Thank God It’s Funky Friday | Beach House 2021
Friday Jul 23, 2021
Friday Jul 23, 2021
Party Favorz decided to jumpstart your weekend with the annual Beach House Edition 2021 style!
Because of an uptick in music selections, Beach House 2021 is one of the more diverse Disco House sets we've done in a while. Beach House 2021 has everything including NuDisco, Classic House, Jackin House, Soulful, and even some Gospel and Reggae thrown in for good measure — with everything sitting on the funky tip. This is one ball of sunshine that should make kicking back around the pool even more carefree.
There are some classic Disco samples sprinkled throughout as well as some updated originals. In most cases, the DJs don't use the original titles (for unknown reasons but I can surmise) a few of which will be reprised a bit later with the original titles for the fourth installment of Thank God It's Disco.
The set list for the Summer Edition 2021 for our gay circuit boy followers has already been compiled and will be ready to launch by the end of next week. Until then...ENJOY!

Lose CTRL | Summer Peak Hour Party
Saturday Jul 17, 2021
Saturday Jul 17, 2021
After a long gay slog through June where our Gay Pride dance podcasts are currently residing in the top two spots (again) of the Top 10 — Party Favorz is ready to get your summer party started with a brand new Peak Hour set that's going to burn a hole through your earbuds.
We've picked an additional DJ service to add to our arsenal, which gives us a broader selection of the latest floor scorchers. The result is Lose CTRL, which has been on repeat for the past week because it's that good!
Diplo performed his magic on the massive "Marea (We've Lost Dancing" by The Blessed Madonna taking the track to new levels.
Bright Lights takes Britney's "Trouble For Me" and turns it into a progressive burner that's worth the price of entry. Since the original is from 2012, we're hoping Britney will unshackle herself from her father and his merry bandit of grifters and leechers who've been bleeding her dry. It may even be time for a new Diva Hall of Fame entry from Miss Spears in honor of the #freebritney momentum she's receiving.
There are some hot Hot HOT crossover tracks out at the moment: Goodboys' "Bongo Cha Cha Cha" adds some Latin summer flavor while Marshmello and Nitti Gritti team up with Megan Thee Stallion who delivers the epic battle of sexes takedown with "Bad Bitches."
[youtube v="B1PksqFrUAM"]
Other winners included are "Free" by Vintage Culture, Fancy Inc & Roland Clark, "Everybody's Free (To Feel Good)" with Deeper Purpose doing the remix honors for Piero Pirupa's chart-topping ode to the Rozalla classic, and "Emergency" by Tommy Trash & Yolanda Be Cool, which has the 80s kinda feel that beckons us to the dance floor.
With the recent success of "Slim Is Alive" by Richard Grey and Lissat, Eminem and Dr. Dre have had a bit of a resurgence lately but on the dance floor. This set includes "Forget About Dre" and Em's "Without Me," which begs the question why his music hadn't been remixed sooner. All of these songs give a whole new vibe and feel fresh for those who didn't grow up in the early millennium when Emenim struck gold.
We also have a valiant stab at the 2Pac (featuring Dr. Dre) classic "California Love," which makes heavy use of the original while tacking on a deep progressive groove on both ends of the song.
80s mega rock stars Dire Straits (a personal favorite) have also enjoyed a comeback in the unlikely venue of House Music. In the spring Block & Crown and Lissat released "Swingin' Sultan," which is a housed-up version of "Sultans Of Swing." It was in every DJs top 10 for months but we never included it in any of our sets because as good as it is, it just seemed to drag the set. Maybe that was a misstep on our part but that leads to "Money For Nothing."
Dave Delly Umberto Balzanelli created an outstanding remix of the 1985 track, which was included in our Catch-Up 2021 pt. 1 as an easter egg. Now, Ben Phillips has dropped a mashup with the song and MK's "17," which is equally as good. Sometimes I'm floored at people's creativity and the shit they manage to pull together.
We've got more laid out for the rest of July including our annual Beach House, Summer Edition and likely a brand new Dance Club set before the month gives out. Until the next time...ENJOY!

Catch-Up 2021 Volume 2 | The Year’s BIGGEST Dance Club hits so far!
