This era marked a significant transformation, introducing Classic House Tracks that are still admired today. As we moved into the mid-90s, the interplay between Hip Hop and House Music began to fade, each genre charting its distinct path. However, the era was far from mundane; the budding Trance genre started teasing the mainstream, artists like Opus III and Josh Wink paving the way. Legends like Oakenfold and Rollo & Sister Bliss were creating waves with big room House tracks, setting the stage for their eventual renowned status. Old School House Music during this time was filled with Soulful House legends like MAW, Frankie Knuckles, and David Morales. Commercial House music was flourishing with remixers like Love To Infinity, StoneBridge, Brothers In Rhythm, and Roger Sanchez. Underground sensations like Junior Vasquez, Tony Moran, and Armand Van Helden were crafting Big Room tracks that would soon conquer the club scene. Unveiling this series is akin to opening a musical time capsule, filled with the Best 90s House Remixes that once ruled the dance floors but have since vanished from the collective memory. For instance, the "Beautiful People" mixed by C.J. became a timeless hit for Barbara Tucker. Aretha Franklin's "A Deeper Love," remixed by C + C Music Factory, symbolizes the era's profound emotions. Tracks like the Love To Infinity's Classic Paradise Club Mix of Judy Cheeks' "As Long As You're Good To Me" or the MAW Style Mix of "Everybody Be Somebody" by Ruffneck feat. Yavahn represent the artistic brilliance of the time. Junior Vasquez's Soundfactory Mix of "Your Loving Arms" by Billie Ray Martin captures the innovative spirit of the 90s Club Anthems. The Ultimate 90s House Classics series is not just a collection; it's a heartfelt tribute to an incredible era that shaped today's music landscape. It revives the 90s Club Anthems, like the Junior Vasquez 10.31 Mix of "Keep In Touch (Body To Body)" by Shades Of Love, which once pulsated through speakers around the world. Volume two of the Ultimate 90s House Classics from 1994-1995 is arriving soon. Until then, let these Old School House Music tracks transport you back to a time when dance floors were alive with energy and passion. Until the next time...ENJOY!

Party Favorz is proud to present to final House Sessions set of 2014 and as Loleatta once said “let me tell ya” this thing wreaks of a 1,000 sweaty bodies crammed into a warehouse rubbing and gyrating under the glow of a sparkling disco ball at 3 AM in the morning.  In short, I turned this MOTHERFUCKER OUT! We start out nice and sweet with the early 80s throwback SO IN LOVE by Adri Block, which channels the fabulous Evelyn King.  From there, it continues to pick up steam until BAM! You hit a brick wall the moment you run into SAY YES by Two Kings feat. the Queen.  This shit is like the Staple Sisters went to house heaven and sprinkled disco dust on all the believers down below. No strangers to the scene, Two Kings consist of the legendary Jamie Lewis, who frankly needs no introduction and Fabulous Keys another veteran stalwart that you may be more familiar with the folks he's worked with (Chaka Khan, Sheila E., James Brown) than the actual man himself.  Throw into this mix Swiss made soul singer TANJA DANKNER and you got yourself a recipe that even Julia Child couldn't have concocted. If this song is any indication of how well they work together, Party Favorz is EAGERLY awaiting their album SAY YES to drop in early January, which will include a solid mixture of chill grooves, deep house, and funky house music. Another favorite veteran around here is the incredible Mark Picchiotti who is introducing us to Chicago's Rufus Proffit.  SHELTER takes us back to the 70s while Marks keeps the beats centered around funky house bliss and Rufus delivers a deliciously soulful vocal that harkens back to another place and time.  Those that know me also know that besides being a dedicated house-head, I am a HUGE 70s soul, disco, and funk fan and my encyclopedic brain's endorphins go into overdrive when I hear something as sweet and funky as SHELTER.  Trust. This leads me to the 70s disco classic SPANK by Ron Louis Smith.  Originally performed by Jimmy “Bo” Horne back in the day, Ron actually wrote the song and brings it back to us with his vocals in what can only be described as PURE FUNK.  While Jimmy's excellent version had that classic “Sunshine” sound, Ron casts it in the era in which it was originally written.  This is definitely a get up off your ass floor stomper! Jay Vegas is back with another winner in LUV DRUG with its infectious funky house beats and what appears to be a Loleatta Holloway monologue asking folks “is there anybody out there that has been with someone and wishes they were with someone else.” I'm convinced this IS her because this is so classic Loleatta.   Jay takes this monologue and wraps it around pure house bliss adding another gold star to his burgeoning catalog. The House Sessions wouldn't be true to itself if I didn't include two re-worked 90s house classics.  So, I worked in Ruffneck and Yavahn's EVERYBODY BE SOMEBODY and the Nightcrawlers PUSH THE FEELING ON, which have been updated for today's floors.  Now, folks, I don't care how you bend it, stretch it or tweak it, cause you ain't NEVER gonna break it.  These songs are as good now as when they were originally being served up back in the day. Another goto song at the moment is the super deep and funky GO ALL NIGHT by Gorgan City and the always fabulous Jennifer Hudson.  This song IS THE SHIT and one of two Jennifer has out at the moment.  Watch out of the fabulous Freemason's mix of this song as well.  Clearly getting a big push by Gorgan City's label, I fully expect even bigger things for this song. I wanted to close the set out with Kiesza's latest NO ENEMIES, but the full-length remixes aren't scheduled for release until November 24th so we'll just have to settle for the MASSIVE Jax Jones rework of Duke Dumont's WON'T LOOK BACK.  I know, I know violins, please.  It's like, okay twist my arm, I'll drop it in (as if I needed any coercion) LOL. That's what I got going on for your weekend.

