My recent effort to make as bangin’ of a 50 minute mix as possible. “A Night Out” contains samples from over 70 different tracks remixed, mashed up, and presented to you at such an insane pace that you never have time to get tired of one thing. Constantly changing genres, styles, and tempo, this mix is a perfect one to fill the dance floor at any event or just to listen to if you’re in the mood for some excellent dance music. I worked on this mix throughout the first few months of 2008.

Originally released n 2006, this was a different kind of mix for me. Instead of playing the duration of 15 or so songs, I took all of the crowd favorites from almost every party I’d Djed at, and compiled them into one long megamix. It’s an hour and 15 minutes long, and has almost 40 songs (albeit short bits of many of them). This was a real challenge to make, and I wasvery happy with how it turned out. Contains songs by almost any dance artist you can think of. Check this one out

Yuksek, a new contender in the electro-house battle

Yuksek is the newest contender in the french-electro-nu disco-house explosion that’s going on right now. While he doesn’t even have a Wikipedia entry about him yet, his music places him with the likes of Daft Punk, Justice, MSTRKRFT, Boyz Noize, and Chromeo. Yuksek brings his own flair to the traditional screaming synth lines and glitchy fuckup beats that we’ve all grown to love so much over the past few years.

10. Tha Carter 3 – Lil’ Wayne
“Tha Carter 3″ gave Lil’ Wayne his first #1 with the sugar sweet “Lollipop,” and the success of that song led this album to garner the strongest first-week sales of any other 2008 LP. The cleanest-produced Wayne album yet, he teams up with world-class producers, vocalists, and rappers like Kanye West, Babyface, and Jay-Z to create a perfect piece of urban pop. Chopped up raw rap tracks like “A Milli” fit right in with more R&B fare like “Comfortable” with ease, and downright weird tracks like “Phone Home” give the album even more character. Despite the fact that it suffers from a common hip-hop flaw (the album is too long, with unnecessary filler), the standout tracks by themselves would make an entire album, and a pretty damn good one at that.