Saturday Jul 03, 2021
Saturday Jul 03, 2021
As promised, Party Favorz is delivering a second slice of the year's biggest dance club songs with a smattering of new releases, bootlegs, and newer club hits that are going to be fueling your summer dance parties. Let's get started.
Anyone with a sense of musical history knows that disco has been all the rage lately but another sound people are missing out on is the resurgence of 80s Dance. Ahh yes, the soundtrack to my life has made its way into your life because...why not.
Calvin Harris has been sidestepping his normal house music pop in search of a new sound. By Your Side (with Tom Grennan) reaches back into the annals of 80s pop with "By Your Side." While I have mixed feelings about this song it is making a lot of top-ten playlists on Spotify so it could be a grower.
A more catchy 80's throwback with a lot of help from the 90's Punk/Pop supergroup Smash Mouth is from Timmy Trumpet. "Camelot" is another track making inroads and while the use of Smash Mouth might be questionable to some, the song does offer a catchy summer pop hook.
Of course, Miley Cyrus has been all about the 80s this year and "Midnight Sky" is one of the year's best along with her duet on "Prisoner" with Dua Lipa (the queen of disco revitalization).
The German record producer and DJ Boys Noize (Alexander Ridha) has been around for a while and has produced some big names in music. His latest release with the help of Jake Shears (Scissor Sisters), is a definite 80's throwback complete with low-grade synths from the early part of the decade when New Wave was a thing. However, it's the Purple Disco Machine remix that takes "All I Want" to a whole new level. PDM delivers a sleazy disco groove with his Donna Summer (Love To Love You Baby) meets Barry White delivery making the song a sex-fueled dance floor pleaser that deserves a wider audience.
[youtube v="1FljmNU5Zk8"]
Another surprise is from the fantastic Dirty Disco who seem to have taken on a new direction in their remixes. From circuit to t-dance and now pop productions — the boys from Houston have taken the Olivio Rodrigo send-off to an ex "Deja Vu," which thematically resembles Alanis Morrissette's "You Oughta Know" in its sentiment. They take the song and flip it with a happy pop dancefloor production taking the song to a whole new level. If I were on Rodrigo's team, I'd remix the original in this style and re-release it for another guaranteed #1 because it just works.
Finally, you're going to hear two new tracks with very familiar samples that you won't be able to put your finger on. First up is Jax Jones' "Feels" which sample the verse of the early 90s #1 pop/R&B hit "Can't Stop" by After 7. Jones adds a deep underlying bass house rhythm and slightly alters the vocals delivering a fun house stomper that's bound to pack floors.
The other track is "Light Up My Life" by Jack Wins and Joe Stone. This also samples another famous track but it was driving me nuts until I finally figured it was Madonna's "Who's That Girl." The sample is very small but employed over and over creating a whole new song from what was likely a throwaway track from her "True Blue" session and later released as the lead single for the soundtrack to the epically bad movie of the same title. Even though the original went to #1, the album ended up in the cutout bends pretty quickly. Bravo to Wins and Stone for dusting it off and making something entirely original out of it.
These two sets should pretty much complete your summer dance club parties but I'll likely drop another sometime in August to finish the season off with late entries. We still have our annual Beach House edition featuring the latest Disco House and Peak Hour, which I've already started compiling, and the annual Summer Edition featuring the latest circuit anthems.
Until the next time...ENJOY!

Catch-Up 2021 Volume 1 | The BIGGEST Dance Club Songs of the year so far!
Friday Jul 02, 2021
Friday Jul 02, 2021
Just in time for your 4th of July holiday parties, Party Favorz is dropping not only one of the most anticipated sets of the year but the only party soundtrack you'll need for the rest of summer.
That's not to say that some mid or late-July releases won't explode that haven't been introduced to the world yet because they always do and most certainly will. However, Catch-Up 2021 gives you the biggest dance club songs of the year that are still riding high on most people's Spotify playlists as well as newcomers that Party Favorz has handpicked to click with house music fans.
As usual, we throw in some bootlegs and mashups to keep the party interesting and you won't find anywhere else but everything required for your summer recovery is included in these two sets.
