2019 Dec Let there be (Head Candi NYD 2020 Vision Party) house!
\\xa0
Wishing everyone a good year in 2020. I know I really need it!
\\xa0
Second part of\\xa0House is a Journey\\xa0&\\xa0HeadCandi\\xa0NYD party. The Dance Session
\\xa0
For clubbers and dancers alike, New Year\\u2019s Day Party, overlooking the Pacific Ocean
\\xa0
Starts with a 2019 remix of Madison Avenue dance classic \\u201cDon\\u2019t Call Me Baby\\u201d. Gives away the fact that this is not a challenging set. Meant to make you feel happy and dance.
\\xa0
Included a four-way Monster Mash, which I am not unhappy about.

The pre-millennials will recognize the HedKandi homage. When CDs were still a thing and labels could make money, compilations such as the HK ones were a must and introduce a whole generation to house in all its forms and iterations. We paid for them, discovered tunes and artists curated by the music directors of the labels. \\xa0 A very different landscape to the A.I. spotified generated playlists which due to the algorithm merely selects a very narrow sample what you are "supposed" to like.
\\xa0
The \\u201cLet there be House\\u201d series is my attempt to resurrect the genre with current tunes. There will be about 9 to 10 episodes in the \\u201cLet there be House\\u201d series, hopefully each with its unique flavour. No particular order but for the fact that we will go up tempo throughout the uploads.
\\xa0
Ninth episode runs from 125 bpm to 130 bpm. Not challenging but for one ghetto house track, which is fun and short.
