Mix Monday: Christian Strobe - DJ Promo Mix 02

I forget when I first came across German dj/producer Christian Strobe, but I do remember the song that first caught my ears. "Midnight Call" is deep, hypnotic house track with some seriously intoxicating beats.

Christian Strobe's mix is the real focus of this post. The song selection for this mix is what got me. It's got some of my favorites by Russ Chimes, Digitalism, Grum, and Boys Noize, but it's also got some hidden gems. I found myself stopping this mix quite a few times. Check out the mix below and after the jump, I'll share my stopping points.

Here's this week's playlist, enjoy!

Mix Monday: Shiny Disco Club - Millenium Disco

Shiny Disco Club is a French label that started a little over a year ago. This isn't a new mix, but I've been listening to it a lot lately. Not only are these tracks some of the best of the French touch genre I've heard, but they're all freebies for download. I've played a couple tracks on the show. Check out the other downloads on their Soundcloud and disco jive all the way to sleep tonight.

Hi all! Thanks for listening if you caught the show this week. Come back next week 8-10pm for more. The show streams online at www.thecore.fm, or if you're in the Piscataway area, turn your dial to 90.3fm and listen old school. Here's the playlist from tonight's show! Have a great week!

RIP DJ Mehdi

Thanks to Discobelle for posting this mix. I originally wasn't going to post anything, but wanted to share this with you. Keeping it short. Much love, forever beats.

Tracklist follows.

Mix Monday: SBTRKT - Xfm mix

British dj/producer SBTRKT is huge right now. I'm completely in love with his sound. I find that it's the perfect blend of hip-hop, R&B, house, and chillwave complete with that tribal flair. SBTRKT's got some great energy here. The fact that there's a Gold Panda track in there deserves bonus points in my book. This mix was done for a new show on Xfm, a UK radio station. Enjoy!

Playlist: "Eclecticism" 9/11/2011

Before we get down to business, I just wanted to wish all the best to everyone who lost anyone on 9-11 [insert moment of silence]. I can't believe it's been 10 years. Everyone always says, "It seems like just yesterday," but it really does seem like it was just yesterday.

On a happier note, the beat doesn't stop. It simply keeps on coming. Hopefully tonight's show lightened up today's overall mood. The weather locally was a bit dreary, but these tracks are anything but dreary. Enjoy the list!

Mix Monday: Xinobi - Finally a New Mixtape

Happy Labor Day! If that actually means anything anymore. My roommates and I had a small barbecue, and the grocery store was staying open until 10pm. That's crazy in my opinion. Luckily, I did have the day off, but it didn't seem much different from most other days off. Summer only ended a week ago. Anyway, today is Mix Monday, and Portuguese dj/producer Xinobi has a new mix out. This mix is full of disco grooves and funky house beats. Since it's Labor Day, I'll let the music do all the work and speak for itself. Enjoy!

It's been a while since the last show, but in my opinion, this playlist makes up for everything. We started off kind of slow, but it picked up nicely. I'll be back next week with more electronic goodness!
