Vibe To the Latest Funky House For Spring

Party Favorz is back with the latest Funky House tunes for spring!
We’re kicking off the weekend with a double header, so I’ll keep this short and sweet. I’ve been working nonstop to get these sets out the door because I’ll be taking next week off to deal with some medical issues that have been dragging on for far too long.
To be blunt—things haven’t been going well on that front. The doctors seem intent on turning me into a painkiller junkie by stretching out this excruciating debridement process. What I really need is a surgeon to remove all the dead skin in one go, under anesthesia. This current approach just isn’t sustainable. Honestly, it should have been handled during my six-day hospital stay. But in typical U.S. healthcare fashion, the system is more focused on milking as much money from my insurance as possible—even if it comes at the expense of my well-being.
I’ll be back tomorrow with the Spring Edition for the circuit boys.Until the next time...ENJOY!

Spring Break 2025 Gone Wild: Club Beats, Bad Decisions & Beachfront Bangers

Spring Break 2025 Is Here and the Party Starts NOW!
Party Favorz is turning up the heat with our annual Spring Break 2025 series, packed with red-hot club anthems that are the perfect remedy for your mid-semester slump. Whether you're hitting the beaches or throwing down at a house party, this electrifying mix is your official soundtrack to letting loose and living loud.
This set is bursting with the biggest dance club songs dominating the scene right now. From Techno to Tech House, Hard Dance to Trance, and a healthy dose of Future House, the energy is relentless from start to finish. You’ll even catch several exclusive tracks and upfront promos that you won’t hear anywhere else—because that’s how we do it.
The Tracks Turning Heads
Standout tracks include the infectious “Tell Me” by Sonny Fodera and Clementine Douglas, and the high-octane floor-filler “The Way I Are” from Don Diablo. Max Styler delivers fire with “I Know You Want To,” while Tate McRae shifts gears into overdrive with “Sports Car.”
Pop royalty Lady Gaga works her magic on “Abracadabra,” and Lola Young keeps things wild and “Messy.” Party anthem “The Less I Know the Better” by Mau P is pure crowd control, and “Hustler” by Will Sparks, Joel Fletcher, and the always fierce Luciana brings the attitude. And let’s not forget the song climbing charts and playlists everywhere—“Don't Wake Me Up” by James Hype. It’s a beast.
Personal Favorites Worth Repeating
A few personal favorites that hit even harder:“I Look Good” by Jackie Hollander and Lizzy Land is pure self-love wrapped in a beat. David Guetta and Sia team up once again for the soaring “Beautiful People.”A throwback with fresh production, “Love the Way You Lie” from Eminem and Rihanna still cuts deep.The ever-iconic “Say My Name” by Destiny’s Child gets a modern dancefloor upgrade, and Daniel Bedingfield’s emotional ballad “If You’re Not the One” is reimagined for 2025 with a pulse-pounding edge.We round it out with a new standout, “Alive” by BK and Ella Young—a euphoric blend of emotion and energy that just feels right.
Spring Break 2025 Brings the Fire
The energy kicks off at full throttle and never lets up. Spring Break 2025 doesn’t just celebrate the season—it defines it. This mix delivers nonstop beats, soaring vocals, and crowd-commanding basslines that make it impossible not to move. Whether you're poolside, club-bound, or house-party ready, this set guarantees the vibes stay high.
We’ve been blown away by the steady stream of HOT House tracks dropping lately, and couldn’t resist riding that wave. So much so, we’re keeping the momentum alive with a brand new Funky House set landing next week that channels the sunny, sexy energy of Miami Music Week. Trust us—you won’t want to miss it.
Spring Break 2025 is officially on. Turn it up, lose yourself, and let the music carry you.

BackSpin: Electro House Classics & Other Millennial Dance Club Hits! [2007 — 2008] Volume 5

