But, I’m here now. And, once again, I’m “On the List”; and quite the list it is. Of “The Hottest DJ’s on the Planet” (*their quote not mine). Which means I’m playing again for Miami’s Winter Party, presented by the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force. It’s most definitely one of the biggest, most Represented “Circuit” parties of the year, anywhere in the world. And, It’s Right here in our back yard, which means, that You....Should do your job to keep the fight going by supporting these events. So please, try to come out to help them, help us, help Me, make sure that their services to Our Community, Live on. Tickets for “Sweat” are Only $10. in advance, $15 at the door. It’s without doubt, one of the sexiest crowds to gather, So, gear UP and bring some Love to Shake and Rub. I promise.... I’m doing my part of the job to make it memorable. Can you just imagine how excited I AM. I played this same party last year to a Very hot crowd. So, I know if you were There, at Bill’s Filling Station ,for “Sweat”, Last year, and I know, You know what I’m sayin’.... then I hope you will plan on making This years party, even better. Word of mouth you know. It’s a great time to be seen. And, as I always say....”You have to be Seen, to be Had.” See you at Sweat.!! Music....As Always....There’s been So much good musics to fall in love with. All kinds of hotties out there ….vocals, and not vocals. Techy, noise tracks that are just to take their heads off.....and Sexy deep grooves, that grab you at the hips just to give you a good shaky shake. So, Right now, I’m going to jump Head First, right back into 2013 with some of the big room, peak night, main stage bangers that I’ve been pumping.....just a taste to Wet your, um,....Whistle. The Music: (*Yes, I’m Still using CDs...With, Only 2 sources....rrrrr.) This set puts us in the club, right about when the bus lets off around 12:30 / 1am. Peak night....Push ‘em till they Rub it off, Sexiness... to just see how much they can take. With a Twist. BTW.....They Did. !! Here’s hoping that I’ll be seeing you all for a good night on the town (*slurp) Soon. Love all around Herbie http://www.herbiejames.com http://www.winterparty.org

So, Turns Out, that This set does..make me dance.  See if it does it for you.  Of Course I hope it does.  Because, inside my DJ head, shaped that it is; I try to please everyone, within the boundaries of what’s in the bag at the moment. And depending on the Who’s in the room, where I’ve taken them Before, the Requests coming in (yesss, I have been known to play them, don’t hate.)  Some HerbieHistory...Some of you might know me from the DJ Store days. (15 years as a buyer.  Wow, Those were some days, as there were a Lot of famous And infamous people through all that.) Which makes me a giver...(w).  So, sitting here listening to the set.  This song is playing; and working me.  By DC Rodriquez, called “Crazy Freakin’ Maniac’, on System recordings.  ‘Bin of Fierceness’ approved.  Eme if you want a chart. Anyways....it’s a short (i.e. edited) set...beCause....I took the “Podcasters Editorial Privilege; Provision 22; Act I, Verse two (with a chorus)” liberty...which states....”Podcaster, may feel free to edit some “Meat” out of said song, If he / she deems said song to be either...“too Much to endure the nastiness during a train crossing with the windows down.”....or “If it is So played Out that he / she feels you’ve already heard it enough to know the video moves and therefore don’t want / need to subject the driver Next to you, at a train crossing....to endure it.”  So, yes,...I edited out a bit of “meat” of that Kiki song, and that Fucking song....for just Those moments.  Forgive me if I have overstepped. Meantime....This is still; Only a Very small Shot of how we DOIT in the little Big city.  Hope you’re assimilated by the experience.  Maybe it will enable Us to dance Together soon.  Till the next time.  Keep your heads to the sky....Call your Mother....Eat your fruits and veggies....and Stay Tuned. Love all around Herbie http://www.herbiejames.com

I sincerely do Hope that you will get to hear it Live on a floor near you soon.  Served up Herbicidal.....the way I DO!

