Adele: From Grammy-Winning Newcomer to Diva Hall of Fame Dance Remix Goddess
Sunday Oct 10, 2021
Sunday Oct 10, 2021
English singer Adele (Adele Laurie Blue Adkins) won two Grammys for her debut album 19 in 2009 and it’s been nothing but uphill since then. After the success of that album, if you still didn’t know who she was, you couldn’t avoid her after her sophomore album release 21. Her amazing performance of “Rolling In the Deep” on the Letterman Show further solidified her name and went on to win an additional six Grammy’s including Album of the Year.
By the time 25 landed, all bets were off when she won a contentious battle of the Grammy for Album of the Year beating out another one of our favorite divas Beyoncé. While heartfelt, her acceptance speech may have been slightly over the top but all is forgiven because she was (as in past interviews) genuinely sincere if not surprised by her win.
While lacking the vocal gymnastics of her predecessors, Adele has put herself in a position to wrangle the mantle away from Celine Dion who stole it from Barbra Streisand. She has the qualities of Celine’s overly genuine and heartfelt gratitude and sincerity with Barbra’s street smarts, honesty, and use of frosty language to express her views. Combined with her outstanding beauty and talent, she IS the ultimate DIVA.
Party Favorz is proud if not downright giddy about inducting one of our favorite artists of the 21st century into the DIVA Hall of Fame. Ladies and Gentlemen, please welcome our newest DIVA, Adele.
It's been six long years since one of our favorite divas Adele released an album and we now have word that her next single will be dropping on October 15th. So, Party Favorz thought we would go back and revisit her original induction into the Diva Hall of Fame to get everyone caught up because y'all know there are gonna be slamming remixes (official and unofficial) accompanying her album. So damn good. ENJOY!

Circuit Anthems: The Season’s Hottest Cool Down Mix
Friday Oct 08, 2021
Friday Oct 08, 2021
Every once in a while, a set just comes together without effort and is so flawless that it makes you just want to scream HALLELUJAH! The Fall Edition 2021 featuring the hottest circuit anthems is one such example.
It appears that many top circuit DJs have been switching up their remixes and moving towards a more progressive big room sound, not unlike several tracks you may have heard from the latest Ultimate 90's Classics [1998 - 1999] series. Hell, even Stewart Who? makes an appearance here.
Is it anything new? No. Is it a refreshing change from the redundant big tribal beats that have permeated the scene for the past several years? A resounding YES!
Granted, Dirty Disco has been at the forefront of the change for over a year now and it seems other DJs are just now following suit.
Toy Armada has dropped his big room uplifting anthems in favor of a more progressive house style. There were three new works from him: one was with his longtime partner DJ Grind, another with Jace M (who he's worked with in the past), and a solo offering for Leanh. The last two are a good sampling of his mindset but the one with DJ Grind missed the mark (and was subsequently dropped from this set). Party Favorz looks forward to where he's taking his music because he's a master in the circuit anthems arena.
Even Offer Nissim, who has always stood out from the pack with a very specific progressive sound often emulated by other big-name Israeli DJs has switched things up by housing up his staple sound on his latest collaboration with Deborah Cox on the stellar "Summer of Love.
Up-and-coming fellow Israeli DJ Michael Benayon delivers on what is otherwise a mediocre song "Snow In the Sahara" by Bouvier & Barona featuring Akazi. The song itself sounds like a Eurovision cheesy euro-pop track that Dirty Disco and Wayne G capitalized on but we just weren't feeling it. Micahel Benyon flips the track with a deeper progressive groove that not only gives the song a deeper meaning but actual purpose.
Speaking of Dirty Disco and circuit anthems, the boys have updated the Celeda classic "The Underground" in a variety of flavors that is certain to light up dance floors across the globe. The original track was a former #1 Dance Club hit on Billboard, which was originally released on Peter Rauhofer's Star 69 label in the earlier part of the millennium. I fully expect you'll be hearing this tune in its various incarnations shortly — if you already aren't.
We've got a stellar release schedule lined up for October with the annual Halloween dance mix HW21 dropping next week and it's lining up to be a surefire banger.
Until the next time...ENJOY!

