Labor Day has arrived, which means it’s time for one last blowout before we pack up Love Island, say goodbye to the beautiful women and men, and give summer 2026 one final sun-soaked kiss-off. Beach House 2026 Volume 3 is built for that final long weekend by the pool, on the patio, or wherever the drinks are cold and the speakers are loud.
One Last Blast of House Music for Summer 2026
For roughly the first 70% of the set, we lean into the heavier side of the House Music we prefer—bigger grooves, tougher beats, and plenty of energy to keep the party moving. As the sun starts going down, the mix gradually eases off the throttle, settling into a smoother, more soothing stretch of House that feels less like the party ending and more like summer taking its final bow.
Going RAW for the Final Beach House of 2026
This set is a little looser than our usual efforts—what I tend to call RAW. With time working against me, I dumped more than 100 songs into my software and started dropping tracks in on the fly, deleting anything that didn’t work as I went. There wasn’t a lot of time to overthink transitions or second-guess the running order. The goal was simply to keep moving, keep trimming, and get the strongest set possible out the door.
As it turns out, the music made that approach surprisingly easy. Most of these tracks already came with solid intros and outros, so they lent themselves naturally to a more open, live-feeling style of mixing. If this set sounds a little less polished and a little more spontaneous, that’s because it is. Frankly, I think this looser approach suits our Funky House series really well and may be something we use more often going forward. Even after dumping a ton of songs to keep things as tight as possible, Volume 3 still clocks in at more than two hours.
Suit Up for Summer’s Last Call
So put on your sexiest swimsuits, fire up the grill, DIVE IN THE POOL, and get ready to say your goodbyes while sweating it out to some of the fiercest Funky House Music the DJ gods are serving up right now. Volume 3 closes out Beach House for 2026 with a monster set built to keep the music going long after your stamina gives out.
Until the next time...ENJOY!
Party Favorz Is Coming to YouTube
Party Favorz has finally given in and will be opening up our YouTube page @PartyFavorzPodcast sometime tomorrow. Initially, we’ll feature select mixes from Club Fusion, Circuit & Anthems, Funky House, Gay Pride Anthems and the Diva Hall of Fame, with more categories being added over time.
Because YouTube blocks or restricts certain copyrighted songs, some mixes on the channel may differ slightly from the original versions available here. In those cases, the complete episodes remain available on PartyFavorz.com.
With more than 1,200 episodes in our catalog, uploading everything simply isn’t practical—it’s a massive undertaking. PartyFavorz.com will remain the definitive place to listen to and download all of your favorite episodes, while YouTube will serve as another way to discover and enjoy select Party Favorz mixes.

Dolly Parton is probably one of the least likely artists you'd expect to have her music remixed for the dancefloor. But you know us gays and our divas. Where there's a will, there's a way—and we always find a way.
As such, this Diva Dance Tribute reaches into virtually every corner of dance music to reinterpret Dolly's remarkable catalog. We've got House Music, Eurodance, Country Dance, Circuit, Disco, Future House and even Dubstep. The sheer variety speaks volumes about the affinity so many different people in our community have for Ms. Parton. And rightfully so.
Finding Dolly on the Dancefloor
Party Favorz spent the better part of a week pouring through everything the internet had to offer while digging deep into our own extensive collection of Dolly Parton remixes. There were plenty of surprises along the way.
There were also more versions of "Jolene" and "Peace Train" than we knew what to do with. Narrowing those down to just a couple of versions worthy of representing this tribute was surprisingly difficult. That's largely because you can hear the love and devotion that went into many of these unofficial remixes.
These weren't people randomly grabbing a famous vocal and throwing a beat underneath it. They were fans paying tribute to a woman who never expected anything from us in return.
Ultimately, we think we've done about as well as anyone could in pulling together the different sides of Dolly for the dancefloor.
We even treated classics like "Baby I'm Burnin'" with tender care. The original already had disco running through its veins, but recordings from that era don't always have the weight and punch we've come to expect from modern dance music. We carefully remastered it to today's standards while preserving everything that made the original work in the first place. The goal wasn't to reinvent Dolly. It was to give the song the sound it always deserved.
