Cher 2018 | The Diva Series
Thursday Nov 29, 2018
Thursday Nov 29, 2018
Cher is a woman who requires no introduction. For 60 years, the DIVA has been a multi-talented singer, actress, and businesswoman that has accumulated an accolade of awards from Grammy's, Oscars, Emmy, and Golden Globes and was recently honored by the Kennedy Center. Her contribution to pop culture cannot be understated.
Recently, she gave a sit-down interview to the Washington Post that is worth the read.
The woman is an active Twitter user with her own unique style of tweeting her political points of view and disgust with the current administration.
For us gay men, we love her precisely because of who she is and what she represents. Cher is the epitome of a true DIVA and is the gift that keeps on giving.
With her recent turn in the movie musical "Mama Mia! Here We Go Again," she honored us with her rendition of the classic ABBA tunes "Fernando" and "Super Trouper." Inspired to cover more classic ABBA tracks, she went on to release a full album of classics by the Swedish pop group adored by many (including this writer) from around the world. The album was critically acclaimed with its debut landing at #3 on the Billboard Top 200 as well as #1 in Top Album Sales Chart (a best for her lengthy career).
Enter Barry Harris and his devotion to the queen. He has magically re-imagined many of these tracks from her new release "Dancing Queen" and Party Favorz has mixed them in with some of Cher's most iconic songs during her decades of music recording, culminating into one giant Cher wet dream for the true believers.
It is with great honor and respect that Party Favorz once again inducts the fabulous Cher into the Diva Hall of Fame. ENJOY!

Steep yourself into the golden era of music with the 'Ultimate Collection of Trash Disco Volume 7', a sweeping anthology of timeless classic disco grooves. Unveiling an extensive list of 222 hits, this ultimate collection covers 20 hours+ of both chart-topping Disco favorites and hidden gems. This anthology encompasses the broad spectrum of classic disco grooves, although, regrettably, the iconic track "Macho Man" by the Village People there was no worthy edit at the time of this release.
Navigating through a labyrinth of high BPM counts and percussive-heavy anthems, the mixing of the final set presented a unique challenge. Nevertheless, it showcases fan-favorite classic disco grooves like "(You Make Me Feel) Mighty Real" by Sylvester and France Joli's soulful "Come To Me." Despite their challenging nature, these songs synergize perfectly within the grandiose collection.
Highlights include Amii Stewart's invigorating remake of the Eddie Floyd classic "Knock On Wood" and the contagious rhythms of "Lovin' Is Really My Game" by Brainstorm. Experience the weather forecast like never before with The Weather Girls' jubilant "It's Raining Men" and find joy in the uplifting "H.A.P.P.Y. Radio" by Edwin Starr. Other masterpieces like Arpeggio's "Love And Desire" and Musique's NSFW "In The Bush" (which got me in hot water with Sister Phyllis when I passed a note to a girl with the lyrics that I didn't understand in 6th grade) pay tribute to the extraordinary depth and diversity of classic disco grooves.
From the vibrant beats of Patrick Hernandez's "Born To Be Alive" to the infectious energy of "Boogie Woogie Dancin' Shoes" by Claudja Barry, every track serves as a testament to disco's indelible impact on the landscape of music history.
Get ready to embark on a nostalgic journey filled with the best classic disco grooves, where each beat, rhythm, and melody conjures up the magic of a bygone era.
If you enjoyed this series, consider checking out the Thank God It's Disco collection for reworks and modern-day versions of many of these songs.

Trash Disco Volume 3: The Ultimate Old School Disco Compilation
Thursday Nov 15, 2018
Thursday Nov 15, 2018
Get ready to groove to the third volume of the Ultimate Trash Disco Collection: Old School Disco at its finest! Dive into Disco history as we bring you an incredible mix of legendary Trash Disco tracks.
In the early days, these songs were crafted by live musicians, resulting in intricate beats that may sound mismatched. Thanks to modern technology, we've aligned the beats for smooth DJ transitions, but the original recordings often had timing issues. To correct this, we've employed automated beat correction, creating what I like to call "dirty beats" reminiscent of the '90s garage sound. One standout track, "Hit 'N Run Lover" by Carol Jiana, required extensive adjustments due to misaligned drums and percussion. Despite the challenges, we've included it to honor its importance in Disco history.
Relive the glory days of old school disco with timeless classics like Sister Sledge's "Lost In Music" and Karen Young's "Hot Shot," Get down to Linda Clifford's "If My Friends Could See Me Now" and CJ & Co.'s "Devil's Gun." Feel the groove with Inner Life's "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" featuring the fabulous vocals of Jocelyn Brown and enjoy Donna Summer's "I Love You" from her critically acclaimed "Once Upon A Time" concept album. Let Gloria Gaynor's "Never Can Say Goodbye" and Village People's "San Francisco [You've Got Me]" transport you to the heart of the disco era. And that's just the beginning!
Prepare for a dancefloor extravaganza with Old School Disco tracks that will keep you moving. From Chic's "Le Freak" to The Jacksons' "Shake Your Body [Down To The Ground]," the energy is unstoppable. Experience the magic of Patrice Rushen's "Haven't You Heard" and the infectious rhythms of Boney M's "Sunny".
Don't miss out on this incredible collection of Old School Disco gems. Let the music take you on a journey back in time.

