Party Favorz: EDM, Circuit House, Funky House & Dance Classics

BackSpin: Electro House Classics & Other Millennial Dance Hits Volume 9: 2011 — 2012

Party Favorz is back with the latest installment of our BackSpin series, spotlighting the Electro House and crossover dance hits that ignited 2011–2012. These two whirlwind years marked EDM’s jump from niche festival staple to mainstream juggernaut, thanks to headline makers like David Guetta and Swedish House Mafia. Their success opened the floodgates for pop stars who craved festival-sized drops—and fans who wanted club energy in their earbuds.
Guetta, SHM & the EDM Gold Rush
David Guetta’s hit-factory formula primed radio for four-on-the-floor beats, but it was Swedish House Mafia’s stadium-grade anthem “Don’t You Worry Child” that proved big-room hooks could rule the Hot 100. Released in September 2012, the track scaled charts on both sides of the Atlantic, cementing Electro House as a pop force and setting a template today’s producers still chase.
Rihanna & Calvin Harris: Lightning in a Bottle
When Rihanna paired with Calvin Harris on “We Found Love”, the song detonated—ten weeks at No. 1 on the Hot 100 and endless DJ spins. Harris stayed in her orbit with “Where Have You Been,” keeping the singer on dance-floor rotation while boosting his own superstar status. Their combo of emotive vocals and festival-ready synths became EDM’s new blueprint for crossover success.
Katy Perry & Ke$ha: Pop Royalty Goes Electro
Katy Perry’s Teenage Dream era technically started in 2010, yet its remix packages stretched well into 2012. dancefloor makeovers of “Firework”, The One That Got Away, and “Last Friday Night” guaranteed Perry prime placement in every peak-hour set. Meanwhile, Ke$ha fed party animals with brat-pop bangers like “Blow” and 2012’s “Die Young,” each armed with remix bundles that slammed straight into the dance-charts.
Lady Gaga: An Enduring LGBTQ Anthem
With “Born This Way”, Gaga delivered a universal call-to-arms wrapped in Electro House armor. Remixers—from Chew Fu and Bimbo Jones to Manhattan Clique and Michael Woods—ensured every LGBTQ+ sub-scene had a tailored version. The result? A gay anthem that moved from Pride parades to prime-time radio without losing an ounce of edge, while becoming a staple in every subsequent Gay Pride celebration.
J.Lo Reinvents, Pitbull Dominates
Dropped by Epic, Jennifer Lopez landed at Island Def Jam and roared back with “On the Floor”—No. 1 in 30-plus countries. Follow-ups “I’m Into You” and “Papi” proved she wasn’t done. Even Epic tried to cash in on her newfound success, dusting off “Dance Again” from her vault, and yes, it’s still a gem.During the same stretch, Pitbull attached his Miami swagger to every chart contender. “Give Me Everything” with Ne-Yo defined 2011’s summer and turned Mr. 305 into Mr. Worldwide. Oversaturation risk? Sure. But Pitbull spun it into a multi-million-dollar empire.
Boy-Band Face-Off: The Wanted vs. One Direction
Scooter Braun-backed The Wanted cracked the U.S. with “Glad You Came,” snagging two Dance Club No. 1s and earning a rightful slot here for our overseas audience. Yet they soon found themselves outshone by One Direction. The newcomers’ bubble-gum hooks, polished by Electro-leaning remixes, sent them rocketing past their rivals—proof that teen-pop floor-fillers never go out of style.
Nicki Minaj Bridges Genres
Before every rapper flirted with EDM, Nicki Minaj jumped in headfirst. “Super Bass,” “Starships,” and “Pound the Alarm” blended day-glo synths with rapid-fire bars—catnip for DJs hunting fresh Electro House ammo. Minaj’s genre-hopping approach mirrored the Black Eyed Peas’ earlier success and showed hip-hop could thrive atop a four-on-the-floor backbone.
Big-Room Anthems & Indie Surprises
Fun.’s “We Are Young” tapped millennial angst and nostalgia, then Alvin Risk’s remix set emo hearts racing in every club line. Festival favorites like Avicii’s “Levels” and Porter Robinson’s “Language” gave progressive-house fans their own widescreen moments, rounding out a scene that felt limitless.
What’s Next for BackSpin
We’ve only scratched the surface. BackSpin Vol. 10 drops Sunday, with Vols. 11 and 12 landing in early to mid-September. After all, summer is still going strong so watch for Beach House 2025, Vol. 2 and Summer Heat 2025 Vol. 2 as August rolls toward Labor Day. More Electro House nostalgia, more dance hits, and more reasons to crank the volume are on deck.
Until the next time...ENJOY!

