Nonstop Energy Mix #81 (My 2008 Faves)

logo

I didn't have the time to do a "2008 Year In Review" DJ mix for all the energy tracks I used in mixes this year so I did this mix instead. It's a one-hour set of my favorite tracks used in my energy mixes this year, mixed a little fast-food style. It has some club, some trance, and some hands up. Starts at 128 bpm and ends at 145 bpm.

There were obviously a lot of great songs that I wanted to include but couldn't.

Hope you enjoy the encore appearance of these songs in this mix...

Fixed: Nonstop 80s Mix #23

I've switched podcast hosts, so Nonstop 80s Mix #23 (2008 Year In Review) is now ready for playing/downloading.

I'll start switching podcast hosts for all the other DJ mix podcasts b/c they will no longer work after Jan 1, 2009. This will be a painfully gradual process so please be patient. If you'd like a specific podcast fixed before others, just let me know and I'll do my best.

Hopefully, this switch will make everything problem-free going forward.

Let the music play!

Disco Deejays - Celebration (Extended Mix)

This is track 7 on Nonstop Energy Mix #77.

Obviously a cover of Kool & The Gang's 80s hit that is overplayed at weddings.

Elin Lanto - Speak 'N Spell (Silverroom Long Club Mix)

This is track 6 on Nonstop Energy Mix #77.

Lanto has been called by some as the next Kylie Minogue, although I think that remains to be seen.

Problem with Nonstop 80s Mix #23

Well, looks like this mix isn't playing/downloading correctly either. It's a big file (168 MB) so dunno if that's the problem or if it's the same problem that was plaguing the other mixes. In any event, I'm looking into it and will let you know when it's fixed.

Nonstop 80s Mix #23 (2008 Year In Review)

logo

Here's a two-hour (!) 80s set. It's basically a "fast-food" mix (tracks transition in and out quickly) of all the 80s tracks I've used in my DJ mixes this year (except for tracks in Nonstop 80s Mixes #13 and 16 since they were already "fast-food" mixed in Nonstop 80s Mix #20). I did exclude similar remixes of the same song to avoid repetition in this long mix (with the exception of the two versions of "Fresh" by Kool & The Gang since they don't sound that similar).

The transitions are all new, and I also selected new places in each song to mix in and out so the songs themselves would sound "fresh". As a bonus, I ended this mix with a previously-unmixed 80s track.

This probably will be my last 80s mix this year. If I have time, I'll try to do an energy "Year in Review" mix as well as a new wave "Year in Review" mix... but I'm pretty busy this Christmas season so no guarantees.

Hope you like it!
