Unconditional Revolution

I can't believe it's been nearly four months since I've posted a mix here.  Where does the time go?  I certainly hope it was worth the wait.

I fear it may be painfully obvious that I first started working on this back in March.  Several of the songs here were getting major airplay a month or two ago.  However, even though they may be a bit past their prime at this point, I think the remixes are quality enough that none of the songs here should sound too out-of-date.  And I'm sure there are at least a few tracks here that should be new to most people.

I'm really hoping to post my annual pride mix by Friday the 27th, so watch for that.  Four months since the last mix, and now two weeks to wait for another?  Yeah, that's random.

End of the Universe

As promised, here is nearly 94 minutes of commercial & progres-sive house euphoria. This should definitely stand in contrast to last month's mix, but should be a pretty nice complement to that as well.  Here you'll find some of the biggest house tunes of the year, including one track each from the top four DJ's in this year's DJ Mag Top 100.  In fact, half of the songs on this mix come from producers in the top 20, so if you don't enjoy, you're probably in the wrong place. :)

I'm already hard at work on my annual top 30 mix, so watch for that in a couple of weeks.  Then expect a break while I work on something new and entirely different from anything else I've posted in the past several years.  More to come.

A Sound Addiction

The last time I put together a pop mix was last December.  Truth be told, as pop music creeps further and further into EDM territory, remixes/reworks become much less interesting, less dissimilar to the original, and I'm less inclined to use them in my mixes.  After all, who wants to hear a slightly different version of a song that has been played on the radio over and over and over again?  Thus, this mix is a bit different in that I tried to include a number of songs that were inherently "pop" in nature, but haven't been overplayed to the extreme.  Not all of these tracks are "new", but this does pretty well represent my favorite pop remixes of the past six months or so.

I'll have one more mix before the end of the year, so make sure to watch for that.  As of right now it's entirely pop free...just lots of proggy, electro goodness to enjoy.  It'll be a nice change after this one.

Goodbye Summertime

I can't believe it's been three months since my last mix.  I sure hope this one was worth the wait!  Where the

hell did summer go again?

I seriously considered not including the Avicii and Lana del Rey tracks because EDM seems to have pretty much taken over commercial Top 40 radio now, and both of those songs are ridiculously overplayed.  However, they're both two of my favorite dance songs of the year, and it didn't seem right to leave them out.  Hopefully you're not entirely sick of them yet.

Other than the two aforementioned tracks, there's not a lot of pop remixes here.  It's actually been quite awhile since I've put together a more pop-centric dance mix, so that may be in the works next.  I promise not to make you wait three months this time.

Another Summer Ender...

Summer is just about over, and somehow I managed to only post one single mix in three months.  The sad part is that I have so many great, new tracks that I'd like to use.  My hope is that the next month will come sooner than later...but no promises. :)

Hopefully this one was worth the wait.  It's pretty heavy on the progressive & commercial house end of the spectrum, but there are a few pop songs sprinkled throughout and a couple of electro tracks toward the end.  All of these songs are pretty high quality, especially Christangelo's Chuckie & Promise Land bootleg remix, Spencer & Hill's "Let Out Da Freak", Michael Woods' remix of Calvin Harris's latest, and Micha Moor's take on the well-known "Take Me To the Clouds Above".  By all means, feel free to leave a comment and let me know which songs you enjoyed most.

Surrender to the Sound...

Okay, so I'm still behind.  It took me a bit longer to finish this one, which I admit was mostly a lack of motivation.  I'm not sure it's necessary to continue worrying about an 80-minute track limit.  Isn't everyone just listening to these on their iPod or phone now anyway?  (Please let me know your thoughts either way!).

Regardless of the delay, I think this came together nicely.  I think the stuff I'm putting together now is a significant improvement over what I was doing even a year or two ago.  I've gone back and listened to some of my older stuff lately, and there's a lot of imperfect stuff I'd never let slide past me now.  Maybe I've gotten better.  Or maybe I'm just more of a perfectionist now.  Who can really say?