What surprised me most was how easily this entire mix fell into place. Considering the number of genres represented here, it shouldn't work nearly as well as it does. Sure, there are a few necessary crossfades, but for the most part, these wildly different interpretations mix together beautifully.
Maybe that shouldn't be surprising. Dolly is the common thread holding everything together.
More Than a Country Music Legend
Dolly Parton wasn't just a country music legend and Grammy winner. She was a philanthropist who gave an extraordinary amount of herself and her fortune to causes she genuinely believed in. Few public figures have ever matched the breadth of her generosity—or even attempted to.
She grew up with virtually nothing and became one of America's most celebrated entertainers, yet she never seemed to forget where she came from. More importantly, she never forgot about people who weren't fortunate enough to follow the same path.
Dolly spent her life giving back to her community and to humanity at large. Whether through literacy programs, education, disaster relief, medical research or countless other causes, her generosity wasn't something she merely talked about. She put her own money, time and reputation behind the things she believed in.
There was something remarkable about the way Dolly embraced the "others" among us—the people society too often ignores, judges or casts aside—with seemingly endless compassion.
For the LGBTQ community, that mattered.
Dolly Parton Was Always in Our Corner
Dolly was one of the most steadfast celebrity supporters of gay people and, later, transgender people that our community could have asked for. She stood by us even when doing so wasn't necessarily the easiest position for someone working in country music and coming from her deeply religious Southern background.
Yet somehow, Dolly was the one person her critics had difficulty attacking.
That's because she never came across as calculating or performative. She wasn't trying to score political points or sell us something. Everything she did appeared to come from her heart, and we never had reason to question her loyalty because she was remarkably genuine and sincere about the causes and people she embraced.
She didn't lecture people about compassion. She practiced it.
That's an important distinction.
Dolly seemed to understand something that has become increasingly rare: you don't have to understand every aspect of someone else's life to recognize their humanity. You don't have to share their experiences to believe they deserve dignity, kindness and respect.
For generations of gay people who grew up being told there was something wrong with us, having someone like Dolly Parton say, in essence, I see you, I love you, and you're welcome here carried more weight than she probably ever realized.
Our Turn to Give Something Back
That's ultimately what this Diva Dance Tribute is about.
It's easy to call something a tribute, string together a collection of hits and move on to the next project. This one feels different. There's a genuine emotional connection behind many of these remixes, just as there's one behind this mix.
Dolly never asked the LGBTQ community for anything. She simply gave us her support.
So this is our small way of returning some of that love.
She was one of a kind, embodying an American spirit rooted in empathy. This gay man—one of millions who found comfort in knowing Dolly Parton was firmly in our corner—can never repay what she gave us.
But Party Favorz can do what we've always done when honoring the women who provided the soundtrack to our lives: turn up the volume, fill the dancefloor and celebrate the music.
For Dolly.
Until the next time...ENJOY!
Update: Expanded Mix

After playing around with some new toys I picked up earlier this summer, I decided to rearrange the decks of the Titanic. All of the original songs remain intact; I simply changed the running order and added a few instrumentals at the beginning and end of select tracks for smoother transitions. “Downtown” was removed but is still available on Ms. Parton’s original Diva Hall of Fame entry. The Love To Infinity remix of “9 To 5” was replaced with a higher-fidelity version, with about two minutes trimmed for better flow.
I also dropped in Yann Sun’s new remix of “Here You Come Again.” It almost hits the mark, though the instrumental really needed to change keys along with Dolly’s vocals once the arrangement picks up. Still, it works well as a bridge between songs. I’d also completely forgotten about a Digital Visions edit buried on an old backup drive that I had to dig out and reconnect to my computer. DJ Freddy had moved beyond disco into pop edits before his passing, so I’m grateful he’s still kickin’ it with the gods—and remains the gift that keeps on giving.

We’re in the final weeks of summer, but that doesn’t mean Party Favorz is taking a vacation. When you don’t see us posting for a week, it usually means we’re buried in the studio working on what comes next. This month, we’re dropping some serious bombs, starting with Summer Sweat 2026 Volume 2 and another round of the hottest dance club music burning up the season.
