March Winter 18 Mix

Playa Hermosa, Nicaragua taken February 24th, 2018


It has been quite some time since last mix. I finally took a long due vacation a couple of weeks ago. Visited my beautiful birth country of Nicaragua.  It has been almost 10 years since last I visited, needles to say, I had an amazing time embracing the country's gorgeous nature, people, food and loved ones.  It was hard coming back to the city grind and Winter gray weather.  So what's better for coping than with music. So, here is the latest of the Winter series combining a strange mix of songs that I have been absorbing for the past 3-4 months.  It's also a bit more experimental compare to other mixes I've done. Hope you enjoy!

Suburbia In the Night


Here is another remix from the Pet Shop Boys series. I could easily put a whole album of remixes at this point.  Enjoy!~

Tren Al Sur


It's been quite some time and thank you for your patience. I have been on vacation, a real vacation! I went to visit my birth country of Nicaragua. It's so amazing and invigorating to get back in touch with your roots. The trip was an amazing multi sensory mix of reconnecting with the land, beaches, food, people, family and friends. It was quite an amazing trip needless to say. There were a couple of songs that resonate this trip. One by Los Prisioneros, a Chilean new wave band that had its peak around 1992. The song is Tren Al Sur, remixed here by yours truly. The other song I won't mention yet you will find out soon.  Enjoy!

Lef To My Own Devices


Here is a long take on one of my favorite dance songs of all times and a favorite from Pet Shop Boys. The anthemic "Left To My Own Devices" getting a the glamjack treatment for the second time around!  I left some parts alone because they were too brilliant and perfect to mess with. Enjoy!

Happy Birthday Disco Monk!




Happy Birthday to this labor of love that was  created in February 2nd  of 2010 upon discovering this wonderful platform. It's hard to believe it's been 8 years of sharing this music I love and inspires me. The visits are consistent in numbers so thank you for all you who visits this site devoted to dance music. I know for the past 2 years the main focus has been on remixes of songs. I will try to include more inspirations, photos and remixes.  In the meantime, here is a new remix of "Break For Love" by Raze as we celebrate love this month. This is a classic house song that I have always loved and never get enough of it. The love that keeps on coming and let's all break for loooove! Enjoy and to many more years of Disco Monk!
