After last year's brief hiatus, Party Favorz makes a triumphant return with a dazzling array of Christmas remix songs for dance to set your holiday season alight. 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. We'll cap off the year with our "Blow Your Own Horn" set, ensuring a festive and energetic start to the New Year.

Party Favorz continues to redefine the holiday dance music landscape, blending classic charm with contemporary zest with Christmas remix songs for dance. This year's collection is a testament to our dedication to delivering high-quality, enjoyable dance music. Stay tuned for our upcoming releases, and as always...ENJOY!

Well HO! HO! HO! After careful consideration as to what I will likely do next year — I decided to go ahead and drop the ultimate EDM Christmas dance party mix for everyone's enjoyment. Well, maybe not everyone.

This special edition EDM set features a variety of genres including Electro House, Dubstep, Trance, Trap, Hip-Hop, House, and even Eurodance. It's quite a bit to digest and may not be for everyone but that's why Party Favorz has years of holiday dance remix podcasts that may be more to your liking in our back catalog.

I listen to the original mix yesterday and was impressed at how I was able to get such a diverse group of songs at wildly different BPM(s) to mesh cohesively. One of the tricks is to duplicate a few songs like "All I Want For Christmas,' 'Santa Claus Is Coming To Town,' and 'Last Christmas.' To be certain there were multiple copies of 'Jingle Bells' (a song I've always hated mainly for its lack of structure) 'Christmas, Baby Please Come Home' (one of my all-time favorites especially by Darlene Love and U2), and others but in the spirit of trying to keep this set short and sweet — I went with what worked. My only disappointment was no remix of 'Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas,' where the version by the Pretenders has special meaning to me. There was a decent remix of Lou Rawls' jazzed-up version but I couldn't make it work.

Overall, I'm glad I did this even though it's a one-off. Some of the songs will be included in next year's 'ULTIMATE' X-mas Dance set — especially the illusive dance mix of 'Happy X-mas (War Is Over)' by John Lennon and the Plastic Ono Band. I stumbled across this remix late last year and stowed it away for a rainy day and I'm pleased as punch to have stumbled across it.

Originally, I had three bonus sets scheduled for November then whittled it down to two but I was overwhelmed with what was already on my plate so I dropped both and kept the Purple Disco Machine Legacy set. I thought I'd give y'all a heads-up that one of those sets is going to see the light of day by the end of the week. It's totally out of leftfield and wholly unexpected but it's going to be one epic party set worth your time. That's all I'm saying at the moment.

Until the next time...ENJOY!

Party Favorz is wrapping up November with X-mas Dance 2021, the ultimate Christmas Dance Mix and we've gone overboard to bring newer holiday sounds remixed for the dance floor along with fan favorites from over the years.

There were so many new remixes available — there was enough to make an EDM/Dance Club version but honestly, I'm petered out. That will be saved for the 2022 release.

This set leans heavily on the Circuit side because Dario Xavier released five holiday remixes coupled with one from last year I forgot I had. Jet Boot Jack released a remix for Diana Ross' version of 'This Christmas' (originally made famous by Donny Hathaway) and Joel Dickinson (a.k.a. Thee Werq'n Bitches and formerly one-half of The Assembly with Billy Waters) remixed The Carpenters' 'Merry Christmas Darling,' which I've had for several years but never used because it was kinda dark but figured 'what the hell.'

Of course, Houston's Dirty Disco dropped their annual holiday mix and this year's entry features Kiva on the Mariah Carey classic 'All I Want For Christmas."

The rest of the set was rounded out by favorites from over the years including alternate versions of many of those tracks rarely or never used in a set before.

Overall this is a solid effort that's bound to put a smile on the face of the most hardened Grinch.

The past 30 days have been pretty rough for me and it feels like I'm being pulled in multiple directions. Couple that with the typical holiday blues and I just need a little space for a bit. Don't even get me started over the exploding cases of Covid or the new variant discovered in Africa, which will be in your neighborhood before you finish listening to this latest set of holiday cheer. No, the irony isn't dead on me [grin].

I've cut back my ambitions for December so here's what to expect: First up will be the annual Jingle Electric featuring the latest Dance Club tracks, Holiday Edition 2021 featuring the latest Circuit and Anthems tracks, and then our Year In Dance featuring the biggest Dance songs of 2021. Finally, we'll cap the year off with the annual Blow Your Own Horn 2022, which is the ultimate New Year's dance party mix that raises the roof and burns down the year that was before bringing us into a new one.

As you can see, there's still a lot more to go. Until the next time...ENJOY!

As an avowed atheist, some of you may wonder why I bother dropping the X-mas Dance mix every year. I grew up in the Catholic church and for all the drama, the piss poor education, the failed attempt to teach creationism alongside actual science for which I questioned everything and was punished by Sister Ursula repeatedly, and the sexual abuse — you would think that I would shun the holiday season but I don't.