Summer Edition 2025: Heat Index: CALIENTE!

Party Favorz is back with our annual Summer Edition — and this one is straight-up caliente!Packed with all your seasonal favorites, this sizzling set features bangers from David Guetta & Cedric Gervais, Miley Cyrus, Argy & Omnya, James Hype, Rose & Bruno Mars, BLACKPINK, Sabrina Carpenter, Jade, Alex Warren, Lady Gaga, and Calvin Harris with Clementine Douglas. If you're looking for the perfect soundtrack to fuel your summer workouts, pool parties, or rooftop get-togethers — look no further.
Since June, Party Favorz has been bringing the fire, hitting every corner of the dance music landscape to keep your days and nights charged with nonstop beats and good vibes. There's been so much dropped lately, it's time to catch our breath as we start work on the next chapter of our BackSpin series — this time focusing on the high-octane era of 2011–2012.
We’ve also got a few surprises lined up for August, but we’re keeping things under wraps for now. One of the potential drops hinges on a rework of a beloved track by one of our favorite divas, and we're hoping Dirty Disco will work their magic. Mark's already shown interest, but he’s been touring hard — including a recent stint on a gay cruise — so we’re giving him the space to breathe. This one’s sacred and untouched, so it deserves the proper treatment. Will it happen? You’ll just have to stay tuned.
Until the next time...ENJOY!

Beach House 2025: Sun-Kissed Disco House Summer Mix

Party Favorz is back with our annual Beach House edition for 2025 and this one hits hard right between the Beach House 2025 lands just in time for rooftop afternoons and seaside sunsets. Every track is chosen for maximum lift—no filler, no lulls. Expect crisp percussion, rubber-band basslines, and glittering strings that nod to the golden age of Disco while keeping today’s punch.
Heavy Hitters From Start to Finish
We open fast and never back off. New crowd-pleasers like “Sun Is Shining 2025” and “Everybody’s Free (To Feel Good)” arrive with chunky piano stabs and filter sweeps that scream summer. Mid-set, the energy crests with “Give It Up”, “Last Night a DJ Saved My Life,” and a turbo-charged “9 PM (Til I Come)”—all rebuilt for 2025 floors in true Funky-Disco fashion.
The Genius of Keep On Jumpin’
House heads know sampling can be art, and Wh0’s 2022 remix of Todd Terry’s “Keep On Jumpin’” proves it. The chart below shows how two musical bloodlines converge:

Beethoven — Symphony No. 5 (composed 1804–1808)
Walter Murphy & The Big Apple Band — “A Fifth of Beethoven” (1976)
Musique — “Keep On Jumpin’” (1978)
Todd Terry feat. Martha Wash & Jocelyn Brown — “Keep On Jumpin’” (1996)
Todd Terry feat. Martha Wash & Jocelyn Brown — “Jumpin’ (Wh0 Remix)” (2022)
Wh0 stitches Beethoven’s iconic motif, Murphy’s disco smash, and Todd Terry’s ’96 club classic into a single, floor-rattling missile—sampling done right.
Nods to Our Roots
Old-school Party Favorz fans will spot familiar art vibes. The cover art revives our 2008–2009 Hed Kandi-inspired pin-up style, refreshed for 2025. It’s a wink to where we began and a promise that the feel-good ethos still drives every mix.
The Grand Finale
When the sun finally dips, Ralphi Rosario & Eric Kupper team with Donna Blakely on “Take Me Up.” The punchy soulful House song closes the loop—in Rosario's and Kupper signature style with vocals built to raise hands skyward.
Beach House 2025 is 100% Disco House energy—perfect for decks, docks, or wherever the party spills. Load it, press play, and feel the shoreline shake.
Until the next time… ENJOY!