In the vibrant tapestry of dance music history, Party Favorz's Ultimate 90's House Classics has woven a compelling narrative, and as of October 10, 2021, the curtain falls on this monumental series. Volume 6 is not merely a conclusion; it's a crescendo that unearths the remaining massive progressive club hits and Classic House tracks from 1998-1999.
This final volume is like a nostalgic dance floor, filled with tunes that most of us have swayed to, even if their titles might momentarily escape us. A parade of iconic 90s dance hits takes center stage, each one a sparkling gem in the treasure chest of 90's House Music.
One notable exception – the intriguing Hex Hector remix of Tina Turner's "When the Heartache Is Over" – beckons with mystery. Although widely rumored at the time, this version seemed to vanish like a ghost note, overshadowed by the Metro Mix. It was only during the creation of the Tina Turner Diva Hall of Fame series earlier this year that this elusive remix danced back into the limelight.
In those days, being a dance music enthusiast meant more than just clicks and streams. It involved road trips to San Antonio, 4-hour drives from small-town America, and weekend adventures at the Bonham Exchange. It was a quest, not just for the latest club tunes but for the pulsating rhythm that connected music lovers.
The DJ008 website, a precursor to Napster and other file-sharing services, offered a digital avenue for music discovery. But with dial-up connections, where downloading a single song could take hours, the thrill of the physical hunt often prevailed.
Now, as we embrace this volume, we're not merely revisiting a time and place; we're celebrating an era of 90's dance hits and Classic House Tracks that defined a generation. From Kim English's "Unspeakable Joy" (Razor 'n' Guido Vocal Mix) to Mariah Carey's "My All" (David Morales Classic Club Mix), these songs invite us to dance once more to the rhythm of our memories.
Volume 6 is not just a compilation; it's a time capsule, a tribute to a golden age of dance music. Whether it's your first listen or a cherished revisit, these sounds are timeless. Until the next time...ENJOY!

Ultimate 90’s House Classics: Volume 5 – Dance Party Hits of 1998-1999
Thursday Sep 30, 2021
Thursday Sep 30, 2021
Volume 5 of the Ultimate 90's House Classics series from Party Favorz is more than just a playlist; it's a masterful collage of party house classics that defined the closing years of the 20th century. This particular journey from 1998 - 1999, steps beyond the borders of mainstream progressive house, unlocking a treasure trove of musical creativity that continues to inspire the dance floors of today.
Remember "Music Sounds Better With You" by Stardust? This iconic track gave birth to several mashups, including Madonna's live concert sensation, the "Holiday" mashup. Then there's the infectious groove of "Get Get Down" by Paul Johnson, the gritty pulse of "Bodyrock" by Moby, and the timeless melody of "9PM (Til I Come)" by ATB – a track that laid the foundation for this year's hit "Your Love (9PM)" by Topic & A7S.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=duEHCbMWNrs
From "Better Off Alone" by Alice Deejay, which has been resurrected in recent mashups, to the bouncy Eurodance rhythm of "2 Times" by Ann Lee, Volume 5 curates a thrilling ride through the dance hits that shaped a generation. How about "Blue (Da Ba Dee)" by Eiffel 65? Or "King Of My Castle" by Wamdue Project? These tracks, among others, capture the euphoria of an era that reshaped dance music.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lgs9QUtWc3M
What makes Volume 5 truly special is the seamless blend of diverse hits that, on paper, might seem discordant but in reality, create a magical dance music mosaic. Jason Nevins' hard-hitting rock-influenced remix "It's Like That" with Run DMC finds its place alongside the party beats of "Red Alert" by Basement Jaxx, encapsulating the dynamic spirit of 90's dance music.
How did Party Favorz pull off this musical alchemy? That's a secret even I can't quite pinpoint. But one thing is certain: a single spin of this set, and you'll be transported back to some of the most magical moments in dance music history.
As the Ultimate 90's House Classics series nears its end, Volume 5 stands as a joyful testament to the power of dance music's past to energize the present. Stay tuned for the final set, where the massive progressive house tracks will take the spotlight, dropping on Saturday. Until then...ENJOY!

