Weekend Warm Up Show #127 5th/6th Of February

LISTEN AGAIN HERE!

Hi again,

the worldwide party is back with music from around the globe - U.K., U.S.A., Italy, Spain, Russia, Germany, Hong Kong, Columbia… Enjoy the trip!

Not new, but good: In October 2007 Germany’s Chris Rockford released his single “Crush“. The track exclusively uses the original sample of the seven times number one hit performed by Jennifer Paige. The feedback for the track, given by Clubs and DJ’s, was amazing. “Crush” reached the no. 2 position in the Ministry Of Sound charts. New remixes are now available on Frauenfunk Records. Check out the infectious Giorgio Sainz take!

Out now on Tommy Boy: Bimbo Jones are serving up a set of remixes of the single “Freeze” from the album HARLEM 1 STOP. Listen to their “Piano Mix” - awesome!

The retro track is a remix by Disco Booth of the Sister Sledge classic “He’s The Greatest Dancer” from their 1979 platinum album “We Are Family”. The single made it on top of the U.S. R&B Charts and peaked at No.9 on the U.S. Pop charts.

My favourite is another remix of a 70’s funk track: The Pockets from Baltimore U.S.A., released their most successful single “Come Go With Me” in 1977. Main Decision from Hong Kong is bringing this awesome song back to life with the help of DJ Nipper on the remix. Brilliant uplifting stuff…

The Tracklist:

1. Craig David - One More Lie (Standing In The Shadows) (LMC 12″ Vocal Mix)
2. R.I.O. Ft. Liz Kay - Watching You (Extended Mix)
3. Inusa Dawuda & DJ Chick - She Danced (Consoul Trainin Remix)

Weekend Warm Up Show #126 29th/30th Of January

LISTEN AGAIN NOW HERE!

Hi Weekenders,

while it is still brutally cold here in Germany and in many other parts of Europe I know that many of you are enjoying warm summer weather in other parts of this world - I am jealous! But what we all have in common is that we can heat up the weekend with excellent new house tracks I have in my bag for show No.126:

We already had the pleasure to listen to the Bassmonkeys remix of Kelly Mueller’s upcoming new single “She Cries” a couple of month ago (Show No.100). The track will be released finally in early 2010 and I am absolutely sure this one will take the charts by storm! Time to spin it again now…
Check out the making of the video here:

Again we will listen to two retros this weekend: The first one is a remix of “Wear It Out” by Stargard, a female soul / disco trio from the U.S.. The song was released in 1979 and was the groups last hit single. Disco Boots now released a new version of the song with a nice Disco House remix by Dirty Freek!

Retro No.2 is the Hitmeister D remake of Fleetwood Mac’sBig Love“. It was the first single to be released from their 1987 album “Tango In The Night“, reaching number five on the U.S. charts and number nine in the UK.

The last song I would like to mention is a real beauty. The wonderful ballad “End Of The World” from Matt Alber’s debut album “Hide Nothing” got the pop remix treatment by Morgan Page. Definitely not the uplifting stuff I am usually spinning and not a club track as well - but a brilliant song I can’t stop to listen to! My favourite this week…

The Tracklist:

1. Inaya Day Vs. Native Sons - Better Days (Big Disco Mix)
2. Kelly Mueller - She Cries (Bassmonkeys Remix)
3. Piparo Ft. John Biancale - The Colour Inside (Piparo & Marani Main Mix)
4. Timbaland Ft. Katy Perry - If We Ever Meet Again (Digital Dog Main Mix)

The Retro Track
5. Disco Boots - Wear It Out (Dirty Freek Remix)

6. Elek-Tro Junkies Ft. Therese - Neon Lights (Bassmonkeys Club Mix)
7. Hitmeister D - Looking Out For Love (Extended Mix)
8. Joey Negro And The Sunburst Band - I’ll Be There 4 You (Kaje Trackheadz Mix)
9. Emanuel McCall Vs. Katherine Ellis - Gotta Get Through (Jamie Wamie Remix)
10. Sandro Peres & Luca Peruzzi Ft. Eduardo Garcya - Tudo Por Voce (Original Mix)

11. Matt Alber - End Of The World (Morgan Page Extended Pop Mix)

Weekend Warm Up Show 125 22nd/23rd Of January

LISTEN AGAIN HERE!

Hi Weekenders,

U.K. diva Angie Brown, best known as part of Bizzarre Inc. (”I’m Gonna Get You“) is back with a new single called “I’m Not Listening Anymore“, remixed old school style by Saint. I saw her performing live last summer at El Divino Ibiza and she was brilliant! Perfect show opener…

Two retros are going on air: “Don’t Stop Till You Get Enough” by Eliess was originally released in 1979 by Michael Jackson. It was his second No.1 solo single in the U.S. and he also got his first solo Grammy for this track.

The second is also my favourite this week: “Ain’t Too Proud To Beg” was a Top 20 hit in the U.S. for the Temptations in 1966 as well as for the Rolling Stones in 1974. Italian based DJ/Producer/Singer Big Mama, who lived in the U.S., Jamaica and the U.K. for many years but who was born in Ghana is responsible for a groovy new remix of this classic.

Enjoy the weekend!

1. Angie Brown - I’m Not Listening Anymore (Saint Club Mix)
2. Chew Lips - Play Together (WAWA Remix)
3. Steve More Ft. Wray - Fool For You (Bassmonkeys Remix)
