For the end of 2006, I decided to craft a soulful house mix rich with deep, jazzy influences. I’ve always loved hearing standout vocalists in house—their talent deserves more attention beyond pop and commercial scenes. This mix is emotionally charged yet energetic, and it’s built to move you on the dance floor. Featuring beautiful vocal performances and a roster of respected producers, I’m proud to present: Ananda Project, Solu Music feat Kai Martin, Ralf Gum feat Concha Buika, Demarkus Lewis, Kerri Chandler & Monique Bingham, DJ Spinna feat Heavy, KneeDeep feat Sharlene Hector, Samantha Jones, Solaris Heights, Fresh & Low, Fred Everything & JT Donaldson, Brian Tappert, Soul Creation feat Tyrah Jae, Darryl D'Bonneau & Groove Assassins, Davidson Ospina vs Jack Haiti, Franck Roger, Afro-Mystik, Antonio Ocasio feat Mustafa Akbar, Roy Davis Jr.
This time my aim was to craft a deep-tech house mix that stays true to deep rather than leaning too techy—more deep house, less tech. It opens with easy-listening, soulful, jazzy tunes and gradually evolves into a cohesive deep-tech progression, featuring some standout vocal tracks. We’ve got a lineup of beautiful artists, including: Deep House Souldiers, Shrewd Collective, Roomsa, Blacksoul feat Rithma, Jazzy Eyewear feat Del, Fred Everything & JT Donaldson, Shawn Ward, Magik Johnson, Jimpster, The Rurals, Chuck Love, Sumo feat Aaron Phiri, Brown & Da Sunlounge, Andy Caldwell feat Amma, Iz & Diz
At the outset, this mix dives into serious, deep-toned house, then evolves into dirtier, jazzy, funky, sexy disco sounds that deliver that unmistakable underground feel. It carries a beautiful, positive, and sensual energy, and it’ll move your feet—you’ll be dancing before you know it. Do you want it? I do. If you check out these artists, you’ll hear exactly what I’m aiming for: Nostalgia 77 Octet, Andy Ward & Deep Josh feat Diana Waite, Joi Cardwell, Demarkus Lewis, 95 North, Peven Everett, Antonio Ocasio feat Annette Taylor, Cafe Soul All Stars, Eddie Matos, Dennis Ferrer feat Karlon Brooks Sr, Urban Soul, Kerri Chandler, Liquid People
This DJ mix delivers a deep, jazzy, and funky house experience with a darker, underground edge. House music is expanding, giving us more ways to curate the best tracks, and that’s why each new mix gets better. You’ll hear selections that aren’t always on the dance floor or in every DJ set, because isn’t that the point of DJing—sharing something fresh and unexpected? 100% pure quality house music in 80 mins. Enjoy! Artists: Demarkus Lewis Feat Lady Sah, Vikter Duplaix, Dennis Ferrer Feat Tyrone Ellis, Danylo, Urban Soul, Mark Farina, Roy Davis Jr & Mike Edge, Miguel Migs feat Lisa Shaw, Deep Josh, Zazzy, Reel People feat Angela Johnson, Blaze feat Ultra Naté, Sunshine Jones
This is my first mix since settling in my new home city, New York City. You’ll hear a strong NYC influence—from harder beats and deeper cuts to a sometimes darker atmosphere. It can feel tough to live and create here, but if you dig a little deeper into the music, you’ll discover a light of hope and the positive energy we’re all chasing in this amazing city. I didn’t have time last year to add new tracks, so many of the artists in this mix are new to me. Check it out: Mr. V feat Miss Patty, Chuck Love, Bryan Jones, Brown & Origami & Andrew Phelan, Sean Dimitrie Feat Felicia Lee, Kinky Movement, Jazzy Eyewear feat Del, Iz & Diz, Juke Joint, Audio Soul Project feat Lori, Afromento, Roy Davis Jr & Mike Edge, Urban Soul