Summer Throwback Dance Party 2025: Volume 3

[sonaar_audioplayer player_layout="skin_button" sticky_player="true" show_track_market="true"]
Party Favorz returns—surprisingly quick—with Volume 3 of the Summer Throwback Dance Party 2025. This last blast stretches the feel-good journey even further, stacking fresh and funky gems from the ’70s, ’80s, ’90s, and early 2000s. Feeling extra nostalgic, we even tossed in a pair of ’60s sing-along classics every bar crowd has belted out at least once over the past five decades.
The result? A nonstop, pool-ready soundtrack built for cannonballs, cold drinks, and backyard barbeque. We’re worn out—but you know how Party Favorz rolls. There’s no time to lounge because the annual Beach Party set is already in the works. Expect a sun-kissed wave of Funky-Disco-House grooves designed to lift spirits and help everyone forget—if only briefly—how chaotic the country feels right now coming your way soon.
We’re not here to proselytize (well, not most of the time). We’re here to pour a little sonic sunshine into your long holiday weekend—and light up every corner of your next gathering.
Until the next time...ENJOY!

Summer Throwback Dance Party 2025: Volume 2

WHOA NELLY! Party Favorz has been working overtime to wrap up as much as possible before the July 4th holiday—and we're dropping Volume 2 of the Summer Throwback Dance Party 2025 a day earlier than expected.
This second set is packed with fan favorites, whether they were originally crafted for the dancefloor or not. Each track has been given a remix refresh, making them fit right into your summer celebration. Even better—this volume is loaded with all-new remixes, so there shouldn't be any repeats (but we won't swear on it).
I’ve got a full day ahead—heading into Atlanta for a doctor’s appointment, grabbing groceries, and picking up some new fish for our aquarium we had ordered—so I’m keeping this brief.
Don’t worry, Volume 3 is still on the way and should drop in the next few days, right before we shift gears into our regular summer fare. Until then, crank up the speakers and have a safe, happy 4th of July!
Until the next time...ENJOY!

Summer Throwback Dance Party 2025: Volume 1

It's that time again—just before the July 4th holiday—when Party Favorz serves up a sizzling summer throwback dance mix perfect for your backyard BBQ, pool party, or solo kitchen shuffle. And yes, we’re talking all-ages fun here.
If you’re new to this series, Summer Throwback Dance Party is where nostalgia meets the remix. These sets are loaded with classic Pop, Rock, Hip Hop, and Dance hits from the ’70s, ’80s, ’90s, and early 2000s—songs everyone knows and loves—reimagined for today's dance floor. Some tracks mash two iconic hits into a new experience. Others stay faithful to the original but are given a modern boost. Either way, this is a throwback dance mix with universal appeal that keeps the energy high and the vibes carefree.
Old Favorites, New Twists
With each release, I aim to bring something fresh—whether through updated remixes or clever mashups—but it’s not always easy to keep track. Block & Crown, GhostMasters, Ghoustbusterz, The Soul Gang, FlashDancers, Disco Gurls... they’ve all been incredibly prolific. Aside from Block & Crown, most of these names are aliases for the same core group of ghost producers who recycle tracks, change titles, and rebrand under different monikers. One week it’s a “new” release. The next, it’s a rehash of something they dropped six months ago under another name.
I do my best not to repeat tracks from past volumes, but when the remix is good and the groove is timeless, I say let it ride. At the end of the day, a great jam is still a great jam—especially when you’re trying to get the party started.
Volume 1 Is Just the Beginning
Since last year’s Fall Throwback Dance Party, the flood of new retro-inspired tracks has been nonstop. There’s been so much quality output that I had enough material for three volumes this go-around. Because of time constraints, I’m rolling out Volume 1 today and plan to drop Volume 2 by Friday. Volume 3? That one’s coming next week.
No worries though—between this release and what’s coming later in the week, there’s more than enough fuel to keep your holiday playlist spinning. Mix in previous sets, and you've got hours of nonstop throwback party energy. By the time Volume 3 lands, it’ll feel like it was always part of the plan.
One Nation, Under a Groove
Whether you’re reliving your high school dance floor days or introducing the younger crowd to some real classics, there’s something for everyone here. From the ’60s (yes, I slipped a few gems in) through the 2000s, this throwback dance party is built to unite generations. These are the songs that made us move then—and still get us hyped now.
So go ahead—fire up the grill, crack open a cold one, and dance like nobody's watching. Whether it’s 1999 or any other golden year of your past, this Summer Throwback mix was made for moments like these.
Volume 2 is dropping Friday. Until the next time...ENJOY!