Prepare to groove to Trash Disco | The Ultimate Collection Volume 2, a remarkable fusion of Vintage Disco Tracks that will ignite your dance floor! With Disco's timeless allure and diverse tempos, this compilation is thoughtfully categorized into three captivating sections.
Blending early '70s soul gems from legends like The O'Jays, M.F.S.B., Barry White, and Van McCoy & the Soul Symphony, along with popular funk and '80s treasures, posed an exhilarating challenge. The '80s soundscape, characterized by affordable beat machines and synthesizers, exuded a distinct coolness. However, my endeavor was to seamlessly intertwine these sonic realms, creating an immersive journey through Vintage Disco Tracks.
Meticulous mastering is paramount to present mix-friendly edits of the original tracks. DJs often rely on the quality of the masters at their disposal, but not all CD rips are created equal. I've taken great care to ensure that each track resonates with the utmost quality and fidelity, tailor-made for contemporary playback devices.
In the forthcoming posts, I'll provide fascinating insights into the creation of this collection, acknowledging the invaluable contributions of fellow DJs, and exploring the captivating history of the Disco era.

The Best of Disco Classics — Ultimate Trash Disco Collection: Volume 1
Saturday Nov 10, 2018
Saturday Nov 10, 2018
With a deep-rooted love for Disco and over 300 beloved Disco Classics mixed into non-stop party compilations, the Trash Disco series represents my devotion and passion for this iconic music genre. The Ultimate Collection of Disco Classics includes iconic songs like Ashford & Simpson's "Found A Cure", the BB&Q Band's "On The Beat", "Risky Changes" by Bionic Boogie, and Aretha Franklin's "Jump To It". Tracks like Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive" are guaranteed to pull you onto the dance floor, and the timeless hit "Love Train" by the O'Jays concludes this compilation, leaving no disco fan wanting.
This comprehensive collection even incorporates classic riffs that have inspired today's music, keeping fans grooving without a pause. While the original Trash Disco series may be more suitable for casual fans, the Ultimate Collection is specifically curated for aficionados who share my die-hard love for Disco Classics.
The passion for these Disco Classics stemmed from my early years, devoid of pocket money in an upper-middle-class family. My father taught me the value of labor, and by sixth grade, I sought ways to support my burgeoning music obsession. Mowing lawns for neighbors sparked a small business, enabling me to indulge my love for disco.
On weekends, I cycled miles to the local record store, purchasing disco 45s that fed my music cravings. This love for music didn't remain just a hobby; it led to my first job in a record store during high school, introducing me to a myriad of artists and genres.
Despite my expanding musical horizons, my affection for Disco remained constant. This passion led to the creation of the Trash Disco series, a tribute to the unforgettable era of Disco Classics.
Until next time... ENJOY!

Purple Disco Machine: A 2018 Retrospective of Dance Music’s Rising Star
Friday Nov 02, 2018
Friday Nov 02, 2018
Emerging from the German dance scene, Tino Piontek, famously known as Purple Disco Machine, initiated his journey in the dance music realm back in 2009. He caught our ears after we tuned into an episode of HBO's "Looking." In a particularly captivating dance scene featuring "Do You Feel the Same" by Hercules & Love Affair, the lead character finds himself engrossed in his boss, who seems to share the sentiment. The moment was electrifying for multiple reasons: not only did my gaydar ping, but the music was so fitting, it sent me down a rabbit hole to identify that irresistible tune.
2018 was nothing short of a milestone year for PDM. He took the iconic '90s techno gem "Male Stripper" by Man 2 Man and breathed new life into it, layering in legendary vocal samples from Loleatta Holloway. The end result, "Dished (Male Stripper)," became a ubiquitous anthem across clubs, both underground and mainstream, earning itself a guaranteed spot on our annual Top Dance Songs of the Year list.
The remarkable thing about Purple Disco Machine is that you can't box him into a single genre or style. Instead of being constrained by a recognizable 'signature,' he explores the spectrum of dance music. PDM is masterful at tailoring his unique concoction of disco and funk to amplify the essence of any song, making every tune a potential dance floor banger, be it NuDisco, Deep House, Classic House, or even Indie Dance (where he really shines).
Here at Party Favorz, we pride ourselves on curating our Legacy series, not just saluting artists and DJs deceased and alive who have made significant contributions to the world of dance music but we also celebrate artists and DJs on the cusp of mega-stardom. This tribute to PDM is not a farewell; it's more like a salute to his burgeoning career. The sky's the limit for this guy, and we anticipate even more sonic brilliance from him in the future.
Raising a toast to Purple Disco Machine for his ever-growing impact on the dance music landscape. We can't wait to see what else he has in store for us.
Until the next time...ENJOY!
Donate and keep the party going!

