DJ Nate Rusch - Dance Odyssey II (Electro House)

Although I enjoy a wide variety of music and regularly listen to several styles of dance music, Electro House is most definitely my favored genre. Electro House has seriously exploded onto the club scene in the past few years, dominating the mainstream club scene to the point where many danceheads complain of its saturation. I'll agree that it is at times repetetive, but there are many artists out there still producing quality work and solid, bangin' club anthems. Which brings me to the second installation of my "Dance Odyssey" series, devoted solely to Electro House.

There are a lot of really great songs in this mix, including a handful of reworks from the '80's and '90's. Nearly all of my favorite electro artists are represented here, plus a couple of new and emerging artists who have producing some really exciting tracks. Expect 80 minutes of non-stop, hardcore club bangers from start to finish (with a little bit of cheese on top :) ).

This time, I've given you the option of downloading the mix in a single track or as a .zip file of the mix split into tracks. As always, the tracklist is below. Leave your comments below that and, above all else, enjoy!

Something for your holiday travels

The first of a series of genre-specific mixes, this one showcases vocal house music at its finest. There's a little bit of everything here, from disco and funky house to pop remixes and modern commercial house. It's a bit cheesy at times, but I think it's a lot of fun, and practically guaranteed to get you on your feet. Not everything featured here is brand new. Although most of it is pretty recent, I tried to choose songs that fit well together and carried the essence of classic house music. The download link & tracklist are below. I hope you enjoy!

Stay tuned for my "Top 30 of 2008" mix, which will be posted here before the end of the year. Have a good holiday season!
