Pulling inspiration from a mix of genres—NuDisco, Disco House, Tech House, and good old-fashioned House Music—"All About the Bass" is a masterful blend of everything that makes Funky House Music so irresistible. Each track seamlessly transitions into the next, keeping dancers and listeners on their toes with something fresh and unexpected at every turn. I won’t dive too deep into the details of this set because, frankly, the music speaks for itself. As we get closer to the end of the year, I wanted to give everyone a heads-up about what’s in the pipeline between now and then. I’ve got a new Chill Out set I just started working on, but I’ve also got a lot of medical shit this week, so the release may be slightly delayed. We’ll see. That will be followed by our final Club Fusion set of the year—the annual "Jingle Electric", featuring all the hottest Dance Club songs heading into the holidays. After that, we’ll drop our annual "Holiday Edition", which brings HOT Santas and even hotter tribal beats for the circuit boys. Next up, we’ll roll out the "Top Dance Songs of the Year" set, packed with the biggest Dance Club songs that defined 2024. Every hit makes the cut—even the ones we’re not fans of—because if it lit up clubs worldwide, it deserves its spot. Finally, we’ll close out the year with the annual (yes, I’m saying it a lot, but it’s relevant) "Blow Your Own Horn" series. This final set is a mix of the year’s biggest songs and Dance Club classics reworked into a roof-raising style that’ll shake the dancefloor. It’s our final kiss-off to the year while welcoming in the new one—and trust me, it’s gonna be epic! Until the next time...ENJOY!

The sheer amount of racism, misogyny, xenophobia, and homophobia spoken loud and clear with Kamala Harris's defeat is staggering. My prediction? Trump will probably last six months to a year before Vance moves to have him replaced under the 25th Amendment. The guy’s a rambling, dementia-addled buffoon, so that shouldn’t be too hard. Project 2025 will start checking off every box on their agenda from day one. Now that SCOTUS has handed the president king-like powers, I wouldn't be shocked if this administration takes over all media and silences others, building its own propaganda machine. NATO will be dissolved, we'll pull out of the Paris Climate Accord, Putin will wipe out Ukraine and start moving on former NATO allies, and China will seize Taiwan. Trump or Vance will undo the Chips and Science Act, which poured nearly a trillion dollars into bringing chip manufacturing back to the U.S. Abortion bans will go nationwide, and with our Senate lost, Justice Thomas and Alito will step down and be replaced with younger ideologues, sealing white nationalist control over the highest court for a generation. LGBTQ rights? Gone. Contraception? Banned. Education will become a luxury, and kids will be working fields once every immigrant, legal or not, is deported. If Trump enacts a 20% tariff on all imports and 60% on anything from China, expect everything — including food — to quadruple in price. And that's just the beginning. There's a religious agenda waiting in the wings, and we’ll see soon enough how that nightmare unfolds. I debated whether to release the latest two volumes of the Throwback series since they were meant as a Victory Dance Party. Honestly, I’m relieved I didn’t pull the trigger early. There's absolutely nothing to celebrate — unless you're part of the 50% of bigots who are just fine with these fanatics targeting others, at least until it boomerangs back to you. And it will. For now, I’m cutting all unnecessary expenses for this podcast. I’d already planned to make this my final year, but you may see some slowdowns on the website and a loss of translation services as Rick and I figure out our next steps. For now, we’re stuck in this shitshow along with everyone else. If I can keep it together, I’ll continue my regular releases through the end of the year. Until the next time...

And this set more than delivers. Bursting at the seams with peak-hour anthems, we’ve packed it with tracks from your favorite divas—old and new—including Kylie, Rihanna, Celine, Madonna, Lady Gaga, Britney (BITCH), Taylor Swift, Kelly Rowland, Beyoncé, Shakira, Loleatta Holloway, Christina Aguilera, Charli XCX, and Billie Eilish. Believe us, it doesn’t get any realer than this. 11 Days to Protect Our Rights: Why This Election Matters With only 11 days until election day, now is the time for our final message to anyone considering sitting this one out or voting third party. The stakes couldn’t be higher, especially for the LGBTQ community. This election will impact marriage equality, workplace protections, access to PrEP, housing rights, government employment (including military service), and women's reproductive rights like abortion, birth control, IUD, IVF, Mifepristone, the morning after pill, and yes, condoms. It will shape gun control, voting rights, and even the future of free speech. This isn’t hyperbole—the outcome will profoundly impact your everyday life. Hell, Republicans are even going after your porn. Porn Hub has already stopped operating in Texas, Alabama, Arkansas, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, Montana, North Carolina, Utah, and Virginia. This includes gay porn, which has been upheld under the First Amendment but has been steadily eroded ever since by SCOTUS. The recent SCOTUS decision in Trump vs. United States grants unprecedented powers to the President, essentially making the office a monarchy. Under another Trump administration, there’s nothing to prevent an assault on our constitutional rights, including due process in our pursuit of life, liberty, and happiness. Some might think that voting for Jill Stein, who reappears every four years like a cicada to disrupt elections, is a viable option. This misguided choice effectively hands the election to Trump. Voting for Kamala Harris, on the other hand, ensures your continued freedom to speak out on issues like the Middle East without risking violence or repression—a stark reality we could face if Trump returns to power and enacts martial law. I urge you to vote—vote early or drop off your absentee ballot at your nearest dropbox (not mail), as Rick and I will be doing today. This election is nothing less than a choice between fascism and our open, free society. Our right to live authentically, to speak openly, and to challenge injustice depends on it. Our Republic, our freedoms,

I hadn’t realized just how dominant the Rock Dance influence was during this time, but looking back, it was everywhere. Many tracks from that era didn’t make it into these two volumes, but one that certainly stands out (next to Kelly Clarkson’s “Since You’ve Been Gone” on Volume 2) is the Jacques Lu Cont Thin White Duke remix of “Mr. Brightside” by The Killers. This song was massive, and you practically couldn’t escape it. This period also marked the rise of another French DJ besides David Guetta: Bob Sinclar. Though he’d been honing his craft since the late '80s, it wasn’t until this era that he seemingly exploded onto the scene with hits like “Love Generation,” “World, Hold On (Children of the Sun),” and “Rock This Party (Everybody Dance Now).” His meteoric popularity even led to him headlining one of Hugh Hefner’s parties at the Playboy Mansion. The event was later released as a two-volume set of House and Disco, aimed at the jet-set crowd. David Guetta, of course, is also in the mix here with some of his early work, including Juliet’s “Avalon” and the huge “Love Don’t Let Me Go.” As promised, we replaced the rock version of Roger Sanchez’s “Turn On the Music” with the Axwell Electro House remix, which was the go-to version at the time. Paul Oakenfold (another 90s mainstay) was enjoying renewed success during this era, hitting #1 with “Faster Kill Pussycat,” featuring the incredible vocals of Brittany Murphy (may she rest in peace). For those wondering where this year’s earlier hit “Perfect (Exceeder)” originated — it’s straight from this time period, and we’ve included the Martijn Ten Velden remix, which stays true to the original but is more DJ-friendly. We also have to give major props to Peter Rauhofer (may he rest in peace) for his prolific output during this time. His remixes, which blended Progressive and Electro House, had wide appeal across dance floors. We’ve highlighted his stellar work on “Beautiful” by Christina Aguilera, “Killer” by Seal, and “Maneater” by Nelly Furtado — all of which hit #1 on the Dance Club charts. While we wanted to include his remix of the Vanity 6/Prince-penned “Nasty Girl” by Inaya Day, we decided it was a bit too much from one producer. Two DJ duos that went on to achieve massive success are Moto Blanco, represented here with Mary J. Blige’s “Be Without You” (originally credited as Bobby Blanco), and Freemasons, who shine on Beyoncé’s “Deja Vu” and Faith Evans’ sassy “Mesmerized” — a personal favorite.

This set specifically focuses on 2005-2006. Electro House had already been bubbling up from the underground, but by 2005, we saw the rise of future DJs who would later become household names. People like David Guetta, Axwell, Kaskade, Fedde Le Grande, and Dave Aude, to name a few. This period also brought me back into the scene after having dropped out because the music from 2002-2004 had become too druggy, dark, and frankly, depressing. I just wasn't feeling what Stephane K & Creamer were putting out at the time. It wasn’t until Rick was out of town, and I went to a gay club in Atlanta with my bestie, LeAnn, that I realized the music was shifting. Hearing the Freemasons mix of "Lovin' You More" and "Mesmerized" lit a spark in me, and I knew the landscape was changing—bringing back my excitement for the scene. By this time, the big room stylings of Thunderpuss (Barry Harris and Chris Cox) had come to an end. However, Chris Cox carried on with their big tribal sound, while Victor Calderone, Hex Hector, Tony Moran, and Ralphi Rosario continued topping the Dance Club charts. Peter Rauhofer ventured into darker, progressive sounds—sometimes hitting the mark, other times not—but he was still in high demand, commanding high prices for his shows. If you're craving those memorable hits, Party Favorz has you covered. Check out our Top Dance Songs of 2000-2009 and Top Dance Songs of 1996-1999 sections, where you'll find the biggest chart-toppers in the U.S. For those more into the circuit anthems from this era, head over to our Classic Circuit Anthems section, where a 4-volume set awaits to blow you away. Over the next several years, the production styles of these early 2000s pioneers began to fade, making room for newer DJs like Avicii, Deadmau5, Calvin Harris, Soul Seekers, Wideboys, Freemasons, Moto Blanco, Seamus Haji, and soon after, Swedish House Mafia, among many others. The following decade was truly an exciting time for the Dance Club scene, with EDM becoming the dominant genre, alongside massive festivals that resembled rock concerts. One thing that didn’t change was the length of the songs. Unlike today’s musical landscape, where dance tracks often clock in at under 4 minutes, DJs back then continued the tradition of long, epic songs, just like their predecessors. I did very little editing here to let listeners experience true club mixes, with full builds and progression, instead of the short, catchy hooks that dominate now. It’s worth noting that while Electro House didn’t completely dominate the ...