Did I say two sets? The musical landscape was so plentiful and diverse that it grew to an unmanageable size requiring us to split this year's entry into two volumes, which are 3+ hours of summer fun spread across both sets. There's a lot to unpack here but after previewing these sets over the past week — we can honestly say that we nailed it!
We'll be back tomorrow morning with part 2 of the 2021 Catch-Up. Until then...ENJOY!

Gay Anthems For A New Generation 2021 | Modern Gay Anthems
Friday Jun 18, 2021
Friday Jun 18, 2021
In the wake of our 14th Gay Pride anniversary, Party Favorz presents the annual compilation of Gay Anthems For a new Generation with the biggest Modern Gay Anthems for 2021, merging past iconic classics with the bold tunes of tomorrow's LGBTQ+ music scene.
Cher's anthemic track "Believe" leads the list with its modern touch by Liam Pfeifer, reminding us to keep faith in ourselves and our journey. Rihanna's "We Found Love" inspires us to hold onto hope, even in the darkest times. These tracks embody the essence of modern gay anthems by offering solace, joy, and an avenue for self-expression to the LGBTQ+ community.
Classics like Ultra Naté's "Free," and Whitney Houston's "I Wanna Dance With Somebody," given a fresh spin, are timeless anthems that uplift the spirit, emboldening individuals to embrace their identity fearlessly. They encapsulate the struggles, triumphs, and resilience of the gay community, serving as powerful rallying cries at Pride parades and celebrations.
Lady Gaga's "Born This Way," remixed by Liam Pfeifer, echoes the message of acceptance and self-love, reinforcing its status as a modern gay anthem. Similarly, Robyn's "Dancing On My Own," Lil Nas X's "Montero Call Me By Your Name," and Madonna's "Vogue," each with their unique remixes, represent the community's journey towards self-empowerment, inclusivity, and liberation.
Several tracks on the list, like "YMCA" by Village People, "We Are Family" by Sister Sledge, and "I Will Survive" by Gloria Gaynor, have been pillars of the gay community for decades. These songs have evolved into modern gay anthems, celebrating the diversity and unity of the community.
Moreover, new additions to the gay anthems pantheon, like Dua Lipa's "Levitating," Miley Cyrus' "Midnight Sky," and Ava Max's "My Head & My Heart," incorporate contemporary sounds and themes that resonate with younger LGBTQ+ generations. They reinforce the inclusivity of the gay community, ensuring its musical heritage remains fresh and relevant.
Songs like "Don't Leave Me This Way" by Thelma Houston and "It's A Sin" by Years & Years address the complexities and challenges faced by the LGBTQ+ community, offering solace and solidarity. Their inclusion in this list ensures these narratives remain central to the discourse of gay anthems.
In conclusion, the collection of Modern Gay Anthems for 2021 by Party Favorz is a testament to the evolution of gay anthems. From nostalgic classics reimagined to new anthems with their infectious beats and powerful lyrics, they underline the resilience, diversity, and unity of the LGBTQ+ community. Music continues to play an instrumental role in this journey towards acceptance and equality, with each song offering an echo of the community's past, a snapshot of its present, and a glimpse of its promising future.

Revamped Gay Anthems — Pride Tea Dance Edition 2021
Thursday Jun 10, 2021
Thursday Jun 10, 2021
The Pride T-Dance Edition 2021 serves as both a nod to our history and a current playlist for anyone seeking dance tracks with emotional depth. This set is flush with revamped gay anthems and modern House Music tracks, perfect for any chill Sunday afternoon vibe or moments demanding less intensity than our typical anthems.
Our early release anticipates the upcoming "Gay Anthems For a New Generation 2021," set to enliven your playlists hopefully by this Sunday. This also helps to set the celebratory mood ahead of the official U.S. Pride dates and international festivities in the following week.
Gay Anthems Reimagined
Lady Gaga's "Born This Way," re-envisioned by Dirty Disco's Rainbow Remix, remains a modern-day gay anthem, promoting self-acceptance and community pride. The remix adds a fresh vibe, giving it a contemporary dance floor-ready feel.
Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive," especially in the 2020 Eric Kupper Remix, still packs an emotional punch, emphasizing self-empowerment as she forcefully turns her back on a past lover. It's a universal tale that resonates strongly with the LGBT community and beyond.
Madonna's "Vogue," now as the Division 4 Extended Mix, offers a rich cultural narrative, essentially serving as an anthem for expression and identity. The song, with its invigorating remix, still urges everyone to strike a pose and embrace who they are.
Diana Ross' "Love Hangover" in the Dirty Disco Classic Tribute Remix remains a cornerstone of both romance and heartache, serving as a reminder that love is a journey, often with highs and lows.
Heather Small's "Moving On Up," reimagined by Division 4 & Matt Consola, offers a sense of empowerment and triumph, capturing the essence of breaking free from societal chains.
Ultra Nate's "Free," in the Jet Boot Jack 2019 Remix, continues to be an anthem for liberation and self-expression, encapsulating the core message of being free to live one's life openly.
Sylvester's "You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)" as remixed by Ralphi Rosario, still resonates with the euphoric sense of authentic self-expression and happiness.
Thelma Houston's "Don't Leave Me This Way," turned anew by Jet Boot Jack, expresses the universal anguish of being left by someone you love, a feeling many in the community know all too well.
Erasure's "A Little Respect," transformed by Dirty Disco’s Mainroom Remix, encapsulates the longing for acceptance and respect, something continually sought by the LGBTQ+ community.
The song "Proud" by Heather Small, modified into a Dirty Disco Classic House Remix, serves as an evergreen encouragement for being proud of who you are and your accomplishments.

Finally, "We Are Family" by Sister Sledge, innovatively transformed by Dirty Disco's Rainbow Remix, epitomizes the sense of community and unity that is often sought within the LGBTQ+ circles.
DJs: Revamping Gay Pride Classics into Modern Anthems
Major kudos to the DJs like Dirty Disco, Jet Boot Jack, and Division 4, who skillfully breathe new life into these timeless tracks. These revamped gay anthems strike a delicate balance, maintaining the soul of the original while updating it for today's audiences.
The set serves as a beautiful, celebratory mood-setting playlist, allowing these anthems, old and new, to continue as the soundtrack to our lives, struggles, and triumphs. Until the next time...ENJOY!

It's been one hell of a year but we're finally beginning to see a light at the end of the tunnel due to this long national nightmare. Party Favorz has been here through it all delivering the finest in club music to help you maintain a sense of normalcy. With most major artists holding back remixes and out-of-work DJs transitioning to fee for remixes — it's been tricky if not expensive delivering the goods month after month but somehow, we managed.
Pride Edition 2021 is the most expensive set ever put together clocking in at over $150. We do it to support the DJs and the work they usually give away for free to support their live shows. Out of all these DJs there is one who deserves our biggest gratitude. That DJ is Brazil's Dario Xavier who has been a virtual remix factory of all the latest hits and gay anthems. Like India, Brazil has been one of the hardest hit countries by COVID-19 and the work he puts into his remixes that make up a healthy portion of this set is phenomenal. If you enjoy his remixes — please support his work at https://darioxavier1.bandcamp.com/ There you'll find everything in this set and a whole lot more.
Climbing on my soapbox
I want to call attention to what's going on in the United States at the state level. Many states like my home state of GA have passed Jim Crow-style style laws that are designed to suppress the vote. Not just the votes of Black and Brown people but young people (think college-age) and persons with disabilities. These groups typically vote democratic and these laws have been written in such a manner that they surgically carve out policies to make it more difficult for these groups to vote.
While many people are up in arms about not being able to hand out food and water for voters waiting in long lines to exercise their Constitutional right (typically in areas that are heavily populated by — you guessed it — Black and Brown voters because Republicans in those states have shut down the majority of polling stations, there is so much more to these new laws that are going unnoticed.
Issues like this are a red herring designed to distract from the true anti-democratic parts of these bills. Indeed, the one thing they all have in common is that they give the state legislatures or some appointed body by the legislature to remove the head of elections and the entire election board in heavily democratic counties and appoint their people giving them the right to overturn the will of the people in those counties for virtually any semblance of fraud, which has been proven in the last election to not only be rare but by the hands of Republicans. You literally can't make this shit up.
