Mike Bolante's Mixes

Nothing like being in your 20s, carefree, having fun. This was also the time I discovered clubbing. Although I loved music and knew about djing but it wasn’t a passion as it is now.

Clubbing was just so much fun… It was fun because of friends. All the parties, the laughter, the embarassment… I can truly say it was what made it worthwhile… making all those memories…

This is for all my friends back in the day… Was listening to a lot of these tracks while biking and it made me reminisce of our days at Porch, Venezia, Stars, ABGs, Mars, Euphoria, Ponti… I know there are many more… Know that I cherish those memories still. I celebrate our friendship of more than 20 years!

It's been awhile since I came out with a mix. Here's a new one with a genre that is niche but catchy. I am a big fan of the Artful Dodger and this is where I learned about Garage, specifically UK Garage. It became so big that the music influenced dance music in the US and even some House music releases. I love listening to these catchy and bouncy tunes. I hope you enjoy the music as much as I enjoy mixing them.

o my 80s kids, fans of The Breakfast Club, Pretty in Pink, that era. This one is for you! Enough said!

I have done this before... a mix that features all disco. Maybe not as obscure as Scott K. but disco nonetheless. Gotta thank him for my influences in disco when I was in the States. Loving it as always. Locally, gotta go with Manong Boyet Sison.... but mostly, it was when I was younger with my parents having all these records and a turntable. Disco will always be close to my heart. Will always be happy to play it.

This is for my mom and pops, the young at heart, and for all those disco lovers like me.

The 90's were an awesome time for me. It was carefree. Before House, Techno and Trance, this is what was popular back then. Had great memories back then. I could remember back then these songs were playing in our cars. Some of us even have subs and would put it on blast. It's funny when I think about it, it seems like all we did were in a music video with each and every track.... each of them have a memory... a moment.

These goes to out to my fellow 90's kids out there. Guess what the kids of today listen to the same thing so we are back IN! LOL

Btw, if you guys love the music I have been putting out, tips and donations would be much appreciated. Music is one of main sources of livelihood and all of us in the industry have been greatly affected. Be it a live set, a mix, a bootleg, a song... we play from it from the heart... . Only when you are willing and able to do so. Thank you as always but either way I hope you enjoy the music!

It's Day 275. It's that time of the month where I celebrate being with Missy. Some people may call it cheesy but for us both, and others who are on the same boat, we celebrate these milestones as it helps us appreciate the things we often forget.... especially as time goes on.

I try to relish every moment, as our lives are at midstream. I try to live it to the fullest with Missy as every minute, every second is precious, As we are in the midst of this lockdown, it makes me realize that a lot more especially I could not be with her.

This is my soundtrack to her since we have met. It somehow tells our story and it ends with a song that I will never forget about her. Cherish and appreciate your love ones... Don't wait til its too late.

Weeks into this quarantine gave me a lot of time to reminisce about the old days. Growing up in the 80's and the 90's was a lot of fun. We didn't have the technology we had back then to keep us preoccupied, we had friends... we had each other. With that, we had a soundtrack.

All the songs you will here on this mix represents that... the emotions, the humor, the experience of it all... When you listen to this, it will not only make you groove but it will make you remember all those times back then when you were a kid in the 80s and the 90's!

So kids here you go!

Made this mix with all the free time we have. The songs here are from current indie tracks to house to R&B and ending it with a classic for everyone. People always ask me what kind of DJ I am, I just say I am a DJ. I pretty much can DJ anything. Yes, just like everyone I have my preferences but I do play what songs I feel like playing and it's pretty much across the board. After many years of playing, I not longer as conscious about what I play. I just play and like everyone else I am a fan of music. That's how I do it. There's your answer. Hope you enjoy MY SOUNDTRACK. You'll be getting a lot of it in the next few days, and weeks!

Guess what, this is also on Spotify as playlist so you can listen to each song as a single:
