Florida based DJ Morex has asked a few DJs to make End of Year Mixes for his website.  Make sure to check mine out HERE.  If I’m not mistaken, I’m the only non-trance DJ asked to participate  I had a lot of fun doing it, and if you’ve been listening to the show, I’m sure you’ll hear a lot of familiar tracks.

Happy New Year, everyone!!!!

Brand new mix CD by yours truly!! As the name implies, this is late night music;  this is “I can’t believe I’m still out” music!!   I tiptoed on the weird line without going over so as to introduce people to this sound.  Not much else to say other than I really enjoyed making this CD and was surprised at all the techno I have

A couple of quick shouts:  the901 (i’ll always appreciate it man!), eldanen, djMorex, msBS, and all my party people east, west, north, and south of me!   PLUR

If you know what you are doing with CUE files (ie, burning to CD with tracks), the cue file can be downloaded here -> CUE for Do Not Play Before 4am.

Last week’s show had a technical problem about 20 minutes in, so at about 10:20 I shut down the broadcast and started it again.  I picked up with the song that I had left off, which is a bit of a shame, because I had build up this very cool latin house groove… oh well.  Here is the remaining hour and a half for your downloading pleasure, though.  It’s a bit… jumpy?  I downloaded a lot of music and it didn’t necessarily all go together, but I wanted to play them cause they were good tracks  :D

I’ll playlist in the morning… in the meanwhile, enjoy

There are a couple of Michael Jackson remixes in here, and they don’t necessarily flow 100% with the rest of the mix, but I couldn’t help myself.

By now, the world knows that Michael Jackson passed away on 06.25.09.  The reports are all over the place, and you can find them very easily.  I’m not going to talk about how he died.  I wanted to pay tribute to him.  By no way what-so-ever fitting into the status quo, Michael Jackson influenced the lives of MILLIONS of people.  Diddy, aka, Puff Daddy, said earlier of Michael, “Michael Jackson showed me that you can actually see the beat.”  See it… feel it… love it.  I got into DJing because of my love of clubbing.  And my love of clubbing came from my love of dancing.  And as a child born in 1980, take a guess who I tried to dance, and dress, and be like when I was a kid… exactly.

I couldn’t sleep last night (and as much as Michael’s passing means to me, it’s not why I couldn’t sleep… I just couldn’t sleep), and as I lay in bed the idea of a doing a tribute mix popped into my head… so I got up and got to work.

Now please understand, I don’t mix this type of music, aka open format.  I spin house and trance and a bunch of other styles like those.  This was something I did out of love for the music that Michael Jackson gave to us.  His music has meaning, and I very much believe in the power of music.  (Don’t mind me if I’m rambling, it’s almost 6am).  Anyway, here it is…. I’ll fix the post up later (when I wake up) with a proper track list.

I’m not sure what’s going on (well, ok… i think I have an idea), but the podcast page in iTunes is only showing one downloadable item.  This morning it was, correctly, showing two.  I’m hoping that when Apple refreshes the feeds tomorrow, it will clear this problem up…. otherwise, I may have to re-submit my podcast link to their system! >_<

In the meantime, I hope you are enjoying the music which is still available right here on the site!  :D

Nevermind …. hit that podcast!!

I’m glad my podcast was approved by Apple because I have a brand new CD for you to DL here   This is If at First v.7, and it’s my first in the series since last year when I started doing Memory Lapse.

The differences between IaF and ML are that the IaF recordings are meant to fit on a CD and they are very coherent and delibrate pieces.   I playlist very careful and try to build a different theme for each one.   MLs are 2 hours long (typically) and are a little more free form.  ML is meant to be as if I were spinning live at a party, and as such they are recorded (and broadcast) live and on the fly.   Many times I’ll go into a show not having a fully realized idea of what I want, but as I spin and chat, I figure it out.

I’d also like you to note that my podcasting is set up, so you can now directly download from this site, or by clicking the Apple logo in the sidebar, you can go to my iTunes page and setup the podcast to DL automatically to iTunes.  If you’re not using iTunes, just use the RSS feed.

Playlist:
1. Gramophonedzie – Why Don’t You (Original Mix)
2. Alex Kenji – Volviendo Loco (Original Mix)
3. Fergie – Exit People (Original Mix)
4. Anthea, Cellar – Ceadmon Loop (Original Mix)
5. Neuroxyde – Yebo Yebo (Neuroxyde From Berlin Rework)
6. Riktam, Bansi – Green Space (Original Mix)
7. Moby – Pale Horses (Gui Boratto’s Last Window Remix)
8. Ray Costa – Nebula (Joy Kitikonti Remix)
9. Wolfgang Gartner – The Grey Agenda (Original Mix)
10. Sia – The Girl You Lost to Cocaine (Sander Van Doorn Remix)
11. BT – Rose of Jericho (Sultan & Ned Shepard Mix)

If you know how to use it, here’s the cue file, just make sure to rename the mp3 and cue file as “If at First v.7″ NOT “If%20at%20First%20v.7″.  The cue file helps you break the mp3 into tracks when you burn it to CD -> just follow steps 2 – 4 (completely unnecessary if you’re just putting it on an mp3 player, and optional if you’re burning to CD).

I made the album cover using a great photo taken by helixxx.

I’m re-releasing my CD from a few months ago, The Many Shades of Night, for a few reasons. First of all, I never officially released it here on this site. Secondly, I’m setting up podcasting and wanted to try it out!

The Many Shades of Night is an example of the variety of electronic music and how we can be in love with it all.  It doesn’t have to always be house… or trance… or whatever.
