Party Favorz

As promised, I’ve got the second installment of the Deep Edition v11 ready for delivery.  Where as the first mix was tailor-made for the club, this mix takes a more laid back approach to the progressive sound.  It’s kind of a chill mix, but not really.  There’s definitely some slammin’ tunes here, but not necessarily anything you would drop at 4am in the morning, unless you want to be pelted with beer cans…LOL.  Of course, it was intentional to separate the two different approaches out.  This way, after a long night of partying, you can go back and zone out using this mix as your backdrop.

Keeping up the pace, I’ll be back Sunday with the next House Edition followed on Tuesday with the final Electro-Funk mix.  I know, I know everyone is waiting for the Holiday Edition and I promise it’s coming soon.  I’m just holding out to see if I can get my hands on some new Whitney or Deborah…hopefully the gods will shine their light on Party Favorz and make it happen.  If not, I’ve got a lot of great stuff for that mix anyway.  In the meantime, have a great weekend and as always…ENJOY!

We now resume our regularly scheduled programing…LOL!  I gotta tell ya, November has been one fracking crazy ass month.  From Halloween, my birthday, the elections, protesting “No on Prop 8″ and trying to get all of my doctor appointments, tests etc. scheduled before I lose my health insurance at the end of the month has been no easy task.  I’m pleased to say that I got it ALL done!  That in and of itself is a miracle.  Then, there’s the mixes and boy oh boy have I got a banger for you guys!  Originally, I started out wanting to make a final electro-funk mix for the year.  That’s now evolved into three separate mixes with the same cover art (in different colors) for deep, house and electro.  I was sitting on too much good stuff to let it go to waste.  In fact, as I dug deeper, I ended up going WAY over my music budget for the month.  Consider this a gift, because that won’t happen again.  What I’ve decided to do is stagger the releases over the next couple of weeks.  For instance, today you get deep take 1, Monday will be house take 1 and Wednesday electro-funk take 1 followed by take 2 every other day after.  The fact is, these mixes are long, so this allows you to digest your favorite before the next installment.  That is unless you’re one of those that digs everything I post, in which case, you’ve got your work cut out for you.

After I get these mixes up over the next couple of weeks, I’ll be working on the Holiday Edition and then the year-end edition.  I’m trying to put up a forum for everyone (that something, something I had promised) but that’s going to take a little longer than anticipated.  I’m also now on Facebook and you are welcome to join me there by going to my profile and clicking on the link.

So sit back and relax, cause this is one seriously phatt mix for all you prog-heads.  I’ll be back on Monday with the next installment of the House Edition (which ROCKS!).  I hope everyone enjoys what’s left of your holiday/weekend, until the next time…ENJOY!

I’m serving up the final installment of the Deep Edition v10, a mix that got way out of control as far as I’m concerned.  It’s not that the music isn’t any good, but I really need to learn how to start editing myself…LOL.  If I had to rate this overall series, I’d probably give it a B+ taking off points for being bloated if not overindulgent.  At least now I can start focusing on the next House Edition which will be a serious departure from these progressive tunes.  I already see some issues regarding length there, but I’ll do my best to keep it down to two mixes, each within a reasoned timeframe.  It’s not that I can’t do it, it’s just that sometimes I kinda let the music take me away; can you say “ground control to Major Tom”?  That being said, Party Favorz wants to know what you think.  Was this overindulgent on my part, was it just right or did it flat out suck?  Leave me your thoughts, I promise not to take offense…well maybe…LOL.

Tomorrow, I have the next installment of the guest DJ series featuring DJ Mikey Cee from down under.  After previewing his mixes, I can honestly say he doesn’t disappoint.  For now, just sit back and relax…and as always, ENJOY!

As promised, I’ve got the third installment of this series for you guys (and gals).  Unlike its predecessors, this mix is darker and moodier and less commercial.  That is until you get to the last song, Morgan Page’s latest offering which is more mainstream prog.  I’ll be back tomorrow with the final installment and then I can move on to the next House Edition which will be a definite change of mood.

I see that our subscriptions have gone up considerably ever since I joined the Widgetbox LGBT community.  I want to welcome all of the newbies.  Just so you know, the Deep series is not for everyone (particularly in the U.S.).  Stick around because there’s always something for everyone.

I hope everyone has a great work week…Enjoy!

Sorry for the delay in getting this out today.  I’ve been bogged down with router issues and on the phone with Linksys pretty much all morning.  Then, my mom calls and she’s having computer problems.  Since she’s in Texas and I’m in Georgia, I usually just log into her computer and fix whatever needs fixing.  This time, her monitor is out.  After troubleshooting with her over the phone, I came to the conclusion she needs a new monitor.  Of course, she decided it would be best to get a newer and faster computer…LOL.  All she needed was an excuse to take it to my dad (even if her CPU was fine, he doesn’t know anything about computers).  Anyway, I can use my employee discount from Dell and picked out a really sweet deal for her.  I called a buddy of mine back home who’s in IT, and he agreed to go over and set it up for her and transfer all of her files at no charge.  At least, that will save me a lot of time on the phone with her.  I went ahead and got her the 4 year extended warranty so I can now just refer her to Dell when she has a problem…LOL.  I built my computer about 2 1/2 years ago and was thinking about swapping the motherboard and processor out this next month.  However, looking at Dell and the current prices with my discount, I could pick up what I want for about the same price with extended warranty…so I’m thinking what the heck.  My car is all taken care of and I do love new stuff like computers and stereo equipment.  I don’t know, sometimes I just can’t help myself.  As you can probably guess, next to house music and mixing, gadgets are my thing.  I definitely get on a high when I buy something new to play and tinker around with.

