Andys Rewind Vol 3 -- Ultimate Piano House Mix

The idea for this mix came up a few months ago when one of my friends posted a Youtube link of Banderas "This Is Your Life" on Facebook. This song got a special place in my heart ever since I heard it for the first time in 1991. It was about time to do something with it, put it in a mix for example. Not sure how I wanted this to fit in but it had to be done, one way or the other. When I drove home from work later that day 'Crazy' from Seal was played on the radio -while that song hardly get any airplay anymore nowadays- and at that moment I realised there where quite some songs in the early 90's that a similar vibe: Mid tempo electronic music with pop/soul/funk and house influences caracterised by excellent songwriting and/or production. Slighty on the deeper/smoother side with -most important of all- a lot of emotion. 

It took me over a month to complete the track selection. Digging deep (ha!) into my collection to find the right versions and to be sure I didn't forget a personal favourite. Most of the selected tracks where used but unfortunately I also had to leave some tracks out because they simply did not fit in the mix on the spot where I wanted them to be. Futhermore I wanted the mix to be 2,5 to 3 hours max. Family stand "Ghetto Heaven", Enigma "Sadeness", Inner City "Watcha Gonna Do With My Lovin'", Driza Bone "Real Love" and Fidelfatti feat. Shirley - "Listen to my music" are among those that didn't make it. 
Most of the songs belong to my all time favourites and so many memories come back to me when I listen to the mix; Holidays in France, Summer Love, School, The Pirate radio stations we ran, Maxximum (yeah that one!) are a few random things that come to mind right now.

The night I started working on the mix I didn't know what challenge there was yet to come. It turned out to be an arduous task as a lot of the tracks where all but DJ-Mix friendly which forced me to create 'mixable' re-edits first. In some cases I was able pick a small drum/instrumental part of the song in question to create an intro and outro, in other cases I had to use multiple versions of a track to make one decent mixable version. It took me over two weeks to complete the mix (Sorry honey for being upstairs all the time! Love you!). Never spend that much time on a DJ mix before -not counting the Awesome Bootleg Mix as that is a megamix- and I am very pleased with the result now that it is finished. I hope you will enjoy it as much I do.