This collection features the biggest bangers currently making waves! We kick things off with the fabulous "Finally" by Swedish House Mafia and Alicia Keys. This dream collaboration reimagines the 2001 house classic by Kings of Tomorrow (a.k.a. Sandy Rivera) into a sweeping anthem, showcasing Ms. Keys's incredible vocals. I can’t recall a more unexpected and mesmerizing pairing since David Guetta and Kelly Rowland electrified the dance floor with "When Love Takes Over" back in 2009. Next up is a brand-new track from Canada’s pop princess turned urban queen, Nelly Furtado. After a seven-year hiatus, her collaboration with Tove Lo and SG Lewis delivers an electro banger that seamlessly bridges her earlier work with Timbaland. The singer is in fantastic vocal form and looks as fabulous as ever, while Don Diablo’s searing progressive remix is sure to captivate club-goers. Italian DJ Piero Pirupa, who previously reworked the rock classic "Another Brick in the Wall," returns with a hard-hitting remix of Nirvana’s "Smells Like Teen Spirit." Grunge was always ripe for an EDM makeover, and this remix elevates the original to new heights. Jerome Robins & Karsten Sollors take on Rihanna's classic "Don't Stop the Music," transforming it into a BIG HOUSE tune that’s bound to blow the roof off any venue. Their version does justice to the original while opting out of the MJ "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'" chant—frankly, it didn’t need it. Martin Ikin is riding high with his chopped tribute to Beyoncé's "Crazy For You," titled "Crazy 4 U." Paired with "7 Seconds" by James Hype, these tracks highlight the diversity of styles in this set. We also feature sweeping anthems like the elegant "Tears" by John Summit and Paige Cavell, alongside Max Styler's progressive track before closing out with his techno smash, "Addiction." In between all this goodness are some heart-tugging and emotionally uplifting songs you may or may not have heard yet. This shift in the set allows listeners to breathe before transitioning to a harder note. Tracks like "Beautiful & Young" (a Lana Del Rey remake) by Harpoon, "Hold Me" by Freejak, "Wish You Knew" by Carlita, and "My Love 2024" by Alex Wann, Route 94, and Jess Glynne all deserve attention. While some lean towards Afro house, others showcase a more progressive structure, but they all mesh beautifully. Finally, we have the latest from Chappell Roan. I debated including her new track "Hot To Go!" due to the controversy surrounding her recent comments.

Lately, House Music has been crossing over into the mainstream, with the excellent Nic Fanciulli and Robert Courois track "Set Me Free" sitting atop Beatport's Top 100 and trending on many Spotify dance playlists. However, the song that's got us all worked up at Party Favorz is the opening track, "Let's Go" by Jaden Bojsen. This track is ripe for remixes, and while I've seen some floating around, I'm not certain if they're official. I'm calling attention to this song because it channels late '80s and early '90s House Music, perfectly setting the tone for most of this set. I fully expect it to feature on our next Dance Club set (dropping soon), as I want to push it hard. In the meantime, be sure to add it to your Spotify and Apple Music playlists. While this set sticks to our current House floor favorites, there's a good mix of Disco House and even some French House we're really into at the moment, giving it a nice balance. A personal favorite of mine is "Delicious" by Risk Assessment, which lifts the Acid House classic "Theme From S.E.X. Express," slows it down to a slinky 120 BPM, and throws in some classic Deee-lite riffs. If you know, you know. If you don’t — you’ll be into it soon enough. This set has been on heavy rotation in my car because I can’t get enough of it. It just hits all the right notes, and I think even those who aren’t typically fans of our Funky House series will enjoy it. That's all I’ve got for your weekend pleasure. Until next time…ENJOY!

Initially, I wasn't certain how mixing in her current releases with her biggest hits from 10, 15 years ago would work so I dropped in several updated bootlegs that stayed true to the originals, while modernizing those songs for today's dance floors. I kept several of the original remixes from the time of their release because they work just as well now as they did when they were originally released. I finally got around to perfecting the remastering of older material to tone down pitchy high ssss you hear in some songs, expanded the dynamics on others that sounded a bit flat and punching up the bass to round it out so it didn't sound too cold like much of the original software used to create the mixes. This is a time-consuming process but with the help of ChatGPT, it made it much easier to be able to fine-tune these settings. I couldn't be happier and plan on deploying some of these techniques in future releases (especially Circuit & Anthems where many of the DJs don't use plugins for a more professional sound). All the remaining big hits like "On A Night Like This," "Spinnig Around," "Slow," "Love At First Sight," "Into the Blue," "The One," and "Breathe" are included here along with many current releases since "Tension" plus rare gems that never charted in the U.S. but had a minor prescence elsewhere. This truly is the Kylie Minogue wet dream all the gay boys have been waiting for. I only hope that I did the Queen justice. I want ot thank Jack P, Dirk S, Ian A, Paul S, Andrew A, Hans R, David J, Paul B, Taylor OD, Joe S, Glenn A, Nicholas J, Earl K, Michael B, Al F, Adam G, Ignacio G, Casper Y, Doug B, and Raul G for their continued support. I literally could not do this without your help. I you haven't already, please consider donating to our efforts in bringing you the finest dance club music anywhere on the internet.

Kylie is Australia's biggest-selling artist, with over 80 million albums sold worldwide. She’s considered the "Princess of Pop" behind Madonna, the "Queen of Pop," and is adored by millions of gay men around the globe. Currently, she’s holding a residency at the Venetian in Las Vegas for a series of sold-out shows and has recently signed a multimillion-dollar deal with Netflix for an upcoming documentary about her life. It was a long time coming when Kylie joined Madonna on her "Celebration Tour" for a performance of the iconic Gloria Gaynor classic "I Will Survive" and Kylie's own "Can't Get You Out of My Head." While I can no longer attend concerts, just watching two of my all-time favorite divas perform together brought tears to my eyes. Weird, I know—because I rarely get emotional, especially over artists I worship but treat as any other person in life—but it really hit me hard. Here at Party Favorz, we adore Kylie Minogue and all her achievements, which is why we’re honoring her with her third induction into the Diva Hall of Fame. These two volumes (with Volume II dropping next weekend) are packed with all of Kylie’s biggest hits, along with her current releases and collaborations. The sets feature some original remixes and a few bootlegs, blending her classic tracks with the current music scene. These sets bring Kylie into the 21st century, where old and new complement each other for a seamless tribute like no other. In my last post, I mentioned that downloading these sets would require a $10 donation per volume. While I have the ability to set that up, I just don’t have the time right now because I’m juggling other issues (recently discussed) along with managing this podcast. So, these two volumes—and everything else for the remainder of the year—will remain free for all to enjoy. However, I know that two of you are posting some of these mixes on Mixcloud (yes, I know who you are) and House-Mixes.com, and passing off the work as your own. I really wish you wouldn’t because it hurts my traffic and my ability to sustain this podcast through donations which doesn't even cover my monthly costs. I’m too busy to issue takedown notices, but I’m appealing to your better angels by asking you nicely to stop. As I mentioned earlier, Volume II will drop next weekend. After that, Party Favorz will be back to full capacity. I subscribe to my DJ service in 90-day periods, and I had to cancel it because of money issues. I’m waiting until after the 15th to renew,

This set is structured a bit differently from past efforts. We typically utilize key mixing for our podcasts, allowing for smoother transitions and a more pleasant listening experience. However, in this episode, the keys aligned perfectly, enabling us to load most of the Tea Dance-style tracks upfront before transitioning into the big circuit tribal beats you're accustomed to. Think of it as a slow build to the big room sound. Don't be fooled though, there's fire from the beginning. We have several notable entries, including the Superchumbo remix of the 80s gay anthem classic "Why" by Bronski Beat featuring a guest vocal by Neil Tennant of the Pet Shop Boys. This was released in conjunction with a newly remastered and expanded edition of their queer classic "Age of Consent" album, a coming-of-age album for young queers in the early 80s. That song is quickly followed up by a remake of Madonna's "Into the Groove" by Drew G, surprisingly released around the same time as the Bronski Beat album in the 80s. Drew transforms the original dance groove into a big room scorcher, reimagining the song for late-night circuit audiences. There are countless Madonna remakes, but this version is truly one for the history books. Since we're on 80s throwbacks, Jace M & Toy Armada deliver the unexpected "Heaven Is a Place on Earth" by Belinda Carlisle. A proud LGBTQ+ community supporter and gay icon, Carlisle (of Go-Go's fame) shines in this remix. Jace and Toy's signature big room anthem style turns the giant pop song into a sweeping, hypnotic sing-along that captures the original's spirit. Don't miss it. Of course, we've got a plethora of new material from the diva of the moment, Chappell Roan, as well as Katy Perry, Kesha, Hayla, Anne-Marie, and the always fabulous Kylie Minogue (more on her in a moment). This set also features new and reworked songs from Gen X and Millennial divas like Erin Hamilton (RIP), Miss Suzanne Palmer, Anastacia, Carly Rae Jepsen, and Antoinette Roberson. As you can see, we've packed this set to the gills with old and new favorites that are bound to fuel your workouts for months to come. We had promised to deliver several reworked Diva Hall of Fame episodes but decided to cut it down to one. There seems to be a lack of appreciation for our work, and frankly, I'm not draining my bank account for folk's listening pleasure that refuse to support our efforts. The next release will be the long-overdue update for Kylie Minogue. It will be private and available only to those who've supported us since April — no matte...

The creation of this mix was akin to pulling teeth. I've mentioned in previous episodes that the dance music scene is going through some challenges this year, and there just hasn't been a lot of standout material. I'll save all the gritty details for our end-of-year round-up. What I will say is that despite being distracted by other issues (as I mentioned in yesterday's post), I had more than enough songs to create this set. The problem was that two-thirds of the tracks just weren't hitting the mark. There's so much mediocre to outright garbage music out there at any given time, making it difficult to be satisfied with the final result. I would finish the mix, only to start eliminating and replacing songs over the course of three weeks. It wasn't until last week that a flood of really good tracks dropped, allowing me to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Then, yesterday, Pink Panda released a rework of the Martha Wash house classic "Catch the Light," transforming it into a supersonic, hyperactive powerhouse that just clicked. This track enabled me to rearrange some songs for a better overall flow of the set. Surprisingly, no one has jumped on this track yet, but they should. These powerhouse diva vocals are exactly what's missing in today's music, and there are flourishes of examples in this set. It seems that many DJs feel the same way and are starting to incorporate this style into their mixes, which excites us here at Party Favorz. Still, Summer Heat 2024 represents the absolute finest in Dance Club music at the moment, with a variety of genres represented throughout. If you missed our announcement yesterday, Party Favorz is once again fundraising to help cover our $300+ monthly costs. April's fundraiser lasted until early June, and since then, we've been covering expenses out of pocket. We really need small monthly donations, but we also welcome one-time contributions. All funds go directly into a dedicated account used specifically for our expenses. If you can help out, it would be greatly appreciated. We'll be back next week with the 2024 Summer Edition for the circuit boys. This is another area that's been lacking, but our good friend Mark from Dirty Disco just forwarded some upfront promos that aren't set for release until a later date, and they've completely blown us away. These tracks will be exclusive to Party Favorz. Until next time, ENJOY! There were two versions of this set with minor differences and the wrong one was initially uploaded. It's now been corrected. Sorry for the inconvenience.

