Party for the Weekend - DU8SHOW Episode 14 (Electro Set)!

Red Carnaval by Cheboboh (deviantart.com)

Electro-heads, get ready for the DU8SHOW Episode 14 lined with some great high-energy club tracks to move your waist for the weekend.  It's been a while since I threw down some Electro and today is going to be a special treat.

Starting the mix is an amazing Calvin Harris tune going by the name of Colors.  Then, we start up with MSTRKRFT's Street Justice rework, Data's amazing Aerius Light (picked from Konami's Pro Evolution Soccer 2011), Deadmau5's dirty electro rub of Afterhours featuring some naughty talk from Melleefresh, a Gabriel Castellon edit of a Jorengsen tune called Dadadisco, an NVG remix of a Thomas Gold and Erik Smax track called House Arrest, and rework of an old disco song called Sunshine Day by the Bodybangers.

Other notable artists and remixers include Far Too Loud, Wolfgang Gartner, Discount Rhinos, Porter Robinson, Roman Pushkin, Spencer and Hill, and finally, I had to end it off with a little old-school re-rubbing of the classic house hit, Diamond Life feat. Julie McKnight ignited with an epic Prydz instrumental that'll sure to close the mix off right.

Enjoy this mix for an exciting upcoming and stay tuned as I'm going to be announcing some big changes coming to both the DU8SHOW Podcast as well as the blog.  Enjoy!

Latin House Jam: the DU8SHOW Podcast Episode 12 - Legacy Set!

Beyond_Beautiful_by_Silent_Colour (deviantart.com)

Hey House Lovers, as the long weekend comes to a close, I've come to bring you a special set with some amazing house tracks that are sure to get you moving for the next long while.  Legacy Sets don't come around all that often but when they do, they are in great demand and they're always keepers.  Today's mix is no exception.

Some of the tracks I had to dig deep down inside the archive to put together but it didn't take very long before everything was mixed up and sounding like heaven!  I'm bringing some interesting old-skool Latin-house tracks like Afro-Cube's Sugar Cane; Bajo Mix, A Mijangos Latin House mix of Joe Arroyo's La Toruga, Fiasco's Las Mujeres (Salsa fans should recognize this one), a crazy Axwell remix of Louie Vega's Dance Ritual, DJ Sneak's bread-and-butter classic beats with Salsa Elektrika, as well as two sweet Yoruba Mixes of Ben Westbeech's So Good Today and Bah Samba's Tired Lil' One.

In addition, I also had to bring in a great classic house track by Robert Owens mixed by Filsonik called Deep Down; really nice tune. In closing, I threw in a beautiful retro track by Pamela Joy called Think Fast as a cooldown with infectious vocals.

This set is sure to please and make you move.  Diplomatico plays the best in house with the DU8SHOW Podcast so stay tuned throughout the summer we will be releasing bringing new sets as well as re-posts of previously popular Episodes.  Enjoy!

Party for the Weekend: the DU8SHOW Podcast Episode 11's Opening and Main Sets!

Meant_to_dance__by_talondalus (deviantart.com)

Hey everyone, I hope everyone is having a great weekend because it's going to get a lot better.  Today, I'm dropping both the opening and main sets for the DU8SHOW's 11th Podcast.  It's a bread-and-butter two-parter that has a beautiful mix of tracks throughout.

While the opening set is great for texture at the beginning of the night, the main set has a mix of truly nice house vocally tracks but with a dash of deep house elements.  Remixes come in the way of Pepe Braddock, Smokin' Beats, Yoruba, and Soul Minority.  The one track that I put at the very end is a long-time favorite by Arvid with Ernesto (from Ernesto VS Sebastian) called 'Try'.  It's a beautiful track remixed by Landshark who touches the track with a nice afterhours vibe to it.

All around great sets, easy listening.  I'm already hard at work with the offerings for Episode 12 which is sure to please.  I'd like to take this opportunity to thank the visitors from all over the world showing their support.  I really and truly appreciate it and I'd like to give a shout out to all the DU8SHOW fans listening in Belgium, United States, Brazil, France, Germany, Italy, Costa Rica, Peru, Egypt, Greece, Japan and Singapore!

DU8SHOW Exclusives: Underground Sessions Sets!

New sets in this week with a nice mix of everything house and electro.  Underground sets are usually representative of the variety featured in my live sets so mashups are likely.  Pushing vocals to the max and wresting the heavy electro synth lines make for a nice vibe as electro is hardly played like this anymore.  Sorry, they're a little late to the party but that's only because there are more mixes coming in his week! Enjoy.

Anniversary Show: DU8SHOW Episode 50 (Opening Set)!

Beautiful Woman by sadbab (deviantart.com)

Hello everyone, today I'm posting up the opening set for the anniversary edition of the DU8SHOW podcast. There will be two more sets that will be posted throughout the week. Let's begin:



In the past year, I've built both a blog and a podcast out of a simply formula; diplomatico spinning the best in house music, in a simple format with no MCing or over-wrought ads for those who are fans of the genre. The concept was built off of a previous blog which I started on Opera called 'diplomatico - spinning the best in house' and then making it into a music podcast on Blogger.