By doing this, and the heavy Gerrymandering that's about to take place throughout these states after the last census, Republicans are all but assuring themselves total control of government at the state and federal levels. In other words, minority rule. Instead of developing policies that appeal to a broad base of Americans, the only way for them to win is by rigging the system in their favor to maintain complete control of all levers of government.
So what does this have to do with Gay Pride? Currently, these same states are targeting our brothers and sisters in the transgender community with laws that ban them from sports and/or public bathrooms of their choice. They've already enacted stringent "heartbeat" bills in hopes that the rigged SCOTUS will overturn Roe v. Wade, which could very well happen. Rest assured, they won't stop there and will be going after marriage equality, workplace discrimination, and a whole host of other areas that directly affect our lives. Don't think it can't happen? It already is.
There's a lot at stake for the future of the gay community and all I'm asking is that you stay vigilant to the laws that are being enacted in your state because they do directly affect you and the LGBTQ+ community as a whole. I beg you to call your Senators and demand they vote for the H.

Ready For This | T.G.I.F. Disco House Party
Friday May 28, 2021
Friday May 28, 2021
Party Favorz is back and ready to kick off your Memorial Day weekend with a Disco House party! This set is perfect for your pool parties, picnics, and barbeques with friends, family, or any strangers that stumble into your weekend fun.
While there's plenty of Disco in this set, we're also witnessing a re-emergence of the more classic vocal house from the early millennium and a heavy reliance on housed-up versions of early 70s soul music. It's this blending of styles from various decades that's fueling the Disco House craze that's taking over the world.
As more people get vaccinated and we begin to slide out of what was likely the direst year of our lives — Disco is just the right genre we need to leave our worries behind and live a carefree life if only for a fleeting moment.
I'm truly psyched about where this is all heading and have mapped out your summer of music for you.
First, the latest Circuit & Anthems set has been pushed back a week (don't hate on me). This will be our annual circuit Pride Edition and while I have more than enough to fill up the set — I'm waiting on some last-minute drops from some of our favorite DJs. I've decided to refresh the original Gay Anthems series and create the Ultimate Gay Anthems or Pride Classics (I haven't decided on the naming just yet) but just know it's gonna be EPIC! My Gay Anthems For a New Generation folder is filling up fast so I'm ecstatic about that. I also plan on releasing a Gay Pride Tea Dance set later in the month because circuit music isn't everyone's cup of tea and why not have some happy house featuring some of the latest hits and disco classics — then I'll drop the annual Catch-Up featuring the biggest dance club songs of the year so far at the end of the month and just in time for your 4th of July celebrations.
I've also started compiling volume 4 of Thank God It's Disco featuring disco classics re-worked for today's dance floors and have that scheduled for July. Of course, we have our annual Beach House, Summer Heat, and Summer Edition dropping in July as well.
Meanwhile, August is going to bring us the much-delayed Ultimate Madonna Collection that got pushed back last year due to unforeseen circumstances.
As you can see, I've got an ambitious agenda scheduled to keep everyone moving and grooving through the summer months. I hope everyone has an enjoyable Memorial Day weekend.
Until the next time...ENJOY!

Summer Leap 2021 | Get a Head Start on Future Summer Hits! | Fixed
Sunday May 23, 2021
Sunday May 23, 2021
Welcome to the 2021 edition of Summer Leap where Party Favorz anticipates some of the biggest dance club hits heading into the hotter months. It's the time for pool parties, the beach and a break from all of life's issues. This summer is a bigger deal only because many parts of the world are coming out of lockdown with more people getting vaccinated making it safer to go out and be amongst friends and (strangers).
Sadly, dance music has a bit static with much of the commercial releases sounding the same and lacking in originality. That's not to say there aren't several great gems hidden amongst this 62 song set because there are plenty. This isn't anything new and I bitched about the same thing in 2015 when all the rave was "Deep House," which has gone back to its roots and turned into "Future House," which is now more like "Electro House" and is now just labeled Dance. The labels may change but the originality has stayed flat.