Ultimate 90’s House Classics: Volume 4 – Celebrating Dance Legends of 1998-1999
Saturday Sep 25, 2021
Saturday Sep 25, 2021
Volume 4 of the Ultimate 90's House Classics from 1998-1999 takes you on a unique dance odyssey, bringing together some of the most iconic tunes that defined the era. The mix seamlessly marries creativity with timeless sounds, creating a blend that both honors the classics and celebrates the innovation of the 90s dance music scene.
A standout moment in this mix is the Funkstar Club Mix of Bob Marley's "Sun Is Shining" by Funkstar De Luxe. This remix took Marley's original reggae vibrations and transformed them into a feel-good house anthem, adding a new dimension to the legendary track.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YmOZpLbJOs
The '90s were a golden era for dance music, and this mix doesn't shy away from featuring powerful female vocalists. Janet Jackson's "Together Again" in the Tony Moran 12" Club Mix version is a celebratory, joyous remix that's rich in emotion, while Cher's powerful voice echoes in two remarkable mixes: "Dov'è L'Amore" in Tony Moran's Anthem Mix, and "All Or Nothing" in Danny Tenaglia's International Mix.
Madonna's "Ray Of Light" in the Calderone Club Mix is another gem in this collection, showcasing a fusion of techno-inspired beats with Madonna's iconic vocal flair. Victor Calderone's touch on this remix adds a transcendental quality that elevates the song to a whole new level.
The dancefloor vibrates with the infectious energy of the Pet Shop Boys' "New York City Boy" in The Thunderpuss 2000 Club Mix. Thunderpuss, the remixing team of Barry Harris and Chris Cox, adds a punchy, upbeat vibe to the original track, making it a classic club hit.
Ultra Nate's "Found A Cure" in the Full Intention Club Mix encapsulates the '90s house philosophy with an uplifting message and vibrant, feel-good beat. Full Intention, a duo of producers Michael Gray and Jon Pearn, emphasizes the soulful nature of the song, turning it into an anthem of hope.
This volume paints a vivid picture of an era when dance music was taking bold strides, innovating, and reinventing itself. It's a lovingly crafted tribute to a time when DJs and remixers were pushing boundaries, and dance floors were pulsating to a new beat.

The Ultimate 90's House Classics [1998 – 1999] Volume 3 is more than just a collection of songs; it's an exploration into the very soul of the progressive house movement that took the world by storm during this magical era. In Volume 3, Party Favorz dives deep into the beats, synths, and rhythms that were the heartbeat of clubs worldwide.
Starting off with the heavenly 'Lately' by Divine, masterfully remixed by Jonathan Peters, you're introduced to the energetic synths and harmonies that characterized the genre. This track alone could ignite the dance floor and create a euphoric atmosphere that only 90's house music could deliver.
Classics from this time period like Faith Hill's 'Breathe' and Amber's 'Sexual' are accompanied by remixes from the legends Hex Hector and Thunderpuss, respectively, offering a whole new dimension to these tracks. Each remix is crafted with finesse and passion, creating new experiences for listeners.
Donna Summer's 'I Will Go With You,' and Veronica's 'Someone To Hold' showcase a versatile period where DJs like Johnny Vicious proved their worth, going on to become influential figures in dance music. The Thunderpuss remix of Whitney Houston's thunderous 'It's Not Right, But It's Okay' and the Soul Solution remix of Shania Twain's 'You're Still the One' were game-changers, blending R&B with progressive house in a way that felt new and electrifying.
The inclusion of 'Ojos Asi' by Shakira adds a unique flavor to the mix. A song that blends Latin and Middle Eastern sounds, Shakira's hit represents the diverse landscape of dance music at the time. Under the skilled hand of Pablo Flores, 'Ojos Asi' became an essential club track, marking Shakira's entry into the mainstream.
Kevin Aviance's 'Rhythm Is My Bitch' is another milestone in the mix, highlighting the role of gender-bending artists in shaping the dance music scene. As a trailblazer for artists like Todrick Hall and Lil Nas X, Aviance's fearless style and captivating performances created a lasting legacy.
This volume's strength lies in its ability to capture the essence of a time when dance music was experimental, bold, and boundless. Each track, whether a club favorite or a hidden gem, contributes to the narrative of a period filled with innovation and excitement.
From the explosive power of Whitney Houston's vocals to Shakira's sultry beats, Volume 3 encapsulates a time in dance music that's still remembered and celebrated. The tracks included are not just songs; they are pieces of history that continue to inspire and move people on dance floors across the globe.
Party Favorz's commitment to quality and love for dance music shines through in this collection. The anticipation for what's to come in this series builds, promising more gems and unforgettable musical moments.