I have a love-hate relationship with Christmas in that I have great memories as a kid going to Corpus Christi, TX to visit Momo and Boonpa, aunts, uncles, and cousins, and always enjoyed myself. My grandparents were non-practicing Baptists, alcoholics, and basically hell raisers, which made them a lot of fun to be around. As I got older and after their deaths, the family pretty much splintered and the era of fun and family had come to an end.

By this time, I was in college in north Texas, alone, afraid, HIV+, and wondered when it was my turn to die. That never happened nor was I ever even close. I was new to the whole gay scene and had become great friends with Kurt who also happened to be from South Texas. He was a smart, bitchy queen that could slice through bullshit the minute it walked through the door. Yes, we were friends with benefits but that's about it.

I distinctly remember going to meet him for lunch during the season when he worked at Express in the mall and they were playing U2's rendition of "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)" over their speaker system in the store. There's a feeling of warmness I can't express that comes over me when I hear that song and think about our long-lost friendship. In fact, Kurt was the last person I stayed with in Dallas before driving nine hours back home for good. It's funny how these small insignificant fleeting moments come rushing back but here I am spilling my guts out.

I've been fortunate throughout my life to be in long-term relationships with frankly, some really great guys including my partner Rick for 18 years. I'm not an easy person to get along with and am appreciative of his patience but even he has his limits and puts me in my place when I need to be taken down. I have fond holiday memories of Tommy, Eddie, and Pete that I will cherish for the rest of my life.

Nevertheless, mood swings during the season are fairly typical for many people and I'm no different. I fall back on the music and the memories that filled me with happiness and sadness during the holidays and try to spread the joy to anyone needing a boost.

That being said — this will definitely be the last episode of this series. There's no sense in trying to top perfection.

Welcome to the annual holiday non-stop dance series X-mas Dance for 2019! I spent the better part of Thanksgiving working on this set because dinner wasn't served until 7pm. I had been busy scrounging my DJ service and various SoundCloud accounts to create this year's offering of holiday dance music favorites and really think I hit this one out of the park.

I went back this morning to ensure the integrity of the set and made some minor changes that only I would notice. If I'm happy — then I know y'all will be.

I've got all your favorite tracks that have appeared on various iterations of X-mas Dance over the years and scooped several new entries. I also added a few that only appeared once over the years. I also want to give a HUGE shout-out to our good friends from Mark D and JD Arnold a.k.a. Dirty Disco for sending me an advance copy of this year's entry into the holiday dance music landscape, "Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow" by the fabulous Debby Holiday. I've been begging them to update the Weather Girls classic "Dear Santa (Bring Me A Man This Christmas," but they completely forgot. Mark is all on board and promised to deliver their version next year.

In the interim, I came across this fantastic version by Raquela in my DJ service and ran with it. The vocals are spot on and her version delivers a circuit-friendly re-work that stays true to the original, even if it could use a bit more energy.

Overall, I think this year's X-mas Dance is the best one I've put together to date. From the serious and the solemn to the camp (without being too over the top) — this delivers the cheer to brighten up your holidays.

I've got the rest of December all mapped out and may even try to squeeze in the final Ultimate 80's Dance Mix this next week. Expect a head-spinning succession of new releases (including the highly anticipated Year In Dance and Blow Your Own Horn) by the end of the month.

I want to give a HUGE shout-out to our good friend Glenn A. from the UK for his kind donation. They are always welcome as I'm not exactly getting rich from the subscription service.

Until the next time...ENJOY!

I see many of you have already been hitting up on last year's X-Mas Dance Mix. FYI, all past Christmas dance mixes are still available on the site by clicking here. I've been holding out for some new entries and only three came through. Out of those, only one was worth adding.

I was so looking forward to Dirty Disco's release this year that when it dropped, I was disappointed if not severely heartbroken. I was hoping they'd do a remake of the Weather Girls classic "Dear Santa (Bring Me A Man This Christmas)" which is so up their alley. Unfortunately, they put out a lackluster dance mix of "Last Christmas" by Brenda Reed, which is not some of her best work, so I took a pass and brought back the Young Divas version of "Dear Santa" and a George Michael bootleg of "Last Christmas."

I kept this year's entry tight and remastered several older mixes to bring them up to today's standards. While many of the tracks have been recycled from previous efforts, isn't that what Christmas music is all about? That is, hearing your favorite tunes year after year by your favorite artists and never getting sick of them. Throw in a few newbies or alternate versions and you got yourself a little holiday party rocking around the Christmas tree.

