…and finally, I’m serving up v4 of the 2008 Beach House Edition. You can expect some of the best funky and soulful house of the summer, with a touch of disco in the mix.
In fact, whoever can tell me the original songs from which #8 and #14 were taken from will get…hmmm, let’s see, oh yeah, my admiration. I’d give away a free t-shirt, but right now I’m ass-broke! The first should be obvious to most since not only was it a #1 disco hit in 1975, but a #1 pop hit as well.
The second was a #1 disco hit but barely cracked the top 40. However, if you were a faithful American Bandstand viewer every Saturday, you might very well remember it. For me, the hooks were instantly recognizable and I was wondering when someone would get around to sampling the latter. Even though they went far beyond sampling, in both cases, they pretty much ripped off the originals note for note. Thankfully they did because they’re smokin’ HOT!
Anywho, speaking of ‘broke ass’…I’m WAY over budget this month and recently incurred some unexpected expenditures. In less than a week and a half, Podbean is going to deduct $39.95 from my PayPal account. Our good friend and loyalist, Discoball out of the UK, has already given $10.00 without even asking, and I thank him for that. What I’m asking is for every person that downloads and enjoys any of these mixes to make a $2 – $3 donation via my PayPal account to your right. If everyone did that, it would not only cover the cost of the Podbean for one month but could even cover it for several more. As I’m sure you must realize, I don’t make a cent off of this site. I do everything I do for the sheer love of it. It’s my passion.
However, if I don’t have enough money to cover next month’s fee, the account will be closed. Meaning no more mixes at all. If I have to come back in mid-August and pay a penalty to re-open my account, it will be a paid service. Meaning, I’ll start charging for each mix. This is not a threat, nor should it be construed that way. I’m just laying out the facts. I’m certain money’s tight for everyone these days, however, a simple monthly or bi-monthly donation of $2 – $3 ain’t gonna break anyone’s bank. This would allow me to continue providing some of the best (if not the best) mixes for your enjoyment on the net. I’m hoping in September to bring other DJs on board to showcase their stuff.
So, if we can keep this thing alive, I’ll be back in 2 weeks with the Summer Edition followed by the Deep Edition, then Classix 90s pt. 2 and a very special promo only Madonna megamix just in time for her 50th. So I’m asking you to please help keep this site alive and more importantly FREE! Just think about what you’re getting in return and you’ll see how reasonable my request is.
That’s it for now. Hopefully, I’ll be back in 2 weeks with the Summer Edition. Until then…Enjoy!
