Rick had his car towed to the dealership last night because his tire blew out. He gets free tires for life, so he had his car towed to the Atlanta dealership 20 miles away. I got up early this morning to drive him to the dealership so he could pick it up and get to work. During that ride, I finally had the opportunity to confirm what I already knew about the first Circuit set of the year. That is; it kicks some serious ASS!
The sun was out and at a cool 40 degrees with the windows down, the heat on high, and the stereo blaring with a Starbucks coffee in one hand and the other on the steering wheel, I could’ve driven all morning long. The Winter Edition 2k17 is a serious workout that has more energy than 10 cans of Red Bull.
Our favorite San Francisco label Swishcraft is leading the pack with four entries followed by our ‘IT’ boys of the moment Barry Harris and Dan Thomas.
The full remixes are out on Donna Summer & Barbra Streisand’s eponymous late-70s disco duet ‘Enough Is Enough’. While the overall package is a little less creative than I would have liked the two standouts are Offer Nissim’s take (featured in last month’s Holiday Edition 2k16 pt. 2) and now our favorite BOYS from Houston, Mark D. & JD Arnold a.k.a. Dirty Disco.
Speaking of which, they teamed up with one of our favorite (albeit disgraced) DIVAS Kim English for a new uplifting, energetic version of her former number one ‘Treat Me Right’ complete with all new vocals. Much like Donna Summer, I have it in my heart for forgiveness; especially when someone’s work speaks to me and has provided so much meaning throughout my life.
I would be remiss if I didn’t mention another one of our favorite DIVAS, Miss LeAnn Rimes. The woman is back and packing a punch with ‘Long Live Love’. I’ve included the knuckle-dragging Ivan Gomez mix here but don’t pass up on the Dave Aude version which is as good.
I could go on and on about the songs in this set but that could take a couple of pages. Every 1’s a winner and a guaranteed treat for your ears and ass.
Since I’m treating every one to two different sets this week (don’t forget I just dropped the latest Dance set ‘Dance Sessions Winter 2017‘ yesterday, I likely won’t be releasing anything next week. You’ve got over 4 hours of solid tunes to get your party started.
I also want to take this opportunity to give a HUGE shout out to these fantastic folks for their donations to my ongoing efforts: David B. $50; Ignacio G. $10; Billy G. $10 & Gary B. $10. All money goes right back into this site. My total costs for January were close to $250 so this was a massive help.
Next up, I’ll be working on some new BackSpin’s that will take us into the 80’s and some brand-spanking new DIVA series.
Until then…ENJOY!
