Hottest day of the summer.  Here is a little something to beat the heat.  Actually, it’ll probably make you sweat more…so listen to it indoors.

Actually, it would be perfect on a run or the bike.  Or at 1am doing visual design.

Some of my recent mixes have pushed a little more progressive…even trancey…and the wife wasn’t feelin’ it. So I was inspired by this lovely spring weather to put together an organic house mix that the wife can get behind. It gets a little more deep and minimal in the middle…but I tried to resist the temptation to take it progressive. For me, this set has a ton of tracks that are tough not to like…house music fan or not. Enjoy!

I’ve been listening to my Back to Mine vol 3 Mix and one night decided that I should take it in another direction…probably because I was doing visual design…and I prefer my visual design soundtrack to be decidedly more aggressive.

So here is the extended and reworked version of that mix.  It’s kind of all over the place but its 2 hours of good times…to me anyways.  Hope you dig it.

This one is 53 minutes of eclectic earphone bliss.  It’s a little all over the place…but it works for me.  The funny thing about this one is the virtual lack of beats compared to my other mixes.  Not a single hip hop or house track to be found.  For full effect, crank it up through a set of headphones.

Rock it.

As you may know, I prefer my music mixed. To me, it adds to the experience. It’s like a musical prix fixe, if you will. I’ve done a couple of mixes so far, but decided to get a little more ambitious with this one.

The idea behind this one was to build four different hour long mixes that would correspond to what I’d want to hear during different stages of an evening.

For the second volume in my little personal Back to Mine collection, I dug into my buddy Steve’s ipod and put together a “Back to My Mom’s” mix circa 1990.  This mix is a testimony to a time in my life when I didn’t know much about myself or my place in the world — but I knew that I loved beats and that its more fun to dance while partying than to sit just around.

The mix starts out with some of my favorite hip-hop tracks from that era and then moves quickly into a bunch of “Mayfield tracks” (aka stuff that we would have rocked in Tony Pegas’ basement back in the day).  Killer EBM and industrial dance stuff with some legendary electronic tracks thrown in.  The set ends with a couple of alternative classics that, although not necessarily dance tracks, seemed to always find their way on to the proverbial decks.  It’s a little slice of P.T. Flagg’s.

Enjoy!

I’ve been a big fan of the “Back to Mine” series since its inception.  Essentially, it asks famous DJs or electronic music producers to put together a mixed compilation of tracks that you’d hear at their house after a night out rather than during the night out itself.

So, I decided to put one together myself.  Just for fun.  And to express myself a little.  These are some of my favorite tunes hopefully put together in a way that makes a little sense.  Enjoy!
