!

Garden Party Mixcloud DJ Tony Moran & DJ Mike Pope

I really miss working at night, the dj booth, the energy of the crowd, my colleagues, friends, lights, loud music ....  all.
Every now and then I put on a record that I love, I close my eyes and I let myself be carried away by the sound and memories, and that's how I made my latest project. 
NOSTALGIA made me go back in time to my roots, when I enjoyed browsing old vinyls or single CDs in search of a new remix or a new song.
I'm sure we'll all go back to dancing together until morning, with more energy than before, but until then let's get carried away by the music and its emotions.

Enjoy.  ❤️
