22 Weeks – Goo Goo Eyes (Doc Brown Remix) – Unlearn:Records
One of my favourite Unlearn records heaters.This remix is the perfect track for transitioning my set into a higher and deeper energy level.
Austin Ato – What U Want – KooKoo Records
A funky dancefloor banger. This track flows perfectly into any daytime or funky early in the night set. Austin Ato slows it down into the second drop, capturing attention of the audience and bringing everyone back into sync.
Hercules & Love Affair – Blind (Frankie Knuckles Remix) – DFA Records
The combination of classic vibes, haunting vocals, and funky energy really creates a unique atmosphere. Horn samples can add so much depth and richness to the sound.
Dave Winnel – Wait A Minute – The Myth of NYX
The staccato flute samples really create a lively, dynamic energy. I love how a long break down can heighten the anticipation for the drop—it’s such a powerful way to engage listeners. This track has a masterfully balance of tension and release.
LP Giobbi -Take My Hand (Walker & Royce Remix) – Animal Talk
This LP Giobbi track is beautifully crafted and Walker & Royce enhance it’s best elelments! Magnetic synth stabs paired with a complementary vocal can create such a rich sonic landscape. It’s clever how the vocal can act as the catalyst for the drop, guiding listeners into that moment with anticipation.
Trace – Fake Friends (Extended Mix) – Hot Creations
Trace shows in this track how simplicity can be incredibly effective, especially in genres like melodic techno or tech house. It allows the elements to breathe and lets the energy shift naturally, making it perfect for a transition. Tracks that achieve that seamless flow can really elevate a set and keep the dance floor engaged.
Jaded – Welcome To The People (RUMPUS Remix) – Rock Bottom Records
An amazing track combining tech with organic horn sounds. It’s amazing how a remix can breathe new life into a song, Rumpus did a fantastic job enhancing that techy vibe while still respecting the original. It’s always special to find timeless tracks that resonate with you over the years.
PAWSA – THE GROOVY CAT – Blanc Records
Pawsa really knows how to create those memorable hooks! The sassy panther melody is definitely iconic, and it’s great how they build suspense throughout the track. It keeps you engaged and always wanting to hear what’s next.
LNDN – Take on the World
Supporting local prodcuers is great way to foster the music scene. This Canadian tech house producer has a real knack for creating that perfect dance floor experience, blending mystery with comfort. The ability to lead people into that euphoric moment on the second drop is a true talent.
Afro Medusa – Pasilda (Knee Deep Mix) – Armada Music
Latin house has such a vibrant rhythm that can really uplift the mood without people even realizing how much they’re getting into it. This Armada Music bop is all about those infectious beats and catchy melodies that just draw you in.
