dattrax: Hello Fellow House Freaks!! Welcome! Found this old, probably 6-8yrs old test mix that I've never put on my Podomatic app. It's hawt!! It was an all vinyl record mix. I know because I had a failed experiment where I recorded almost a crate (100 records) in cracks of time between family and work for 1.5mths. Then I realised that the sound quality was garbage and I couldn't even use them. LMAO. Now that my Traxtor S4, 3rd GEN controller has a wicked built-in soundcard, I can muster the ti...

Found a ton of old Bassment Jaxx tracks (12+ tracks) in our digital house music collection and decided to make a mix that's harder-edged to match the incredible energy of their brand of house music!! They were sooooooooooooo ahead of their times for house music!! The rhythms, samples, and arrangements were insane!! So many memories are attached to every track!! Especiall...

dattrax: Hiya Fellow hOuSe FiEnDs!! Welcome new and returning house fanatics!! With this mix, I wanted to make it a bit more banging. Aggressive and more funky house tracks. Still layered with sweet vocals, but probably fun for you during a workout. Definitely not like our usual mellow mixes. How is 2022 starting out for you? I can't believe it's March already. The worse of our frozen north weather should be done in Toronto, Ontario, Canada! It looks like our government is going to relax a bit w...

Hello dattrax Fans!! These house music tracks were begging to be mixed, so after I assaulted my DJ mixer, here's the result for you! The last few mixes have been a blast to make. Kept buying new batches of house because of my addiction. Then picking the tracks that I was feeling and blending it with a core group from recent buys. Adding a few classic house tracks here and there. Hope you enjoy this mix while doing whatever activity. I enjoy house mixes now during this virus event with everything...