Anyway, I finally got this post put together for your listening pleasure and will try to have the third installment up early tomorrow so I can get back on the phone with Linksys and troubleshoot with their “expert” or so I’m told.  In keeping with Take 1, this mix is ultra long.  Hey, who was it that said “excess is best”.  Okay, that may not always be true, but in this case I think it applies.  I also got notice that I received another donation from IK in the UK.  Thank you very much, and folks keep ‘em coming.  Like I said, I’ll be in the clear next month so every little bit helps.  I hope everyone enjoys the rest of their weekend and I’ll be back tomorrow with Take 3.  Until then…ENJOY!

Update:  I’ll tell you what…it’s been one of those days.  I’ve successfully uploaded twice already to Podbean and when I go to import the podcast to my download folder, it doesn’t show up.  What the f@#$!  Can I get a break or what?  Patience is a virtue of which I have very little right now.  If this doesn’t work, I’ll just pop a top, sit back, relax and try again tomorrow.  After all, it is Sunday and I’ve already pissed most of it away.  Geez.

Update #2:  I got a response indicating that my username and password had been reset due to my account being previously locked.    Anyway, better late than never.

P.S. Boypixel, email me from the ‘about me’ section and I’ll hook you up. -K

It’s been one heck of a week that had me running around like a chicken with my head cut off.  After having my car engine replaced (thank God for that 100,000 mile warranty) and replacing my brakes, I finally got all new tires and my car runs like new.  Not that anyone gives a rat’s ass, but for me that’s great…LOL!  Frankly, I had finished these mixes up about 2 weeks ago and decided to go back yesterday and start going through them.  I went back to Beatport and purchased four more songs and dropped them in where appropriate.  For the most part, this turned out to be a massive four set mix that was pretty much done in one take (with the exception of the new additions).  Only one song got the edit treatment on Take 4, because it clocked in at 11:00, which is way too long.  Finding it difficult to edit myself this go around, I stopped each mix when I encountered a roadblock; meaning when I couldn’t find a way to mix out of the last song or just didn’t want to bother.  Regardless, this entire four set is comprised of deep, progressive and tech house with a good deal of mainstream prog in the mix.  Figuring that no one was feeling my last Deep Edition, I decided to give the people what they want.  Considering the majority of these mixes were all completed in one take, I have to say I kicked some serious ass!  Not to pat myself on the back or anything, but yeah, it’s that good.  Sometimes, my best work is done without second guessing myself and this would be a perfect example.

From now until the end of the month, it’s going to be busy, busy, busy!  I’ll be releasing one mix a day through Tuesday of this series and hope to have my next House Edition up by the next weekend.  For those of you that are big fans of my Beach House series that I put out in July, you’ll be pleased to know that this mix follows in that same vein.  It’s all about frivolous, fun and funky house…yeah baby!  After that, I’ll be upping my Halloween Edition which is shaping up quite nicely.  I put that one off because I’m waiting on the new Britney, Debby Holiday, Deborah Cox and Madonna tunes to drop.  If they don’t, they’ll be pushed out to my Holiday Edition in December.  In addition to all this goodness, I have about three more guest DJ sets I’ll be showcasing in the next few weeks.  So, we gotta a lot in store for you guys.  From progressive, electro, funky and mainstream, there will be something for everyone and enough to make your ears bleed.

Financially, I’ll be out of the woods next month, so in the meantime, if you could find it in your heart to make a donation to help cover my Podbean charges by the end of the month, that would be greatly appreciated.  I do want to thank DB for his recent $20 donation, that was very generous.  I hope everyone has a great weekend and be sure to check back each day for the next take on this series.  In the meantime, sit back and listen to the sounds of the underground and as always…ENJOY!

The first day of Autumn is almost here, and the weather in the ATL is certainly fitting.  We finally got some sun yesterday, so it was only fair for me to get out and fart around the city.  Sorry, but the day was too nice to stay at home and work on the next post.  Besides, I had to get some car work done…LOL.  Actually, I wish I had a laptop so I could get two things done at once.  If I’m going to be sitting around the dealership for a couple of hours, might as well take advantage of the wasted time.  Their coffee and stale donuts don’t exactly carry a person for very long.  Oh well, it’s finally here and ready for your listening pleasure.  Just remember, this take contains more gray than color, so it is definitely deeper and darker than its predecessor.

I’ll be finishing up the cover art for our next guest, DJ Steve Henderson out of Chicago.  This guy has a resume that puts most to shame, so I’m really excited about what he’s going to drop on us.  I hope everyone has a fabo weekend and until the next time…ENJOY!