I'm going to be honest: the entire dance music scene is in flux right now. Genre lines are blurring, creating chaos for DJs trying to curate balanced sets. While I'm adaptable, the rapid changes are working my last nerve. We've always avoided Dubstep and Drum & Bass due to their mixing challenges and overall intensity. Most listeners don't want an entire set of either genre. This left us with Tech House, Breaks, Bass House, and Techno as our primary sources for the Peak Hour series. Tech House used to be the glue that held all these sets together, but it's undergoing a similar transformation to Afro House—becoming more commercial and less dancefloor-oriented. The influx of Latin House and commercial tracks itno the genre makes finding genuine Tech House a daunting task. Some tracks now fit better in our Funky House series. The term "Melodic House and Techno" is misleading. These genres are vastly different. A prime example is "See You Sweat" by Max Styler and GENESI, a Techno-Tech House hybrid that's currently #1 on the Beatport Melodic House and Techno chart. I almost overlooked it because Melodic House doesn't typically fit our Peak Hour vibe. Breaks and Bass House have been particularly disappointing lately, offering little to work with. It's been a frustrating process. I've reworked this set three times, digging deep for the right tracks and cutting out what didn't work. While most of it is solid, the overall joy of creating these sets has diminished. I'm considering taking a break from this series and collecting tracks I love over the next several months for a future set as opposed to jumping right in and scooping up a bunch of great songs to include that just aren't there. The time commitment to curate a set while sifting through hundreds of weekly releases is unsustainable. Ultimately, I hope this set delivers. Please let me know your thoughts.

Beach House 2024 has everything for House Music lovers, including straight-up House, Disco House, Latin House, Tech House, and Afro House, all seamlessly blended into a smoothie mix perfect for pool and beach parties. From the fabulous opening piano chords on the David Penn remix of "Our Love (80s)" by Yours to the sweat-inducing "Body Next To Mine" by Alex Adair and Bottom Up, this summer Funky House set hits all the right notes. A personal favorite is "Post That (Shit)" by Deon Cole and Terry Hunter. This track exudes a vogue vibe, beckoning listeners to post their poses to social media while enjoying a very Salsoul Records feel. The Chicago callout reminds us that the city is the birthplace of House Music. Mark Lower and Alexandra Prince give us a summery cocktail spin on "Paradise," a remake of the Sade classic. Tyshawn Colquitt remakes the disco classic "Spank" with DJ Spen adding a faithful garage mix, complete with horns. Armand Van Helden updates his early Millennium classic "My My My" with the uncredited Tara McDonald on vocals, creating another personal favorite. Meanwhile, Simon Fava, Yvvan Back & Cumbiafrica bring "The Heat" with their Latin Tech House track, which is currently topping many playlists. Another standout is "Move On Up" by Curtis Mayfield, with the incomparable Mark Knight performing remix duties. I didn't realize that the "Superfly" guy originally sang this song. Destination took it to #1 on the Disco charts in 1979, and Knight gives the original Soul/Funk version the Disco treatment, using Mayfield's original vocals. It's absolutely uplifting! DJ Ritmo Latino's "Ritmo Latino" is one of several Latin House songs included here that lend a salsa vibe laid over a house beat. Yvvan Back and Afterman deliver the Tech House track "Who's That Girl," which, with its Latin House delivery, belongs here more than on any Tech House set, where it's currently riding high. Finally, two other favorites are "Ain't Got No" by KPD and David Penn. The upbeat bounce of the song contrasts with the singer's declaration that she "ain't got nobody," a weird pairing that just works. Equally, Serge Funk's "Please Don't Leave" delivers a satisfying early 70s vibe laid over a Disco House beat that, contrary to the singer's plea, makes you elated and eager to dance. Believe it or not, I knocked out Beach House 2024 in one sitting, aiming for a carefree, open vibe to accompany the music, and it just melted together like butter! Beach House 2024 is your summer soundtrack to plain ole fun.

Unlike past efforts, we've decided to mix things up by offering alternate versions of some of the biggest dance songs, instead of the versions you're all familiar with. The aim is to create a party mix of your favorite songs, rather than sounding like our end-of-year Top Dance Songs. In cases where there aren't any alternate versions, we've stuck with the original. There's very little Afro House (a term we dislike) with only a couple of exceptions. So, don't expect the Rivo remix of "You and Me" by Disclosure. Instead, we chose the original Flume remix from 2023 when the song was first released. No one's come close to topping that stellar banger. The same goes for "Murder On the Dance Floor," which opens this set. Most remixes stick to the original Nu Disco version with a modern update. David Guetta flips the song into a proper banger, setting the stage for this release right from the start. As usual, we mix in some newer songs that are heating up dance floors because we don't want to wait until our Summer Heat release. Music tends to get backed up this time of year. Adding newer songs alongside earlier releases spices things up and keeps it interesting. I'll be dropping Volume 2 of this series shortly — so be on the lookout for that. Until the next time...ENJOY!

For those who ignored what I wrote in our Gay Pride Edition 2024, the pieces are falling into place. Unless you've been living under a rock, SCOTUS has just made homelessness illegal, legalized obstructing Congress in counting electoral votes to confirm a President, sanctioned bribery for politicians and judges, and dismantled federal agencies overseeing our environment, food safety, consumer rights, and LGBTQ+ protections. In doing so, they've seized decision-making power from career federal experts, overriding the Chevron Doctrine that traditionally deferred to their expertise. After dragging their feet on whether former President Trump has total presidential immunity for absconding with Top Secret classified information back to Mar-a-Lago — something several people are currently in jail for while awaiting trial — on Monday, SCOTUS will hand down their decision. It's likely to be narrowly tailored, aimed solely at Trump, to avoid granting President Biden any special powers. This case highlights a crucial argument against presidential immunity: presidents are not kings. Granting them immunity from legal consequences undermines accountability and equality under the law, principles foundational to Constitutional Republic. This is just the beginning. If you haven't read up on Project 2025, wake up. It's already underway. All they need is for you to stay home, not vote, and let MAGA control all branches of government. That's the message. Happy fucking 4th of July.

This edition's cover art is courtesy of Mark De Lange, also known as Dirty Disco. Mark isn't just a prodigious and talented DJ who helps keep many of our Circuit and Anthems sets glued together; he's also a businessman, entrepreneur, and a genuinely nice guy. The hot daddy aspect is just an added bonus. Party Favorz wanted to celebrate this edition with real people we know, and it's an honor that Mark shared a variety of photos with us to choose for the cover. He even shared more than we asked for, but let's just say, we're impressed. If you find yourself in Houston (TX) anytime soon, head on over to the Montrose area and drop by his bar, the Houston Eagle (611 Hyde Park, Houston, TX 77006) where he spins on Sundays and say hi. Tell him Party Favorz sent you. The Importance of Voting in 2024 As we celebrate Gay Pride month, it's crucial to address some pressing issues. It's an election year, folks, and it's the single most important one in our lifetime. It was true in 2016 when we urged everyone to vote for Clinton, but many couldn't get past the email controversy despite her being the most qualified person to ever run for office. Her loss resulted in a narcissistic, six-times-bankrupt, and morally corrupt individual holding the highest seat in our nation, which allowed him to install three conservative justices on the Supreme Court, giving them a majority. Since then, they've rolled back voting rights, overturned the landmark Roe v. Wade, and expanded religious liberties to the point where doctors and pharmacists can openly discriminate against women, minorities, and the LGBTQ community without fear of punishment through state laws barring discrimination. Effectively, they've polluted our Constitution and severely restricted our 14th Amendment rights, and they're only getting started. The Threats to LGBTQ Rights Many of the hard-fought rights LGBTQ people have fought for, like marriage equality, sodomy laws, and the repeal of Don't Ask, Don't Tell, have been won by the struggles and willingness of the gay community to fight for the equal rights we're guaranteed under the Constitution. Now, all of it—ALL OF IT—is on the chopping block. After overturning Roe v. Wade, Justice Thomas, in his concurring opinion, went even further, inviting lawsuits to overturn contraception and marriage equality. Don't be fooled; this court is not comprised of strict constitutionalists but rather activist judges who are attempting to inje...

This set is packed with timeless gay anthems, including Denis Bravo's masterpiece rework of Whitney Houston's "I'll Always Love You," seamlessly blended with a snippet of the original Hex Hector remix. We've also included Ariana Grande's "Yes, And," based on the classic "Vogue" sample, alongside a modern Madonna rework by Leo Frappier (aka Division 4). Chappell Roan's breakthrough hit "Pink Pony Club" gets a dancefloor-ready rework by Stephen Jusko & DJ Blacklow, followed by Ethel Cain's "Sun Bleached Flies" and a haunting fan-made mashup of her vocals with Robyn's "Dancing On My Own" instrumental. Of course, no set would be complete without the original Robyn version of "Dancing On My Own," remixed by Luca Debonaire, Tony Ruiz, and Matt Consola. Adam Lambert and Sigala pay tribute to Sylvester with their rendition of "You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)," while Lily Allen's "Fuck You" gets a rousing Dubstep remix. These two volumes of "Gay Anthems For A New Generation 2024" are truly the best yet, celebrating the LGBTQ+ community's progress over the past 20 years. In other news, we're still falling short of our monthly goals to keep the lights on. If you haven't already, please consider pitching in $5 a month to cover our operating expenses. Party Favorz won't be around forever, but we'd love to finish the year strong. We'll be back next week with a massive two-volume Pride Edition for our circuit boys. Until then...ENJOY!

Launched in 2016, this series revitalizes beloved gay anthems from decades past with modern reworks for today's LGBTQ+ Millennials and Gen Z.

We've also regrooved tracks from current queer artists like Billie Eilish, Sam Smith, Chappell Roan, Ethel Caine, Troye Sivan, and Years and Years for the dance floor. This set is your one-stop shop for celebrating Gay Pride across all the hottest House Music genres. Volume 2 drops tomorrow, with another two-volume set for our circuit boys next week.