This mix is a little less hardcore than the last, though it does hit some heavy electro notes by the end.  But it takes a bit longer to get there, and there's a nice, long lead-in of some more chill songs that I really enjoy.  There's a lot to like here, I think, but my favorites are probably the Starkillers/Nadia Ali track, the Bodybangers remix, Chris Lake's driving house tune "Sundown," and Dirty South's "Alive."  It's a bit older now, but there are about a dozen amazing remixes of that tune, by the way, and you should consider checking the others out.


Enough rambling...on to the music!

It's Midnight Somewhere...

Wow, it's been a whopping four months since I posted my last monthly mix (perhaps it's time to stop referring to them as "montly mixes"). As such, I've got a fairly large backlog of music that I've been meaning to work into some new mixes. I've selected probably my 20 favorites for this mix. Some of them are, of course, a few months old but these were just too good to pass on.

This mix is a return to my typical format (pop-maintream-electro), with perhaps a bit more progressive than usual. That's really more of a trend than an exception; progressive music is becoming the mainstream dance sound, with electro feeling a bit "been there, done that" lately. Trends in music change and evolve, of course, but I largely blame pop music artists for ruining the electro sound. I enjoy the occasional Black Eyed Peas or Ncki Minaj song, but it's hard to appreciate electro house when it's been co-opted by the likes of Flo Rida, Pitbull, and Britney Spears. Feel free to disagree. :)

 In any case, I hope you enjoy this mix. Favorite tracks? Pretty much everything here, though R3hab's Lady Gaga remix, the Avicii and Spencer & Hill tracks, Basto's take on The Wanted, and Chuckie's "Down for Whatever" remix are pretty sick. Keep your eyes on the blog; another new mix will be posted very shortly. I promise.

Sounds Like Paradise

This is probably my last mix of the year, and I think it's a pretty good one. I like that it's not a simple recitation of pop songs you could hear by switching on any Top 40 radio station. While I do enjoy mixing with remixed pop hits, I think it was time for a break. If you don't follow dance music, most of these songs (save two or three) will be new to you. And more new music is always a good thing.

Favorites of mine include Fedde Le Grand's fantastic Coldplay remix, Basto's progressive anthem (that I somehow let slip past me until now), and Tim Mason's intense Lucid remix. I think Kaskade did a great job on both tracks here, as well. But don't take my word for it; download & listen away!

Get it Started

This is a nice collection of pop, house, and electro dance tunes to get your summer started off right. There are a lot of big tracks here; in particular, I really enjoy Kaskade's take on Robyn's newest single, and Example's "Changed the Way You Kiss Me." The two Adele tracks are pretty sick too, especially DJ's From Mars' mash the classic Robyn S anthem.

My annual Pride mix should be posted within the next couple of weeks, so keep an eye out. Until then, I hope you enjoy this one!

Freak Out

My last few mixes have been pretty heavy on the pop music, so I think you'll find this one to be a nice change of pace. Though there are a couple of pop songs, the majority of this one fits squarely in the commercial, progressive, and electro house side of things. In fact, there there's at least one track from most of the major commercial house producers out there (recognizing that "major" is, of course, a rather subjective term).

As I was preparing my end-of-year mix last month, I realized I had missed out on the opportunity to use several of the biggest tracks of the year. As such, you'll find many of them featured her (Animal Rights, Phazing, We Speak No Americano, and One to mention just a few). If you've been to a club in the past year you've no doubt heard at least one - if not all - of these, so I hope you enjoy hearing them here. It's a pretty dancy mix overall, but I think it's a pretty good change of pace. I hope you like it as much as I do!

Bombs Away! (December 2010 Mix)

With just days to spare, I've managed to finish one last mix before my annual "top 30" compil-ation...and if you ask me, it's one of the year's best. Though it starts with a few nice pop tunes, it quickly transitions into a combination of progressive and electro house that at times verges on mind-blowing. Standouts include Robyn's super addicting "Indestructible", two amazing Avicii remixes, SHM's Miami 2 Ibiza, and the two Klaas tracks (happy to see he's back with a vengence!).

Enjoy the music, and happy holidays! I've gotta' run...it's time to get work on my year-end Top 30 mix! (Look for it online sometime on the 31st!).

