You might be encountering a surge of tracks labeled "Afro House." But hold on a minute – isn't that what Progressive House used to be called? This trend of rebranding classic genres isn't new. Remember when Deep House morphed into commercial House, then Future House? Great music deserves recognition on its own merits, not through constant relabeling. Speaking of great music, the recent TikTok wave has unearthed some fantastic reworked Progressive House classics. Think genre pioneers like John Creamer & Stephane K, Deep Dish, Scumfrog, and artists who masterfully used heavy percussion – Chus & Ceballos, Oscar G & Ralph Falcon, Friburn & Urik, Peter Rauhofer, and many more. Tracks like Rui Da Silva's timeless "Touch Me" are getting a fresh spin for modern dance floors, and the results are phenomenal! Back to the Future: Revisiting Millennial Dance Music The cyclical nature of dance music trends is undeniable. Right now, the spotlight's on late-90s and early 2000s classics, with artists sampling or revamping entire tracks. It's a trend we wholeheartedly support, and you can expect to hear these gems showcased in future Club Fusion and Peak Hour sets. This trend sparked a trip down memory lane for us here at Party Favorz. Remember our BackSpin series from way back in our early years? Last year, we aimed to revisit the glory days of 2000s dance music, following up on our popular Ultimate 90s House Classics series. We started with a Millennial Dance Classics series, but the sheer diversity of the decade made it tough to curate a cohesive set. After all, massive hits often land in our Top Dance Songs of the Year anyway. So, we decided to resurrect the BackSpin series! This allows us to delve deeper into specific genres that defined the 2000s dance music scene. Each BackSpin release will focus on a distinct genre, with a sprinkle of Trance and Electronica thrown in for good measure. These sets will typically span a five-year period, featuring a mix of crowd-pleasing favorites and some hidden gems ripe for rediscovery – think "It's Love (Trippin')" by Goldtrix and Andrea Brown or "Addicted To Bass" by Puretone featured in volume 1. For those seeking classic remixes by the likes of Thunderpuss, Hex Hector, and Victor Calderone, fear not! We've already covered those in our Classic Circuit Anthems series from 2014. The BackSpin Reboot: A Journey Through Millennial Dance Music Genres The rebooted BackSpin series will explore the vast and vibrant landscape of Millennial dance music, beyond the big remixes.

After traveling as much as I have ever the last couple of years and having a passport that looks older than the pyramids, this Tour De Beats has revealed so much to me. That even though no dance floor experience is the same, no party is the same and no city is the same, we are all linked by the groove. When its on (and I love to turn it on) WE ARE ONE NATION UNDER IT. Music has brought me so much joy and making this CD represents moments I’ve had from Sydney to Brazil, New York to LA and everything in between. We have a lot more dancing to do so be ready for what’s ahead. Being a part of the magic on the dance floor has been unforgettable so thank you! TRACK LISTING: 1. Piliavin and Zimbardo vs. D-Formation - Tie Me Down 2. Holly James vs. Friburn and Urik - Touch It (Tony’s Tribal Rework) 3. Friburn and Urik - I Need You 4.

In 2004, I was working about 70+ hours a week for Bellsouth (now AT&T), which didn't leave a lot of time for music, but I managed.  The problem I was having is that club music started getting really and I mean REALLY dark and depressing.  It felt like you had to be on drugs to really appreciate it; something I had long since walked away from. Production teams like Stephane K & Creamer; Friburn & Urik, Gabriel + Dresden, hell even my sweetheart Peter Rauhofer were taking the music places that I was too scared to travel down.  Gone were the days of happy house and hands in the air power anthems. Now, I realize that's not entirely true but it definitely felt that way.  Consequently, I stopped mixing that year and just focused on my work. Some say that hindsight is 20/20 and frankly they are right.  Going back and listening to these productions now, I can honestly say I appreciate them a whole lot more than I did when they were ruling the dance floor.  Peter's re-telling of A Thousand Beautiful Things by Annie Lennox fits the sentiment of the song so perfectly its beautiful perfection.  Equally, Gabriel + Dresden's bootleg remix of Save My Soul by Kristine W takes the song in unexpected territory, while capturing the beauty of the lyrics, and eerily evoking resurrection from its original meaning.  That folks takes mastery to pull off which Peter and G+D did with some serious skill. The music from the Year-End Edition 2004 is not without its faults; on the contrary, there were plenty of clunkers that ruled the charts and the floors that frankly didn't belong there.  Equally, there are some rare gems among the rough here that are definitely worth your time and attention. There are a total of four sets for 2004; give them a listen and let me know what you think.  What were your favorite tunes from this year?  I'm curious and would really like to know. For anyone wondering, redemption came in 2005 when a friend of mine dragged me to a club and I heard the Freemason's remix of Mesmerized by Faith Evans for the very first time.  I was blown away and jumped right back in again. Album : Year-end Edition 2004 | Volume 1 Genre : Circuit, House, Electro Year : 2004 Total Time : 01:18:47 1. Frankie Knuckles feat. Jamie Principle - Bac N Da Day (Morales Mix) 2.

