The Ultimate Gay Anthems & PRIDE Classics — Volume 3

I'm excited to announce that The Ultimate Gay Anthems & PRIDE Classics Volume 3 is finally ready for its mass release. Just like its predecessors, this volume continues the tradition of delivering a fantastic blend of Hi NRG and Big Room classics.
To my surprise, I ended up compiling more tracks than I initially anticipated, which means this four-set series will now expand to five sets. Not to worry though, as I've already got volume 4 almost finalized. I just need to make a few last-minute changes to the track versions before dropping it tomorrow, speeding up the release process.
My goal is to have the final volume, as well as the highly anticipated two-volume set of The Ultimate Gay Anthems For A New Generation, out by the end of this month. This way, we can smoothly transition to regularly scheduled programming.
Speaking of which, it's still uncertain whether there will be an official 2022 Gay Pride set. For now, let's keep that as an open question mark.
In other news, you can now follow Party Favorz on Apple Podcasts. It's a convenient way to access the show as well as follow your favorite categories including Gay Anthems independent of the entire podcast.
I'll be back tomorrow with more updates. Until then... ENJOY!

The Ultimate Gay Anthems & PRIDE Classics — Volume 2

Party Favorz is back with volume 2 of the Ultimate Gay Anthems & Pride Classics, and let me tell you, the gay factor is off the charts!
To be honest, I had a vision for this 'ultimate' gay anthems series, but it wasn't until I started putting it together that I realized the challenges ahead. While I aim to stick with the original versions in most cases, I've found that opting for more current remixes of the same track helps maintain a tight pace and overall flow. You'll see this even more in volume 3, dropping later this week. Don't worry though, these updated remixes stay true to the essence of the originals.
Given the diverse styles featured in this compilation, I discovered that key mixing works for some songs, but it becomes necessary to change directions to avoid sticking with the same style for too long. This is where matching the percussive elements of each song comes into play, even when the styles differ. There's no software for that; it's a skill I learned a long time ago when I needed to shift gears or inject new energy into the mix.
I also found myself having to re-edit some overly ambitious remixes that had extended drops leading nowhere. It only happened twice in this set, but you can expect more in the upcoming volumes. However, I decided to leave Toni Braxton's 'Un-break My Heart' as is this time. It's the first Hex Hector remix that propelled him to stardom (even if he worked on it with Soul Solution), but it's clear he hadn't fully developed his drop technique yet. Editing this song is a breeze, but I thought it was time to let it play in all its full glory since it's not overly long.
If any of you have been following the Roe v Wade issue currently making waves in the United States, you'll know how passionate I get about political matters. Ever since the leaked draft opinion by SCOTUS surfaced before its official release in late June, I've been deeply concerned—and you should be too. The repercussions of what's to come affect everyone, not just women. I'll have more to say about it, likely at the end of all these Pride mixes, because I want to provide a clear and precise understanding of the fallout from this decision and emphasize how seriously we should all be taking it.
But for now, my main aim is for everyone to embrace their freedom, be proud of who they are, and find happiness. There's a lot of fantastic stuff heading your way.
Until next time...ENJOY!