The Biggest Dance Songs of 2025 ...So Far! | Catch-Up 2025

Halfway there, but the ride feels shaky
We have officially crossed the midpoint of 2025, and—between a parade of medical visits and tapering off pain pills—I’ve had plenty of time to listen. What I’ve heard is a scene flooded with well-meaning producers who often sound exactly alike. Tools once locked behind studio doors now sit on every laptop, and the consequence is clear: presets rule, random samples of half-forgotten hits scatter everywhere, and every third track chases the same Afro-House rhythm. Variety exists, but you have to dig deeper than ever to find it. Catch-Up 2025 exists for that very reason.
Quantity over quality is wearing thin
Party Favorz screens hundreds of promos each week, covering every style under the dance umbrella. The inbox overload means true standouts must punch harder than ever before. When 30 tracks recycle the same kick, bass patch, and “nostalgia” hook, listeners start wondering whether they’re hearing a playlist or a single endlessly looping song. The “biggest dance songs of 2025” must clear a higher bar, yet the supply of fresh ideas keeps shrinking. That sameness forced me to lower the usual entry threshold just to assemble this Catch-Up 2025 mix—and I do not lower bars lightly.
A remix masterclass from Lola Young & David Puentez
Still, flashes of genius shine. Lola Young’s soulful “Messy” has owned my headphones since January. Early bootlegs skimmed by with polite Future-House padding, fine for playlists but hardly memorable. Then David Puentez arrived. He kept Lola’s raw vocal front and center (even if the verses are a little buried underneath the mix), ratcheted the tension with a snarling synth stab, and slipped in some Stutter House nobody saw coming. The result hits like a confetti cannon on a festival main stage—proof that originality can burn through the noise. This is exactly the mindset the biggest dance songs of 2025 need.
Streams, stats, and the shrinking spotlight
Remember when dance singles pulled 20 million YouTube streams in a week? Now a clip clears 1 million and the industry calls it a “smash.” Much of that traffic moved to Spotify and Apple Music, but pulling numbers is still tougher than ever. Compiling data for Catch-Up 2025 became an exercise in compromise. Lowering stream requirements let slower-burning records claim a slot, and I’m betting some late-season releases will surge before the final Top Dance Songs of 2025 list drops in December. For now, this midpoint snapshot reflects reality—even if reality needs a caffeine shot.
John Summit keeps things interesting
Credit where it belongs: John Summit refuses to coast. Rather than rinsing and repeating his 2024 formula, he jumped into collabs with indie vocalists, alt-pop writers that include sub-genres of his usual fortay. That willingness to gamble earns him multiple nods inside Catch-Up 2025. At the same time, some classics deserve a breather. “Born Slippy,” “Sweet Disposition,” “Silence,” and “Rapture” have inspired timeless moments, yet they don’t need another remake every quarter. Nadia Ali’s rumored return does make me smile—her voice defined an era—but endless tributes risk draining their own magic.
Filling the gaps without filler
A handful of Tech-House floor-workers sneak into the set to keep transitions smooth. They won’t break streaming records, yet they move hips, and momentum matters. In two spots I chose alternate versions over chart-topping originals because the edits lifted energy instead of stalling it. Think of Catch-Up 2025 as a living, breathing night out: the headline tunes shine, but the beat never dies between them.
About that déjà-vu intro…
Sharp-eared listeners will notice the opening block matches the launch of Club Fusion Winter 2025 from earlier in the year. Yes, I accidentally reused it. Chalk that lapse up to brain fog while weaning off prescription painkillers. The good news? Detox is on track, and I’ll share more on the recovery later this summer. Until then, thanks for rolling with the occasional face-palm.
Mid-year verdict—and a challenge
So there you have it: the biggest dance songs of 2025 (so far) gathered in one relentless near 4-hour surge. Catch-Up 2025 might expose cracks in the current landscape, yet it also proves the spark is still alive. Producers, if you’re reading, surprise us. Twist those samples into shapes we’ve never heard. Build new synth patches instead of scrolling to “Bass Preset 037.” Dance music thrives on risk—take some.
If this mix shakes your speakers, remember that Party Favorz runs on listener support. Toss a coin in the digital jukebox and keep the beats flowing for everyone.
Until the next time...ENJOY!