Picking up where we left off in July, the dancefloor has only gotten hotter. Summer Sweat 2026 Volume 2 starts in cool mode with some ultra-hot Hip-Hop & R&B House from it’s murph and Khalid, Drake, and Cloonee & Prospa. From there, the temperature steadily rises until all bets are off.
From Hip-Hop House to Peak Hour Heat
SIDEPIECE and HILLS keep things moving before we hit Gino Figliolini’s “Stomp,” a track that is completely flying under the radar when it shouldn’t be. It uses a familiar early-2000s riff that could be dropped into almost any decade and still pack a dancefloor.
There’s a long history of recycling these loops and turning them into something new. DJs would be wise not to sit this one out. “Stomp” is exactly the kind of record you want in your late-night arsenal when the floor is packed and everybody is ready to sweat.
It’s also time to name the dance song of the summer. There were several serious contenders, including ANOTR’s “Talk To Me” and Prospa & Cloonee’s “Free Your Mind,” but this year’s crown goes to “Movin To the Sun” by Hugel, Ultra Naté and Imael Angel.
This is the song that just keeps delivering. Paky Francavilla takes the original Afro House groove and flips it into an all-out peak-hour monster without losing the warmth that made the track work in the first place.
Retro Favorites Get a Modern House Makeover
Oliver Heldens, Kryder and The Young Punx take us back to the ’80s with their rework of “AEIOU,” reshaping the retro New Wave track into modern electronic House while keeping enough of its original personality intact.
Likewise, Franco Lippi revives the 1958 party classic “Tequila,” a song that seems destined to receive a fresh dancefloor makeover every few years. This latest version gives the familiar instrumental another shot of modern House production without taking away the fun.
Another standout is “Barthelona” from longtime Party Favorz favorite duo Sofi Tukker. Many of their recent releases haven’t received traditional extended mixes, but that doesn’t stop us from taking what they give us and making it work inside our sets.
As usual, Sofi Tukker move into their sun-soaked, quirky territory where everything feels loose, colorful and slightly unhinged. Their extended time in Brazil and Spain continues to influence their sound as they pull elements from earlier releases into something that feels fresh. We’re here for it.
“Barthelona” also provides a natural gateway into Porter Robinson’s return to the top of the dance charts with “WannaCry.” With its signature Porter Robinson sound, “WannaCry” lands as one of those records that simply feels right for summer.
Summer Sweat Heads Into the Late Night
From there, Summer Sweat 2026 Volume 2 moves firmly into late-night territory.
The Floorplan remix of Madonna’s “Love Sensation” pulls early-2000s-style riffs into the mix while transforming the original into a massive peak-hour track. It’s big, muscular and designed for a packed room.
Adam Tenet follows with his latest, “Beat Goes On,” which surprisingly samples The Whispers’ early-’80s disco classic of the same name. This isn’t some straightforward Nu Disco update. Instead, Tenet uses a light touch, referencing the original while building something that stands entirely on its own.
The result is a House track that could work in several different settings, but we especially like its deeper undertone. That mood transitions perfectly into an even deeper remake of the early-’90s House classic “Good Life.”
Twin Diplomacy then delivers a darker remix of Daft Punk’s massive “Get Lucky,” before Yotto reaches back into the ’80s with “Good Time (Clothes Off).” The track cheekily flips the message of “You Don’t Have To Take Your Clothes Off” into an invitation to do exactly the opposite, closing the set with a wink and a smile.
New Dance Club Music With One Foot in the Past
On paper, parts of this set might look like a throwback collection. It really isn’t.
The backbone of Summer Sweat 2026 Volume 2 comes from the new Tech House, Bass House, Afro House and contemporary dance club music currently riding high around the world. The classics and familiar samples simply provide connective tissue between generations of dance music.
That combination is what makes this set work.
Summer Sweat Volume 2 is a snapshot of what’s happening on dancefloors right now, while also grabbing records that many DJs may have overlooked. That’s why we spend so much time digging through new releases. The obvious hits are easy to find. It’s those hidden gems buried several pages deep that often turn out to be the tracks everyone asks about later.
Party Favorz will take another week off before returning with what used to be an annual release. We took an extended break from this particular series — much like one of our favorite diva — but the recovery period is over and the comeback is ready.
Until the next time...ENJOY!

