Very special episode today for you all. Alex Kislov has been in my life since I first got to Chicago and we decided that this is officially the 3rd chapter in our friendship especially considering it's his 3rd time on the show. But this is no ordinary episode, we are here to talk about his debut album "Dream Sequence" - a true masterpiece and work of art that is years in the making and you can tell right away how much went into creating it. "Dream Sequence" is a 10 track album featuring the vocals of Chicago House music legend Ron Carroll, globally recognized vocalist Leo Wood and not to mention his lovely wife Eliza. The album takes you on a journey through a dreamworld of sound and creativity. From start to finish, you can tell things progress in a natural but captivating way. It's really special to see Alex at this point in his career because I've honestly never seen him radiate passion like this. He really cares about and is deeply committed to his craft. Gotta respect that!

Es wird komödiantisch im FM4 Hip Hop Lesekreis. Der junge Memphis Rapper NLE Choppa versucht sich unter dem Management seiner Mutter als Memehafter Sex Clown und ist dabei ein großer Spaß. Der Hip Hop Lesekreis spricht heute über den bereits zweiten Remix seiner Nummer Slut Me Out. Das Original, dass wegen seiner Überzeichnung von Männlichkeitsklischees auch in der queeren Ballroom Szene recht gut angekommen ist, wurde letztes Jahr veröffentlicht, ein Remix mit Sexyy Redd und einem Video in bester Girls Gone Wild Spring Break Tradition folgte. Jetzt ist Slut Me Out 2 erschienen, eine Nummer, bei der der Rapper die Comedy Spirale noch eines Weite nach oben dreht. Irgendwo zwischen Youporn, Chicago House, Miami Bass der Booty Music des Detroiter Genies DJ Assault und der Interaktion von Eric Cartman mit seiner Mutter in Southpark ist Slut Me Out 2 anzusiedeln.

The final music episode of 2023 is celebrated with the podcast's very own iamRavedad. Some of you may have known him before as DJ 4Site, the resident DJ who mixes all the themes for the EstoBro TV Podcast. EstoBro begins the podcast by addressing the holiday hit iamRavedad dropped with "Looking for" (9:00) as the pair chuckle over the fact that EDM is invading holiday music every year. He also has the privilege of holding the first interview with the artist to promote his debut album House of Music (17:00) which the album's title track song is the official theme song for the podcast in 2024. EstoBro loves the album so much, that he may not even change the theme song for the podcast from here on out. The pair also share music news with festival lineup reveals, most recently with Ultra Music Festival in Miami (44:40), and how it is so tempting to go despite all the strife that goes on in the city. EstoBro and iamRaved reflect on the fun they had together at EDC Orlando and Bonnaroo this year, even teasing the idea that they possibly will return in 2024. EstoBro also celebrates iamRavedad's side project in a  podcast that is The Chicago Brothers Bears Show (71:30) where the artist also shares his passions as a sports fan.Be sure to listen to iamRavedad's debut album House of Music this holiday season.

First out of two of Ly Sander's 'Landing' album samplers released on Special place, the package presents two tracks both serviced with a dedicated remix that offer a deep yet often unheard insight into what dance music can mean. Preoccupation about the impact of mankind on the planet is nothing new, as the radio excerpt at the basis of 'Marching to where' clearly exposes. Nevertheless, climate change or the war in Ukraine remind us cruelly how access to food at a reasonable price is currently at stake for parts of the world's population albeit our heavy colonization of the earth. Perspectives are rather gloomy and this track exposes just that, with a historical perspective. Jacques Bon was kind enough to take on remixing duties. He has released music on an array of high-rated record labels including Tim Sweeney's seminal imprint, Beats In Space, Mule Musiq, Giegling, Kann, Live At Robert Johnson and Smallville Records. Not just a solo flier, Jacques also co-produced choice deep-diving joints with the likes of Christopher Rau and Chicago House pioneers, Virgo Four. And if it's difficult to leave aside the seriousness of the topic of this track Jacques brought some hope and sweetness to his mix as well as his dreamy atmosphere. And with the increased bpm it's even dancefloor friendly, hurra! https://soundcloud.com/jacquesbon https://soundcloud.com/special-place-rec https://www.instagram.com/jacquesbon_/ https://www.instagram.com/thelysander/ www.itsdelayed.com www.instagram.com/_____delayed/ www.facebook.com/itsdelayed