The Ultimate Kylie 2024 | Volume II [Updated]

After "Lights Camera Action" peaked at #1 on Billboard's Dance Radio chart at the end of 2024, I decided to update this set with the Dirty Disco remix and dropped "Sometimes Samauri", which I never liked and wasn't a big hit for Kylie. 

Party Favorz is back with Volume II of the Ultimate Kylie Minogue for 2024 and this one packs a massive punch!
Initially, I wasn't certain how mixing in her current releases with her biggest hits from 10, 15 years ago would work so I dropped in several updated bootlegs that stayed true to the originals, while modernizing those songs for today's dance floors.
I kept several of the original remixes from the time of their release because they work just as well now as they did when they were originally released. I finally got around to perfecting the remastering of older material to tone down pitchy high ssss you hear in some songs, expanded the dynamics on others that sounded a bit flat and punching up the bass to round it out so it didn't sound too cold like much of the original software used to create the mixes. This is a time-consuming process but with the help of ChatGPT, it made it much easier to be able to fine-tune these settings. I couldn't be happier and plan on deploying some of these techniques in future releases (especially Circuit & Anthems where many of the DJs don't use plugins for a more professional sound).
All the remaining big hits like "On A Night Like This," "Spinnig Around," "Slow," "Love At First Sight," "Into the Blue," "The One," and "Breathe" are included here along with many current releases since "Tension" plus rare gems that never charted in the U.S. but had a minor prescence elsewhere. This truly is the Kylie Minogue wet dream all the gay boys have been waiting for. I only hope that I did the Queen justice.
I want ot thank Jack P, Dirk S, Ian A, Paul S, Andrew A, Hans R, David J, Paul B, Taylor OD, Joe S, Glenn A, Nicholas J, Earl K, Michael B, Al F, Adam G, Ignacio G, Casper Y, Doug B, and Raul G for their continued support. I literally could not do this without your help.

Gay Pride Edition 2025: FREE TO BE!

