Month: December 2018

Party Favorz is back with the ultimate New Year’s dance party mix, Blow Your Own Horn 2019.  This annual series started back in 2013 as a showcase of some of the finest bootlegs, mashups, and party tracks from the year as well as years past. It’s meant to be one final kiss-off to the year that was welcoming in the new year to come. Over the years it’s evolved into a massive set with some of the best party tracks from the past making it the must-have set for those celebrating with friends closer to home.

I have been bogged down this past week troubleshooting issues with the credit card payment processor for donations. I’ve since disabled it and pushed it out to the new year. If there’s one thing folks that follow this podcast know about me is that I’m anal about every minor detail. This isn’t so minor, and it really irritates the hell out of me when I pay $$$ for things that don’t work, and the developer blames it on another developer’s plugin, or my theme, or anything but them. I’ve performed all the standard troubleshooting to no avail, and they won’t be able to help until after the 1st. That being said, you can still donate using the PayPal option, which also accepts credit cards if you don’t have an account.

My focus had to be getting this final set out in time. As you can see, I’m a day late and a dollar short but the wait is worth it. Blow Your Own Horn 2019 was way harder than previous efforts. I don’t know if it was because I was multi-tasking two completely separate things or that I’m worn out after running a marathon of mixes since Late October.

While I have not previewed the entire set yet, what I have heard so far has left me pleased. I think ya’ll are really gonna love this!

2018 has been a tough slog trying to get through the daily minutia and Individual 1’s constant barrage of self-serving lies, I mean tweets on a continual basis. Life is much easier when you don’t follow much news or politics, but willful ignorance also leaves us without the knowledge to fight for change.

At the beginning of 2018, I originally planned on shutting down Party Favorz, but I persisted and forged on. I’m glad I did.

Frankly, I run this site by the seat of my pants coming up with one idea after another. Many of you have made suggestions for sets that I ultimately tackle, while others need more consideration. Regardless, it’s a group effort, and I appreciate the input.

For now, I plan to keep the doors open at least through mid-April when my hosting expires. If I create a fundraiser for renewing my host, then you know I’m in it for the long haul. That has yet to be determined.

In the interim, I want to thank EVERYBODY from the bottom of my heart that donating to my efforts to bring you what I think is the best (or at least one of the best) dance music podcast that is going into its 12th year. Your loyalty means more to me than I can possibly express.

I hope everyone has a fun and safe New Year. I’ll be back sometime in mid to late January with brand-new sets and a whole new look. Until then…ENJOY!

I just spent the last two hours troubleshooting issues with WordPress that wouldn’t allow me to post. Obviously, it’s been resolved but you kinda get an idea as to the fresh hell I go through on a regular basis through no fault of my own. SMDH.