Hip-House mixed by Qool DJ Marv Thanks to Bob Sumner, I made a mix that I hadn't thought about doing before. About 12 hours before showtime, we talked about what he was doing at the American Black Film Festival, happening in Miami, and we spoke about the 50th anniversary of Hip Hop, which led to talking about Hip-House.I remembered, while mixing – and dancing while mixing – that I was in college when many of these songs came out. Imagine cool ass Qool DJ Marv getting it on? Yeah I did. Once again, let's get it on: Hip-House mixed by Qool DJ Marv 1 - Hip Hop Rebop - Man Parrish3 - Funky Soul Makossa (Rap) - Nairobi and The Awesome Foursome4 - Treat 'Em Right - Chubb Rock5 - Get on the Dance Floor (12" Mix) - Rob Base & DJ E-Z Rock6 - Planet E - KC Flightt7 - Talkin' All That Jazz (Dim's Radio Edit) - Stetsasonic8 - Chubbster - Chubb Rock 9 - Saturdays - De La Soul 10 - How Do I Love Thee - Queen Latifah11 - Enjoy Ya Self - Chubb Rock12 - Respect (Dancin' Danny D.

What up everyone! Today is friday May 19th 2023 and this is episode 219. It has been a few months since the last episode but we are BACK and better than ever. It is my honor to welcome back two special individuals who have now officially joined forces under their new moniker "HOTPRETTY" - Zooey Glass and Abigail are some SITB OG's and it was such a blast sitting down with them and talking about this new project. You are going to want to listen to this one people - we talked about the past, present and future of the Chicago House music scene, launching "HOTPRETTY", event curation, music production styles and influences, overcoming performance anxiety, mental health and so much more. I have known them for years - Zooey was on episode 039 and Abigail was 90!! They are some of my favorite people in and outside of music and I'm genuinely a huge fan. Cannot wait to see this next chapter unfold! linktr.ee/sherminthebooth

Well, a whole nine months since our last isolatedmix, we return in style… Scottish producer Lord Of The Isles has been high on rotation for me for about ten years now, with a string of electronic EPs across labels such as Mule Musiq, Permanent Vacation, Phonica and ESP Institue. Never guessing where he was going to push next, Neil has remained a bit of an enigma in style over the years and more recently, has captured hearts with an emotional, Poem-infused EP on Whities (more on that below) and in December just gone, a more ambient-leaning debut on Lapsus. The result is an artist that appeals to the electronic music fan in more ways than one. An artist you grow attached to as you walk alongside an ego-less evolution, welcoming new approaches and experimentation, always eager to see what he takes on next. While Neil is obviously adept a putting together a DJ mix [check], we're even more fortunate that Neil has taken a much more dedicated route to his mix contribution, with a 100% unreleased mix of his own material. ~Hi Neil, being a man of the outdoors it seems, where are you right now and what are you enjoying, outside of the music world?Not in the wilds at the moment, unfortunately! But I will be soon. I'm taking some recording equipment up north in a few weeks to hopefully finish my next album. Outside of writing music, I'm enjoying keeping fit and reading. I'm reading Under The Skin by Michael Faber right now for the second time. Subtle Thoughts by Lord Of The Isles Your style is notoriously hard to pin down (which I love), but I'd love to know how you would describe it to anyone new to your music. Deep and melodic maybe? I've always listened to all kinds of music and I've always had a very open mind in that regard. I suppose you are exposed to different things at different times throughout life. What music did you grow up on to influence it? There was a lot of Motown going on in my family very early on, and hearing stuff like Cream and Kate Bush now always transports me back in time when I hear it, as does a lot of soul, hip hop, and indie from 80s and 90s. Way too many to mention!! Growing up in the nineties, Acid House, Detroit techno, and Chicago House all played major roles in influencing my style, as did dub, dub techno, and all things ambient. Sorry, sounds all so clichéd! But it's true. Night Of The Endless Beyond by Lord Of The Isles You've recorded a more ambient-leaning isolatedmix, and a few of your most recent albums definitely veered this way too. Is this a reflection of your current taste or mood right now, or something else?It's just the way it's come together in the studio past few years, although, I am becoming aware that there's now a lot of people now that think all I do is ambient music. I have another album coming later this year that was completed over a year ago which is also ambient, but that will be the last release like that for a while I think, as the music I'm working on at the moment is definitely not ambient! Whities 029 by Lord Of The Isles Your Whities EP with Ellen Renton's vocals is definitely a personal favorite of mine. You also sampled Carl Sagan in your latest album. Can you tell me a bit about your approach to integrating guest vocals and samples?With Ellen, I write music inspired by her poems. Other vocal samples are usually things I hear in films or documentaries that resonate with me. Growing up listening to artists like the Orb, BOC, and The Black Dog has given me an appreciation for disparate vocal samples. I love the cinematic quality it adds to the atmosphere. Parabolas Of Neon by Lord Of The Isles You have a monthly radio show on Openlab, How do you go about selecting music for the show, or what can people expect? I still buy and collect a lot of music, so it's a great outlet for me to share music I love. You'll hear mostly, electronica, deep house, techno, and breakbeat. Glisk Science EP by Lord Of The Isles Your isolatedmix is 100% unreleased music, so no tracklist here. Can you tell us a bit about how you put it together?It's a bit of a hybrid set - half DJ half live, all unreleased music. It may well be the last ambient thing from me for a while. No plans to release any of it at the moment. Lastly, I read you're a candle fan (as am I) What's your latest scent?!Lol! :) I have a trial tester from an amazing new Scottish aromatherapy brand called àile. They do amazing products and are thinking about doing a candle. It's cedar wood, mandarin, and clove I think. It's great!~ astrangelyisolatedplace · isolatedmix 120 - Lord Of The Isles Listen on Soundcloud or the ASIP Podcast.Download MP3(No tracklist as all unreleased material)Artwork image by Faisal Waheed.Lord Of The Isles Bandcamp | Discogs | Soundcloud

