UNFILTERED. Episode 26, recorded live at Empire Studios.

One-take. No edits.

This mix is my entry to the Cupra On The Pulse 2026 DJ competition.

This mix is built to demonstrate control of energy, contrast, and transition across eras of house music, opening with Emanuel Satie’s ‘Give It All’ — a haunting statement piece that sets the tone from the outset.

From there, it moves into high-energy vocal house with ‘Brighter Days’ and ‘Move Out Of My Way’, before pivoting into a groove-led section centred around Sidney Charles’ ‘Groove Move’, framed by Dale Howard’s ‘Funk Rider’ and Ben Miller & SOMA’s ‘Pedal To The Floor’.

Dario Nunez’s ‘Let The Groove’ closes the first half, followed by a deliberate shift into nostalgia with JX’s ‘Son Of A Gun’. That reference point carries into the second half, where Max Styler’s ‘Inferno’ transitions the mix into a more driving tech house direction.

The energy continues through ‘Mind Games’ and ‘Pass Out’, before Todd Terry & DREKKER’s ‘Kisss’ sets up the final peak.

The mix closes with Matt Sassari’s remix of Faithless’ ‘Insomnia’ — a recognisable, high-impact finish.

The full video version, including breakdowns of each transition, is available on my YouTube channel.

A one-hour House and Tech House DJ mix recorded live at The Breakfast Club in Wigwam, Dublin.

The best of House music in 2025 is the focus for this episode — a collection of tracks that brought groove, energy, and feel-good moments to dancefloors and workouts throughout the year.

The Warm Up for this episode is Alex Atenciano & Mellizos’ ‘Get Lit’, setting the tone with a rolling groove. Chinonegro’s ‘Boogie’ follows, full of funk and movement, before Bad Intensions brings the summer feel with ‘Ibiza Vibes’. Demi Riquísimo & Luke Alessi’s ‘Yes Bby’ keeps the momentum building, with Andrea Lane’s ‘You Can’t Stop’ pushing things forward with confidence and drive.

From there, the mix leans into soulful, vocal-led House. Jocelyn Brown teams up with Luke Alessi & Chloé Caillet on ‘The One’, before Chico Rose’s ‘POM’ and Virak & Yvan Polge’s ‘Carry Me’ keep the energy light but locked in. Bad Intentions & Tommy Mambretti’s ‘Soul Sick’ adds a deeper edge before Kristin Velvet’s ‘Pump It Up’ injects pure dancefloor energy.

As we move towards the peak, Sharam Jey & Marco Lys deliver ‘Shake Your’, followed by JPA & Kate Watts with ‘Fierce’. Piero Pirupa & Frank’O Moiraghi’s ‘In Da House’ brings classic House attitude, before Mark Knight, Roland Clark & James Hurr with ‘Get Deep’ and our Finisher this episode.

We Warm Down this episode with Jazzy & KILIMANJARO’s ‘No Bad Vibes’, remixed by Adriatique & Samm — a smooth, uplifting closer that perfectly captures the spirit of House music in 2025.

This episode is about groove, soul, and feel-good energy. Enjoy the mix and keep moving with The Workout Studio.

The best of Tech House in 2025 is the focus for this mix – a collection of tracks that have defined dancefloors, workouts, and DJ sets throughout the year.

We kick things off with Matroda’s ‘Feel The Heat’, a track that set the tone early in 2025 with its instantly recognisable groove and modern edge. FDVM, Jude & Frank follow with ‘Touch Me’, keeping things rolling before Mirko Donnini’s ‘Body Talk’ adds raw, club-focused energy. James Hurr’s ‘You Get Down’ continues that momentum, sitting perfectly between classic house influence and contemporary tech house production.

From there, the mix moves deeper into peak-time territory. VOLAC’s ‘Enemies’ brings heavyweight bass and attitude, followed by Seeing Double’s ‘Watch Me’, one of the most infectious tech house records of the year. Adaru’s ‘Cruisers’ keeps the pressure on before Max Styler steps in with ‘Inferno’, a standout 2025 release built for impact and intensity.

The middle of the episode is anchored by Flashmob’s ‘Stories About Music’, a track that blends groove, emotion, and dancefloor credibility. Sides Of The Sun’s ‘Your Mind’ and REBRN’s ‘Go’ push the energy forward with precision and drive, while Alaia & Gallo’s ‘Lipstick’ delivers pure club heat with no wasted moments.