We kick off this sizzling set with the undeniable "Go Back" by John Summit and Sub Focus. This track has already set dancefloors ablaze, and its unique blend of Summit's signature house vibes with Sub Focus's explosive drum & bass switch-up guarantees it a lasting place in your summer playlist. While we love incorporating drum & bass into our mixes, it's a tricky genre to blend seamlessly due to its distinctive time signature. Trust us, a strictly D&B set can clear a dancefloor faster than the DJ can "read the room." After extensive experimentation, we found the perfect transition in Anyma and Chris Avantgarde's massive "Consciousness" from two years back. This track effortlessly bridges the gap between "Go Back" and Armin van Buuren's latest hit, "By Now," even though they aren't in compatible keys – sometimes, it just works! From there, we dive into the infectious energy of TELYKAST's "Free" and Avalan Rokston's "Paradise," two underrated gems that are destined to become summer anthems. We've also included two spring releases that initially flew under our radar, despite their immense popularity. Cloonee's "Sippin' Yak" received a must-have official remix by Morgan Seatree, and Mr. Belt and Wezol's garage-infused rework of Whitney Houston's "It's Not Right But It's Okay" finally caught our attention. While the original Thunderpuss remix remains iconic, Renyn and Schelander's energetic version sealed the deal for us. Jennifer Lopez, riding high on the success of her Netflix movie "Atlas" (highly recommended), also makes an appearance with Fisher's masterful house remix of her 1999 classic, "Waiting For Tonight." We've meticulously curated this set to deliver a Club Fusion experience – a mix of genres that keeps the party vibe fresh and exciting. We'll be taking a short break, but when we return, get ready for our June Pride celebrations! We'll be dropping "Gay Anthems for a New Generation" and "Pride Edition 2024" in the same week. Additionally, look out for our annual "Catch-Up" series, featuring the year's biggest hits so far, and the next installment of our beloved "Throwback" series. Until the next time...ENJOY! * No frogs were harmed in the making of the cover art. ^This episode was updated by tightening the transitions for the first quarter of the mix. It's slightly shorter than the previous version. Album: Summer Leap 2024Genre: House, Progressive House, Trance, Techno,

In fact, our latest edition of Chill Out Sessions takes a nostalgic step back to our Mixtape Sessions. These sets were laidback affairs but leaned towards a more commercial realm of music from that era. With the recent explosion of the Afro House genre, many of these tracks find a better-suited home in this series. DJs seem to have only recently discovered percussion as if it were something new, yet it has been a staple in dance remixes since the 90s, lending these songs a warmer vibe. Back then we called it Progressive House, which will undoubtedly resurface as the genre du jour of the moment any time now /s While some of these tracks indeed fall into the Afro House category, most do not. However, this doesn't diminish their quality, beauty or resilience. On the contrary, they are exceptional, and we're all about top-notch dance music here at Party Favorz. Nevertheless, many of these tunes are so laid-back that they might not fit the dance floor vibe but rather serve as background music while you unwind during your drive home from work or need some zen time. While we'll use some of these songs in our Club Fusion series (because we stay on trend around here), many wouldn't make the cut but deserve to be aired. I won't spoil the surprise by going into detail about each track today. Instead, I invite you to let the music be a delightful discovery for your discerning ears. Even if our previous Chill Out offerings weren't your cup of tea, I encourage you to give this one a chance. I believe you'll be pleasantly surprised. Until next time... ENJOY!

This episode packs a serious punch, overflowing with modern-day House bangers alongside classic Disco House that sets the mood perfectly. Funky Classics with a Modern Twist We kick things off with a fresh take on a 90s House favorite: Jamiroquai's "Space Cowboy" gets a vibrant update by Michael Gray in his "Good Vibe" remix. It keeps the original spirit alive while feeling fresh for the 21st century. Next up, Mark Lower and Alexandra Prince reimagine Sade's soothing "Paradise" with a Nu Disco beat and Prince's smooth vocals, creating a perfect summer invitation. Dance Floor Dominators Get ready to move! The set explodes with modern House anthems guaranteed to light up any dance floor. We're especially loving LF System's uplifting "Lift You Up," a positive anthem that reminds us to focus on the good, even amidst challenges. OFFIAH's "Hands" carries the same sentiment, with a roof-raising energy that beckons everyone to join the party. A Touch of Sexy Of course, Funky House Heat wouldn't be complete without some seductive vibes. The Shapeshifters deliver with "Body Music," featuring a familiar sample from the timeless House classic "Body To Body (Keep In Touch)" by Shades of Love. It's a guaranteed crowd-pleaser. Peak Hour Dance Floor Sweat Ready to lose yourself in the heat? This episode features several peak-hour heavy-hitters. DJ Minx's "Don't Do It To Me," Earth n Days' and "The Kinda Love" (CASSIMM remix) are floor-scorchers. "NRG" by Many Few, which holds true to its namesake featuring what sounds like a sample of Loleatta Holloway but don't hold us to that — is pure FIRE! Disco Heat Funky House Heat doesn't forget its Disco roots. Dr Packer and Purple Disco Machine, two legendary names, bring the heat, while Sofi Tukker's "One On One" (a personal favorite) gets a remix treatment from the 70s Disco master, Cerrone. Throwbacks with a Message We love a good throwback, and this episode features two gems. Kyle Watson's modern take on the Funk classic "Low Rider" by War is a surprising hit, paying homage to Chicano culture while keeping dance floors moving. Brothas & Sistas' "Without Love" is a Funky House reimagining of the Doobie Brothers' "Long Train Running," transformed into a powerful call for unity in these divided times. Finally May will be packed with exciting releases at Party Favorz, so stay tuned across all our channels! One quick note to let y'all know that Party Favorz has monthly obligations to keep our podcast up and running and so far,

This set is bursting with the hottest dance club tracks guaranteed to keep you moving all night long. We scour the internet to find the bangers that are taking clubs and festivals by storm, so you don't have to. Fresh Takes on Classics We kick things off with a modern twist on the early-millennium Progressive House classic "Touch Me" by Rui Da Silva and Cassandra, which the original was just featured on our BackSpin 2024 Volume 1 set. Switch Disco blends this iconic track with Drake's "Massive" for a mashup that's sure to get the crowd jumping. This trend of refreshing old favorites is strong, but trust us, nothing beats Cassandra's original vocals that add a touch of sultry urgency. Another standout mashup comes from DJs From Mars, who combine Ariana Grande's "We Can't Be Friends" with the Temper Trap classic "Sweet Disposition" This fusion perfectly complements the original Axwell remix, transforming it into a powerful big room anthem without losing its emotional core. New Releases with Anthem Potential Up next is Becky Hill's emotional powerhouse ballad "Outside Love" from her upcoming album "Never Be Alone" (dropping May 31st). The song delivers a deep and relatable message about heartbreak, further amplified by Hill's soulful vocals. While there are remixes available, Party Favorz recommends the extended original for its ability to evoke a powerful connection with the audience. We also have a killer rave remix in store for our next release – this song is that good! Rising Stars and Summer Smash Hits Ella Henderson and Rudimental join forces for "Alibi," a track that samples the iconic 90s hit "Gangsta Paradise" by Coolio. Joel Corry takes the remix helm, transforming the song into a hard-hitting 145 BPM dance floor anthem. Newcomer Artemas also makes a splash with the catchy "I Like the Way You Kiss Me." Despite some online rumors (we won't get into the details!), the song itself is undeniably catchy, especially with Oliver Helden's electrifying rave remix. This one's bound to be a summer smash. Keeping the party vibes flowing, we have a refreshed version of the 2002 classic "All the Things She Said" by t.A.T.u. Robin Schulz, Timmy Trumpet & KOPPY take this beloved song and turn it into a proper rave banger, seamlessly blending in with the previous tracks. Hidden Gems and Unexpected Remixes Don't miss the Martin Horger remix of Purple Disco Machine & ÁSDÍS's "Beat of My Heart." This remix injects a pulsating synth line, drawing inspiration from the Lil Louis House classic "French Kiss.

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.

We've thrown in some Breaks and Trance too, keeping things lively. Our new mix "Vibrate" was knocked out in one sitting. We kept it tight so you won’t get bored; the tracks flow smoothly but with surprises to keep the energy high. In other news, we've moved back to our old hosting spot, aiming to settle down. The cost of running our show has been crazy, with some service bills hitting the roof. Not all these services are worth their price, so we're cutting down where we can, but it's still a pricey affair. We hit a snag with our recent move, causing a 24-hour downtime and some missing files. I'm on it, fixing things even on a Sunday. If you're following specific categories on different platforms, hang tight; it might take a month to get everything sorted before they reappear. We're also shaking things up with our donation system, switching to a new provider. More details are coming soon. For now, the donation page is ready (albeit a little sluggish), and if you can chip in, it would really help us cover our costs. I want to apologize for dropping another set on a Sunday (Monday in some parts of the world). I’ve been juggling personal stuff with updating the website while trying to crank out new episodes, which has thrown off our schedule. We’re doing our best to get back on track and make it up to you in the next few months. Hope you all had a great weekend. Get ready for our annual Spring Edition for 2024, specially for our circuit boy fans. Depending on the final tracklist, that set could evolve into two volumes and it appears there will be a second volume of Spring Break 2024.

Our latest Club Fusion entry spans a wide range of music, catching up on what we missed in January and February and previewing what's to come on dance floors in the next few weeks. There's plenty to talk about so let's dive in! John Summit returns with "Shiver," the follow-up to his massive 2023 hit "Where Are You Now," featuring another outstanding vocal performance by Hayla. While this track is a solid floor-filler, it may lean a bit too closely to the magic of its predecessor. However, that won't deter anyone from enjoying its deep atmosphere and haunting vocals. Summit also offers an exceptional update to Temper Trap's "Sweet Disposition," a song that never tires in its various versions. In fact, "Sweet Disposition" is on track to rival Underworld's "Born Slippy" as a DJ favorite for revitalization. Summit's take maintains the original's integrity while adding his unique flair to the track. Both releases are essential for any DJ set. Among the tracks we're excited about is Becky Hill's latest single, "Never Be Alone," from her forthcoming album. The D.O.D remix cleverly incorporates the bass synth riff from Armand Van Helden's 90s remix of "Spin Spin Sugar" by Sneaker Pimps, elevating an already stellar track on the dance floor. Ariana Grande and Dua Lipa also contribute new offerings. Ariana's "Yes, and?" has been stuck in our heads like glue, echoing Madonna's iconic "Vogue" and inspiring numerous mashups. Felix Jahen's version stays true to the original while giving it a contemporary lift. We eagerly anticipate Grande's next album. Dua Lipa's third album seems to explore similar themes as her groundbreaking "Future Nostalgia." Personally, I would have chosen "Training Season" over "Houdini" as the lead single (excluding "Dance the Night Away" from the "Barbie" soundtrack). The songs don't fall flat, but they lack the captivating edge of her previous work. Nevertheless, the remixes manage to elevate them for the dance floor, keeping Lipa relevant in the house music scene. It's time to spotlight emerging DJs you should be following, starting with AVALAN ROKSTON. Currently in Beatport's Top 10 with their remake of Moby's "Why Does My Heart Feel So Bad?" they've also released "Faith," a song teased on TikTok for over a month that truly lives up to the hype. The emotional depth of "Faith" is undeniable, especially when the euphoria hits. Their remix of London Grammar's "Strong" from 2023, though new to us, is so impressive it deserves recognition among the top dance songs of last year and has been included here despite ...