Party Favorz is back with Volume 5 of our BackSpin series, spotlighting standout cuts from the golden age of Dance Club Songs. This edition focuses squarely on the biggest dance and club hits from 2007 to 2008—an era that bridged the raw energy of Electro House with the tail end of the millennium’s peak clubbing scene.
If you were anywhere near a dancefloor during this time, chances are you’ll recognize most—if not all—of the tracks included here. Each one dominated the Billboard Dance Club Songs chart and captured the diverse pulse of the scene. From euphoric anthems to deep, soulful grooves, this was a period where musical experimentation met mainstream success.
A Deep Cut That Still Resonates
One of the undeniable standouts in this set is The Cure & The Cause by Fish Go Deep featuring Tracey K. While the original release had multiple remixes, it was DJ Meme’s version that truly left its mark. Known for channeling the Salsoul era with real string sections and deep, disco-rooted energy, Meme’s remix paid tribute to the late ‘70s underground—offering something completely unique in a sea of Electro House and Big Room soundscapes. Its lush arrangement made it a refreshing outlier, a reminder of the artistry that once dominated dance floors way back in the day.
Extended Mixes That Kept Us Moving
Another thing that sets this era apart? The length of these tracks. Seriously—they were long. We’re talking 8 to 10-minute versions that DJs could ride for ages, keeping the energy high and the transitions smooth. The early Electro House movement embraced this approach, making sure partygoers stayed glued to the dancefloor for extended stretches.
While we aimed to preserve the integrity of the originals, we also made a few light edits for the sake of flow. For example, The Cure & The Cause originally clocked in at a full 10 minutes. A more accessible 6+ minute edit was released later, and that’s the version featured in this volume.
How Streaming Changed the Club Mix
As streaming platforms took off in the late 2000s, track lengths shrank. The push for more plays led to songs being chopped down to under three minutes—great for radio-style streaming, but awful for club DJs. This unfortunate trend carried over to remix culture. While we’ve bounced back a bit, with the average remix now hovering around five minutes, it’s still not quite where it used to be.
The reality is, shorter edits limit a DJ’s flexibility. When you’re forced to use effects or create unnatural transitions just to make a mix work, it can pull the listener out of the experience. Ideally, we’d find a sweet spot around seven minutes—long enough to build momentum, but short enough to stay focused on the music. Whether we’ll ever return to that balance remains to be seen.
What's Coming Next
We hope you’ve been enjoying these nostalgic trips back to clubland. Next up, we’ll be jumping into the 2009–2010 era in Volume 6, which should be dropping sometime in May. But before that, it’s almost time for our annual Spring Break Edition—you know, that over-the-top celebration of the hottest new Dance Club Songs leading into summer. Expect that one to drop in the next couple of weeks.
Until the next time...ENJOY!
I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who donated toward my medical expenses. I didn’t post about my situation expecting anything—just wanted to share what I was going through. That said, your generosity means the world to me and will go a long way in easing the burden of ongoing medical debt. I’m truly grateful for each and every one of you.

BackSpin: Electro House Classics & Other Millennial Dance Club Hits! [2007 — 2008] Volume 4

Party Favorz is back with another round of our BackSpin series, this time moving into the transformative era of 2007 to 2008—an especially meaningful period as it marks the birth of this very podcast. These were the years that saw dance music shifting dramatically, with the big room circuit style starting to cool off just as Electro House began rising from the underground and taking over mainstream dance floors.
But the evolution wasn’t one-dimensional.
This era ushered in a diverse set of trends that helped shape the sound of modern dance. It was the rise of remix royalty like Freemasons, Moto Blanco, and Cahill. Each brought their own distinct flair to the genre. Freemasons blended traditional House with Electro influences, Moto Blanco leaned deep into shimmering Disco House, and Cahill straddled both worlds with a clean, pop-forward edge. Their remixes were everywhere—especially for big-name artists. Back then, the bigger the artist, the more labels were willing to shell out for high-profile remixers. That is, until budgets began shrinking and labels stopped cutting those massive checks.
Fast-forward 15 years, and platforms like SoundCloud changed the game again. Suddenly, bootleg remixes became marketing tools, not just club exclusives. DJs had to hustle to make a name for themselves—often remixing tracks for free in the hopes of being discovered or landing a record deal.
A Remix Renaissance
During this same stretch, a powerhouse of remixers emerged and defined the dancefloor. Bimbo Jones, Seamus Haji, Soul Seekerz, Wideboys, Dave Audé, Jody den Broeder, and a revitalized StoneBridge (whose roots go back to the ’90s) were dropping fire left and right.
Meanwhile, some of the biggest names from the big room era still held their ground. Chris Cox (post-Thunderpuss), Ralphi Rosario, Tony Moran, Johnny Vicious, and DJ Escape kept delivering heavy, floor-shaking anthems that balanced out the sleeker, more polished productions coming from the Electro and Disco House scenes. This blend of sounds made for one of the most diverse periods in dance music—something we haven’t quite seen repeated since.
A Pop Diva Takeover
The pop landscape at the time wasn’t sitting quietly either. Britney Spears was staging a massive comeback, Beyoncé and Rihanna were dominating charts globally, and Robyn was redefining what electro-pop could be. Their tracks became essential remix material and ruled dance floors from coast to coast. We've packed both volumes of this series with heavy doses of these queens because, frankly, they owned this era.
Now, if you’re looking for a broader reflection of each year's biggest dance anthems, don't miss our Top Dance Songs of the Year series. Those sets provide a deeper look into the biggest hits and underground standouts from each year.
A Personal Evolution
For me, this wasn’t just a turning point for music—it was a turning point for Party Favorz itself.
This was the moment we shifted from burning and distributing CDs in clubs and at festivals to launching the podcast. Suddenly, the reach was global, and the feedback was immediate. But beyond the growth in listenership, the music itself opened my ears—and my mind—to styles I hadn’t previously embraced. Until then, I had been locked into the big room circuit sound. But what was coming out during this time was just too good to ignore.
That realization led directly to the creation of the Funky House and Peak Hour series. There was simply too much top-tier music that didn’t fit the traditional mold, and it needed a platform. The podcast became the place to house it all. It allowed me to expand the universe of Party Favorz and bring listeners along for the ride.
This One's for the Party People!
If you lived through this period—or just want to experience the magic for the first time—these sets are dedicated to you. This was an electric, creative time when boundaries were pushed and styles blended in fresh, exciting ways.
Volume 5 drops tomorrow. You won’t want to miss it.
Until the next time...ENJOY!

