Now....It IS White party....and we all know how Legend some of these parties can be....I've been to quite a few of them over the years myself......and the usual dress is to think White....But this IS a leather MASKED ball....and I don't know about most of you ...but all my leather is grey and black....Which is all good....we Love Men in black....rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. SO....White party in mind....accessorize in white....layer in white....but THINK "Darker Shade of White"....Sexy white....and MASK...give sexy mystique. Let's make the walls glisten in white sweat........RRRRRRR. and THAT's the way we do it....and THAT's the party they will talk about for years....so Be creative.

It's all good fun in the name of a good cause. Let's unite in that cause....VOTE the week before....Hold your head up high....and dance like there is nobody in the world watching you.

Get your tickets online at www.whiteparty.org and I will see You there.

What Is Sleaze music anyway???

Play/Download "This is a Herbicidal Come-Down"

Ponder This...

There's been some very nice references made by some very nice people of late ....mostly relating to beautiful club experiences of years past....about how the music over the course of a night, sometimes longer.....drove emotions high, and low....about, how the music would energize, and sometimes, breakdown to allow you to breathe for a bit... slow you down just enough, so you could just, let, go....when you stopped thinking about hearing That song as your favorite.....and started "Hearing" the chord changes,
the breath in the melody line, the Bassline groove, or whatever else drives the drums.

So I'm guessin' some of this is because we just don't get the experience enough lately. I don't even get to play it enough....seems I have to beat the floor with drums most of the time....I'm easily distracted though, you know.....and I like me some hard too....but on This occasion....I, having all this talk about classic "Handwaver", "Saintly" music...dug on my "Wall 'O Vinyl" for more than a few of them ....and on this, Thursday of nights....and ok, I have to admit....After a mildly entertaining, local club "Contest", which ran late, to about 45 minutes before close, I decided to break out the Shirley Bassey, a la Propellerheads, and start the journey down to close.....it was fun....the people that were there, mostly Got it, the boss liked it because of the extra change.....and the crowd stayed till about 3:20. So after giving it a couple of sexy re-listens....I have to let this one go. I think that every track is a classic in it's own time...Some are brand new....some are old....but together....tempo and key match aside....the program blend makes them all work. Now I only wish I'd had more time ...to "Stretch out" even more. Next time will be different.....They all are.

Word of reassurance....Most of what I play is hard beated....Tribal, Electro, Italian, German, French, all over....so next p'cast will be Beat .....Trust me. Meantime...listen to this after you come home....not before you go out....Like I tell them.....You have to Know what Down is ...before you know what Up is. Keep your head to the sky...

Love all around

All the right ingredients.... have been added together ...so when the crowd is " 'aving It"....the place goes Off. The sound is clean....means it's powered correctly....rrrrrrrrrRRRRRRRrrrr....It's a Dancers club...they let you Dance on Everything....The flow around the room, the patio, the "Salsa" room....the "Lounge" is flawless....everything is a walkaround....so "Runway" is Given. But the best thing....about the "Lounge"....is the DJ booth....Best seat in the house...people flowing in front and coming In behind you.....The Best sound....nice monitors...but, you're standing in Front of, and on Top of, the house sound....."I make the beats go Boom papi"....and you're surRounded....by Sexy bodies flowing all around you with room in the booth for a couple of 'em to visit, which I love too. Hold on, it gets Better.....Turns out that this coming Sunday....the 22nd....that I....am going to be your DJ du jour....in the booth, fabuloso....but now... here's the hook. YOU ....have to be there too....because, if it's us together....each of us in his own little space....workin' it....rubbin' the friction between them....the dancers...the bartenders....the drag....The DJ....the "Lounge"....Voila....the Magic... and That will be talked about for years....ok, weeks, days, hours, but moments...to come. [sly] But We were There....So This Sunday...my little Sexy 4/4 bunnies....Come out with me, to the VooDoo Lounge....and let's give 'em something to talk about....IT could, be scandalous....Hold, That thought.....Hope to see you and the "posse" on the Floor. Tell somebody loud.

How I Come Up...

Play/Download "The Way I Come Up"

House Heads Arise!

As I have said before....Lately...I Try to record everything....which also includes listening to it, which is a job in itself. Annnnnd...as I have said before....I don't post it all because it would just be redundant....week to week. Annnnnd....There are so many sets to listen to....A lot of them Just Don't Hit me enough to say....Oh ...I want to hear that again. Annnd....If you've been reading all along.....you might remember that I have listed a few DJs that have influenced the way that I play. One of those being DJ Buc from Atlanta.

