I finally had an evening to put selections from my top 125 dance tracks into a proper DJ mix. House, disco, techno and more danceable jams are featured.

Like any great album, my favorite has evolved over time.
It started with “One More Time” during Spring Break ‘01.
“Digital Love” was a favorite for a very long time.
Rewatches of “Alive ‘07” had “Crescendolls” as a recent fav.
Final answer: “Face to Face” is my most consistent favorite.
I reloaded my crates with some heaters on @bandcamp.com Friday. New mixes coming this month.
I’m in the thick of my pre-Movement festival lineup research and this Borderland (Juan Atkins/Moritz Von Oswald) record is perfect for the moody and misty day here in Detroit.

Accurate and powerful words throughout this piece, but this take on was spot on and brought back memories of veiled public comments from 6+ years in commission/council meetings.
“We’re shutting the door on people who don’t look or behave like we do. In so doing, we shut the door on ourselves.”
MDOT could have fixed this at least 3 times with willing municipalities during various Ferndale and Detroit projects in the last 8 years but 🤷♂️

Saw a surprising amount of Misfits T-shirts at the @fontainesdc.bsky.social show in Detroit tonight. Seemed like a good sign. Future arena band for sure, like next week. “Starburster” and basically the entirety show ripped.

Happy Birthday to/from a fellow Sagittarius 🫡 ♐️
Glad to see Ian Lockwood involved too!
Did you suggest this idea during the feedback period? I like this idea and would be curious if you got a response. Technically, you could still suggest this with 2 public hearings (PC and City Council) coming up.
