Let's go back in time, back to the old skool. And let's not pretend you do not like the old skool music, as everyone does. There's not a single human being on Earth who does not like the early stuff. We all crave for it on a daily basis, and today's no exception. And today I will share with you a mix I came across on Soundcloud, by accident. It's been on my list for a few days, to give it a listen, and today is the day I'm checking out DJ Butty & Recca's mix. And as expected,

Today is a very good day. Not only is it a national holiday, but it is also the day which is special to me and my wife. 17 years together, and still going strong. She made it even more special, by presenting me with tickets to see Tiësto in London in July of this year. Which is super awesome and very wholesome, and I thank her for that. Not seen him for years, nay, decades. I remember seeing him at Innercity 2000, and then nothing. But yet, he's been an influential figure whe

The year is 2005, and I'm still living in the Netherlands. And I'm a massive music freak. My life changed during the early 90s, but during the 00s did my music collection grow in size. I got a steady job and made a decent wage, and my money was spent in my local CD store. Back in the day we had three in Heerlen, Limburg. It would either be a Van Leest CD store, a Free Record Store (but the records were never free, the bastards!) or the one that still remains, Satisfaction Rec

The end of the year is in sight. And what a year it has been. It's been a year, filled with emotions. And it has ended in a bit of a peculiar way. But when it comes to the music I discovered throughout the year, it's been an amazing year. With a lot of excellent mixes on Soundcloud. I've spent so many hours/days/weeks/months on Soundcloud, it is unbelievable. And to end the year properly, let me introduce you to a very mellow sounding mix, you'll certainly enjoy this one! I d

This is the weekend of diversity. Started off with some Hardcore, then to some Jumpstyle, Breakbeat Hardcore followed, after that Trance, and now some lovely House music. There's so much good music out there, and I could not keep it from you. But this mix you are about to listen to, has already had a good amount of plays in 1 year. But all for good reasons: it is House music, and who doesn't love House music, right? We all grew up with it, and it's a safe genre. You cannot go

It isn't sunny anymore, nor is it Summer anymore. It is quite pleasant outside though: currently the temperature is 11 degrees Celsius, which is quite mild for mid December. Global warming isn't just a myth though. But it isn't in full effect yet, as we are still not wearing flip flops in the winter, or ditching the thick coats. At night it does get a bit chilly, and we still have the thick quilt on the bed. The only thing that keeps me warm throughout the day is the music, a

In 1989, I was 6. I heard of Rap and Hip Hop, but obviously the songs that appeared in the Dutch top 40 charts. The more obscure and rougher anthems did not appear on the charts. Pop music dominated everything in the 80s, and truth be told: as a kid you never listen to the lyrics, so I wouldn't have a clue what they were singing about. Only when I grew older did I understand the importance of Rap and Hip Hop. And of course how cool it is, as a genre. In 1989, the world of Hip
