Five Mixes in Five Days

Over at Digeum, I’ve decided to close out the year with a set of five mixes in five days. Are you ready for some grooves? Right on! Here we go.

1. Monday – Digeum Mix Session 05M – “Orbit Around the Moon” – 1:18:39 @ 128 bpm – 78 minutes of tech house grooves, including the likes of Sunshine Jones, Pascal FEOS, Dennis Ferrer, Manuel Tur & dplay, and Touane.
2. Tuesday – Digeum Mix Session 05N – “Two-Stepping Tuesday” – 1:19:26 @ 130 bpm – Reaching into the Two-step/garage archives for 80 minutes of bouncing fun, with artists like MJ Cole, Kristine Blond, Sneaker Pimps, Club Asylum, and Teena Marie (RIP).
3. Wednesday – Digeum Mix Session 05O – “Three Sixty-Three” – 2:17:38 @ 128 bpm – Another beautiful long tech house mix, 26 tracks strong, with new-to-me cuts and old familiar tunes. Booka Shade, Dubtribe Sound System, Inland Knights, Style of Eye, Julien Jabre, and more.
4. Thursday – Digeum Mix Session 05P – “Countdown Eve” – 1:18:51 @ 125 bpm – Loaded with vocal deep house tracks, mainly familiar favorites, this was tremendously fun to mix. It’s even more fun to sing along to this in the car. Featuring Lisa Shaw, Blue Six, Chuck Love, Kaskade, and Kings of Tomorrow.
5. Friday – Digeum Mix Session 05Q – “Last Day Disco” – 1:18:36 @ 128 bpm – Disco-influenced funky house gems to get your blood up in a frenzy for New Year’s Eve. Music from Martin Solveig, Moloko, Mario Fabriani, Fish Go Deep, and Dubtribe Sound System. Unh!

I hope you enjoy some of these mixes. Doing five mixes in five days isn’t the easiest thing in the world, but it is really fun. Bonus: I burned three of these mixes to CD for the car.

No, I still haven’t installed a new stereo in my 2008 Pontiac, which has an aux button on the stock deck, but no 1/8″ jack. That’s on my list for 2011.