I know I said I wasn't sure whether or not I was going to get this mix complete, but I sat down yesterday and knocked it out in about an hour.  The problem I knew I was going to have was the Janet Jackson and the Mary J. Blige tunes.  The HQ2 mix for Janet's "Someone To Call My Lover" is not very DJ friendly by any aspect.  No intro and the outro begins to slow down making it useless for beatmixing, much less keying the song with another.  "Family Affair" by MJB is more user-friendly but requires a very specific song to key into, which I knew I didn't have.  So, I just did the easiest thing possible and performed a start/stop on the Janet and managed to beatmix the MJB.  Nothing special, but it works.  From that point on, this thing just flowed flawlessly!  Overall, I'm not only surprised by how well this set came out by I am very pleased as well.  What you have in this final mix is a 2001 house lovers dream come true.  As previously stated, it contains several songs that I couldn't work in the rest of the mixes and several alternative versions from those previously used. For me, one of the sweet points is "In These Shoes" by Bette Midler.  It's been a while since I listened to these mixes, but it dawned on me that the "Mark" in the "Mark's Heel to Platforms Vocal Mix" is actually Mark Picchiotti.  Probably one his earlier mixes that I never appreciated as much as I do now.  It's a perfect t-dance alternative to Jonathan Peter's big room Sound Factory remix featured earlier.  The other surprise was Warren Clarke's sweet and funky take on J-Lo's "I'm Real".  Obviously, I didn't pay much attention to these back in the day, but they sure are nice additions this go 'round.  In fact, the same can be said for Friburn and Urik's "High Pass Mix" of PSB and Peter Rauhofer's "Break 4 Love".  However, I was disappointed in Crystal Waters' "Come On Down".  I'm not familiar with this version, which is sort of an Alex Gaudino Ibiza structured mix.  I was hoping for the original or the Tamperer mixes which use the "Price is Right" theme for the groove.  Though I'm not familiar with this version, it's decent enough to be included and I thank Eric for that.  I'm still waiting for the used maxi to show up, but couldn't wait any longer to make the mix.  You might also be wondering why I didn't go with the Ralphi Rosario Classic House mix of "And I'm Telling You I'm Not Going".  For one, typical of Rosabel and Ralphi, they used a lot of what I call "dirty beats" back then.  They were uneven and had way too much percussion, resulting in my having to painstakingly go through each beat to ensure they match up.  Frankly, I always thought that the Junior Vasquez mix was way underappreciated anyway, so I went ahead used that take instead.  The end result of that decision is outstanding.  Another song I fondly remember is Junior's bootleg take on the massive Blu Cantrell song "Hit'em Up Style" from that year.  It was never an official release but it was hot!  I want to thank Klaus for that long lost gem.  After checking it out, it was much slower than I remember, so I had to speed it up to fit in with the rest of the mix.  I don't think anyone will mind. So there you have it.  My take on 2001, the year that was.  I think the next Chrome Edition will go back and focus on some heavy hitters from the 90s before getting on to 2002.  Regardless, that will still be several months away.  For now, I think I'll start working on the next BPM Edition before getting into the Spring Edition.  I'm holding out for a few hopefuls for that mix, but I should be able to get it out by Easter.  I've got a busy week this week and have to make up for lost time from the last.  Thankfully, the rain finally stopped yesterday afternoon and it's shaping up to be a gorgeous Sunday before the rain comes back on Wednesday.  I hope everyone liked this throwback as much as I enjoyed bringing it to you.  I've got no firm dates for the next mix, just know that it's coming up.  So,