"YoYo Dissco" features all the latest Funky House, Disco House, and House Music songs that have been buzzing in our ears for the past couple of months. If you're a fan of this series (and it seems a lot of you are, judging by the numbers over the past year), everything will sound familiar with a fresh sense of newness throughout the mix. This set kicks off with some Gospel Disco by the always fabulous Barbara Tucker, who we haven't heard from in a while and delivers a hopeful track for these trying times. From there, you'll journey through the dance floor with an endless array of roof-raisers, funky throwbacks, and mashups of perennial favorites, creating entirely new songs. Navigating Through Time: A Reflection on Party Favorz's Journey and Musical Milestones Party Favorz is now in its 17th year, and it's remarkable to think we've been around for four presidencies, witnessing massive changes in technology and entertainment consumption. We were leading the charge in this arena before podcasts became ubiquitous, and while many have fallen by the wayside, we're still here delivering the dancefloor directly to you. Towards the end of this mix, you'll notice a song called "The Cure & The Cause" by Fish Go Deep and Tracey K. Idris Elba took the song in a very 90s straight House Music direction. At the time of its original release, it was all about the DJ Meme remix, which added live strings in the vein of the Solsoul Records era. It was a massive hit back in 2007, the same year Party Favorz was born on the internet. It's interesting to note that it was also released during a presidential year, similar to the current time. While nothing will ever top the DJ Meme remix, this new rendition brought back a lot of fond memories from our early days. You can find the DJ Meme remix on our Funky House Edition 2007 v6 and on Volume 1 of our DJ Meme tribute mix. Technical Updates and Enhancements: Improving Your Listening Experience I've been struggling to get the categories to work on the streaming feeds for several days, but then it came to me in a dream last night. That's been the delay in getting the new design out, and I haven't fully tested it yet, but hopefully, it will work out. If not, I'm waiting on a quote from a developer to assist, along with fixing the link in the site's header. No need to inform me; I'm aware of it and will get it fixed as soon as possible. Feel free to reach out if you find any other errors, such as wrong artwork,

Yet, towering above them all is the unparalleled Taylor Swift. This year, she embarked on her monumental "Eras Tour," spanning an ambitious 151 dates across five continents. The tour, already etching records as the highest-grossing by a woman and second overall, is a testament to Swift's colossal impact and unwavering appeal. But wait, there's more. Swift didn't just stop at live performances. Her concert film broke records, dominating theaters worldwide and showcasing her transition from a country music prodigy to a pop culture icon. This strategic re-recording of her first six albums, originally recorded at a smaller label, wasn't just a gamble—it was a power move to regain control of the royalties for her music after it was sold to a private equity firm from underneath her. Each album's rerelease shot to #1 on the Billboard Hot 200, sidelining fresh releases from other artists. In her "Eras Tour," Swift ingeniously packaged 44 songs from her discography into a 3.5-hour extravaganza. This visual and auditory spectacle, divided into 10 acts, each representing an album era, garnered critical acclaim and fan adoration, solidifying her status as a true music industry maverick. Here at Party Favorz, we celebrate such groundbreaking artists, especially when their journey intersects with dance music. With the flurry of new remixes emerging from "Taylor's Version" albums, we found it imperative to revisit our original tribute and elevate it with a fresh, deluxe edition. Reworking the original volumes was no simple task. We dove back into the essence of Taylor's music, remixing both volumes from scratch while respecting the template of the original releases. New versions and new songs now infuse these collections, ensuring a unique and exhilarating experience for Swift's fans. A special shoutout to Dirty Disco is in order for their invaluable contribution to the first volume of this deluxe edition. Their remixes, particularly the "Blank Space" exclusive, are a nod to Taylor's diverse fanbase, particularly the LGBTQ+ community, who find a special connection with her music. Celebrating Taylor Swift in our Diva Hall of Fame with 'Club Taylor Volume 1' is more than an honor—it's a recognition of her immense contribution to dance music. With over 200 million records sold, Taylor Swift isn't just a figure in a male-dominated industry; she's a trailblazer who has touched t...

This series began in late 2013 when I found myself with some extra time and the desire to create one last epic party throwdown to welcome the new year. Since then, BYOH has become a staple in our collection, a series that our fans rely on us to deliver year after year. Honestly, I've been going non-stop since late October, creating one set after another to keep everyone entertained and, perhaps, a bit distracted from everyday life. I wasn't sure I had another mix in me, but I sat down yesterday and, to my surprise, produced this final set in record time. It's accompanied by a quickly assembled cover art that, while not my finest work, certainly serves its purpose. This set is as raw as they come, which, in my opinion, is part of its charm. It’s a high-octane ride with few breaks, boasting a garage feel that epitomizes this style of mix – imperfections and all. I haven’t previewed it myself, so you’re getting the first listen. Most tracks in this set are alternate versions of popular songs from the year, many of which haven't appeared in any of our other sets. There are also some familiar originals that seamlessly fit the fast pace, along with a few notable late-year releases. Highlights include "I'm So Excited" by Sound Of Legend, a fresh take on the early '80s Pointer Sisters hit, "Hey DJ" by Joel Corry, reminiscent of early millennium tracks like Ian Van Dahl's "Castles In the Sky", a new version of Eddie Murphy's late '80s hit "Party All the Time," redone by Hannah Laing & HVRR, and "Make Me Happy" by Patrick Topping, a welcome return from an artist we haven't heard from in a while. I won’t be making any tweaks to this final set, so feel free to dive in and download it. I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who has supported Party Favorz, especially after our slow start this year. I won't stoop to the level of a certain individual who disrupted our operations out of jealousy and unprofessionalism by naming names but there's a special place in hell for this asshole. Your support has been invaluable, particularly as our operating costs have tripled. You mean everything to us and we couldn't have done it without your continued support. Here’s wishing everyone a happy and healthy New Year. Stay positive, and 2024 will be your year. I’ll be taking off most of January not to rest, but to revamp our website with something fresh and exciting. Our current theme is showing its age whose team seemingly took over its development without much support,

A prominent trend in today’s music consumption is streaming, a phenomenon that gained even more importance during the pandemic, impacting the dance music industry significantly. While festivals still thrive with their EDM-centric, visually spectacular shows, club venues have suffered, leading to the closure of the Billboard Dance Club chart due to reduced DJ feedback from large venues. Even in major cities, where nightlife is concentrated, this shift has resulted in a decrease in the volume of new dance music releases. At Party Favorz, we've felt this reduction since last year. With less music comes fewer standout hits, and many of today’s hits often sample popular tracks from 10 to 20 years ago, repurposing these melodies into new creations. However, the silver lining in fewer releases is that it allows gems like "Water" by Tyla, "Body Moving" by Eliza Rose and Calvin Harris, and Peggy Gou’s hit "(It Goes Like) Nanana" to shine, reaching a broader audience. In a different era, these tracks might have been overshadowed by a flood of new music. Exploring other dance music genres, artists have reinvigorated styles like Drum 'n' Bass. While not our personal favorite, especially in a full DJ set, it has its place. Becky Hill's "Disconnect" is so Punk Rock that the D'n'B production by Chase & Status was a natural fit for the song. Issey Cross’s "Bittersweet Goodbye" is another significant Drum 'n' Bass track, infusing the genre's energy with orchestral elements borrowed from the Verge alternative classic "Bittersweet Symphony," which got them in hot water for borrowing the string section from the Rolling Stones "The Last Time." Despite its potential, this genre can be challenging for DJs without advanced equipment to blend with contemporary dance music. Still, Drum 'n' Bass is seeing a small rebirth when we were hoping for a Breaks resurgence in mainstream dance which has shown a lot of promise lately. We'll have to wait and see what 2024 brings. Latin House has also seen a rise in popularity. Jain’s "Makeba" classic emerged as a major hit this year with the Ian Aisher remix and reminiscent of the "Macarena" with its catchy refrain. We selected Axel Paerel’s version for this set, focusing on the instrumental part that really gets people moving. This approach is similar to the initial instrumental version of "Macarena," which later had lyrics added for broader appeal. Other Latin-influenced hits include "Marianela" by Merk & Kremont x Hugel vs. Lirico En La Casa and "Let's Go" by will.i.am and J Balvin.

This ambitious endeavor involved a deep dive into our 2023 Club Fusion and Peak Hour releases to compile the most impactful dance anthems that left their mark on the dance floor and resonated as unforgettable earworms. Our selection process focused on streaming numbers from platforms like YouTube and Spotify, complemented by our own personal bias. We've bypassed conventional charts like Billboard, seeking out the true gems that define the year's dance music zeitgeist, far from the repetitive playlists of mainstream charts. Celebrating Variety: The Standout Dance Anthems of 2023 The landscape of 2023's dance music was marked by an exhilarating variety. While many tracks echo the timeless allure of House Music, this year's biggest dance hits have ingeniously woven elements from classic dance anthems into fresh, vibrant creations. This blend of homage and innovation has injected a rich diversity into today's dance music scene, moving beyond monolithic trends. 2023's Dance Music Evolution: From House Roots to 'Jump House' Innovation One standout trend we've christened at Party Favorz is "Jump House," a thrilling evolution in dance music tempo, breaking the 130 BPM ceiling and soaring towards 145 BPM (and sometimes higher). Volume 1 of our Top Dance Songs of 2023 features these high-energy tracks, including hits like cassö, Raye & D-Block Europe's massive "Prada" (142 BPM), a Techno reworking of the Rihanna classic "Disturbia" (141 BPM), Calvin Harris & Ellie Goulding's "Miracle" (143 BPM), "Desire" by Calvin Harris & Sam Smith (140 BPM), "When We Were Young (The Logical Song)" by David Guetta & Kim Petras (140 BPM), and many others. These tracks blend pulsating beats with a nod to early millennium Trance, Techno, and House reminiscent of the Hard Dance era of the 2000s. Yet, this surge in BPM doesn't overshadow the enduring appeal of Future House and classic House Music. Tracks like John Summit & Hayla's "Where You Are" and Peggy Gou's "(It Goes Like) Nanana" have dominated the scene, proving that the heart of dance music still beats strong in its foundational genres. At Party Favorz, we've long championed diversity in dance music, advocating against a homogenized sound. Thankfully, 2023 has been a year of rich musical diversity, breaking away from the generic soundscapes that often dominate mainstream platforms. Exploring New Horizons: SoundCloud's Rise in the Dance Music Scene We're going to go out on the limb here and say that SoundCloud really is your best friend (even more than Spot...