Funky House Sessions: Winter 2025

WARNING! This post contains graphic imagery that may not be suitable for all audiences.
Party Favorz is dropping the next installment of Funky House Sessions a day early to clear my schedule for the coming week. This set was completed in one take, and after listening to it sporadically over the past week, I can honestly say it’s flawless. Even the tricky transitions were figured out on the fly and seamlessly flowed from one track to the next.
This set leans heavily on the Disco House side, so put on your dancing shoes because it’s time to get down!
As I mentioned in my last post, I went to Urgent Care—only to be turned away because my situation required a doctor, and all they had was a single PA (Physician Assistant) on staff. So, I went to the ER the next day, fully expecting to wait a couple of hours.
I have two OxyContin pills prescribed so I can lay still without pain for the two-hour MRIs my doctor ordered. Why? Because I need an official diagnosis to correct the wrong diagnosis that every major hospital has run with since 1996. It took eight months just to get in for that initial visit, then another 30 days for the doctor to perform some tests. After that, I was supposed to have MRIs with and without contrast of my lumbar and brain so the neurologist can provide me with an official diagnosis.
Enter Humana, my insurer. They approved, rescinded, re-approved, and rescinded again—dragging this process out for months, ultimately forcing me to drop them for a new insurer in 2025. And now? I can’t even get in to see the neurologist until the end of May. ARE. YOU. FUCKING. KIDDING. ME?
Meanwhile, I now have an unrelated infection that was initially thought to be staph. It has left a hole larger than a quarter in my leg, surrounded by a growing infection that the wound specialist no longer believes is staph but a bacterial infection.

So, back to the ER I went, where I sat for five hours, watching patients who arrived after me get treated and discharged—until the entire waiting room had turned over three times. When I asked about the delay, I was told they had no doctors on staff—only Nurse Practitioners (NPs) and Physician Assistants (PAs). My condition required an actual doctor.
At that point, I ripped the port-a-cath out of my arm, threw it in the trash, and walked out. I did my best to keep my cool—I wasn’t about to be that guy (you know, Kevin), but this was absolutely ridiculous.
Mind you, four years ago, I sat in this same ER for 24 hours with a burst appendix while their sole doctor performed elective surgeries. In the meantime, they pumped me full of pain meds and ran unnecessary tests just to run up the insurance bill. Don’t even get me started.
How the fuck do you run an emergency room without a single doctor on staff?
I checked their website, and it claimed wait times were under two hours. Bullshit. Meanwhile, we have two major hospital chains in this area, so I looked up Piedmont’s ERs. They publicly list their current wait times, which averaged 20 minutes, with some locations reaching an hour—way more reasonable and what I had come to expect living in Atlanta.
So, Rick and I are heading down to one of their satellite campuses early tomorrow—which brings me back to why this Funky House Sessions set is dropping early.
I fully expect to be hospitalized tomorrow. For how long? No idea. So, I’m getting this set out now to avoid interrupting the release schedule. That said, I wouldn’t expect anything new next week. Once I’m back in the saddle, I’ll start working on some BackSpins covering the first ten years of the Millennium.
Until the next time…ENJOY!

