Summary: 2019 Dec Let there be (beach) house! Beach and Bargrooves. Starts chilled but you will end up on your feet. The pre-millennials will recognize the HedKandi homage. When CDs were still a thing and labels could make money, compilations such as the HedKandi 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. 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. Here is an attempt to resurrect the genre with current tunes. There will be about 9 to 10 episodes in the “Let there be House” series, hopefully each with its unique flavour. No particular order but for the fact that we will go up tempo throughout the uploads. First episode runs from 112 bpm to 120, yet manages to get you on your feet. Needed to get out of the progressive trance vibe and needed some happy house! Had forgotten how easy it is to mix well-produced house! All sets are live and straight out of the mixer.