It's that time of the year when the beats get bolder and the nights longer, perfect for some serious dance floor action. This year's mix is a rollercoaster of emotions and energy, starting with a mind-blowing mashup of Donna Summer's "I Feel Love" and Beyoncé's "Summer Renaissance." It's a track that's more than just a song – it's a celebration, a nod to the legends who've shaped our world. Diva classics are getting a fresh circuit anthem makeover too. We're talking about Kim English's "Unspeakable Joy" and Tove Lo's "Habits," reimagined in a way that only true circuit anthems can. And Kelly Clarkson's "Since U Been Gone" is hitting the circuit anthem scene with a new energy that's both nostalgic and exhilarating. But wait, there's more – we're talking about diva collaborations that are nothing short of legendary. Dolly Parton and Miley Cyrus on "Wrecking Ball"? Yes, please! And Dolly Party and Beth Sacks giving us their unique spin on the mashup of 4 Non Blondes classic "What's Up" – it's like rediscovering these songs for the first time. Cher, the queen herself, is gracing our holiday circuit anthems lineup with not one, but two tracks. Her "Angels In the Snow" and "DJ Play a Christmas Song" are getting the circuit anthem treatment by Dirty Disco and Guy Scheiman, and they're bound to be the highlight of your holiday season. And for the grand finale, we've got a circuit anthem remix of Mariah Carey's "All I Want For Christmas" that's so good, it'll make leaving the dance floor the hardest goodbye. The AI Factor in Music We can't ignore the significant role AI is playing in the music scene today. It's reached a point where AI-generated voices are singing tracks they might never have touched, including those by artists no longer with us. A prime example in our latest set is the AI rendition of Dua Lipa performing the Wham! and George Michael classic, "Careless Whisper," remixed by Henriq Moraes. The remix is impressive, but it's clear that AI still has a way to go in perfectly capturing an artist's unique vocal style. This phenomenon is widespread online, with music labels actively removing many of these AI-generated tracks from YouTube. The issue? Rights holders aren't seeing the revenue from these streams. This emerging trend is something artists and their representatives will need to address in future contracts. The situation brings to mind certain "Black Mirror" episodes – specifically "Rachel, Jack and Ashley Too" and "Joan Is Awful." In these stories,

This collection features the hottest dance club songs of the 2023 holiday season, and they are fire! Eclectic Beats: From Disco House to Tech House The set kicks off with Dom Dolla's "Saving Up," a feel-good Disco House track that radiates warmth and positivity. This song isn't just good; it's a contender for the year's best feel-good anthem. The soulful "Water" by Tyla has been making some waves after teaming up with Marshmello for a rework bringing it into the electronic dance music spectrum. However, Sak Noel picked it up and reworked it into a big House floor anthem making it a tune to revel in on the dance floor. Legendary Vibes: Cher and Classic Remixes In an unusual but welcome twist, Cher's "DJ Play a Christmas Song" makes it into the mix. This holiday tune has taken the top spot on Billboard's Dance/Electronic chart, giving her a #1 song on a Billboard chart for the past 7 decades — a testament to Cher's unwavering appeal. Robin Schulz punches up the song for modern dance floors giving that extra heft to ensure crossover success. Dimitri Vegas, Like Mike, Tiesto, and W&W have reinvented Dido's "Thank You" into a festival-ready big room remix. It's a rendition that's both nostalgic and fresh, capturing attention on multipile Spotify top ten lists. Fresh Takes on Familiar Tunes The one official remix that was left off last week's Club Taylor Volume Two was the LP Giobbi take on "Cruel Summer." It didn't quite fit the overall context of that set but is so good setting off a Melodic House vibe — we made room for it here. You may have remembered our inclusion of the Tears For Fears 80's feelgood classic "Everybody Wants To Rule the World" remixed by Niiko & Swae on our "Summer Farewell" dance party mix. Well, Tiesto came across it on Soundcloud and immediately picked it up and remixed it where it's currently riding high on Beatport's Top 10 Dance charts. It's possibly one of our favorite songs from the 80's and the extra energy Tiesto adds is just the fuel it needs to reach a whole new audience. New Collaborations and Remixes Sofi Tukker, teaming up with The Knocks on "One On One," delivers funk and seduction through Sophie Hawley-Weld's captivating vocals. It's a track that combines fun with a touch of exotic flair when she sings portions of it in Portuguese. Y'all may have remembered our suggestion that Becky Hill's massive "Disconnect" should be remixed in a more DJ-friendly Breakbeat style awhile back. Well, we got it in the Franky Wah remix and it doesn't disappoint. The remix keeps all of the elements of the original Dubstep version but provides a more club feel ...

Dominating headlines across the pop culture landscape, her influence has even reached mainstream media stalwarts like the Washington Post. From re-recording her first six albums to the record-breking North American Eras tour, now on its multi-continent leg, Taylor's every move is a story of positivity and influence. Her relationship with Kansas City Chief's tight end Travis Kelce and her push for over 100,000 of her followers to register to vote are just a few examples of her profound impact and how she's been able to stay in the headlines while maintaining a positive image without controversy. At Party Favorz, we have seen Taylor Swift overcome various challenges, including copyright infringement claims and standing up for artist royalty payments against giants like Spotify and Apple Music. Her courage was also evident in her legal battle against a Colorado radio host, demonstrating her unwavering strength and commitment to justice. Now, as her Eras Tour is set to continue through the end of 2024, one can only wonder about Taylor's next steps. At 33, her potential avenues are limitless, from songwriting for others to philanthropy. Here at Party Favorz, we hold nothing but deep admiration for Taylor Swift. We appreciate her talent and artistry, which she possesses like no other. In this second volume of Club Taylor, we've expanded upon the original release with several new songs and alternate takes. This set is tailored for those who relish modern interpretations of her music, spanning genres like Future House, Dubstep, and more. We've made sure to reflect this diversity in the second volume, and we hope our efforts in recreating these sets are appreciated by all. As Party Favorz now highlights the prodigious talent of Taylor Swift in Club Taylor Volume 2, we celebrate her as the defining voice of her generation. Her journey, starting at 14 in Nashville, to a superstar with record sales surpassing 200 million worldwide, is nothing short of extraordinary. Taylor's ability to adapt to the evolving music landscape is remarkable. Her consistent top ranking on the Billboard charts, despite their complexities, is a testament to her talent and influence. Her resonance within the LGBTQ+ community, particularly among gay men, is a reflection of our affinity towards strong, empowered women. In our Diva Hall of Fame, Taylor Swift stands alongside other legendary figures like Beyoncé, Rihanna, Selena Gomez, and Madonna. These women are not just icons; they are trailblazers who have left an indelible mark on the dance floor, a core part of our existence as gay men.

This year, we've meticulously selected and revamped classic tunes, infusing them with a fresh, danceable energy. A Festive Fusion of Classics and Contemporary Beats We've included timeless holiday favorites, ensuring this collection resonates with all our listeners. Mariah Carey's iconic "All I Want For Christmas," remixed by Low Sunday, headlines our lineup, followed closely by Kylie Minogue's "Every Day's Like Christmas," given a Stock, Aitken & Waterman twist. Donna Summer's 2009 special remix "Rosie Christmas" for Abercrombie & Fitch, and the powerful Cahill remix of Leona Lewis' "One More Sleep" add to the festive flair. The set continues with Bananarama's "Baby It's Christmas" in an Almighty remix, the CLX remix of the charity classic "Do They Know It's Christmas" by Band Aid, and Kelly Clarkson's "Underneath the Tree" in a vibrant Morlando remix. We culminate with the Illicit remix of Kristine W's "Oh Holy Night," bridging Christmas past and present. New Additions and Exclusive Remixes This year also welcomes newcomers to our Christmas dance series. Ariana Grande's "Santa Tell Me," in a unique mashup with Adam Turner, and the Choppe Davila remix of Ed Sheeran and Elton John's "Merry Christmas" showcase the evolving landscape of Christmas music. We also feature "Santa Clause Is Coming To Town" in a Dirty Disco and Traig remix, and the song that inspired this year's set, Cher's timeless "DJ Play A Christmas Song" in a 7th Heaven remix. A Balanced Musical Journey Our goal was to maintain a cohesive, engaging set, balancing classic Christmas lounge songs to provide a soothing interlude between the energetic first and second halves. This approach ensures a dynamic, yet harmonious musical experience for our listeners. Exciting Upcoming Releases Looking ahead, Party Favorz is excited to announce a special double-expanded Diva Series set next week you won't want to miss, leading into our annual Jingle Electric, Holiday Edition, and our year-end compilation of the Top Dance Songs of the Year.

This episode carefully avoids the superficial, instead offering a deep, authentic dive into the soul of chill music. Kicking off with Crew Deep's "A Whole New Level" (T.Markakis Remix), the session immediately establishes a mood of relaxed sophistication. The track's deep bass lines and subtle, energetic beats set a tone that's both calming and invigorating. It's a perfect example of how Deep House can be both soothing and stimulating. Following this, "Free" by Because Of Art, Jody Wisternoff & James Grant, takes the listener on a melodic journey. Its blend of smooth rhythms and airy synths creates an atmosphere that's both dreamy and grounded, a hallmark of our Chill Out sessions. Wassu's "The Way Back" continues this narrative. It's a track that feels like a reflective stroll, with its gentle progression and organic textures. The beauty of Organic House is in its ability to weave natural sounds into an electronic tapestry, and this track does it brilliantly. "Reverie" by PROFF further adds to the depth of "Serendipia." The song's intricate harmonies and subtle build-ups encapsulate the essence of Melodic House. It's a piece that speaks directly to the emotions, weaving a story without words. As "Serendipia" progresses, each track, from M.O.S. & Krasa Rosa's "We Are Kids" to Tony Lionni's introspective "Talking To Myself," enriches the session's narrative. These aren't just tracks; they're chapters in a story of relaxation and introspection. In "Serendipia," we strive to go beyond the usual. Each selection isn't just a part of the Chill Out session; it's an integral piece of a larger musical tapestry, one that invites listeners to unwind and explore the depths of chill music. With "Serendipia," we're not just listening to music; we're experiencing a journey through sound, emotion, and tranquility.

