Warmup series: Sandy Rivera ft. LT Brown - Come into my room (Take it back Mix)

There is one thing that I love in DJ-ing: getting a new tune or finding a long waited CD in your mailbox. I feel like 5-year old when getting a new toy, full of excitement and behaving like a little child when I receive my CD that I have ordered from Amazon around 2 weeks ago.
Today is a big day for me - I received my long-waited  House Masters series from Sandy Rivera, and of course I ordered this collection with a reason. There are some really delicious tunes, like this one:


Enjoy!

Warmup mix: Bedroom house session

 I did a mix today and I am publishing it here. Just a bedroom jamming session that I recorded to my hard drive when mixing. Baah, I love DJM 350 mixer - it can record directly your master output to portable hard drive or USB - what a pleasure!
Here it is, my bedroom jamming session mixed and recorded today, in my very private and cozy bedroom:

Warmup series: Masters at Work feat. India - I can't get no sleep

Aaahh... what a voice! This girl drives every man crazy, at least me! So here it is, a nice collab from Master At Work and India, just listen to this voice!

Warmup series: Jakwob ft. Maiday - Fade (Club VIP Mix)

Today is Friday and my leg is in a cast. I twisted it exactly a week ago but the young soul inside me wants to have some fun, listen good music and dance. As I cannot quite exactly do this today, I am still imagining that I can do it and therefore I am posting here a track, that would be a good party starter on some friday evening:

Warmup series: Justin Martin - Ruff Stuff

Sometimes it is very interesting to hear some warmup tune in the warmup set with some unexpected sounds and tricky beats. Justin Martin knows how to build tracks like this, so here it is:

Warmup series: 12 Tones - Matters to me

Aah what a nice and melodic tune! Always love to hear those familiar melodies and vocals on top of good sound production. The thing that I like with this track is the combination between quite powerful vocal melody and quite minimalistic production. Simplicity just stands out and this makes it beautiful :)



Did you like it too? If yes, please let me know!

Warmup series: Rachel Row - Follow The Step (Justin Martin Remix)

As I am still warming up my blog and still posting here some more warmup tunes. This is definitely a perfect warmup tune:



I found it once from Beatport and of course it was one of my best emotional purchases!

Warmup series: Miguel Migs feat. Aya - Don't Stop

As I started my blog with warmup set, I'd like to introduce couple of good warmup tunes too. I think Miguel Migs has done some very good warmup tunes (I've played some of his tunes outside the bedroom too), like this:



But still, dependending on the set and evening, it could a good peak-hour track too :)

Warmup sets

 Warmup sets are always great, no matter in which type of music or style they are. I think that warmup DJ-s are really these guys who need to be appreciated more. Typically when you hit the nightclub, you see some no-name DJ playing some slower and more quiet tunes at the beginning and you do not even notice who was that guy or what was his mission, not talking about the DJ name.

One of my favorite warmup makers has always been Armin Van Buuren (yes, he plays other music than trance too!).

So here it is, A State Of Trance 550 Warmup set from Kiev by mr Armin Van Buuren himself:



You can also have a look at Spotify and search for "A State Of Trance 600", they have posted some more warmup sets there.

If you know some good warmup sets or good warmup DJ-s, please don't hesitate to share their names or links below in the comments section!

What? Yet another music blog? YES!

 Hey All, as I started DJ-ing already some months ago and my musical taste is developing, I decided to open a little diary to track stuff that I like and maybe share it with others.

All my sharings are based on my personal taste and the gut feel. I share DJ sets & separate tracks. I am not a prisoner of my own style.

 I am hosting no radio show at the moment but this is actually the thing that has been in my mind for a long time now. When I get all legal stuff cleared up and there is nothing to complain about it by authorities, I'll start doing that.
But meanwhile, enjoy the show here!

Yours,
DJ Ziggy M (because DJ Ziggy is already taken!)