Artic Energy: Circuit Anthems As Cold As Ice, HOT As Fire! — Winter Edition 2025

Party Favorz is back with our first circuit set of the year, and this one is FIRE! Initially, I planned to drop 30% of the tracks I had compiled for this set, but as I listened further, every track turned out to be a keeper. I’ll let the set speak for itself.
I’ve been in significant pain lately because of an issue with my leg. I’m heading to Urgent Care shortly for another opinion since it’s not healing. In fact, it has worsened. None of the treatments the wound specialist recommended have worked, and the skin is now peeling off in roughly a 5-inch diameter around the wound. It’s purple and very raw. I would post a picture, but it would be more graphic than anything we’ve ever shared on this website, so I’ll keep it to myself.
I’ve already compiled the track list for the next Funky House set, so expect something new next week no matter what. However, I might take the following week off. I’ll have to see how everything goes.
For now, check out this epic set that will electrify your senses. Until the next time...ENJOY!

Club Fusion Winter 2025: Winter's HOTTEST Dance Club Songs [Updated]

Party Favorz is officially BACK! In addition to all the insurance manipulation and MRI issues I was having, I developed a drug-resistant staph infection on my shin, which grew into a massive boil that has now left a hole the size of the Grand Canyon on my leg. This is some seriously messed-up shit that's forced me to see a wound specialist to get this thing to heal. This is a 5-alarm pain I'm dealing with so bare with me while I work through this. To add insult to injury, I've now had to reschedule my follow-up diagnosis until May 28th because my neurologist is in high demand. I just can't catch a break.
But enough about me. Club Fusion Winter 2025 showcases a new direction dance club music is moving in. Back in the mid-millennium, we called it Progressive House, but today, it’s labeled everything but—even though this dark, moody template with heavy synths is prevalent in just about every genre.
Arbat and Vintage Culture are primed to take over this sound because they’ve been working in this space for some time. That’s not to say there aren’t some shiny, happy spots in this set, but the overall mood is set from the start with Aaron Hibell & Alex Wann's "Set Me Free." There’s also an excellent Camelphat remix of this track out now, so be sure to watch out for that.
We have several throwbacks in this set that have been updated to fit into today’s scene. I’m not sure if my Millennial BackSpin series has anything to do with it, but there sure are a lot of great songs from the first three volumes that have been plucked for a total remake (with new vocals) or just flat-out reworked originals.
Ru Da Silva’s classic Touch Me gets another overhaul by Massano, Th;En, and Carlo Whale.
Morgan Seatree reworks the Florence + The Machine classic Say My Name after last year’s excellent Afro House version.
The Sound of Violence by Cassius is no stranger to reworks, and BLR and Matt Sassari update the original, making it even darker.
Freejack tackles The Killers’ Somebody Told Me.
Cody Schneida reworks the Kaskade & Deadmau5 classic Move For Me.
Rogerson updates Fergie’s hit Fergalicious.
Never content to hand over their work to someone else, Deep Dish update their #1 classic Say Hello with two different, darker remixes that fit perfectly into today’s dance floors.
Meanwhile, John Summit does not disappoint, diversifying his sound with his latest "Palm of My Hands" featuring Venbee, with Odd Mob handling remix duties, as well as "Focus" with Cloves. But as excited as we are for new music from John, the person to watch out for is Max Styler.
Max has already established himself in Techno, but with his latest three-song EP "Don’t Stop", all three tracks are featured here—because, yes, they’re that good. Keep an eye on this guy because, clearly, he came to play.
Another name to watch is Kastra. We picked up two of his bootleg remixes—Gracie Abrams’ That’s So True and the Lady Gaga smash Abracadabra. These flips transform the originals into the darker Progressive House sound that dominates this set while keeping the songs’ integrity and danceability intact. He may be unknown now, but I don’t expect that to last long. Be sure to follow him on his SoundCloud page—you won't be disappointed.
Don’t be fooled by what I just wrote—Club Fusion Winter 2025 is jam-packed with all the latest club dance tracks filling floors right now, and there’s a lot to love here. I’m sorry this took a week longer to get out to you, folks, but Lady Gaga was the hold-up—and as one of our Diva Hall of Fame goddesses, she’s well within her right.
Until the next time...ENJOY!

* SXY by Hugel was originally intended for a future Peak Hour set and was removed; Act of God by Layton Giordani was accidentally duplicated and one was removed. I also took the liberty of cleaning up many of the transitions as I've maintained a hectic schedule, which will continue through March, I rushed to get this set out. But, when you hurry things along, you tend to make mistakes. They've now been corrected.