The Ultimate Gay Anthems & PRIDE Classics — Volume 1

I'm thrilled to announce that Party Favorz is officially kicking off the 2022 Gay Pride season early with the first volume of our Ultimate Gay Anthems & PRIDE Classics series. We're super excited to share these amazing sets with you, as they are a massive update to the original Gay Pride Classics sets that were initially released in 2014. We called them "It Get's Better," "Love Sensation," "True Colors," "Together Again," and "We Are Family."
With this new series, we're primarily focusing on gay anthems released from the 90s through the first half of the millennium. We believe this era is the golden age of club music, with an abundance of incredible tracks that made it challenging to choose just one for inclusion. However, we also recognize the importance of newer anthems that have become staples in the Gay Pride arsenal. So fear not, we have a special release called "Ultimate Gay Anthems For A New Generation" coming later this month, which will feature the majority of those newer tracks.
Since the original release, there has been a flood of remixes for instantly recognizable classics. Some of the original versions didn't quite fit with the overall flow of this release, so we opted for the updated versions. It's important to note that this series is not the same as the original releases. Our main contributors, Barry Harris and Dirty Disco have done an exceptional job preserving and modernizing many of our favorite gay anthems.
Speaking of contributors, you'll find an impressive lineup of legends on this set. The likes of Hex Hector, Junior Vasquez, Ralphi Rosario, Freemasons, Victor Calderone, Wayne G, Almighty, and 7th Heaven have all lent their incredible talents to these tracks.
Over the years, we've received numerous requests for a "best of the Diva Hall of Fame" series. While we currently have no plans to create such a series (as it would be somewhat redundant), we encourage you to consider these final Gay Anthem releases as exactly that. The tracklist alone reads like a who's who of our favorite divas who've been inducted into the Diva Hall of Fame, including those one or two-hit wonders who never received the recognition they deserved.
You'll also notice something special in this initial tracklist – a fantastic remix of "Constant Craving" by one of our personal favorites, K.D. Lang. When we originally inducted her into the Diva Hall of Fame, the remix we included was not up to par. We apologize for that. However, the fabulous and legendary Tracy Young came to the rescue. She created an incredible remix of "Constant Craving" in late 2021, after the release of our Diva Series. We may update that series later this year to include Tracy's remix, and you can purchase it here for diehard fans.
I could go on and on about the fun we had creating this set and the challenges we faced in curating such a diverse tracklist, but I don't want to take away from the joy of listening to it. If you enjoy this set as much as we enjoyed making it, that's all that matters. We have more incredible releases coming your way, so stay tuned! Until next time... ENJOY!

Spring Into Action with the Hottest Circuit Anthems

Ahh yes, it's that time of year when the dead foilage comes alive and pollen fills our membranes wreaking havoc on our sinuses while covering our outdoor belongings in fluorescent dust that seemingly never goes away. I'm talking about spring the often most desired and detested time of the year. It's that transition from a cold dank winter (milder and milder year over year) to temperate days with lots of sunshine, rain and in the United States — tornadoes.
Put all of that aside for a moment and distract yourself with the Party Favorz annual Spring Edition 2022, which features the hottest circuit anthems and is chock-full of big tribal beats, big room progressive heat, and the biggest divas. Someday, I should make a calendar of all the cover art from our annual series because this guy is sizzling!
I'm dropping a double-hitter this weekend for a couple of key reasons: 1) this set came together flawlessly and if I sit on it for a week — new tracks will drop during that time making me compelled to add them, which just mucks everything up. 2) Our lease is up on July 3rd and since we have to give a two months notice, I'll be hitting up the glutton of new properties in our county this next week so I can be locked and loaded when I start negotiations early. All signs indicate that our complex is raising rent by $300, which in this area makes no sense. We have a 2/3 occupancy rate and dozens of new housing complexes have been built in the past couple of years here. Add to that a sizeable amount that was already built between the 80s and just 10 years ago and there are a lot of options. We never bought a house because there are too many responsibilities involved and frankly, we don't have any kids.
Truth be told, we've lived here since this place was under construction in 2017 and would like to remain here for a couple more years. Rick has talked about moving back to South Texas where we're from to be closer to his family but the reason I left the entire state was to get away from there. My father is deceased and my mother and sister now live in North Texas about a 10-hour drive from there (yes, Texas is a big ass state) but that wouldn't be for another couple of years if we decided to.
My goal is to be able to negotiate a new 24-month lease with a moderate increase that buys us enough time (because we hate moving) and by then, our plans could change depending on what direction the United States takes in its governing. I see things going south quickly, which is why we'll be renewing our passports shortly to be prepared for the worst.
Touring these properties and gathering information, rates and desirable locations takes a lot of time. Don't ever go by listings online as I've found in the past the rates are inflated. It would be foolish not to go to the physical property to see what they're not showing you in these apartment finder apps. That and they almost always have move-in deals like the $2,000 debit card we got for moving where we're at now. Funny how they always show a ton of pictures of the lobby as if that's where you're going to be spending the majority of your time. I get that first impressions are important, but that's not what people are looking for when looking to move.
Anyhow, I digress. Just hope we aren't moving in July because that will muck up the Party Favorz summer release schedule.
I do plan on getting ahead of the curve for Gay Pride this year. For one, there's going to be a massive update to our earlier Gay Anthem and Pride Classics series and I may even release the annual Catch-Up series early this year. All of this isn't set in stone and needs to be thoroughly vetted before I decide the right path forward but just know that this year's Gay Pride is going to be big and I mean...really BIG! Kinda like you size queens like it.
For now, hit the gym and power through the hottest circuit anthems for spring!
Until the next time...ENJOY!