Hot, Dark & Dirty (November 2010)

My latest mix is definitely overdue. It's a bit heavier on the pop than usual, and though some of the tracks might be slightly outdated now, I think it's pretty enjoyable on the whole. You'll hear several contributions from producers I tend to use a lot (Freemasons, Bimbo Jones, David Guetta, Chew Fu), but there's also a good number of of remixes from lesser-knowns and first-timers...always a good thing! The mix does get heavier and more electronic toward the end, the the last track is pretty mind-blowing IMO. (Also really loving the Jump Smokers' work on Usher's latest, and DJ Kue worked over Kesha and turned crap into gold).

It's June already??!

It's been awhile, hasn't it? I guess somehow between the great spring weather, a trip to Vegas, and a new computer (with new mixing software), I feel a bit behind. I hope I'm forgiven. :)

This is a pretty standard 80-minute mix of (relatively) new music. It starts off with some pop and indie house, and quickly moves on to the more elecro side of things. There are definitely some summer bangers here. DJ Zam's take on DJ Antoine is a big winner, and I like Ryan Riback's pretty sick take on the Magik Johnson track. DJ'S From Mars continue to really impress me with their electro mashes. You'll find three of their remixes here (a fourth was cut at the last minute, but will definitely show up next time).

February 2010

My first monthly mix of 2010, and I think it's pretty solid. There's nothing particularly unexpected here, but it should please anyone who has come to love my typical blends of house, electro, and progressive. I can almost guarantee this one will get you moving, but by all means drop me a line and let me know what you think. I hope you enjoy!

One for the road...

So another year has just about come to its end, and thus this obviously the last monthly mix of the year. I know I say this about most (all?) of my mixes, but this one has a little bit of everything. From pop, hip-hop, and rock to house, electro, and progressive, this one really does have it all. And don't worry, there are a few of those 80's reworks that people love so much thrown in here too. :)

Now that this mix is complete, I'll be hard at work putting together my top 30 songs of 2009 for my end-of-year mix. I've got a fairly good idea of which songs I'm going to include, but if you have any suggestions, feel free to throw 'em my way. Which songs were your favorites from 2009? You might just persuade me to include it in the list. Hurry, though, because I've gotta' get to work fast!

As usual, the trackl ist and download links are below. Feel free to leave a comment. Enjoy, and thanks for your continued support!

Almost December

Despite the fact that the month of November has almost passed us, I'm calling this the November mix,. I'm doing this mainly because I've once again found myself with more music than I know what to do with, and I'm going to try to crank out at least one more mix before the end of the year.

This one is mostly house and electro, with just a touch of progressive (ie one song). If you're big into progressive house this may not be the one for you. If you like the rest of my mixes, though, I think you'll really like it - lots of great electro house from all of the usual suspects.

As always, the tracklist and download links are below. Please take a moment to leave a comment if you wish. What songs did you like? What didn't you like? What did and didn't work for you? I enjoy your feedback either way, but I do hope you find yourself at least tapping your feet, if not standing up to dance wherever you are when you listen. Unless you're driving, of course. :)

The May Mix

From indie to house, and from house to electro, here is the May mix. There's a lot of good stuff on here, including a couple of songs that are destined to become summer anthems (two for sure...see if you can pick 'em!). I enjoy the variety in this mix; there's really a bit of everything. I hope you enjoy!

The April Mix

Back again with a brand new montly mix, and this time I've kept it pretty mainstream. I haven't posted a monthly mix since November (!), so this is pretty seriously overdue. There has been a ton of really great music released lately, which can only mean that summer is just around the corner. The songs selected for this mix represent my favorite remixes of songs currently in heavy rotation on the radio and in the clubs. And if there's a song on here that you haven't heard yet, you can probably expect to hear it more and more as the weather warms and people begin packing the clubs again. It's about time, isn't it?

Oops! (Nov '08 Mix)

So yeah, this is late...

I'm not sure how I neglected posting this for so long. Maybe it's just the time of year. In any case, this is a mix of mainstream and electro remixes I put together more than a month ago now. It's little poppier than normal (at least until the halfway point), but that's OK. There are actually quite a few really good songs on it, so I suggest you give it a listen and see what you think! As always, the tracklist and download link are below. Keep your eye on the blog, because I have at least two more mixes to post before the end of the year.

Hope you enjoy.