Top Dance Club Songs of the Year 2024 Volume III | The Year’s Biggest Bangers!

Wrapping Up 2024: The Final Chapter
Party Favorz is finally back with our third and final installment of the Top Dance Club Songs of 2024. These year-end lists are always a challenge to create because, as you work your way through, everything either clicks perfectly or it doesn’t. In this case, most of it did—though not without some hiccups.
Making the Mix Work
To make this final set cohesive, I swapped out a couple of remixes for their original versions and dropped one song entirely. Why? Because I didn’t like it when it was released and still don’t. It just didn’t work in the mix. Don’t worry—you won’t miss it. Trust me on this.
Overall, I think I’ve put together an excellent representation of the best dance club songs of 2024. You’d be hard-pressed to find a list this comprehensive anywhere else.
Ranking Process? Not This Time
I know I promised to discuss my process for ranking these songs, but honestly, I don’t have it in me right now. I’ve been in extreme pain all week from an infection on my shin, and the antibiotics the doctor prescribed aren’t working. With the 5-day treatment almost over, I’ll likely need to head to urgent care tomorrow if there’s no improvement.
No Blow Your Own Horn This Year
On top of that, I’ve spent so much time and energy pulling together these year-end sets that there simply isn’t enough bandwidth left for our annual Blow Your Own Horn series. I know many of you look forward to that tradition—where we bid one final “fuck off” to the year while welcoming the New Year with a bang. Its high-energy nature makes it a fan favorite, but I just can’t make it happen this time.
The Future of Party Favorz
I’ve also been wrestling with mixed feelings about continuing Party Favorz into another year. Right now, I’m leaning toward keeping it alive—especially since we’re expecting new music from Lady Gaga, Cher, and Madonna. And if Rihanna drops something? That would be EPIC.
If I do move forward, big changes are inevitable. The last two years saw a significant drop in donations, which didn’t even scratch the surface of my monthly expenses. If the podcast continues, it will have to rely on a Patreon model. I haven’t ironed out the details yet, but I’ve got some ideas brewing.
A New Chapter for the Website
Another looming expense is a new website theme. The theme I’ve used for the past 15 years has been a workhorse, but it’s no longer supported by WordPress and throws up quirky issues every time WordPress updates. A new theme will run me about $300 and require a complete redesign. While I’ve taught myself a fair bit of coding over the years, I’m no expert. Thankfully, tools like ChatGPT make it easier to generate CSS based on my instructions, which is a lifesaver.
That said, design is my thing, and I want to make sure everything is tested across multiple devices before launching. So don’t expect the new site to roll out until early February.
Wishing You a Safe New Year
As we close out the year, I hope everyone has a safe and welcoming New Year. Thank you for your continued support.
Until next time, ENJOY!

I'm aware that Madison Beer already appeared on Volume I. My bad, but I'm not fixing it.

Top Dance Club Songs of the Year 2024 Volume II | The Year’s Biggest Bangers!

Party Favorz is back with the second installment of the Top Dance Club Songs of 2024, highlighting the year’s most electrifying bangers! This volume features the tracks that defined dance floors worldwide, solidifying 2024 as an exceptional year for club music.
A Year of Genre Diversity
One of the standout elements of 2024’s dance music scene has been its diversity. While massive EDM anthems reminiscent of the late 2000s and early 2010s still resonate with partygoers, genres like Tech House, Future House, Bass House, Nu Disco, Melodic House, Drum and Bass, and Afro House have firmly staked their claim.
While Afro House and Tech House may be nearing their saturation point in some circles, their influence remains strong. Although these genres may not fully penetrate mainstream clubs, they continue to offer breakout hits that leave a lasting impression on dance music enthusiasts.
The Rise of Hyper-Infused Beats
Since 2023, a fascinating trend in house music has emerged—high-energy tracks with tempos ranging from 138 to 150 BPM. Volume II of the Top Dance Club Songs of 2024 compiles some of the best examples of this trend, including tracks like:
"I Like the Way You Kiss Me" by Artemis
"(When I'm With You) Free" by Calvin Harris and Ellie Goulding
"Thank You (Not So Bad)" by Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike
"Pedro" by Raffaella Carrà, Agatino Romero, and Jaxomy
These tracks span genres such as House, Techno, Trance, and Hard Dance, but all share the same blazing-fast BPM, making them seamlessly transitionable in any mix. This infusion of hyper-charged beats adds to the eclectic energy of this year’s club scene.
The Rich Tapestry of Dance Music
Dance music in 2024 is nothing short of a vibrant tapestry, woven from mainstream hits and underground gems. While this series captures the year’s biggest anthems, it’s important to recognize the unsung heroes—the alternative club tracks heard in smaller venues or accidentally tripped on through Spotify and Apple Music’s algorithmic recommendations.
For those eager to explore even deeper, the critic’s picks from platforms like Beatport and other reputable online dance music magazines offer a treasure trove of electronic masterpieces that might not make it to mainstream playlists but are just as compelling.
Behind the Scenes of Party Favorz
The journey to create this year-end series has been a labor of love. The curation process alone took over two weeks, involving meticulous selection, followed by rounds of editing and remixing. It’s always a challenge to balance personal favorites with tracks that have widespread appeal, but our goal is to reflect the collective pulse of dance floors everywhere.
This year, the song selection process saw a few changes, and we’re already planning further refinements for 2025 to streamline the workflow. Stay tuned for more insights into that evolution in our final set, which drops this weekend!
The hard work, sleepless nights, and countless hours spent mixing are all worth it when we see the impact these sets have on dance music lovers.
Until the next time…ENJOY!