Wrapping up the final installment of BPM Edition 2009 v1, I take you on a journey of some serious electro-funk.  As promised, I've added some sweet re-makes from the 90's.  First up, is the Buzz Junkies take on the massive Darude classic "Sandstorm".  Okay, that song is really early millennium, so it's a couple of years off, but who's counting?  Anyhoo, for those too young to remember, this was so big, it even got played on top 40 radio.  It spurned so many remixes (official and unofficial) it was nauseating.  Then came the mashups.  OMG, I can't begin to tell you how many of those there were (and you thought "Pjanoo" mashups were overdone).  Regardless, the BJs took this one by the horn and blow it through the roof!  Then we've got "Sweet Dreams" a remake of the LaBouche classic, though the vocals aren't up to par when compared to Melanie Thornton (may she rest in peace), but the ReCover Project lay on a nice electro layer and dropped the cheesy rap for the perfect trip down memory lane that can still fill floors.  This, of course, is followed by the Ruffneck classic "Everybody Be Somebody" which made an appearance on one of my 90's classic editions from last year.  Thomas Gold and Matthias Menck give it a serious electro workout that's not only worthy of the original but damn near surpasses it!  I also had two 80's remakes ("Electric Avenue" and "She Blinded Me with Science") that were decent enough, but still not worthy of this mix.  Possibly the biggest surprise in this category is "Magic" by Vinny Troia & Dave Aud?.  Why?  Because this is actually a remake of an old Barry Manilow tune "Could This Be Magic" from the seventies that was later turned into a #1 disco hit for none other than Donna Summer.  Granted, they dropped the over the top drama of Barry's original and left out the sweeping strings of Donna's version, and just left the lyrics, re-creating a different song altogether.  Is it great?  Not really, but I was intrigued by the way they used the lyrics to create an entirely new song, thus its inclusion. Other songs definitely worth mentioning are the Freemasons' re-rub of "If" originally from their "Shakedown" album a couple of years back.  In fact, I think this is probably the sixth or seventh release from that album that got re-worked for single release.  If you remember Gusto' "Disco's Revenge" and Katherine Ellis' "Touch Me" originally appeared on that album and went on to greater heights in clubland during 2008.  Probably the song that surprised me the most is Kidda's "Under the Sun".  Used in a Bacardi commercial, it apparently was floating around the Internet last year, but didn't get an official release until mid-November.  How I managed to miss this is beyond me, because this song absolutely rocks!  Just think of the good old days when Fatboy Slim was rocking it with the likes of "I See You Baby" and "Rockafeller Skank" and you'll get the picture.  Equally, the Jason Heard vs. Flashlight "My Girl" is a dirty, nasty romper with a funky guitar riff that will stick in your head long after you leave the club.  I expect huge things for this song in the coming months.  Rounding out the mix you get "Everybody" by Russia's Rudenko.  While it may be too soon to tell, he is someone you might want to watch because this song is smoking! As I got down to the end of the mix, I still had a handful of great tunes that I didn't use.  So, I've moved those off to the side for use in the next BPM installment, probably sometime in March or after WMC.  Weather is really cooperative today and it looks like we're going to have a fabulous weekend so mixing won't be in the cards as Rick and I will certainly take advantage of the beautiful weather.  Nevertheless, I promise to have the 2009 Winter Edition up and ready by the end of next week.  I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend and I'll catch you guys next week.  Until then.ENJOY!