Dive Into the Ultimate 90s House Music Classics: Volume 2
Wednesday Sep 15, 2021
Wednesday Sep 15, 2021
After girl groups dominated the nineties, the spotlight shifted to boy bands like Backstreet Boys, NSYNC, and 98°. Meanwhile, TLC's star began to wane due to internal discord. It was an era where the boundaries between pop and dance blurred, as 90s House Music made its mark on the club scene.
At a time when Classic House Tracks were rarely heard on the radio, major labels expertly maneuvered their stars from the airwaves to the dance floors. The expertise of legendary 90s House DJs like Hex Hector, Davidson Ospina, Soul Solution, Thunderpuss, Pablo Flores, and Jonathan Peters played a vital role in this transformation.
Moloko's "Sing It Back" was given life by the Boris Musical Mix, while the Hex Hector club mix of "Find Another Woman" by Reina became an instant hit. Jessica Simpson's "I Wanna Love You Forever" was reinvented by the Soul Solution Extended Club Vocal Version. Chris "The Greek" Panaghi turned TLC's "No Scrubs" into an Iconic 90s Dance Hits, and the list goes on.
Gloria Estefan's "Oye" resonated with the Hex Hector remix, while Funky Green Dogs’ “Body” was transformed by the Club 69 Future Mix. Whitney Houston collaborated with Faith Evans & Kelly Price for "Heartbreak Hotel," and its Hex Hector Club Mix became one of the unforgettable 90s Club Anthems.
In Classic House Tracks like 98°'s "Give Me Just One Night (Una Noche)," the Hex Hector remix took center stage. Britney Spears' "Sometimes" was reborn through the Thunderpuss remix, which transformed the pop song into a massive tribal house anthem.
Among the Iconic 90s Dance Hits, "Mucho Mambo (Sway)" by Shaft occupies a special place. Released in 1999, the song skillfully blends Latin rhythms with house beats to create a danceable groove that resonates with both house enthusiasts and mainstream audiences. Its playful fusion of horns, percussion, and traditional Mambo, set against the backdrop of modern electronic sounds, marks "Mucho Mambo (Sway)" as a timeless classic in 90s House Music. Shaft's innovative yet authentic approach to this track ensures its continued celebration as one of the era's unforgettable dance floor anthems.
This compilation offers a nostalgic journey through 90s House Music, bringing together Iconic 90s Dance Hits, Classic House Tracks, and the era's top remixers. The dance floor's pulsating rhythm, the DJs' creativity, and the timeless appeal of these tracks continue to resonate today.

Legendary House Music DJs of Ultimate 90s House Classics 1998-1999 Volume 1
Sunday Sep 05, 2021
Sunday Sep 05, 2021
The Ultimate 90s House Classics from 1998 to 1999 remains a quintessential period for dance music, with Legendary 90s House DJs like David Morales, Pablo Flores, and Victor Calderone weaving their magic to redefine the tracks for the dance floor. This era saw both mainstream and underground dance hits reimagined and revitalized.
The Legendary 90s remix of "Crush" by Jennifer Paige transported listeners into a new dimension with David Morales' remix. The mix added a distinct electronic flair to the pop hit, creating a timeless dance anthem.
Ricky Martin's "Livin' La Vida Loca" was already a hit, but Pablo Flores' remix elevated it to one of the Top 90s House Classics. The remix gave a unique spin, enhancing the song's energetic vibe, making it a favorite in 90s Club Anthems.
Madonna's "Beautiful Stranger" found a new identity with Calderone's Club Mix. The Legendary 90s House DJs were known for creating 90s anthems, and this remix was no exception. It brought an unexpected freshness to the track with its big room reinterpretation of the Austin Powers theme song.
Shania Twain's "From This Moment On" became an integral part of 90s House Music Festivals with the Soul Solution remix, adding a new layer of depth to Twain's original vocals. It stands as a testament to the transformative power of remixing.
In a brilliant collaboration, David Morales presented The Face featuring Juliet Roberts with "Needin' U" (12" Mix), a track that showcased the best of Old School House Music, while Monifah's "Touch It" and Mousse T. vs. Hot 'N' Juicy's "Horny '98" captured the quintessence of Underground 90s House using sex as a dancefloor weapon.

Destiny's Child's "Bills, Bills, Bills" was transformed into a dance floor hit with the Maurice Joshua remix, and Charlotte's "Skin" was a massive Club 69 anthem, while Cher's "Believe" and Donna Summer's "Love is The Healer" were transformed into Future Anthem Mixes and club classics in their own right.
The era was also marked by the pulsating beats of Vengaboys' "Up And Down", the ethereal tones of Miss Jane's "It's A Fine Day" with ATB doing the remix honors , Dario G's euphoric "Sunchyme", and Pete Heller's groove-infused "Big Love" (Body Music).