Party Favorz is finally back with Summer Edition 2026 Volume 1, serving up the season’s hottest circuit anthems straight off the turntable—or at least most of them. Better late than never, boys.
I woke up around 2 a.m. this morning to finish a few things around the website before publishing the episode. Everything was going according to plan. The mix was finished, the artwork was ready, and for once, I was actually ahead of schedule. Naturally, that could not be allowed to continue.
Around 5 a.m., just as I was preparing to post Summer Edition 2026, I remembered that I had preordered a song from Beatport that was not scheduled for release until Friday. I figured it would be no big deal. I would download the track, slide it into the already perfect mix at the last minute, and carry on with my morning like the highly organized professional I occasionally pretend to be.
Then I opened the download section of Beatport and discovered five additional songs sitting there that I had purchased for last month’s Pride Edition but apparently never downloaded.
Seriously, what the hell?
I checked my music folders, searched every likely location, and confirmed that the tracks were nowhere to be found. Meanwhile, the new song I had originally gone looking for had not even been released yet. So there I was at five in the morning, staring at five orphaned Pride tracks and questioning every decision that had led me to that moment.
Because these songs were very much geared toward Gay Pride season, I briefly convinced myself that I could work them into Summer Edition 2026 Volume 1. After all, Pride does not end when June does, and a good circuit anthem should never be denied entry simply because it arrived late to the party.
Unfortunately, inserting five songs into an already completed set is not the same as tossing a few extra queens onto a parade float. One track can sometimes be squeezed in without causing too much drama. Five tracks can destroy the pacing, throw off the transitions, and send the entire mix spiraling into chaos faster than an open bar at a circuit party.
Once I started moving songs around, everything went off the rails. Transitions that had worked perfectly no longer fit. The energy rose and fell in all the wrong places. Suddenly, my polished mix was giving “committee meeting” instead of “peak-hour dance floor.”
Frustrated, I went back to bed and decided I would deal with it a few hours later. Surely, after some sleep and a fresh cup of coffee, I would find an elegant solution.
I did not.
Instead, I spent the entire morning dicking around with the tracklist, moving songs, deleting songs, restoring songs, and repeatedly proving that the original version had already been finished for a reason. For the first time in ages, I had been ready to publish everything on schedule, only to create a completely unnecessary headache for myself at the last minute.
Eventually, I gave up. I took the five tardy tracks and dropped them into a new folder labeled Fall Edition 2026. They may be excellent circuit anthems, but I am not entertaining these Mary-come-lately arrivals after they missed their original boarding call. They can sit in the waiting room until autumn and think about what they have done.
That brought me right back to the original finished mix—and honestly, that is where I should have stayed.
So here it is: Summer Edition 2026 Volume 1, featuring most of the hottest circuit anthems of the season for your listening pleasure. It is packed with soaring vocals, big-room drama, tribal rhythms, and enough hands-in-the-air energy to keep the boys moving long after the sun goes down.
The missing tracks will survive. The Fall Edition will benefit. Most importantly, this mix is finally out of my hands and headed straight to your speakers, because I do not have time for any more of this nonsense.
I will be back tomorrow with Volume 2.
Until the next time...ENJOY!

It’s 2:27 Sunday morning, I can’t sleep, and Party Favorz is dropping Beach House 2026 Volume 2. This fucker absolutely oozes with one of the hottest disco house mixes of the summer.
Originally, this year’s Beach House was built as one giant episode. However, after sitting on two amazing pieces of cover art, we decided the music deserved room to breathe. Splitting the release into two volumes made perfect sense.
As a result, Volume 2 picks up exactly where the first set began boiling over. Illyus & Barrientos kick things off with “Right Here,” wasting no time before hitting listeners square between the eyes.
Illyus & Barrientos Bring the Heat
Illyus & Barrientos usually operate in the high-octane reaches of house music that Party Favorz loves. Their productions have appeared across several of our genre releases, including Peak Hour and even Circuit & Anthems.
“Right Here” was a natural fit for Beach House 2026 Volume 2. It opens the floodgates before all hell breaks loose. The energy remains relentless through the first half of the episode before gradually cooling down midway through the mix.