I for one never get sick of hearing the Eagles take on "Please Come Home For Christmas", or the Pretenders' version of "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas," or even U2's "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)." These are just a couple of my personal favorites.

At the end of the day, many of the major artists who do release updated versions of holiday classics, typically don't invest in commissioning dance mixes for those tunes. The last major ones we've gotten were from Kelly Clarkson, Mariah Carey, and Leona Lewis which are included here. Even then, that was several years ago.

That's unfortunate because there really IS a yearning for these tracks to be remixed.

That being said, I am NOT about to ruin your holiday season by not creating some holiday magic for my followers. Who am I to scrooge you out of the most wonderful time of the year?

As many of you know, I am an atheist but even I don't allow that to get in the way of enjoying the music I grew up with, and in a genre that lifts my spirits. Therefore, once again into the bleach, Party Favorz presents X-Mas Dance 2K18, the Ultimate Non-stop Christmas Dance Mix... ENJOY!

Surprise! As Party Favorz winds down our 10th year, I found myself with some extra time and decided to pull together that one killer holiday dance set that I felt I had not yet achieved. X-mas Dance Mix 2K17 achieves that goal and more.

Pulling together my favorite seasonal dance classics like Mariah Carey's "All I Want For Christmas," Band Aid's "Do They Know It's Christmas," Christine Aguilera's "The Christmas Song," and Kristine W's "Oh Holy Night" while adding a couple of new mixes like Dirty Disco & Jeanie Tracy's "Santa Baby," and George Michael's (a.k.a. Wham!) "Last Christmas" coupled with smooth transitions that are really hard to achieve on a mix of songs like these, you have the makings of the ULTIMATE holiday dance mix or one that I can finally say...YES! instead of "this will suffice."

Since the holidays are always pretty rough for me as I put on a happy face and with all the crap being perpetrated on the world by our own demented, narcissistic and much-loathed president maybe, just maybe this can pull you out of the doldrums. If so, then I've done my small part in making the world a better place. ENJOY!

It's the most wonderful time of the year (again)! That time where we stuff ourselves with turkey, fight over politics with family and friends, sleep it off, watch football and parades and try to get the best steals on gifts for loved ones or ourselves.

In an effort to get everyone in the mood and help ease the frustrations usually associated with all of the above, I'm reposting the X-mas Dance Mix from 2016 to help lessen the anxiety and hopefully put you in a better frame of mind.

Over the years, I've made a handful of these awesome holiday dance sets for those that like a lot of bounce to their holiday music. I've linked all of them below but if you only need one, then this is the one you want.

Hope everyone shows some restraint in their consumerist tendencies unless you want to endow Party Favorz with the gift that keeps on giving [grin].

Make sure to pay close attention to the site because I've got a boatload of new material heading your way beginning tomorrow and starting with the 2017 Jingle Electric.

Until then...HAPPY THANKSGIVING unless you live outside of the US. In that case, HAPPY THURSDAY! ENJOY!!!

HO! HO! HO! I wasn't sure how to pull this off but somehow I managed. I had several dance tunes leftover from X-mas Dance 2010 and 2K14 that I wasn't sure how to incorporate into a cohesive set. With a few new entries showing up and help from our good friend Marshall B., I was able to string together an all new set that includes some of our favorite tunes from season's past.

X-mas Dance 2K16 is one BIG fat continuous holiday dance mix that hits all the right notes and includes remixes from several decades starting from the 70's [gulp]. Many of the perennial favorites are here. With Party Favorz coming up on our 10 year anniversary in 2017, this will undoubtedly be our final mix in the X-mas Dance category but likely a favorite of yours for years to come.

I want to give a HUGE shoutout to our followers who have contributed to the ongoing operations of Party Favorz. These awesome folks are: Anthony S. $100; Glenn A. $20; Keith M. $100; Casper Y. $200; Doug B. $50; Ignacio G $10; David J. $25; Martti T. $50; djsr46 $100

These donations have been a major source of relief but more (of course) is always welcome and in fact needed. If you would like to contribute to making this the best damn dance podcast on the planet, you can do so at https://partyfavorz.com/donations/18024/.

I'll finally be rolling out the Jingle Electric and Holiday Edition over the course of the next two weeks before bringing out the year's top guns for the Year in Dance.

I hope everybody has a fantastic weekend. Until the next time...ENJOY!

Les from Static Sessions, who is one of Party Favorz longtime followers sent me his Christmas dance remix yesterday and I was so impressed, I got his permission to post it to the site.

If you need a lot more energy to get your holiday spirits up, this set should do the trick.  Think of it like Santa and Rudolph dropping some circuit, funky and EDM into their MP3 player for the long journey around the world.  This should keep the mood up for the rest of the reindeer and will certainly do the same for you.

Until the next time...ENJOY!