I had known Buc from the day when he worked for Steve Burman at the record store....and when he would play "Sleaze'" morning parties for him....called "Clan of the Handwavers"....during a time when you could play for hours at BELOW 120 BPMs...and people would Dance to it.....can you imagine ....how times change. Annnnnd....if you remember....I have mentioned that I Love to "Come Up" at the beginning of the night....and don't always get the chance. On this particular night....I went in the club ....feeling in a particular Buc-ian mood....and though the BPMs aren't slow....I think the mood of the night was set by that feeling. It's a set that I find myself listening to over and over and therefore feel it Needs to be the podcast at this time.

Also....know that this set represents my love for great vocals....sexy poolside beats...and I could play like this, and have....for hours. It Can go even deeper....imagine.

On that note.....enjoy the set....let me know if you "Get It." Not to worry....I Still Beat them....and I love that too....but there's a time and place for it all....so if you're out....and I'm starting here.....be patient....I'll get you there.....It's ALL about the Journey....Thanks Buc for teaching me that. ...and to all the other "Journey” DJs out there.....Keep Your Head to the Sky....Hands Waving.

Love All Around
Herbie

PS....All that "Annnnd" business.....is taken from "The Bar" by Robert Ashley....a Legendary piece of music on "Lovely" records. If you should have the notion. (I have the vinyl ANNND the CD, wagwagwagwag>

Chart Toppings for Beat Aliens

Helloooo
I figure it's been a little over due....me giving up some of the ingredients to the Herbicidal Sexualness....and the stuff I use to serve it....so ...for all you Beat Freaks that enjoy searching out some of these finer slices of musical tasties....here's a few of the titles that have been tweakin' my main nerve lately. Again...it's only a number....it's all in how you spluge them together that turns the crowd into a head bobbin', booty grindin', ball of mashed flesh....sounds durty...but it's kinda what it does to me on a good night...so here you 'ave it.

1. No Dolls "Nothing Like the Original" all
2. Kathy Brown "Get Another Love"
3. Superchumbo feat. Kartherine Ellis "Be My Dog" orig
4. Fergie "London Bridge"
5. Trick n Kubic feat Valeska "Easy" JCA
6. Mike Mucci "On and On" all
7. The Absolute "There Will Come A Day" Mark Picchotti rmx
8. Jason Hates Jazz "Pray For Love" Chus and Penn
9. Ceevox "Love Is" Peter Presta
10. Benny Maze "Visual Source"
11. Jerome Isma-Ac "Miami Essentials" dub
12. MIDI n Mowree feat. SoulXpres "Burnin"
13. Micha Daniels "Take Me Higher" all
14. Dino V "No More Pain" dub
15. Roger Sanchez "Lost" Alyson Calagna mix
16, G Club feat Haze "Faith" all

Now don't forget to look at all my past charts here ....add them to this because a lot of them are still in the box and still in rotation....also, I constantly dig the "Wall" to pull out classics....and I never forget that I have a crowd, so I always play for them....so here's a couple of 'most requested’.
Micheal M "Dear Diary"
Justin Timberfuck "Sexy Back" (I just like Dean's work)
Suzanne Palmer "Keep the Faith"
And the list goes ...On and On....constantly changing....always depending on the crowd, the venue, the theme, the night, the moon, my head, who's yellin' and who'sshakin'.
So I hope you'll also listen to a podcast or two...to see what else is in there that was turning the night at that time....and I hope that you'll seek me out at the clubs...and maybe even tell somebody ....'cause I Need to play Twilo.

Meantime....feel the love all around you.

Distracted by Mozart.....how did That happen??

Play/Download Ramrod Sleaze

HELLO all you 4/4 Beasts,

Over time.....I have prided myself....on having a broad taste in music....most of it from my piano background....so, can you imagine....that when I'm home...mostly....I listen to Music.Got to love it.....So....for the last hour...I've been mad glued to a performance of the Mostly Mozart Festival...live from Lincoln Center....an incredible Piano concerto....and of all things....Variations on Twinkle Twinkle Litte Star.....hehehe....It was incredible...So let me encourage you All ...to open your musical horizons Anytime you get the chance....and Particularly if you get a chance to see good Live music.