As we approach the final stretch, GIACOBBI’s ‘Better’ and ‘Money Loves Speed’ from Philip Kolak, JAMZ & Simon Jayson keep the tempo locked and focused. CID’s ‘Pass Out’ follows — one of the most effective tech house songs of the year — before we close the episode with ‘Left Right’ by EREZ & Rafael, a powerful, rhythmic closer that perfectly sums up the sound of 2025.

This episode is a snapshot of a year in Tech House — energy, groove, and records built to move both body and mind.

Enjoy the session and keep moving with The Workout Studio.

We start this episode's Warm Up with ‘Boogie’ by Chinonegro — a funky, groove-heavy opener that eases you in with smooth percussion and bass that’s impossible not to move to. Easttown follows with ‘Get Ready’, a track that lives up to its name by building tension and rhythm before we dive into the main section of the mix.

The Workout begins with ‘Let’s Begin’ from Devault — the perfect track to set the tone for the session ahead with its deep melodic edge and modern punch. Marvin Sykes keeps the energy up with ‘Feel The Rush’, a vibrant, vocal-driven cut that radiates movement and flow.

Next up, Alaio & Gallo’s ‘Your Mind’ brings a darker, more hypnotic tone before Ammo Avenue injects warmth and positivity with ‘Sunshine’. Andrea Lane’s ‘You Can’t Stop’ maintains that momentum — confident, bright, and relentless.

From there, Rello’s ‘East2West’ adds bounce and drive as we transition deeper into the session. Flashmob’s ‘Stories About Music’ layers rich house textures with a rolling rhythm before Kamino’s ‘Discotech’ pushes the energy higher — a peak-time groove built for the middle of the mix.

Club De Combat’s ‘Le Fire’ keeps that same heat before FIRZA drops ‘Lollipop’ — melodic, memorable, and full of personality. Cassian, SCRIPT, and Belladonna’s ‘Where I’m From’ follows, adding a progressive, emotional touch before the set reaches its crescendo.

This week’s Finisher is ‘The Feeling’ by Massano — cinematic and euphoric, the kind of track that demands full focus to the very end.

Finally, we wind things down with the Warm Down — ‘If U Ever’ by Meloko, Konvex, and Garla — a smooth, atmospheric closer that leaves you centred and satisfied after an intense session.

Enjoy the rhythm, the focus, and the journey — and as always, keep moving with The Workout Studio.

We start this week’s Warm Up with ‘Lay Back’ from Brad Bunner and AG Swifty — a smooth, rolling groove. It’s warm, rhythmic, and easy to move to; the ideal entry point before things get heavier.

Moving into the Workout with ‘Enemies’ by VOLAC — bold, bass-driven, and full of attitude. Seeing Double’s ‘Watch Me’ follows, one of those infectious tech house tracks that instantly commands attention. Adaru’s ‘Cruisers’ keeps the pace tight before Mau P steps in with ‘Gimme That Bounce’, a modern standout that lives up to its name with punch and swagger.

From there, the energy deepens with Discip’s ‘Mind Games’, a hypnotic cut that bridges the mix into more progressive territory. Cirez D’s ‘Glow’ and Betical’s ‘Do It Again’ drive that shift further — dark, spacious, and powerful. GusGus’ ‘Lifetime (Raxon Remix)’ adds texture and emotion, while HARDEN & Super Flu’s ‘Breathe’ keeps the rhythm alive with layered precision. We close out the main set with Rafael & EREZ and their track ‘Left Right’, a pulsating finisher to the Workout section that hits with both groove and intent.

This week’s Finisher is the Trentemøller remix of Röyksopp’s ‘What Else Is There’ — cinematic, haunting, and beautifully intense. It’s the perfect track to close the peak of the mix.

Finally, we ease into the Warm Down with the Helsloot remix of M.A.N.D.Y. & Booka Shade’s ‘Body Language’. This song samples one my favourite basslines, taken from Jax Jones’ ‘You Don’t Know Me’, the perfect way to end the session.

Enjoy the flow and keep moving with The Workout Studio!

This episode is all about classic house songs and our Warm Up song is a true classic — ‘Show Me Love’ by Robin S. Few songs capture the essence of house music better. That unmistakable bassline and soaring vocal have been filling dancefloors for over 30 years and still sound just as powerful today.