Top Dance Club Songs of the Year Volume I | The Year's Biggest Bangers! [Expanded]

Welcome to the 2024 Top Dance Club Songs of the Year Edition!
This annual wrap-up celebrates the biggest songs in dance and club music across all genres, showcasing the tracks that defined the dance floor in 2024. Among the highlights, the newest trend to capture the scene—Afro House—has sparked discussion. However, let’s set the record straight: Afro House is neither new nor always true to its roots. While one standout track in this year’s lineup genuinely fits the genre, much of what is labeled Afro House has been stripped of its African origins, replaced with slowed-down beats (120 BPM) and polished for mainstream appeal.
This critique isn’t about quality—many of these tracks are excellent—but longtime House aficionados will recognize the percussive elements as familiar territory. Like Nu Disco before it, Afro House is having its moment. Yet with so many producers relying on the same loops and software, the genre risks burnout before it can truly solidify. Credit is due to Rivo, whose rework of Disclosure’s “You and Me” ignited the trend earlier this year. This stellar remix skyrocketed to become one of the biggest electronic tracks of 2024.
John Summit: A Living Legend
John Summit continued his meteoric rise this year with the much-hyped “Shiver.” The track showcases his ability to explore new genres while maintaining his signature dark, ethereal, and moody style. At this point, Summit is reaching Avicii-level stardom, but his continued output of bangers suggests he’s handling the pressure with grace. Here’s hoping he finds the balance between delivering hits and taking time for himself.
PAWSA: From Underground to Mainstream
One of the year's most unexpected breakthroughs was the massive success of PAWSA. Though the London-based DJ has been active since 2014, 2024 was his breakout year. With “Too Cool to Be Careless” and “That Phone Track” dominating the Beatport Top 100 for months, PAWSA’s stripped-down House style became a dancefloor staple. Closing the year with a rework of Adventures of Stevie V’s 1990 classic “Dirty Cash,” he solidified his position at the forefront of modern House music.
Viral Revival: Sophie Ellis-Bextor and Mason vs. Princess Superstar
Two early-2000s tracks found new life in 2024 thanks to their inclusion in the streaming hit Saltburn. Sophie Ellis-Bextor’s “Murder on the Dance Floor” and Mason vs. Princess Superstar’s “Perfect (Exceeder)” went viral on TikTok, sparking interest from a new generation of fans. Ellis-Bextor’s 2001 hit and the 2007 mashup both surged in popularity, proving the timelessness of their dance-floor appeal.
Pop Meets Dance: Sabrina Carpenter’s Moment
The trend of pop stars invading the dancefloor continued this year, led by Sabrina Carpenter’s “Espresso.” A surprise summer earworm, it catapulted Carpenter into the spotlight after years of middling success. While fans clamored for official remixes, her label opted out, leaving bootleg remixes to fill the gap. Though remixing “Espresso” proved challenging, a handful of fan-made versions stood out, keeping the song buzzing in clubs and online.
Chappell Roan: A Rising Diva
Newcomer Chappell Roan broke through in 2024 with tracks from her 2023 debut album, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess. After a slow climb, the infectious “Good Luck, Babe” reached the Top 10, and tracks like “Pink Pony Club,” “Super Graphic Ultra Modern Girl,” and “Hot to Go!” became unofficial dance-floor anthems. Roan’s growing gay following has led to countless remixes, cementing her status as a rising diva. Her label would do well to embrace this remix culture—it’s what the fans want.
Charli XCX and Billie Eilish: A Dynamic Duo
Charli XCX returned with “Brat,” a chaotic yet compelling album that took time to resonate. Tracks like “360” and “The Von Dutch” eventually found their groove, adding depth to the year’s dance scene. Charli’s duet with Billie Eilish, “Guess,” became an instant queer anthem. Eilish also had a stellar year, with “Lunch” and “Birds of a Feather” receiving fan-made remixes that elevated their club potential. Together, these artists blurred genre lines while owning their unique spaces in pop and dance music.
Looking Ahead: More to Come
This year in dance music has been so eventful that our wrap-up will span three, possibly four, volumes. We’ve adopted a new methodology for compiling the Top Dance Club Songs, which has expanded the list far beyond expectations. Stay tuned for the next volume dropping Monday, where we’ll dive deeper into 2024’s defining tracks and trends.
Until the next time...ENJOY!

