Chat with DJ and Producer Hayz Plus Exclusive Hard House Guest Mix

Episode 30

Thursday, September 14, 2023 • Duration 01:09:49

It’s session 30 of the Hard Dance Happy Hour. I’m Clare Marie. Welcome back. And if you’re new to the podcast, a huge hello and welcome to you.

So for the past 2 months I haven’t had a guest on the HDHH. Last month I had a break from the podcast to go on holiday to France which was absolutely lush. And July’s session of the HDHH I published my mix from the Friday night at the Tidyland Weekender. If you haven’t yet had a listen, please do go and check that out.

So having 2 months off essentially I was really excited to have a chat with this months guest.

He’s everyone’s favourite from Bristol, Nick Hayward, also known as Hayz.

We talk about Nick’s music production journey including his official remix of Basement Jaxx’s Red Alert. He helped me to translate some Bristolian phrases which I loved as it’s the most friendly accent in my opinion. We also talk about the recent Tidyland Weekender, and snorting ants and woodlice as you do. We had a great laugh so I hope you enjoy it.

If you haven’t yet, please do subscribe to or follow the podcast on your favourite platform. If you’re listening on Apple Podcasts, please take a second to give the podcast a star rating. It would be hugely appreciated.

There is also a show support link in the podcast description if you fancy supporting the Hard Dance Happy Hour for the price of a coffee.

So, let’s welcome Hayz to the Hard Dance Happy Hour.

Clare Marie at the Tidyland Weekender 2023 Hard House Mix

Episode 29

Thursday, July 27, 2023 • Duration 01:07:46

It’s session 29 of the Hard Dance Happy Hour. I’m Clare Marie. Welcome back. And if you’re new to the podcast, a huge hello and welcome to you.

Last month I invited Lee Haslam on to the podcast and what a pleasure that was. Lee’s exclusive guest mix was also one of my favourites so far on the Hard Dance Happy Hour. So, if you haven’t checked out last month’s session already, please do.

So this month I had decided to use the Tidyland Weekender as an opportunity to catch up with as many of my previous guests as possible.
I had a quick catch up with 5 lovely humans before I hit some technical issues.

Whilst I can’t use the footage that I did manage to get before the GoPro issues, due to the audio quality, I will be uploading the videos to Facebook and my YouTube channel over the next week so please keep an eye out for those.
I had the pleasure of having a chat with Paul Clark, Jason Nawty, Adam Dixon, Jon Hemming and Edd Croft.

I did not want to miss a month of the podcast, So instead of a Tidyland Weekender catch up, I took the decision to record my mix from the Weekender and put this out instead.

I had the opportunity to play Room 4 on the Friday night at 1am and god was that fun. The feedback I received afterwards literally blew my mind, so thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone who stuck out the sweat box to dance to my set.

I hope you enjoy it :)