"Don't Walk, Dance!" is one of those sets that's created in one sitting which packs an extraordinary punch and delivers pure magic right to your ears. We start with a bang, featuring the iconic 90s House music sensation, Adeva. Collaborating with Soul Seekerz, bringing us "Musical Freedom", a track that echoes persistence and hope, while doing the Candi Staton original proud. It's a powerful opener that sets the tone for what's to come. A Funky House Journey Through Musical Masterpieces Transitioning smoothly, we dive into "Your Heaven" by Mother of Pearl featuring Pearl Mae, a track that epitomizes the uplifting spirit of Funky House. This is quickly followed by Mike Newman's "Things I Do", which intriguingly blends a Robin S-like sound with lyrics from the Commodores' 1977 hit "Easy", creating an uplifting vibe. In a seamless transition, we experience Word of Mouth UK's creative mashup of Aretha Franklin's "A Deeper Love (Pride)" with Paul Johnson's "Get Get Down". This fusion not only honors the classics but also reinvigorates them for today's dance floors. Iconic Samples and Versatility in Funky House Illyus and Barrientos, known for their versatility, team up with Phebe Edwards on "Wait", a track that's pure gold. Mark Knight, another master at his craft, takes us into the realm of big room House with "The Greatest Thing Alive", a collaboration with Green Velvet and James Hurr. This deep House track is sure to have dance floors moving in unison. No Party Favorz mix is complete without a nod to the legendary Loleatta Holloway. DJ Oji's "The Good Ol Dayz" brilliantly incorporates Holloway's "Love Sensation", showcasing her unforgettable voice in a new light. A Disco-Infused Funky House Extravaganza The set also features an array of Disco House tracks. We revisit classics like "Saturday Night" by Duwayne Motley, "Move On Up" by Block & Crown, and a fresh take on Chic's "Want Your Love" by Gary Tuohy, which keeps Nile Rogers' iconic guitar work intact. Our journey concludes with Jason Walker, a talent whose voice and style remind us of Simply Red's Mick Hucknall. His track "Joy", produced by Georgie Porgie, is the perfect finale to our three-hour musical odyssey.

A Seductive Start: The Remix that Reels You In The journey begins with the pulsating Vintage Culture remix of "Spring Girl" by Adam Ten and Maori which brightens the core of Tech House while weaving in a seductive mystery with its fast-talking, indecipherable lyrics.

This fresh take on an already beloved track will rekindle your love for the beat, taking your connection to soaring new levels. Unexpected Twists: Breaks That Sweep You Away Dusky x Denham Audio's "Everything I Do" is a masterful stroke of breaks and euphoria. The track’s syncopated beats, overlaid with swirling synths, are a tribute to the underestimated power of Breaks—serving a more thrilling ride than even the current Dubstep trend. Refreshing Classics: Tech House with a New Heartbeat Deadau5 & The Neptunes' "Pomegranate," turned Tech House anthem by Jay Robinson, receives a Party Favorz touch—accelerating it to a heart-racing tempo that reignites the track's initial allure.

Other gems include Johnny Gamble's update on Nelly's "Hot In Herre" and a refreshed version of No Doubt's "Hella Good" by Niko the Kid & Benson with a multitude more too numerous to mention. Fresh Dance Club Anthems and Genre Trends Marlon Hoffstadt & DJ Daddy Trance are shaking things up with "It's That Time," a Jump House track that's irresistible. Jazzy follows suit with another chart-topper in the same genre, "Feel It." Kry (IT) and Per QX aren't far behind, delivering the sizzling house track "Get That Groove On."

Party Favorz is turning up the volume with our annual Fall Edition for 2023, featuring HOT cowboys and, you guessed it, the most electrifying circuit anthems around. If you're ready to sweat, you're in the right place. The Bryan Adams Revival: A Circuit Anthem Feast Our journey begins with a new spin on Bryan Adams' iconic 80s anthem "Heaven," reimagined by Edson Pride and Annie Fox. This revamped version doesn't stray far from the classic but revs it up into a tribal house extravaganza. Sydney’s Oscar Jamo Revamps "Bulletproof" Next in line, Oscar Jamo from Sydney infuses La Roux's electro-pop sensation "Bulletproof" with a twist of Progressive House, eventually catapulting it into big room. This little creative detour lands the remix a well-deserved spot in our mix of circuit anthems. The Dirty Disco Mixes We Can't Resist As is tradition, we're injecting a dose of Tea Dance with the magic of Dirty Disco into the experience. This installment features new songs by Troy Sivan, Selena Gomez, Kylie, and even Sam Smith doing a duet with Christina Aguilera on her classic ballad "Beautiful." Oh, and let’s not forget LP’s “Golden”—an absolute gem. Smooth Moves with Kristine W and Dario Xavier Taking us down another groove, Kristine W takes on Sade's timeless track "Smooth Operator," and Dario Xavier lifts it sky-high with his unique Tribal House flair making this a worthy circuit anthem. Guy Scheiman: Israel's Hottest Circuit Anthems DJ Our playlist wouldn't be complete without the multi-talented Guy Scheiman, hailing from Israel. He adds his magic touch to David Bowie's "Let's Dance" and revisits the Steve Mac vs. Mosquito's early 2000s dance hit "Lovin' You More." To cap it off, he's got a brand-new track from Broadway star and LGBTQ+ ally Idina Menzel—“Move,” which is fresh off her latest dance album "Drama Queen." Nick "Harvey’s Double Feature Let's not overlook Nick Harvey, who rocks the floor with an original called "7 Days" and he brings the fun party joy of Dua Lipa’s “Dance the Night (Away).” His dub mix of Kylie's latest, "Tension," is a pulsating dub masterpiece that simply can't be ignored. Award-Worthy Circuit Anthems Remixes Jace M & Toy Armada make an emotional impact with their Big Room take on Miley Cyrus' "Used To Be Young." On a different note, Steven Redant, Danny Verde, and Miss Nina Flowers hits us with its unapologetic queerness the circuit anthem "Arriba Maricones." Best Updated Circuit Anthems Classics The top honor for the best updated remixed classic is a tie! Kudos to the Weehs Michelini remix of "Absolutely Not" by Deborah Cox and Rafael Barreto's ...

Sure, we've sprinkled in a few gems from the late 70s, but the spotlight is mainly on the 80s. Let's jump into it. Opening with a Bang: "Driver's Seat" Kicking off the set is "Driver's Seat," a 1979 classic from Sniff 'n' the Tears. Block & Crown bring it to 2021 with their House remix. It's a tune that has graced numerous commercials and TV shows. Although it peaked at only #15 on the U.S. charts, many of this remember this earworm fondly. Unexpected Remixes: "Sultans of Swing" One delightful surprise here is Block & Crown's fresh take on Dire Straits' 1979 mega-hit "Sultans of Swing." They titled their version "Swingin Sultan," and it's a beauty. This remix stays loyal to the original while adding a modern twist, making it a perfect throwback. Rock Classics Reimagined Speaking of rock, we've got more. The Knack's 1979 hit "My Sharona" gets a Funky House twist, thanks to Grooveband and Ghostmasters. Block & Crown also rework Ram Jam's rock staple "Black Betty," ensuring that these remixed songs from the 80s and late 70s keep the dance floor buzzing. Disco Gurls on Tina Turner's "The Best" Disco Gurls dazzle us with their modernization of Tina Turner's anthem "The Best." Titled "U're Simply The Best," it preserves the original's spirit while injecting it with a new groove. If only this had been available for our Tina Tribute set. A Smorgasbord of Modern Takes on 80s Classics For those craving more, we've got a plethora of modern remixes your 80s-loving heart will adore. From "Should I Stay or Should I Go" by The Clash to "Hungry Eyes" by Eric Carmen, we've covered it all. Others like "One Night in Bangkok" by Murray Head and "Your Love" by The Outfield get their much-deserved spotlight. Authenticity Matters Although about half of these tracks feature the original vocals, the rest utilize talented soundalike artists. But don't let that sway you! These remixed songs from the 80s and a few from the late 70s offer a fresh, nostalgic journey worth taking. A couple of mashups even make an appearance, adding extra flavor. What's Next? Whether you grew up in this era or are a fan looking to discover these classics, this throwback set is a treasure. Stay tuned for our Fall Edition 2023, which will be dropping soon, along with new episodes of Peak Hour and Club Fusion. Until the next time...ENJOY!

This isn't your usual fare. We're talking about songs that evoke nostalgia, remixed by familiar names like Block & Crown and GhostMasters. Interestingly, these creators are mixing it up—literally. They're giving a fresh beat to songs that you probably never thought would belong in the Dance, Disco, or House categories. In fact, our buddy DJ Freddy Greene started paving this route a while back. Remember his Disco and '80s Dance edits? He was all about those DJ-friendly versions. However, he also began adding beats to pop songs, and I must admit, it left me a bit puzzled. Hits and Misses: A Mixed Bag of Remixes Now that others are jumping on this trend, the results are, let's say, a mixed bag. Take Heart's iconic Rock ballad "Alone." Now picture it with a House beat. Sounds odd? That's because it is, and even we're curious to see how you'll react to these new mixes. You'll notice the first volume spreads its influences across several decades but leans heavily towards the '80s. Volume 2? It's almost exclusively an '80s fiesta, with a sprinkling of late-'70s tracks to keep you guessing. There are definitely some throwback songs that will not only surprise you but knock you off your feet. Keeping Up With the Prolific Output of Dance Edits Just try to keep pace; these artists are pushing out songs faster than you can say "remix." All the selections in these volumes have been amassed since our Summer Throwback in June. There's enough material for a third volume, but we're saving those gems for a spring release If these revamped classics tickle your fancy, head over to Beatport and look under their Funky House category. You'll find a plethora of these tracks, and other DJs entering this realm. Spotify and Apple Music are also good platforms to follow these artists. Trust us, the tracks we're showcasing barely scratch the surface of what these DJs offer. Here are their Spotify and Apple Music pages: Block & Crown:  Spotify   Apple Music GhostMasters:  Spotify   Apple Music Measuring Success of this Throwback and What Lies Ahead We'll be keeping a close eye on the success of these latest Throwback offerings. Their performance will shape the future of further releases in this niche. Our first two original volumes were big hits, and we're hopeful these will follow suit. But only time will tell. And don't forget, Party Favorz thrives on your support. If you're digging what we're putting together, think about making a donation today. Your contributions help us keep the dance floor alive.