That shift gives the set a natural arc. It starts hot, pushes the temperature into dangerous territory, and then eases listeners into the deeper and smoother side of funky house.
Mirko & Meex Flip “Love Sensation”
Mirko & Meex take us back to familiar territory with their own spin on Loleatta Holloway’s disco classic “Love Sensation.”
Instead of rebuilding the entire song, they zero in on Holloway’s “let me tell you” refrain and turn it into a disco house delight. Producers have sampled nearly every corner of this song over the years, yet Mirko & Meex found a section that still feels surprisingly fresh.
It always amazes us when a production team pulls one brief line from a familiar record and transforms it into something that stands on its own. That takes a sharp ear and a little imagination. In this case, the gamble pays off beautifully.
Discovering the Roots of a Cassius and Avicii Favorite
Next up is Gwen McCrae’s late-seventies soul classic “All This Love That I’m Givin’.”
The song found an entirely new audience in 1999 when French duo Cassius sampled it for “My Feeling for You.” That vocal has since been chopped, filtered, and rebuilt by Avicii and numerous other producers, allowing the hook to become a recurring dancefloor hit across several generations.
To be honest, we never knew the true origins of the sample until the Topaki Disco Team released this edit.
Party Favorz takes pride in having a musical database that stretches back decades. Still, every so often, a song exposes a gap in our knowledge. This was one of those moments. Discovering the original only makes its long life in dance music more impressive.
Dr Packer Revisits Jocelyn Brown
From there, we move quickly from one classic to another with a new update of Jocelyn Brown’s mid-eighties anthem “Somebody Else’s Guy.”
This time, the incomparable Dr Packer handles the remix duties. Rather than stripping away what made the original special, he stays faithful to its soulful foundation while giving it the polished low end and modern punch needed for today’s dancefloor.
Jocelyn Brown already has a well-earned place in the Party Favorz Diva Hall of Fame. Meanwhile, Dr Packer has built his reputation by breathing new life into disco, funk, and house records from the seventies, eighties, and nineties.w8
His catalog belongs in the same conversation as Purple Disco Machine. In fact, we are such big fans of his work that a Dr Packer Legacy tribute could very well happen in the near future.
“Trapped” and “This Time Baby” Return to the Floor
Deeper into the mix, Kolter delivers a pounding update of Colonel Abrams’ mid-eighties classic “Trapped.”
Rather than relying on the full original arrangement, Kolter samples the chorus and rebuilds it as an absolute house floor-burner. The hook remains instantly recognizable, but everything surrounding it has been engineered for maximum impact.
Avision follows with “This Time,” a modern flip of Jackie Moore’s 1979 disco classic “This Time Baby.”
Much like Kolter’s treatment of “Trapped,” Avision uses only a slice of the familiar chorus before turning the energy dial to ten. Both tracks show how producers can honor classic dance music without simply copying it. They retain the emotional payoff while creating something made for a new generation of clubgoers.
Sister Sledge and Angie Stone Close the Journey
Romain Villeroy later updates the Sister Sledge classic “Lost in Music,” one of the many enduring songs written by Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards.
His version, titled “No Turning Back,” remains faithful to the original while pulling its name from one of the song’s most memorable lines. It is a fitting tribute to a record that has never truly left the dancefloor.
Finally, Mozambo and Antdot close Beach House 2026 Volume 2 with an update of Angie Stone’s millennium-era R&B favorite “Wish I Didn’t Miss You.”
This song has always been a Party Favorz favorite. Placing it at the end allows the set to bring the temperature down without losing its soul. After an episode packed with fiery disco loops, pounding house grooves, and familiar hooks, the track delivers the perfect emotional landing.
Overall, followers of our Funky House series should find plenty to love here. Beach House 2026 Volume 2 is loaded with updated classics, filtered disco, soulful vocals, and enough summer heat to keep this episode on repeat for months.
Party Favorz has also finished assembling our next Summer Edition release for the circuit boys. The artwork alone should be a major crowd-pleaser, so stay tuned.

After falling asleep while writing this, I woke up, drank a mug of coffee, and scarfed down a Sausage McMuffin with Egg, a hash brown, and hot sauce to finally get this thing posted. I apologize for the delay.
Until the next time...ENJOY!