Drop It!
Wednesday Oct 31, 2018
Wednesday Oct 31, 2018
Party Favorz is back to help you get over the mid-week hump with Drop It featuring the latest Tech House and Techno sounds from the underground!
This set harkens back to some of the earlier sets I created when I resurrected the Deep Edition. That is, it's darker than most but still, party worthy. It kicks off a bit slow with a remake of the early 90's underground rave classic "DJ's Take Control," which has several updated remixes including the remastered original. The original would fit nicely in any set today but I decided to go with the Shadow Child remix. Frankly, the remixes really didn't bring anything new to the table. In fact, you'd never know what song it was if it wasn't labeled. Regardless, consider it a warmer before things start to heat up and boil over before simmering down at the end.
The creation process for this set is the most challenging I've had in years. So much so, it took me over a week to get it where I thought it should go. Several songs were heavily edited to keep the listener engaged and moving along at a rapid pace. The final version takes you on a journey that leaves you wanting more. Pat on the back for working this bitch out!
I still have my birthday gift I'll be sharing with everyone on Friday. That is a mix created for myself featuring one of the most talented and promising DJ/producers of the moment. I know a lot of you are big, big fans of this guy and I can't wait to drop it. Until then...ENJOY!

Disco Voyagé

Friday Oct 26, 2018
Though it's cold, drizzling, and frankly miserable, HAPPY FRIDAY anyway! Party Favorz is proud to roll-out the latest FunkyDiscoHouseShit to lift your spirits this weekend with Disco Voyagé.
If anyone needs to be lifted up, it sure as shit is me. When I tried to start my car this morning, it was completely dead. It was a complete system gone bonkers as everything came on but the engine wouldn't turn over. The dashboard was lit up like a Christmas tree including battery, oil, and a series of messages including brake malfunction. These newer computerized cars that practically drive themselves, are not all they're cracked up to be.
I realize, this happens to everyday folks all the time, but it just seems with me that it's one thing after another. Sometimes, it feels like I'm cursed and every week brings a new headache.
Nevertheless, that's not your problem. I'm just venting because I can.
I'm currently working on a new set for Underground House, meaning a whole bunch of new Tech-House hits coming your way next week. The week after that, I plan on a birthday surprise for myself (I deserve it) and will be delivering a new Legacy entry for one of my favorite DJ/producers of the moment. He's only been around for several years, but the man is simply burning it up with his modern-day disco-infused remixes.
For now, I'll just leave it at that, because this set is smoking HOT! Even the most dourer of you will be hard-pressed to not wanna get up and dance, once you take this for a spin. I'll be back next week with something new. Until then...ENJOY!
I want to give a massive shoutout to Anthony S., Glenn A., Ignacio G., Terry C., Nicholas C., Paul B., Steve N., Daisuke M., Scotty O., and Albert R. for their donations! Party Favorz is truly a global platform as some of these donations came from Japan and Greece. You are much appreciated!
This is a known issue with Honda Civics since 2016 and has never been recalled much less fixed. My car is a 2017 with less than 7,000 miles on it. SMDH!

Shannon | The Diva Series
Thursday Oct 25, 2018
Thursday Oct 25, 2018
Shannon Brenda Greene[1][2] (born May 2, 1958), known by the mononym Shannon, is an American singer and songwriter of freestyle and dance-pop music. She is best known for her single "Let the Music Play" and "Give Me Tonight" which topped the Billboard Dance Club Songs chart in 1983-84.
In 1985, Shannon released her second album "Don't You Wanna Get Away," with the same-titled single reaching #1 on Billboard Dance Club Songs chart.
By the time her third album was released in 1986, it appeared her steam was running out. The album "Love Goes All the Way" failed to chart any singles on the dance charts and the radio. What is odd is that Shannon helped pioneer the freestyle genre and it was going stronger than ever at the time. Expose and Lisa Lisa with Cult Jam was very successful on the radio and in the clubs. Freestyle dominated the club charts and radio well into the mid-90s.
Despite looking like an 80's icon that was later the image of Whitney Houston and a great singing voice, it almost appeared that Atlantic records lost interest in promoting her as an artist or didn't know how to market her. By 1987, Shannon asked to be released from her recording contract.
In the 90s, Shannon had a resurgence with remixes of her two biggest hits by Hex Hector, Thunderpuss, and Chris Cox amongst others. She went on to further success recording for Todd Terry, Tony Moran, and Sash!.
It's a shame Shannon had not gained the level of stardom that her peers had, especially since she embodied the full '80s package. Nevertheless, her earliest hits are part of the GenX musical catalog that is beloved by millions.
The first half of this tribute covers her 80's output and then transitions into her 90's work, which consists of House Music, Trance, and Circuit.
It is with great honor that Party Favorz inducts the fabulous Shannon into the Diva Hall of Fame.
Donate and keep the party going!