From there, we dive straight into the Workout, kicking things off with two pure 90s anthems — ‘Freed From Desire’ by Gala and ‘Dreamer’ by Livin’ Joy — both guaranteed to lift your mood and get the energy going. ‘Son Of A Gun’ by JX keeps that early 90s energy alive before we move into Moloko’s ‘Sing It Back’, a timeless track.

The flow continues with Stardust’s ‘Music Sounds Better With You’, arguably one of the most iconic house tracks ever produced. Roger Sanchez’s ‘Another Chance’ and Armand Van Helden’s ‘U Don’t Know Me follow’ — two emotional yet driving records that perfectly blend soul and rhythm.

We then up the tempo with ‘It Just Won’t Do’ by Tim Deluxe and the irresistible ‘Get Get Down’ from Paul Johnson. ‘Groovejet (If This Ain’t Love)’ from Spiller and Sophie Ellis-Bextor adds that disco sparkle before David Morales’ ‘Needin’ U’ brings a pure feel-good wave of classic house euphoria to round out the workout section.

This week’s Finisher is a wild one — ‘Where’s Your Head At’ by Basement Jaxx. Explosive, unfiltered energy to push you through those final reps or sprints.

Finally, we cool things down with ‘At Night’ by Shakedown for the Warm Down. A deep, hypnotic groove to ease back the pace and close out the session in style.

Trying to pick one hour of classic house songs wasn’t easy and no doubt we left out some classics so let us know in the comments what songs we should include if we do another episode of classic house.

We start this week’s Warm Up with a collaboration full of pedigree — Jazzy teaming up with Adriatique, Samm and KILMANJARO on ‘No Bad Vibes’. The title says it all: smooth, uplifting, and the perfect way to set the tone. We follow that with ‘House Experience’ from Earth n Days and Franco Moiraghi — a groove-driven track that nods back to classic house energy while keeping things modern.

From there, we step into the Main Workout. Dario Nunez kicks things off with ‘Let The Groove’ before we flow straight into Piero Pirupa and Frank’O Moiraghi’s ‘In Da House’. MEDUZA and Goodboys’ ‘Piece Of Your Heart’ needs no introduction — a modern anthem that lifts the pace right on cue. Bauti Tesei’s ‘Shake Dat’ adds raw punch, before Riordan & Danny P’s latest release ‘Jump Higher’ does exactly what it promises.

We change the mood slightly with Sonora & OFFMODE and ‘Famosa’ and then Max Styler, alongside Deomid, brings in ‘Get Down’. GREG and Pedroz go bold with ‘Spend Money’ before one of the biggest producers of recent years, Mau P, arrives with ‘Tesla’. Solardo’s ‘Outta Space’ samples the classic Prodigy song of the same title.

This week’s Finisher comes from Brazil’s Vintage Culture with ‘Do You’, a track that feels tailor-made for pushing through those final reps or sprints.

Finally, we ease things down with the Warm Down this episode from R3HAB and ROU’s Ten Out Of Ten. A melodic and catchy closer that brings the session full circle, leaving you with energy but also space to breathe.

We kick off this week’s Warm-Up with the funky and modern Paco Osuna remix of Phats & Small’s ‘Turn Around’, which is now over 25 years old! We finish this episode’s Warm-Up with the POLOVICH remix of the much-sampled Eurythmics classic, ‘Sweet Dreams’, from 1983.

An unlikely end-of-summer hit starts off the main Workout in the form of Vinter’s take on ‘Space Pump (Space Jam)’. I came across ‘Rhythm With You’ from Irish artist Malley a few weeks ago and have been wanting to fit it into a mix since and I feel it slots in perfectly between Hidden Empire ‘Feel Free’ and Pagano & James Hurr ‘Ultraviolet’. One of my favourite songs from 2025 so far, CID’s ‘Pass Out’, is up next before San Pacho & Nevve ‘Go Getta’.

We up the bass a little from there, starting with Nari & Milani and ‘Mimetic’. Shiba San, ALL U NEED, Hawkeys and Kapuzen all feature in this section of the episode before our Finisher this week which comes from Tini Gessler and ‘Amplified’.

Our Warm-Down song this week is a unique blend of UK and Chicago House, coming from Lee Walker and DJ Deeon respectively. If that wasn’t enough, Italian producer Ben Kim adds a Tech House twist to this Defected release which is sure to be a big hit this autumn.