Funky House Spring 2022: All Night Long

"All Night Long" is an episode that stands out even in a genre as dynamic as Funky House. The set takes you on a musical journey that could very well mirror a night out in an upscale NYC club. It has a very cosompolitan feel to it. But more than that, it's an audial storytelling experience that binds various eras of dance music into one seamless mix.
You'll appreciate the inclusion of tracks that not only get people dancing today but have been doing so for decades. Chemise's "She Can't Love You" is a perfect example. It's an 80s classic reimagined by Purple Disco Machine, showing that good music can transcend time.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0nqA7uTVjS8
Adding another layer of depth to the episode is Jocelyn Brown with "Pickin Up Promises." For those not in the know, Brown has been a fixture in the music scene since the disco era. Her track's remix by Dr Packer seamlessly bridges Funky House's past and present, reminding us that the genre is rooted in a rich musical history.
Then there's "Wish I Didn't Miss You," an Angie Stone classic that's been given a danceable twist. Featuring Tasha LaRae and mixed by DJ Spen and John Morales, the track has been revitalized without losing its emotive core.
The episode isn't stuck in the past, though. Contemporary tracks like "What I Want" by Ron Carroll with Aires Adora on vocal duties are just as compelling, showcasing the modern influences that keep Funky House fresh and engaging.
So, whether you're a long-time listener or new to the Funky House scene, "All Night Long" offers something for everyone. It's a reminder of why we fell in love with this genre in the first place and why we keep coming back for more.
Until the next time...ENJOY!

Spring Tea Dance Edition 2022: Spring Forward with the Hottest Poolside Dance Party

Party Favorz has landed a new Spring Tea Dance Edition just in time for spring. This set offers a whole lot Sunday afternoon power tracks to compliment your cocktails.
Lately, Dirty Disco has been on a tear with one solid remix after another and the Spring Tea Dance Edition 2022 is chock-full of them. I had more Disco Gurls, Block & Crown, and Ghostmasters but most of those tracks have been moved to either the next Disco House set or Thank God It's Disco series.
This set begins with a low simmer but quickly sizzles to a low boil before finally cooling down with two notable entries to close it out. We have the excellent Eric Kupper remix of Reba McEntire's 'Does He Love You' and a new Diana Ross track 'I Still Believe' with Purple Disco Machine at the helm. Reba sounds stronger than ever on this 2009 classic and while still excellent — Diana's voice is beginning to show strain. Both ladies are DIVAS in their own right and the fact that they're still making great music is a testament to their iconic status within their industries.
I had started working on the next Funky House installment but to be honest, the music just isn't there...yet. It's generally the easiest series to whip up but too many of the biggest songs just fell flat (IMHO). So, I've pushed that back to its original scheduled release for two weeks from now and will begin compiling the set list for the Spring Edition 2022 to be released (fingers crossed) next week.
Until the next time...ENJOY!