On today's show we discuss The Chicago House, founded in 1985 during the height of the AIDS crisis, Chicago House initially served as a housing resource for those living with HIV/AIDS. Over the past three decades, they evolved, remaining steadfast in their roots to provide housing for anyone impacted or vulnerable to HIV/AIDS while expanding their services to empower individuals in the greater LGBTQ+ community.   Chicago House empowers persons living with or vulnerable to HIV/AIDS to lead healthy and dignified lives through housing and compassionate, client-centered support services.  Chicago House is committed to preventing new HIV transmissions and ensuring individuals that are faced with a diagnosis are linked to care. As part of the local and global Getting to Zero effort they provide essential health services to individuals vulnerable to HIV with a goal to eliminate the HIV epidemic by the year 2030.     ​ ​   Our guest is MICHAEL T. HERMAN (HE/HIM/HIS) Chief Executive Officer of The Chicago House.  He is what you call a born and bred Chicagoan. He grew up on the Southwest side of the city in an Irish, German, Lithuanian, and Catholic family.  The three biggest values in his home growing up were family, faith, and education. He lived directly across the street from the church where he went to elementary school. At a young age, he entered the seminary attending Quigley South Seminary located at 79th and Western. He attended college seminary at Loyola University where he received a degree in Computer Programming and a minor in philosophy.  ​ He went on in the seminary to get a masters of Divinity before being ordained a catholic priest in 1989. For 17 years, he served as a priest in the Hispanic communities of Chicago. He loved the priesthood but eventually left active ministry to live as an out gay man. After leaving the priesthood, he joined Chicago House as the CDO, Chief Development Officer. In many ways, Chicago House allowed him to continue his ministry by working with the LGBTQ communities and those most vulnerable to HIV/AIDS. After his time as CDO at Chicago House, he secured a role as VP of Philanthropy at Kohl Children's Museum. He valued his 6 years at the museum and is now thrilled to have began his work as Chief Executive Officer at Chicago House in July 2019.   He met his husband, Bernard, 23 years ago playing volleyball. During those years, they have gotten married three times with the third one finally recognized as a legal marriage.  They adopted their son from the Philippines. Although much has changed in this world during his life, the values of family, faith, and education remain constant for him.