Download Bath House 1.mp3 Right Click and Save to download You said a Mouthful,  What Really happened was.... Me, minding my Own business....Doin’ my Own thing...when it All broke loose.  It was like, head down and speeding down the road toward the rail...and by that time, it was Out of my hands.  I had been warned ….that there were going to be famous people involved....and, that I had better keep my clothes on.  Well...That didn’t happen either.  Believe me when I tell you....I’m innocent.  But, then it happened.  Somebody had climbed up on the stage....and they started yelling.  Things started flying....some things were said that can Never be repeated.  There was a firetruck involved....and by close....well let’s just say....some good clothes were torn.... hearts had been broken....and I was Face down in the kiddie pool.  Electro house just Blaring away.   Backing up a bit.  I get to play some Wild parties ….and so it happens every other Saturday night. The rules are No cameras....and No vocals.  Picture it.  Wild I tell you....and Yes....there’s a pool table involved....ask Billy.  Sonically....it’s a mash of progressive electro....and tribal.  Yes....A Word slips out now and then....but No Divas...and No Dance Vocals.  !!  Tell me that That’s not a hard gig!  But, sometimes....the sets are Sexxxxxxy.  These are a couple of them. So,  Forgive me the low 60hz hum under the whole mix....which you’ll probably never hear....it’s not me....it’s them.  But the sexual tension is thick....and the beats are Hhhhhot.  Conjure up your own mix of the kiddie pool circumstances....and turn up the volume....and enjoy a truly Herbicidal Backroom Treatment....I call it Bath House music. I really do wish that you ALL could get the Full “Treatment” and hear it All.  You’ll just need to get Out more to keep up.  I play it ALL....and I love all kinds of music.  Call me Inconsistent if you must.....but I play the room....it’s a gift...and I’ll give it the Way it’s Given to Me.....with Love.  Can you Feel me. Trust me....I have some Early sets to love you with soon....but it’s hard choosing which ones to lay on you first and when.  I’m Very distracted you must know.  So, Be Patient. Meantime....enjoy this hardness for what it is. Love all around Herbie http://www.herbiejames.com

Yes....pay attentions....and Thank you All for listening.  I know there is a LOT of music out there.....all kinds.  And, Dance music....well, the lines there have been so blurred in the last few years....that I’m not exactly sure What to call what I Play.  House, Techno, Tech-House, Nu-Disco, Progressive.  All of the above I’d say.  Yeah....Lucky Me....I get to play it ALL.  As, My drummer, the one on the inside...is Always seeking...and Has Always sought...the element in the music that it takes to move Me.  And That; I hope; moves You!! I’ve said it before; that you really have to BE there to get the full “Effect” of the rubbin’, bumpin’, gropin’, lovin’, drinkin’, pumpin’ sound in the room.  As, this music is Made, in loud studios by loud professionals, to be played LOUD!!  The balance has to be right too.  Not Too loud, not too soft. And, it’s got to fit the space and the crowd.  The actual Sound And, the Music.  Play your Space and your Crowd. One will demand the other. And, when just listening, think of where and to whom it was played To.  That Room....That Crowd.  (*side point, please, know that I know, the differences of what it is to play a pool set, an after-hours, a peak night big room, give me Some credit.) (*sly Dudley Do-right snicker) These sets, here and now....called “Eye On the Groove pt 1 and 2”.  Are two sets that were recorded early some recent Ramrod evening....and from there it went up some more.  Again, it was the night and The crowd to play to.  I Do try to Please there....but I also, Love to Teach them. You’ll hear in this journey, that I drop a few remixes of classics...some vocals...a few techno bombs....but connecting them all is My feel for the Groove.  My Drummer. I always Love when someone comes in the room and tells me that,....even before they Knew who was playing....that they Knew it was Me.  Makes my tail wag....wagwagwagwagwag. People ask me what my “Style” is....and I have to tell them, I love all good music.  Positive lyric, uplifting, sexy and dirty, shake you by the hips, snaps your fingers, till you throw your pants in the corner Musics.  And, all connected with that groove thang.  That thang that gets between your ears and rocks your head....taps your toes....walks the runway...and makes you shout my name. Know what I mean Vern? All said and done....I’m blessed.  Blessed with the love of music.  Wide range OF IT too.  I get to share it with you at the club and here in Your Spaces.  It’s been a Fab year....and now 2012 is upon us....so let’s all....Put these sets in the digital Victrola....Grab yourself a glass of what Ever it is that you enjoy drinking....and raise it up high, for aToast....to Art...and to All the people out there who are sophisticated enough to “Dig It”. To You...all the happiest of the years end holidays, and to the beginnings of the new one.  I wish you All the best of the best there IS.  LOVE!! Enjoy the sets...let me hear-back from you sometimes.....Keep your heads to the sky....and... Love all around, Herbie http://www.herbiejames.com http://www.gayinternetradiolive.com
