This week I have been focused on some mixes. I thought of the music that really made me passionate about djing and my latest mix is all about it.

For 7 years, I worked at a night club in San Jose. Every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday it was packed. I do remember the line was so long to get inside and it was one of the premier spots in San Jose. One thing that got people excited was the music. Times were a little different in the late 90s and early 2000s. Music was house based. There was probably like 3 to 5 hip hop songs during the night but the vibe was house music. I do like hip hop but house is what really made me move. Here is the best of the best tracks that they played at the time. True Classics!

Greetings. This is a mini blog compared to my longer ones. Going to keep it short and to the point!

Before you select any dj for your event it is good to hear what they are all about. Its funny since sometimes people ask to see you perform and then you have to turn them down since you are playing at private events. For respect for your clients, the dj does not invite other guests to the event. A good way to see what is in the dj’s skill set is to see what they have on their mix cloud. Mixcloud is a website that hosts dj mixes. People can see the style of music a dj plays and if the dj can beat match. Beat matching is putting songs together so it is a seamless transition to keep the energy on the dance floor.

For your Bay Area dj, please look at their reviews then if satisfied please check their mixes out. If a dj does not have a mix to share then move on. There are many djs out there but hearing their mixes is the best way to really know a dj.
