Labor Day Weekend may signal the end of summer, but I’m turning up the heat with over 90 minutes of uplifting summertime tunes! For a second year, I’ve produced a special edition end-of-summer mix that starts poolside, with a few of my favorite disco, house and tea dance tracks. As the sun sets, the pianos get louder and the basslines get funkier. And finally, as the moon rises, the beats turn tribal and progressive, with a sampling of this season’s biggest club anthems.

Grab your sunscreen, turn up the volume, and get ready for another endless summer! xx

GUEST PODCAST! One of my favorite DJs brings his bouncy, uplifting sound to my Guest Mix series! UK DJ Joelby is well-known for his happy house sets, featuring lots of vocals and hands-in-the-air tunes! This special guest mix is full of feel-good tracks and classics, making it the perfect playlist for summer!

A message from Joelby: "10 years ago I started a podcast so I could share my favourite uplifting vocal house music with my friends who were spread across my two home countries, the UK and Australia. Since the very start I've always tried to keep to the rule that it has to get you moving, putting your hands up or singing along or it just won't fit. Eventually I started DJing, which has taken me to bars & clubs in London or dance parties like Sydney Mardi Gras, where still I apply those same rules to my live sets that I do to my podcasts. I love nothing more than bringing new music to people, so I'm so excited to share this taste of my style with you!"

GUEST MIX 006! Here's the latest installment of my 'guest mix' series, where I bring you exclusive podcasts from some of my favorite DJs and producers around the world. This edition comes from my good friend DJ Blacklow, who delivers over an hour of funky, chunky beats for spring!

Blacklow fell in love with dance music while living in New York City in the 90's, and his sets and remixes are inspired by some of NYC's legendary DJs and nightclubs. Today, he's based out of Los Angeles, but performs all over the country at many of the biggest gay clubs and dance festivals -- including Memorial Day Pensacola, Halloween New Orleans, and LA Pride, among many others. You can catch Blacklow in Vegas this weekend on Saturday night (March 31st) at Piranha Nightclub for Stripper Circus… or also alongside me this summer at Independence Week over the 4th of July in Provincetown at the Crown & Anchor.