Spring Break 2022 — The Essential Spring Break Dance Mix

Party Favorz is back with the essential Spring Break dance mix for 2022! This latest set features all the biggest Dance Club hits of the spring — many of which will spill over into Summer.
Without of doubt, Joel Corry is on a roll and there's no sign he's stopping anytime soon. He appears to have stepped away from his mainstream sugarcoated dance floor earcandy into a deeper Future House groove that's come off leftfield. With 'Liquor Store'  still running high on every DJ list, he drops the Trance classic remake of Da Hool's 'Meet Her At The Love Parade' with his version simply titled 'Parade.' For those of you who took the time to indulge in the Ultimate Trance Classics series we just dropped — this is one of the earliest Trance hits from the 90s that shook the club scene to its foundation.
Speaking of Trance classics, the essential Spring Break set also includes Keanu Silva, Toby Romeo & Sacha's 'Hopeless Heart' which is an ode to the Robert Miles Trance classic 'Children' — a song most generations are intimately familiar with. We also have a 2022 re-work of the massive Trance classic 'Cafe Del Mar' by Paul Reid. I don't know if it was perfect timing or the universe calling back these classics to our collective conscious at the same time we put out the Ultimate Trance Classics Series but it does feel coincidental.
One of our favorites from 2021, Kah-Lo is back with 'Drag Me Out' and 'The Sweetest Pie' by Megan Thee Stallion & Dua Lipa is already making a huge impact on radio and in the clubs. Remixes are only now coming out so be sure not to miss the Dirty Disco remix coming up on our next installment of the T-Dance series. Swedish House Mafia who's had a remarkable comeback to the club scene have teamed up with Sting for a total reimagining of the Police classic 'Roxanne' with 'Red Light' a song that's already on every DJ's top 10 list.
Other notable new tracks gaining momentum are 'Good Luck' by Mabel, Jax Jones & Galantis, 'What Would You Do' by Joel Corry & David Guetta with Bryson Tiller, 'In Your Arms' by Topic, Robin Schulz, Nico Santos & Paul van Dyk (yes, that PVD another Trance reference), Purple Disco Machine and Sophie & the Giant continue their winning collaboration on 'In the Dark' with Oliver Helden doing the remix honors, Ferry Corsten's (yes that FC another Trance throwback) wonderful 'Wounded,' and the KD5 (Kaskade & Deadmaus5) team up for the Progressive House pleasure 'Escape,' while both R3HAB (with Saucy Santana) and Anna Lunoe take a 'dip' into the Freak Nasty classic with their reworks. Who wins that battle is anyone's guess because they're equally good.
Finally, Kungs makes a return with the novelty track 'Clap Your Hands' featuring a children's choir which is making modest inroads in the clubs. Here, Party Favorz delivers an exclusive mashup with David Guetta, which punches up the song making you forget these kids are informing you to remember your A, B, C's.
I've been in a funk most of the week and didn't feel I had much to say about this set until I listened to it back in my car, which flipped my frame of mind. This set doesn't ask anything of you other than to pop it on and forget about all the bullshit happening in the world if only for three hours and twenty-seven minutes while playing it LOUD.
I hope everyone has a happy and safe Spring Break. I'll be back next week with a companion mix of sorts featuring the latest Peak Hour tracks. Until then...ENJOY!

Ultimate Trance Classics Volume 1: A Journey Through the Evolution of Dance Music

Immersing yourself in Trance Classics is akin to taking a voyage through the transformative journey of the dance music scene. This unique genre sprang from the early 1990s techno and hardcore scenes of Germany, enriched by the British new-age music wave.
Trance Classics, renowned for tempos ranging between 120–150 bpm, are hallmarked by repetitive melodic phrases, and a distinct musical form that gradually builds tension and elements, often culminating in electrifying peaks or drops. Their rhythmic influence stems from a rich blend of diverse musical styles such as techno, house, pop, chill-out, classical music, ambient, and the ever-influential progressive house.
In the much-anticipated series, Ultimate Trance Classics, Party Favorz presents a fresh take on trance music that began in the early 90s techno scene and was propelled by the thriving rave culture in the UK and the US.
Influential artists such as Faithless, Perfecto, DJ Tiësto, and Armin Van Buuren navigated this music evolution, moving from House Music to produce intense, tribal electronic sounds that were refreshingly unique at that time. These pioneers set the stage for Trance, leading the genre to an extraordinary crescendo.
The four-volume series of Ultimate Trance Classics is a tribute to this rhythm-filled voyage, encompassing a comprehensive selection of tracks from the 90s and 00s. It's more than a collection of mainstream hits, it's a chronicle of groundbreaking tunes that laid the foundation of Trance and reverberated across dance floors worldwide.
Tracks like Sasha's "Xpander" and Hybrid's "Finished Symphony" take listeners on a sonic exploration, while Faithless's "God Is A DJ" reaffirms the divine nature of dance music. The mystical vibrations of "Tuvan" by Gaia and the enthralling notes of Armin Van Buuren remix  of "Rapture" by iiO further elevate this vibrant collection.
Presenting a range of chart-toppers and overlooked gems, this series features legends such as Tiesto, Ferry Corsten, Matt Darey, Above & Beyond, Chicane, Armin Van Buuren, Sasha, Blank & Jones, and many more. Each artist contributes two to three songs from their compelling repertoire, narrating the saga of Trance Classics through their own lenses.
The four-set series of Ultimate Trance Classics honors this rich history, presenting a carefully curated collection of hits from the 90s and 00s that showcase the essence of Trance at its peak. This includes not just mainstream hits but also groundbreaking tracks that formed the bedrock of the genre.
While creating the Ultimate Trance Classics was a colossal task, it was crucial to pay attention to detail, curating a tracklist that not only entertains but also educates about the genre's roots and evolution.