These tracks and the Legendary 90s House DJs behind them continue to influence the dance music scene, proving that the Ultimate 90s House Classics were more than just a moment in time; they were a revolution that forever changed the way we experience music. Until the next time...ENJOY!

Last Splash 2021 | T-Dance Edition
Sunday Aug 22, 2021
Sunday Aug 22, 2021
Well, f∩ck me twice on Sunday! Party Favorz (i.e. me, myself, I) has been in a pissy mood all week trying to get this CDN and caching plugin configured to my liking and it's turned into an obsession of defeat. I don't know what that means but it seems to fit the situation.
Since Last Splash was already in the bag and I had planned on taking a much-needed break afterward — I decided to go ahead and drop this Labor Day weekend party set 7 days early.
You'll notice a lot of Block & Crown remixes in this set as I've only recently gotten access to an entire catalog of their work through one of my DJ services. Many of these songs never see the light of day on Beatport or Traxsource but are DJ exclusives (likely because of licensing issues). There's not a lot known about this duo other than they appear to be filling the gap left behind by Almighty and 7th Heaven who have been staples in the gay dance arena for several decades.
While their brand isn't strictly geared towards gay audiences as you'll notice their work ends up on our Dance Club, Disco House, and Peak Hour series — they're remarkably agile and easily adapt to whatever they're working on. In the last couple of years, they started remixing other artists' tracks and have recently embarked on creating original songs for the ZYX Music label (another blast from the past that's still pumping out great dance music).
Other notable duos that have more recently entered this arena are Nacho Chapado & Ivan Gomez whose Guareber Recordings produced earworms with big tribal circuit beats and have now expanded into power disco house tracks and mashups much like Block & Crown are doing with great success. It's not clear if their Disco Gurls and Ghostmasters monikers are indeed themselves or ghost DJs working under the Guareber Recordings label but they've hit on something as there's lots of room and plenty of source material to sample and mashup from the 70s, 80s, 90s and the early millennium.
Then of course there's the Party Favorz favorite Purple Disco Machine, whose remixes and remakes of historical dance classics and current pop and Indie songs bring everything into his own little disco universe has exploded on the dance scene making him one of the most sought-after DJs right now.
Throw all this together with brand new dance gems and cheesy remakes of 80s love songs and you got yourself the most EPIC T-Dance set I've put out to date.
As mentioned earlier, I plan on taking a couple of weeks off from the podcast to recharge my batteries and hopefully get this g*ddamned caching plugin properly configured as well as the app for Party Favorz, which was all working great until it wasn't. The last one isn't on me but on the underlying structure supporting it — mainly Microsoft.
When I return, I plan on finishing off the Ultimate 90's House Classics series before launching the much-delayed Ultimate Trance Classics series. Until the next time...ENJOY!

Summer Farewell 2021 | The Chill Edition
Saturday Aug 21, 2021
Saturday Aug 21, 2021
As we near the end of the 2021 summer season, Party Favorz is cooling things down with our latest Chill Out session, Summer Farewell.
This set features a wide variety of laidback styles including Deep House, Electronica, Lounge, NuJazz, Minimal, and Progressive House to help you slow down and prepare for Fall. Granted, the summer weather seems to be lasting longer and longer these days.
In Georgia, we used to get a taste of Fall in late August but for the last several years, the cooling weather doesn't show up until late September or October before jumping right into winter weather. Fall has always been my favorite time of the year but it just keeps getting shorter and shorter.
Take note that I finally used the massive summer sleeper hit "Love Tonight" by Shouse. If you wonder why there are so many different versions of this track out there using the same refrain, it's because of this song — included here — in its original darker Indie groove form with the full vocals. The song itself has taken on a life of its own and will end up being in the Top 10 of the year's best Dance Club songs (likely the Robin Schulz version).
We have two tracks from newcomer Rosko who just happens to be my nephew. Other than he used to DJ parties in college, I'm not sure where this came from because his gig is a graphic design and advertising. I'm excited for him and look forward to hearing more about his work in the future. I might suggest he ad the album to Beatport, Traxsource, JunoDownload, and Amazon Music as well and select tracks on Kings of Spin for greater exposure. He sent me his first album 'Agents of Purity' out now on Spotify and Apple Music. Check out 'Noseslide' below.