Diving into her extensive discography—much of which predates my own musical awakening—left me utterly captivated. It's not just house music or the dance genres celebrated on Party Favorz that fascinate me; I'm a music aficionado through and through. My love spans everything from Motown to Stax, Soul, Disco, New Wave, Hard Rock, Punk, Country, and Pop. Franklin stands out as a monumental figure in my musical landscape. Whether I need a boost or I'm already riding a high, her songs are my go-to. Her vocal prowess and stylistic versatility are unmatched, and her influence during the politically charged 60s—when civil rights and anti-war protests were front and center—makes her deserving of her title, the Queen of Soul. Although Party Favorz focuses predominantly on dance music, Franklin's contributions to the genre shouldn't be underestimated. While she wasn't initially part of the dance music scene, her foray into it began in the early 80s with the disco classic "Jump To It" and later in the decade after switching Clive Davis' Arista Records on hits like "Freeway of Love," "Who's Zoomin' Who," and "Another Night." These songs showed her knack for genre fluidity. By the early 90s, Franklin had truly ventured into House Music, thanks to the C + C Music Factory's remix of "A Deeper Love" from the "Sister Act 2" soundtrack. This track has not only become a staple in DJ sets but is also an iconic anthem for the LGBTQ+ community. Worth noting is how today's DJs are reviving many of Franklin's earlier hits for new audiences. These songs are often sampled and remixed, creating a bridge between her legacy and contemporary dance music. This updated set is an extension of her original Diva Hall of Fame induction, and it incorporates new releases and alternate versions that weren't initially featured. As I heard about Franklin's illness, I felt compelled to revisit and expand this collection. I won't lie; blending these diverse genres was a complex undertaking, but it's been a labor of love. Today, Party Favorz honors Aretha Franklin, an undisputed icon in American music history, in the only way we know how. With utmost love and R-E-S-P-E-C-T, ladies and gentlemen, I present the incredible Aretha Franklin. Until the next time...ENJOY! Since the passing of Miss Aretha, there were several more remixes that dropped and suddenly, the second edition of her Diva Hall of Fame (and now Legacy) entries felt incomplete. I've since gone back and reworked the entire mix with the new entries and remastered everything for an overall better listening experience.

To kick things off, we're easing you into the groove with Birdee & Dr Packer's sultry number, "You Know I'm Ready." But wait, we're only warming up here. Ah, nostalgia, that sweet elixir! We've decided to bring back "Good Life" by Inner City—a timeless classic from 1989 that's still making waves in the House Music scene. It's almost like this golden oldie was destined to coexist with today's sonic landscape. So we took the origina, punched it up, and slid it right into the set. Isn't it fascinating how some anthems never lose their charm? They seamlessly meld into the fabric of contemporary Funky House Music. Just when you think you can catch your breath, we're turning up the heat. Cue the high-octane "Move That Body" by dance music legends Danny Tenaglia & Cevin Fisher. This thumping track signals a gear shift into the Big Room House realm. But don't get too comfy—some of these bangers wear the Tech House tag, a genre that's veering more toward the euphoric, peak-hour vibes we cherished in the '90s, yet it's unmistakably rooted in modern House Music. Speaking of which, let's talk about "Jealous" by Mochakk, a track that revives the iconic monologue from Loleatta Holloway's #1 Disco hit "Dreamin'." Holloway's legendary adlibs breathe life into this contemporary banger, making it an instant classic. Trust us, it's pure gold! And oh, have you heard "I Wanna Be Your Lover" by Mark Knight, Sgt Slick & Beverley Knight? It's an audacious take on Prince's 1980 hit, a song that they've rejuvenated while paying the ultimate homage. Beverley Knight's vocal finesse is just the icing on this groovy cake. Then we have Purple Disco Machine putting his unique spin on the 2001 Eurodance gem, "King of My Castle" by Wamdue Project. Trust him to take something already great and elevate it, wrapping it in his signature Funky House Music vibes while preserving the essence of the original. It's not just a remix; it's a transformation. But that's not all. Wedged between these standout tracks are other gems that are bound to make your Labor Day weekend an absolute sonic feast. Whether you're a Funky House Music aficionado or just dipping your toes in, this set promises something for everyone.

We figured the universe was giving us a nudge to drop another one for those seeking a mental escape. Clocking in at just over two hours, this latest installment is finely-tuned to serve as the ideal soundtrack for your chill-out sessions. Musical genres are like living organisms; they evolve. In keeping with the ever-changing landscape, this new Chill Out mix incorporates an eclectic blend of Melodic House and the freshest genre on the block—Amapiano. For the uninitiated, Amapiano burst onto the scene in South Africa in the mid-2010s, carving a unique niche for itself. Picture it as a sumptuous cocktail of deep house, jazz, and lounge vibes, all underscored by throbbing basslines and ethereal synths. But what really sets this mix apart? "Be The Change" serves as the linchpin of the experience. It's not just any chill-out track; it's the perfect chill out, intertwining each musical element so fluidly that the transition from one tune to the next becomes almost imperceptible. That's the beauty of it—the lines blur, creating a seamless auditory tapestry that envelops you in its embrace. And that, we reckon, is the essence of a true chill-out session. Over the years, Party Favorz has been a sonic playground, experimenting with various versions and flavors of chill out. We've been storytellers, weaving mixes that sometimes feature sound effects as threads connecting each song. Our earliest sets even took you on a global tour, echoing themes that ranged from the meditative to the melancholic, and from hope to contemplation. While these Chill Out mixes may not be the blockbuster hits in our diverse array of releases, they've amassed a tribe of devout followers who find solace in the tranquility they offer. So yes, the Chill Out series may not hold the crown for popularity within the expansive Party Favorz universe, but it does boast a die-hard community of aficionados. It's for you, the loyals, the seekers of calm amidst chaos, that we dedicate this latest Chill Out offering. Until the next time...ENJOY!

Our goal? To make you feel the pulsating energy of the latest club songs, unforgettable party tracks, and revamped classics, all blended into one seamless dance party mix. Launching with the unmistakable vibes of Fisher and Kita Alexander's "Atmosphere" - a tune that just breathes the balmy embrace of the season - this new installment in our Club Fusion series is a whirlpool of auditory delight. Bebe Rexha and David Guetta are back with "One in a Million," following up their colossal hit "I'm Good (Blue)." Alan Walker's collaboration with Zak Abel, "Endless Summer," is a summer dance party anthem that will surely leave you craving more. Tiesto and Swedish House Mafia are at it again, this time gifting us dancefloor stunners "Drifting" and "Ray of Solar." Swathed in entrancing beats and ethereal vocals, these tracks are must-haves for any dance party mix. Sonny Fodera, MK, and Clementine Douglas create magic with "Asking," a tune that's already sparking intriguing mashups, like one with Solu Music's "Fade" from 2006. Meanwhile, Peggy Gou's "(It Goes Like) Nanana" receives a techno transformation by Maddix, intertwining the famous ATB riff from 9PM (Till I Come), taking the track to a whole new level. Dubstep, known for its distinctive and unconventional beat, is making a significant splash. Issey Cross's "Bittersweet Goodbye" and Becky Hill's "Disconnect" are shining examples of mainstream crossover hits. Tiesto's remixing skills turn these Dubstep tracks into something entirely new, providing DJs with additional options for their sets. Keep in mind that the tradional Dubstep is not DJ-friendly so we went with alternate versions courtesy of Tiesto even though his remix of "Bittersweet Goodbye" still retains the 87 BPM signature traditional of Dubstep. The dance music scene is witnessing a revolutionary shift with the emergence of high-speed tracks that range from 138 to 145BPM. These aren't your typical Hard Dance pieces, as they bypass the Techno nuances, embracing instead the conventional House Music style. This has led to the birth of an entirely new and as-yet-unnamed genre. For our purposes at Party Favorz, we've coined this captivating style as "Jump House" Jump House made its mark with the success of last year's track B.O.T.A (Baddest of Them All) by Eliza Rose & Interplanetary Criminal. This song opened the floodgates, encouraging an array of artists to join the wave. Our end of summer dance party mix, Summer Farewell 2023,

This time, the beat is wild, and the rhythm is tribal. We're here to take you on a sonic adventure that has everything from nostalgia to the latest big tribal house hits. We kick things off with a heart-rending tribute mix dedicated to an icon whose recent loss is still a heavy weight on our hearts. Who can forget the magnetic song "Nothing Compares 2 U" from 1990? Well, Israel's Tomer Maizner has turned this tear-jerker into an enormous big room remix. It's a tribute that manages to honor the original while turning it into a colossal sing-a-long for the broken-hearted. Not to be left behind, Kylie Minogue's unstoppable summer hit "Padam Padam" is transformed into a big room sensation by Toy Armada, an artist known for his creativity and flair. The essence of circuit tribal house is alive and well, especially with collaborations like the one between Toy Armada and Jace M on hits like "Alone" by Kim Petras, featuring Nicki Minaj. Their combination delivers a force that resonates with the dance floor, leaving everyone craving more. But what's a summer without some classics reinvented? Guy Scheiman makes a triumphant return with a progressive remake of Donna Summer's "Hot Stuff," while Dario Xavier adds his unique touch to current hits and classic Eurodance sensations. These sounds, rich with the essence of circuit anthems, will have you dancing like never before. Party Favorz's commitment to innovation is also reflected in our efforts to blend the Circuit & Anthem series with our Tea Dance collections. The goal? To enhance the listening experience without becoming repetitive. And when we call upon our creative geniuses like Jace M & Toy Armada, they rise to the challenge. The mantle of remix duty, once filled by the likes of Hex Hector, Almighty, and 7th Heaven, now proudly resides with Dirty Disco, creating floor-stompers that are original and mesmerizing. Our love for the dance floor goes beyond one style, as Dirty Disco brings gems like Rita Ora's "You and I" and "GODDESS" by Keeana Kee and Ariana Castelli. These tracks encapsulate the spirit of the LGBTQ community, uplifting and empowering. Keep an eye on DJs like Ray Isaac, who's taken his game to a whole new level. With remixes of Eurovision winners and potential pop superstars, Isaac shows that Dirty Disco isn't the only game in town, as he carves a niche for himself in the world of circuit anthems and circuit tribal house.