As Party Favorz closes out Gay Pride series—celebrating empowerment, self-love, and freedom—I can’t ignore the direction the United States is drifting.
This afternoon, Washington, D.C. will stage a grand military parade for the U.S. Army’s 250th birthday. Tanks, Black Hawk helicopters, and 6,700 soldiers will rumble down Constitution Avenue, turning what began as an anniversary salute into a made-for-TV tribute to the president on his own birthday.
Meanwhile, the nation edges toward authoritarianism. Over the past week, masked ICE agents swept through Los Angeles in raids that detained scores of immigrants—many with legal status—stoking fear far beyond the undocumented community. The playbook is familiar: demonize “others,” then expand the target list.
https://www.reuters.com/world/us/sen-padilla-says-he-was-forced-ground-handcuffed-during-noem-press-conference-2025-06-12/High-profile confrontations underscore how aggressively the administration punishes dissent. Federal agents forced California Senator Alex Padilla to the ground and hand-cuffed him during a press conference; he was released but not formally arrested. Newark’s mayor, Ras Baraka, was arrested after trying to inspect a new private detention center, and New Jersey Congresswoman LaMonica McIver now faces federal charges for defending him.
The crackdown isn’t limited to immigration. Elite universities from Harvard on down are under investigation, broadcasters like CBS and ABC have paid steep settlements after First-Amendment-protected reporting, and law firms viewed as “too liberal” have seen security clearances yanked and federal contracts canceled. Those who complied did so under duress; those who fought back have won some courtroom victories, yet the White House often ignores rulings it dislikes, even from a generally sympathetic Supreme Court.
That same Court will soon decide Kennedy v. Braidwood Management, a case that could strip away no-cost coverage for preventive care—including PrEP, cancer screenings, and birth-control prescriptions—for more than 150 million people. If the justices side with Braidwood, insurers could drop these benefits or price them out of reach—an outcome that would hit LGBTQ communities first and hardest.
Our relationships, marriages, and hard-won legal protections are again on the line. While extremists ban LGBTQ books and shoehorn sectarian doctrine into public classrooms, we’re asked to trust that we won’t be next. History says otherwise.
So as we celebrate Pride for the rest of June, remember what’s at stake. Martin Niemöller’s warning still echoes:
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—Because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—Because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
Use your voice while you still can.

Gay Anthems For a New Generation 2025 Volume 1: Essentials

It’s that time of year again — when we queers let our hair down, crank up the volume, and celebrate our unapologetic fabulousness. Pride is here, and while the political landscape may feel unstable and our rights constantly under siege, one truth remains: the LGBTQ community will always find a way to throw a damn good party. Or, as the Scissor Sisters cheekily reminded us, “Let’s Have a Kiki.”
Reimagining the Classics
Originally, the plan was to freshen up this year’s edition with newer remixes of iconic gay anthems. But after diving headfirst into a sea of fanmade bootlegs — many of which ranged from barely passable to downright unlistenable — I realized that over the years, I had already assembled the best of the best. So, instead of chasing ghosts, I shifted gears and pulled together what I consider to be the most powerful, energetic, and expertly crafted versions of these beloved tracks that had already been immortalized in digital form.
The Ultimate Essentials
Some songs were no-brainers — standout mixes that continue to dominate queer dancefloors year after year. Others posed a challenge, with multiple excellent interpretations vying for a spot. In those cases, I went with what worked best in the mix and what kept the momentum flowing. Sadly, a few favorites didn’t make the final cut, not because they weren’t worthy, but because they didn’t quite fit this year’s energy. That’s always the hardest part — deciding what to keep and what to let go.
In the end, what you’re getting is a tightly crafted experience: essential gay anthems from as far back as the '70s, reinvented with a modern edge that will hit just right for Millennials and Gen Z — and likely give Gen X and Boomers a reason to raise a glittery eyebrow and smile. These aren’t just remixes — they’re reinventions that breathe new life into songs that already had a heartbeat of their own.
A Community Effort
I want to give a massive shoutout to Hans, who responded to my call for suggestions with enthusiasm and insight. While I already had most of his picks in the archive, and only a couple made the final mix, his contribution helped steer the direction and is greatly appreciated. Hopefully, I did you proud, Hans.
World Pride, Doctor’s Orders, and a Delayed Drop
World Pride reaches its grand finale this weekend in Washington, D.C., which feels a bit off-kilter since it typically wraps up toward the end of June. I had fully intended to get these sets out much earlier, but between deep diving into remix archives and juggling an endless cycle of doctor’s appointments (check recent posts for that saga), time slipped through my fingers like glitter in a windstorm.
What’s Next?
Don’t worry — Volume 2 of Gay Anthems For a New Generation 2025 is scheduled to drop tomorrow morning. Expect more floor-shaking remixes, deeper cuts, and a continuation of this joyful, rebellious celebration of queer identity and liberation. If Volume 1 lights the fuse, Volume 2 brings the fireworks.
So crank it up. Celebrate yourself. And remember, this isn’t just music — it’s a legacy, reborn.
Until the next time...ENJOY!
