Happy Halloween!




The fun in Halloween used to be dressing up in a costume and going door-to-door to get candy and these days now that we're older, we usually go to a party (or many) and get a different kind of candy. Today, I'm going to be providing a special kind of candy (being , House Music dashed with a little Hip Hop, Reggae and Reggaeton) for everyone at a private Halloween Party tonight for a PR buddy of mine and it's going to be an interesting night to say the least. Check in on Sunday for a special episode of the DU8SHOW of the live show. Happy Halloween!

Site updates for the V.03 BETA!




Today I've made some updates to the site which is slowly coming out of BETA. I've expanded everything so that it fills up more space and there's a great deal more stuff under the hood that I've added. This update also includes more content which will be consistent from now on checking up on other sites daily for the latest and greatest. I'm going to try out some new page elements for the Podcast, such as a built-in player for shows so you could listen to them before you download and I'm currently testing out some voice hosting candidates to give the show a little more zest.

If you have any questions or comments about the site, you can always email me at greenhausrecords@gmail.com or Twitter is always a good way to drop me a line. Hope you all are liking the changes so far.

Back by Popular Demand: Patio Essentials! (and Site Update Info)

As the weekend winds down, I figured that I'd re-post the wildly popular Patio Essentials CD that I get repeated requests for. I've also added my Samba-like house mix that I threw on to get a good patio party going. This post is more the Chillout peeps who love their house soulful and smooth. I've also been receiving requests for the my 'Askesian Chillout CD' and I'm going to have that up for you guys tomorrow. Remember, the Patio Essentials CD is very exclusive and I haven't had an update since the Samba mix so be sure to keep safe in your collection.

I would also like to drop a quick note about some updates that I'm going to be making to both the show and the site. First, I'm going to change the look so that it fills up the screen a bit, add some pictures and feature best of the best content featured on other blog sites that I have linked on the side. The increased attention to the site has inspired me to take the site to the next level and I can't wait to start rolling out the changes next week. I wish I could add more stuff in quicker but it's already starting to become quite busy. I want to make this site easy to navigate while giving almost daily content. As for the DU8SHOW itself, I couldn't be any happier with how it's progressing. I'm hard at work with Episode 30 and the format of the show will change slightly as well. So thanks again for all of the support and spread the word as much as you can and get as many people here to see what a great site it is. See you guys tomorrow, Cheers!

DU8SHOW pres. Diplomacy Vol. 8! - Club Essentials in tha Haus!

Hey everyone, hope you guys are having a great weekend. I have a special set of mixes today that you'll definitely want for keeps in your collection. The Diplomacy Sets were basically a collection of CD sets which I made for my friends who worked in retail. They loved the sets because they were clubby enough to thump on their system but wasn't all that hardcore. Volume 8 came with 3 CDs - Original Set, The Clandestine Mix, and The Definitive Mix and was the last of the CD sets before I exclusively went to MP3 for the blogs. It still has it's applications for some retail stores but listening over it I realized that it's great for a long ride home from work (stuck in traffic) and it's definitely great for those with MP3 players who want something for the subway ride home.

I personally used these mixes for when I was out because they just had a great set of funky and latin house tracks which were usually the pick of the crop as far as my mixes went. Most of the tracks are pretty much commercial and I'm sure you'll love them. I have a few more mixes that I'm going to post later on today so stay tuned for that. Enjoy!

This Week DU8SHOW goes Electro!

Well it's Tuesday just back from long weekend and this week is going to be great for the techheads out there as I'm going to be featuring Electro ALL WEEK LONG! I'm going to take this opportunity to post some mixes with newer songs later on this week but to kickstart the week, I'm going to be featuring two mixes from the archive: DU8SHOW Episode 17 (Main Mix) and a mini-set called Minimal Superstar. It's pretty much standard as Electro goes with some great tracks to keep the blood pumping and quick mixing. Keep checking back for more great diplomatico Mixes!

diplomatico Limited Edition: The Prada Mix (Black Edition)

I only do four of these a year and it’s time for the next entry into one of my favorite set of mixes. The Prada Mix is great played very loud, either in a club or a yacht – whatever works for you. Yeah, the name’s ridiculous but guess what? People end up loving it in secret and tend to weep when they lose the CD’s in their car. I get the emails about it all the time. These CDs are more than just great house tracks. It’s the mix that you wind up listening to and thinking about past lovers and stuff. It’s a good deal of why house music is so different and the way we all love it is pretty much the same. It makes you feel everything while on anything. The tracklist is all laid out and it’s consistently funky and brings in the nicely flowing melodies. I’ve included vocals with some tracks but I’m also doing service to those who want to dance. Keep this mix tucked away safely in your collection and if you put it on CD, make sure NO ONE takes it from you – yes, it’s that serious. Enjoy!

P.S. I've released a press statement for anyone who is interesting in wanting to know more about us and what we do here.

DU8SHOW Episode 28 (Main Set) with the Madonna Megamix!

It's going to be a great week for those just joining us as I'm releasing Episode 28 of the DU8SHOW with a treat; the wildly popular Madonna Megamix (House Version). I spun everything with a little latin flavour and smooth soulful vocals towards the end which I know will have you dancing in sheer delight. It's a very nice set representative of the club sets that I usually play but textbook for the show as most of the regulars already know. The Madonna Megamix was a gem in itself featuring the house remixes of a bunch of great Madonna songs which might possibly be a fan's keeper for their music collection.

Keep the feedback coming and I'm going to be posting more mixes from the archive as per the requests I've been getting for the past two weeks. Thanks and keep listening!