With Labor Day weekend around the corner, Summer Farewell will NOT be the final word of the season. I've already got the next T-Dance — the Sunday afternoon pleasure of our gay boys — set in the can that will drop next week. Far be it for Party Favorz to leave y'all on a somber note before heading into the fall. I will say that this set is a ball of energy and lots of fun. Until the next time...ENJOY!

Madonna Dance Music Tribute 2021: Celebrate!
Saturday Aug 14, 2021
Saturday Aug 14, 2021
As well all know, Monday the 16th is the queen's birthday, and to help launch the various festivities and celebrations that this woman elicits from her millions of fans all over the world — Party Favorz is dropping "Madonna Dance Music Tribute 2021: Celebrate!" featuring another round of fabulous bootlegs of her biggest hits and fan favorites from her 40 years as one of the world's biggest stars.
I realize I had promised the 'Ultimate Madonna Series' this year but decided to flesh out all these bootlegs that have either never appeared on previous releases in this celebratory series and with over two thousand tracks in my collection — there was a lot to choose from. One of these may be official but I can't say for certain with the way remixes are released these days. In addition to these bootlegs, several others were recently released and I wanted to ensure those get the attention they deserve as well.
Since 2022 will be Party Favorz 15 year anniversary, I promise to release comprehensive sets of the official remixes plus the best of the best in bootlegs. I'll just have to get a head start months in advance because these compilations take considerable time and I don't like to rush them.
In the interim, you can go to the official Madonna page on Party Favorz and download past efforts that take on the official remixes and various bootlegs that are not included here. There's more than enough here to fulfill even the hardest of the hardcore fan that you won't find all in one place anywhere else.
I'm near burnt out since running a marathon of releases since the end of May but still have two more offerings for you folks through Labor Day. After that, I'll be taking a much-needed break.
I also want to mention that I had a falling out with Cloudflare who was delivering edge service for Party Favorz to ensure the fastest possible speeds abroad. I've since dropped them and have found another company to pick up the slack but it hasn't been implemented yet. I may do it this weekend or next week so if you experience any wonky behavior from the site, please be patient and just keep checking back because these things usually get fixed within 24 hours or less.
I hope everyone is staying safe, cool, and hydrated because we're not quite done with summer just yet. I also want to wish Madonna a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY and send X0X0 to her and all of her fans around the world with "Madonna Dance Music Tribute 2021: Celebrate!". Until the next time...ENJOY!
Donate and keep the party going!

Summer Melt 2021 | The Ultimate Summer Dance Party!
Saturday Aug 07, 2021
Saturday Aug 07, 2021
Party Favorz is back with the ultimate summer dance party to fuel the remaining days of the season and boy oh boy the Summer Melt 2021 is lit!
When I sat down to compile this set list, it was coming up short and frankly a bit homogenous. There haven't been any late summer bombs released and the majority of it was already covered in the two-volume Catch-Up 2021 series, which dropped at the end of June.
I had started building my set list for future Disco House and Peak Hour releases but after listening to the newer songs in there, I threw them all in with the Dance Club folder and just let the spirit move me. With over 200 tracks to choose from, I did this all on the fly and chose songs that just flowed making for one of the most diverse sets Party Favorz has released since maybe the annual Blow Your Own Horn series.
There's a bit of Future House, EDM, NuDisco, House, Progressive House, and Tech House all fused perfectly in one seamless 4+ hour set leaving you with surprises at every turn. I made sure to include the latest bootlegs, mashups, and updated throwbacks for some familiarity. In short, this is the defacto dance party to close out the summer.
As we all know, August is Madonna's birthday month. Though we skipped last year's entries, we're on track to release a four-volume set for you diehard fans this year. They won't all drop in time for her birthday but since the entire month belongs to Madame X, they'll be released accordingly.
The plan is to hue closely to the original remixes (with a few bootlegs thrown in for good measure) that reflect her long career atop the dance music charts. We'll start with the 80s and then move forward through the various iterations of her ever-evolving styles up to the current day. These will be the most comprehensive sets released by far featuring our favorite diva.
I hope everyone is staying dehydrated because this set is gonna set the house on FIRE!
Until the next time...ENJOY!!!