Over the course of a few months, it started to gain a larger audience which inspired me to expand on the site's design to include some beautiful art from deviantart.com and to start syndicating the show on other music blogs and internet radio shows - the latest being DJ Medieval's Alchemy Sessions 010.

The DU8SHOW quickly became a fan favorite and soon started receiving rave reviews, an 8.0 rating on Blogged, and attracted hundreds of follows via Twitter, 2000+ followers going strong. Today, I present one of the first of three sets for Episode 50, a milestone that was the product of years of DJing to build on the same simple winning formula. And we're not done yet.

Today, I'm officially announcing that there are some ambitious projects to be arriving in the coming months that will built on the podcast and be featured on a new website that I'm building (currently in Alpha-stage right now) and will be previewed in the coming weeks. I will also be 'resetting' the podcast for this new project but a complete back catalogue as well as full DVD of the best shows will be available on BitTorrent.

I'm pleased to bring you the opening set and I would like to thank all those who continue to support us. The DU8SHOW is going to be bigger and better throughout the summer and into fall and I can't wait to bring another 50 episodes of the best house music in the world. The people have spoken, DU8SHOW is one of the best up-and-coming house music podcasts around and soon, I will be bringing my live performances and more special mixes onto the blog as well. Stay tuned!

Party for the Weekend! DU8SHOW Episode 49 (Funky Essentials Mix)!

Harlequin by bazpringle (deviantart.com)

Hey everyone, it’s Friday and it’s time for the lead-up to our first year anniversary here at the DU8SHOW and today I have a private essential mix featuring some beautiful club music starting with some funky house and then going into some electro-infused tribal to give a little bump in the sound. There is no playlist for this set but there are a couple of familiar favourites like some Deep Dish, Paul Johnson, Midnight Society, Gregor Salto, Cajmere Wray, Mario OchoA as well as Peter Gelderblom and Renes Ames with some added surprises.

To lay out some plans for the upcoming episode of DU8SHOW, we are going to be bringing the 50th Episode in with a bang with two special mixed sets including some links to Torrents that will have a complete back catalogue of the DU8SHOW and special edition mixes that I’ve made in the past three years. While I’ve posted a great deal of mixes over the past year and that might seem like a lot, there are a lot of sets that people have missed out on because of Sendspace’s limits on how long files are hosted and therefore the Torrent strategy is a welcome feature of the DU8SHOW blog that will give everyone a way to check out some of the best mixes in the archive. This and more coming up in the next couple of days. Enjoy!

Electro Hits in the Mix: DU8SHOW Episode 47 (Elemental Club Mix)!

Hey everyone, March and spring is upon us and for the first show of the month, we have DU8SHOW Episode 47 – The Elemental Club Mix. We have some upbeat electro club bangers to have you dancing your butt off.

First we have a revisiting of an old techno track called Sweet Dreams remixed by Chris Ortega and Thomas Gold by Recover, Funkagenda’s rework of Seamus and Haji’s Last Night A DJ Saved My Life, a rare Cedric Gervais Ibiza remix of This Is Miami which turn Sander Kleinenberg into a megastar and then a crazy Harry Choo Choo Romero mixup of Morillo’s Waiting in the Darkness. Then, I changed it up with Bodyrox’s breakthough smash-hit Yeah Yeah by way of the masters of Full Intention, a GnR mash-up of Welcome to the Jungle by Dirty Funker, a fairly new track by Ralph Falcon and a colab with Charlie Solana with Show, one of my personal favourites by Noir with All About House Music and lastly, Emma Hewitt vocals an amazing club track called Carry Me Away produced by one of the industry’s finest; Chris Lake.

As part of the Electro Sessions compilation, you must keep this mix in your party collection for when you want to have some great club tracks to listen to. Keep posted for more of the best in house by diplomatico with the DU8SHOW Podcast! Enjoy!

diplomatico brings the heat, Latin style: DU8SHOW Episode 46 (Latina Heat Club Set)!

Hey everyone, it’s time for Episode 46 of the DU8SHOW and following up Friday’s Designer Set, I’ve done another great latin house set that will sure to keep you dancing non-stop. The Latina Heat Club Set is one of my marquee latin house sets which those who have heard me live know all too well as I’ve included that absolute essentials that should be played in a club to get the night started and well into the beginning of the pick-up for electro or even tribal.

This set includes some well known tracks including a dance remix of Aventura’s Obsession, the Sergio Flores remix of Yves LaRock’s hit Zookey and Armand van Helden’s Entre Mi Casa. Other tracks that might garner some attention would be a Major Boy’s gem called Panamerica and Barillas’ Andale giving the latin house vibe with some degree of authority. Rounding off the mix is a rare Afrika System track called Anikanao, a way-back playback house version of Lambada and of course we can’t forget the classic house smash-hit Shake It from Jark and Prongo from the yellow vinyl we DJs all remember. Yes, mine’s still scratched to hell.

I’m pleased to bring you these great latin house sets and they truly are lost gems as Electro has taken over and going above and beyond everything in the scene today. But those who know what to start the night off with, especially on a boat party or patio, will go with the latin house essentials and these are the tracks that’ll sure please the crowd, guaranteed. Enjoy!