"Lioness" by Swedish House Mafia was originally intended as the opening track for Volume II but didn't mesh well with anything that came after. So, I moved it back to its obvious placement in the mix on Volume I based on key.

Holiday Edition 2024: Tribal Beats To Sleigh Your Holidays [Updated]

Party Favorz is back with our annual Holiday Edition for 2024, featuring HOT Santas and tribal beats guaranteed to sleigh the season! 🎅🔥
This year, I made it a point to weave in some Tea Dance-style tracks to break up the monotony of the tribal-heavy set. Let’s be honest, a lot of what's been coming out in this space lately is straight-up uninspired — poor mastering, weak vocals, and a glaring lack of creativity compared to the pioneers of the genre. It's like everyone's copy-pasting the same blueprint, trying to force a square peg into a round hole.
If you're going to sell your work on Bandcamp for $5 to $6 a pop, step up your game. Stop churning out the same recycled formula. That said, I’ve been leaning more toward Henriq Moraes, who, at the very least, brings solid production values and avoids that annoying high-pitched sound you hear too often these days. His remixes are fresh, varied, and don't feel like the same song on repeat. There are a few other producers I keep my eye on, but they’re not as prolific. Even so, Henriq isn't pumping out new tracks every week, which is how it should be if you want quality.
Mor Avrahami continues to bring the heat with his remixes, as does Dirty Disco. These guys know how to keep it fresh and exciting. But let’s not forget the legends still out there touring, remixing, and schooling the next generation. I’m talking about the likes of Danny Verde, Cajjmere Wray, Nick Harvey, and other masters of the craft. Their experience shows in the style, hooks, and embellishments they add to their remixes. These touches are what separate a "meh" track from one that slays.
Standout Moments & Must-Listen Tracks
Speaking of Danny Verde and Tom Stephan — these two veteran producers joined forces to reimagine Lady Gaga's "Disease," and the result is nothing short of masterful. While there’s no shortage of mediocre (and outright bad) remixes of this track, their darker, moodier approach cuts through the noise. The remix leans into a shadowy, underground vibe, amplifying the song's raw intensity. The undeniable hook pulls you in from the jump and refuses to let go, making their version a clear standout in a sea of forgettable attempts.

On a related note, Nick Harvey recently dropped an entire EP of remixes for "Stand Up" by Suzanne Palmer. This one caught me off guard — not only for the quality but for the names attached. Two standouts are the mixes from Cajjmere Wray and the elusive Eddie Baez. Yes, that Eddie Baez. I didn't even know he was still active in the scene! Both versions are stellar, but I had to roll with Eddie's for nostalgia's sake. It’s good to hear him back in the game, and if this is a sign of things to come, I’m all in.
Another blast from the past comes from the production team 7th Heaven, who dropped Mirrorball Anthems featuring camp and queer classics sung by some of the biggest divas of the past 50 years. If you need a dose of Hi-NRG fun, I’ve included their rework of the Sylvester classic "Do Ya Wanna Funk" featuring the powerhouse vocals of Katherine Ellis, plus their update of "How Long" by Linda Clifford. This is just a taste of what’s on the full release, and if you’re a fan of high-octane disco-fueled bangers, you need to check it out.
Holiday Hits That Sleigh!
A huge shoutout goes to Dirty Disco, who delivered what may be the definitive remix of "DJ Play a Christmas Song" by Cher and Kelly Clarkson. Last year, Dirty Disco skipped this one in favor of another track from Cher’s Christmas album, but this time, with Kelly in the mix, the energy is undeniable. The remix has that classic 7th Heaven/Almighty feel — pure festive fun that instantly puts you in a holiday mood.

