Pick-your-mix offer ends tomorrow

Just wanted to give a friendly reminder that the special pick-your-mix membership offer ends tomorrow (Fri) at midnight CST.

Get the details or sign up here.

In 2011, I'm planning to offer individual mixes in addition to memberships but this special pick-your-mix membership offer is still going to be a better deal. But when the New Year rings in, this special offer will ring out and I don't plan on doing any further discount offers for quite awhile. Hopefully you'll take advantage of this special pricing before it's too late.

Happy New Year and let the music play!

Introducing DJColickyBoy.com

logoAs you know, I haven't been very active making DJ mixes the past two months. Time has become increasingly scarce. Other non-music projects kept finding me, and it's been a lot of hard work to maintain this mix blog. It was costing me time & money. With a growing family, increasing projects, and dwindling time to continue providing free DJ mixes to fans, I had to find a way to break even.

A win-win solution

For the two years that I've been posting on this site, I've produced 168 free DJ mixes for everyone. People tell me they love loading up their MP3 player with these mixes for their workouts, their daily jog, heading out to the beach, making their daily commute to work more enjoyable, listening at home or in the car, and everywhere else. But free time is something I'm losing quickly. In order for me to continue, I've created DJColickyBoy.com, where I'll continue to provide DJ mixes for members who pay a small monthly fee.

This is by no means a ploy to get rich. No, I do not plan to quit my day job. But offering memberships to access the DJ mixes will allow you to continue getting the DJ mixes you're used to while also making it worthwhile for me to continue providing the mixes. Everyone wins.

Special discount pricing for fans

A membership gives you access to all mixes on DJColickyBoy.com. And normally, the membership is $9.99/month. However, to acknowledge the special relationship I've had with you as a fan of this mix blog, I'm offering the same membership at 50% off: only $4.99/month...and only to fans of djcolickyboy.blogspot.com. With an average of 5 mixes per month, this comes out to only 99 cents per mix.

This offer ends on Wed, Dec 15th, 2010. Starting on Thur, Dec 16th, the price for djcolickyboy.blogspot.com fans will go up to the same as the monthly price for the general public, which is $9.99/month (at an average 5 mixes per month, this comes out to $1.99 per 30-minute DJ mix, which is still a fair value considering that iTunes charges $1.29 per 4-minute new song).

Celebrate with a new DJ mix

To celebrate the launch of djcolickyboy.com, I'm releasing my latest DJ mix free to everyone: Nonstop New Wave Mix #36. You can listen to a 3-minute sample of the mix on the site as well as download it. I also already have Nonstop New Wave Mix #37 completed but will wait until I finish the year-end mixes (80s, New Wave, Club, Trance and Hands Up) before posting it. Nonstop New Wave Mix #36 will only be free until Wed, Dec 15th. Afterwards, it will be available only to monthly members. The forthcoming year-end mixes for 2010, like all other DJ mixes, will also only be available to monthly members.

Free memberships

For those who can't afford the $4.99 monthly membership, I'm offering free memberships at djcolickyboy.com. A free membership allows access to any one DJ mix every 90 days. At an average 5 mixes per month, that means a free member can download any 1 of the 15 different DJ mixes during those 90 days. To become a free member, simply register or sign in with your Facebook account on the right side of the djcolickyboy.com site. So if you're unsure whether to buy a monthly membership, I hope you at least take advantage of the free membership...you have nothing to lose.

What happens to this blog?

The only change here is that new DJ mixes won't be posted here for free download. I'll still post here when a new DJ mix is posted at djcolickyboy.com but will post the 3-minute sample instead. This will keep you informed of what the latest mix is and you can get a flavor for what is in the mix. I'll also post the cover art for the individual songs used in the mixes, as some people find that interesting (I'll also do the same on djcolickyboy.com). So this blog isn't going away.

Get a monthly membership today

Remember, the special discount price for an all-access monthly membership ends Dec 15, 2010. Keep getting the DJ mixes you're used to...and let the music play!

What Are Your All-Time Favorite New Wave Songs?

I was wondering recently if I were to make a DJ mix of my Top 5 all-time favorite new wave songs, what would they be? This wasn't as easy as I thought!

I know for sure my all-time favorite new wave song, perhaps even all-time favorite dance song period, is New Order's Bizarre Love Triangle (the well-known Substance version, not the earlier Brotherhood version). Wherever/whenever I hear it, I just gotta get up and dance. After that, it gets a bit murkier.

There are a lot of fantastic new wave songs, so it's hard for me to nail down the Top 5. I think numbers 3-5 could probably change any given week...maybe even any given day.

Well, enough contemplating; this ain't rocket science homework. Here's my list for All-Time Top 5 New Wave:

1. New Order - Bizarre Love Triangle (Substance Remix)
2. Kon Kan - I Beg Your Pardon (Special K Remix)
3. Depeche Mode - Strangelove (Bomb The Bass Mix)
4. Book Of Love - Pretty Boys and Pretty Girls (Extended Mix)
5. Erasure - Oh L'Amour (The Funky Sisters Remix)

Honorable mentions go to Depeche Mode's "Enjoy The Silence", Camouflage's "The Great Commandment", Cetu Javu's "Situations", New Order's "Touched By The Hand Of God", New Order's "Fine Time", New Scene's "Out Of Control (The Belgium Mix)", Nitzer Ebb's "Join In The Chant", OMD's "If You Leave", Peter Schilling's "The Different Story", Red Flag's "Russian Radio", Sandra's "Everlasting Love", the theme from S-Express, New Order's "The Perfect Kiss", and Erasure's "Love To Hate You (Paul Dakeyne Mix)".

How about you? What are your top 5 all-time favorite new wave songs?

Depeche Mode - A Question Of Lust (Peep Show Mix)

This is track 9 on Nonstop New Wave Mix #7. This remix is also known as the Answer Mix.

Here is the music video:

Happy Monday! Here is a new 30-minute DJ mix that alternates tracks from different decades. It continues from Nonstop Music Through The Decades Mix #8 and averages 130 bpm.