Some of the better tunes (especially on the excellent Spring Break 2021), rely on past treasures by sampling the past while creating all new songs for the current generation of party-goers. There's not quite as much lately and that has to do with folks losing inspiration or holding back their work until everything fully opens up. There is one great remix by Purple Disco Machine that's about to drop on the 28th for a new song that's just okay but the remix takes it to another level. I'm expecting this song to explode this summer. I wont' say what it is but it will make an appearance on the 2021 Gay Anthems For a New Generation and the annual Catch-Up towards the end of June.
Much of what's contained in Disco House and Peak Hour is beginning to bleed into commercial dance, which is fine. It needs the shakeup but don't worry — that's not going to effect those series. Ultimately, diversity is key to making a great mix but I'm only as good as the musical output at any given moment.
I do want to mention that the app I was so proud of which had been working flawlessly through the spring is no longer working. It relies on the Microsoft scripts and there are several issues with it at the moment that are not getting addressed in their forums on Github. Ultimately, I'll have to school myself on hosting it myself for better reliability but since I'm self-taught, that could take awhile. I'll let everyone know once something is reliably in place.
We still have a brand new Disco House and Circuit & Anthems releases scheduled for the coming week so be sure to subscribe or follow for the latest updates. Until then...ENJOY!

The kaleidoscopic landscape of Classic House Tracks! — 1996 – 1997 Volume 4
Wednesday May 12, 2021
Wednesday May 12, 2021
Volume four of the Ultimate 90's House Classics is more than a mere compilation; it's a vibrant narrative that paints the metamorphosis of Classic House Tracks into something more eclectic and robust. This final installment doesn't just shine a spotlight on a golden era of dance music; it showcases how the genre found new directions and reached new audiences.
As we dive into the sounds of the late 90s, we encounter the bold explorations of Club 69 (a.k.a. Peter Rauhofer). Known for his sexy House Music songs catering to the gay community, Club 69 rapidly evolved into a new progressive sphere. The remixes like Funky Green Dogs' "Fired Up" and Kevin Aviance's "Din Da Da" not only hit big but set dance floors ablaze, turning peak hour into an electrifying experience.
Simultaneously, names like Tony Moran, Junior Vasquez, Victor Calderone, Ralphi Rosario, and Hex Hector redefined the scene, bringing in a more accessible sound without losing the soul of House. The Classic House Tracks were no longer confined to niche clubs but were resonating with the mainstream, marking the start of a trend that would shape dancefloors for years to come.
The era wasn't just about the music; it was about the DJs becoming stars, far beyond the two turntables and a microphone. Clive Davis of Arista records played a significant role in this phenomenon. Recognizing the potential of dance in the pop landscape, Davis pushed artists like Deborah Cox into realms of R&B and Dance, making them household names.
As the creators of Party Favorz, our connection with House Music transcends the genres. From Trash Disco, 80's Dance, Eurodance, and Trance, our love is profound, but House Music holds a special place. The Ultimate 90's House Classics series is an emblem of this love, reflecting a comprehensive history of the genre, even though it's impossible to encapsulate everything deserving of recognition.
The series is far from over, with 1998 - 1999 set to revive fond memories. Expect more classic house tracks in the summer or early fall. Additionally, the Ultimate Trance series is on the horizon, aiming to wrap up the year with a bang.
Some notable tracks that embody the spirit of this volume include:
Toni Braxton's "I Don't Want To," elegantly remixed by Franki Knuckles.
Me'Shell NdegeOcello's enigmatic "Who Is He And What Is He To You" with Danny Tengalia's N.Y.D.C. Mix.
Ruffneck featuring with Yavahn on "Move Your Body," graced by the Mousse T.'s Peppermint remix.
Patti LaBelle's "When You Talk About Love," masterfully enhanced by Hex Hector's club mix.
Cher's mesmerizing "One By One," taken to new heights by the Junior Vasquez remix.
And the list goes on, capturing the essence of 90s Dance Floor Hits and classic House tracks, each one a unique gem in the treasure trove of House Music.
Until the next time...ENJOY!
Donate and keep the party going!
