WBTV-LP

Ahh I Missed you last week. The music never leaves my brain and matrix of exploration and I find something new every week that I can't wait to share. This week we get right back to it and we are going to have some fun. Its a dance party friends and I hope you will join me for a mix of dance music spanning from the late 70s to today.

I often think about how much Abba my parents played when I was teeny and its influence on my perpetual desire to dance dance dance and dance some more.

Abba is perhaps a bit ridiculous and brilliant both and brought so much disco magic into millions of households around the world. Who knew we would get such influential power ballads from a polyester taunting...bell bottomed and sequin wearing Swedish ensemble. They are originals and I love everything they offered us. We will be hearing from those dancing queens today.

I am so in love with FRankie Knuckles and will be playing a bit of his amazing mixes today. Frankie Knuckles is the Godfather of house music and literally created the Chicago House scene. His melding of disco, freestyle, electronic, drums and pop is unparalleled and I am truly honored to play his music today and in the future I hope. Also hearing from Fatboy Slim and some of my favorite trance icons Paul Van Dyk and Paul Oakenfold.....frickin legands those two and a favorite of us ravers of times past. In their light playing a portal beat from Dash Berlin who came on the scene around 2007 and brought that Oakenfold and Van Dyk trance magic back as if no time had passed. If that Van Dyk piece happens to be on your radio today and you have good speakers please do indulge if you can. I am also playing a strange industrial piece called New York. I was a kid who spent alot of time with my Grandma who lived in the city and I was heavily influenced by both her hardcore NYC style and toughness and the intensity of the 80s overall in NY. It was both teriifying and amazing! SO much music, dancing and art. but a machine indeed and those summers in the city were hot!! This song captures that vibe a bit. I hope you like it <3. Also adding some Neu Dance music that hits hard and deep.Always a bit of variety. <3 Which includes The Drums and Lil bit of The CURE today too.

I dream of summer days that make way into starry nights of non stop dancing, pure sensuality and unbridled passion for the beats. I think to myslef......more please of all things joyous after these past two years . Thanks for letting me play some music to help us all shake it off.