Other standouts worth adding to your playlist:
Mor Avrahami — just about anything he touches lately.
Alex Ramos remix of "Touch Me" by Eliad Cohen and Riki Ben Ari — pure fire.
Henriq Moraes remix of "APT." by ROSÉ and Bruno Mars — yes, it's as good as it sounds.
Jean Milla’s bootleg of "Where Have You Been" by Rihanna — a welcome rework of a classic.
Junior Senna’s remix of "I Feel Love" by Robbie Carrigan — a fresh spin on a timeless hit.
Weehs Michelini’s remix of "Guess" by Charli XCX and Billie Eilish — a smooth blend of two distinct styles.
Brady Prince remix of "Can’t Get Enough" by Soulsearcher — a funked-up groove that gets under your skin.
Shlomi Mor remix of "Say You Love Me" by Winnie Pootz — an update to the Hannah Jones 90's classic "You Only Have To Say You Love Me".
Honorable mention goes to "F^ck You On a Train To Paris" by Eran Tal. I can't even describe this one — you just have to hear it for yourself.
Final Thoughts
This year’s Holiday Edition 2024 is a well-rounded set designed to keep you engaged from start to finish. It gives you what you want without falling into that repetitive, predictable trap that too many sets fall into these days. I’m not here to bore you — I’m here to light your dancefloor on fire.
It’s been cold as hell here in Georgia, but there’s a brief warm-up this weekend before we’re back to bone-chilling temps. If it’s freezing where you’re at, crank up Holiday Edition 2024 — I promise it’ll heat you up!
Until next time... ENJOY! 🎉🎧🎶

JINGLE ELECTRIC 2024: The Biggest Dance Club Songs of the Season!

Since our last Club Fusion set, "Don't Stop the Music," back in early October, the music scene has been underwhelming. The process of curating this final entry in the series has been anything but smooth—starting and stopping more times than I’d like to admit. Normally, I prefer to have everything in place and finish a set in one go, but the lack of standout releases made this a real challenge.
That’s not to say there aren’t any gems in this mix. Quite the opposite—through persistence and digging deep across DJ services, Beatport, and even Spotify, I uncovered tracks that truly move me. And if they move me, I know they’ll bring my followers to the dancefloor. Party Favorz doesn’t stop until the job is done.
This set features several updated throwbacks, many of which are making waves on DJ charts, while others may have flown under the radar—until now. As always, Party Favorz is here to bring the best to light. Highlights include:
Diplo’s rework of Gala’s ’90s Eurodance anthem "Freed From Desire."
David Timothy’s fresh take on Billie Ray Martin’s "Your Loving Arms."
Tommy MC’s reimagining of Jody Watley’s ’80s classic "Don’t You Want Me."
Stuart Ojelay’s heavenly spin on Danny Tenaglia’s "Music Is the Answer."
Stone Van Brooken’s faithful update of Faithless’ "Insomnia."
Block & Crown’s transformation of The Fugees’ "Ready or Not" into a House anthem.
TLC’s celebratory House remix of their hit "Creep" for CrazySexyCool’s 30th anniversary.
Cosmic Dawn’s Afro House remix of Everything But the Girl’s "Missing."
Most of these reworks remain true to the original while modernizing them for today’s dancefloors. Exceptions like TLC’s "Creep" lean heavily into reinvention, but it works beautifully.
The trend of revamping classics continues with notable remakes, such as:
Ava Max’s rendition of "Forever Young."
Ku De Ta’s "Dance I Said," sampling Salt-N-Pepa’s "Push It."
Alesso & John Alto’s update of Yes’ "Owner of a Lonely Heart."
Matt Sassari & Hugel’s faithful revival of Sonique’s "It Feels So Good," featuring a new vocalist.
Jax Jones, Azteck, and Norma Jean Martine’s fresh take on the Rihanna riff from Eminem’s "Love the Way You Lie."
It seems the trend of revamping tracks from yesteryear—be it from parents’ record collections or early CD libraries—is here to stay. When done right, these reworks breathe new life into the dancefloor.
Clocking in at just over three hours, this set blends fresh, new releases with timeless reworks, making it a strong contender for your end-of-year holiday parties. And the fun doesn’t stop here—our Top Dance Songs of the Year set drops in a few weeks, followed by our legendary New Year’s Eve blowout, "Blow Your Own Horn." But first, we’ll be serving up our Holiday Edition for the circuit boys to round out the season.
December is jam-packed, so stay tuned for all our releases! Until the next time...ENJOY!