Here's a heads up for one such occasion....IF you live in the south Florida area.....on November 1st...is Chick Corea (piano) duet with Gary Burton (Vibes)....at the Broward center....Not to be missed...Trust me...and say hi if you run into us there.

So whatever your tastes...and since All music is related ....and exposure to other types of music will only serve to make you a better DJ, musician, listener, humanitarian....and as is the reason you all read my rants anyway.....we all love music that moves us....so don't be afraid if you find yourself moved by classical music....you may just be learning to breathe all over again....and then.. the next time you find yourself caught up in the endurance of a packed dance-floor....you just might find that the way you listen to what the DJ is giving you ...Moves you in ways it didn't before.

I got this great new toy...by Archos....it's actually a camcorder....but it allows me to record....in Waveform....all my sets....for me mostly to listen and see what stays and plays...or what gets pulled from the bag...so...when I post a set up for your listening approval...it's usually because I feel that it's a good representation of the way it's coming out....and also a set of tunes that you may not have heard to death....or that could turn out to be your new faves.....but; I always play for my crowd....so you will hear some "Big" records of the time....everything in it's place....sort of a trick I'm playin' on ya ....Yep...those are the hooks....the tools if you will....to get you to the Herbicidal ....BOING.

Now's when I invite all you 4/4 beasts to listen to My new set of late...It's definitely late night peak-time energy... This is the way it gets when they come by the booth and tell me it's Herbicidal.....when they tell me that they've been trying to leave the club....but haven't been able to reach the door....course I think it's just that by this time ....they are too hooked on the pheromone overload that is making Me give it to 'em this way in the first place.... wagwagwagwag.... So it's true....if you rub on it....IT MOVES. Hope this set helps you move yours.....wagwagwag.

See you in the clubs ....say hi when you see me in the booth.

Love all around

As Herbie's world spins madly out of control....what with Pride and Twilo opening and all....and well, here you go....I actually DID call Madonna ....and I left a very nice message about how Much I would appreciate it if she would just come by Voodoo this Sunday during T-Dance for a look see....no pressure though...I mean she's already in town for her concert tour ...and I DO play her songs....>) She has a Really nice phone message, so I'm sure she's just as nice in person....and I told her she wouldn't have to pay the cover ..or for drinks....and I told her she could hang with me in the DJ booth....and that maybe, while she was there, that we could go over the lyrics of the new song I'm writing for her....Oh and I told her that you are all such big fans that you promised that you'd all be stomping the dance floor into powder, Hands to Heaven, All night long just waiting for the next chance to dance to her non-stop medley of hits. Legendary.

AND....IF That wasn't enough....PINK is in concert Monday night at Revolution...and I also called her (again leaving a Really, really nice message) and hinted that it would be nice if she came by to give away free tickets for the performance. Really. Now I'm not going to promise....but Maybe....If we can catch them both in a "mood"....then Maybe... Madonna ...and Pink....well you just use your imagination...>0...Scandal indeed.

Sound too good to be true....I think not...It Could happen...Really...At the Voodoo Lounge This Sunday....July 23rd...from 5 to 11 pm....BE There and Watch it all unfold, before you have to hear about it in the news. Be sure and bring something to have autographed, Just in case.

Cherry in your whiskey sour....I'm going to be the DJ this Sunday....Fierceness Will prevail....>0....and I look forward to seeing you all on the floor.....stop by the booth and say hi to me....and you know who.

Love all around

VooDoo in July

Dear Hype Fairy,

Grant me my three wishes....please. As this coming Sunday, July 9th, I've been selected, by Gary Santis, to DJ the infamous Babylon T-dance at Voodoo Lounge....the full moon coming on the horizon that makes my tail wag...I think I see a pattern here...>) ...and So...I'd like for YOU to "Make it Happen".

To do this you need to put the call out to All the Sexy humpin' and bumpin' half nekidness that you always bring me....you know...so we can show off to the newbies just how we...
"Do IT"...the Herbicidal way. Then give them All, that head bobbin', butt bumpin' sexy rubbin' on it, hands in the air, groove infection....sorta like when Missy E hits the stage. Most of all, share with us ALL, the spirit of Love, for the music and each other, that will ultimately drive the night.

Oh yeah...You'll need the details.....That's THIS Sunday...July 9th...for the Babylon T-Dance at the Voodoo Lounge ....downtown Fort Lauderdale FL.....from 5pm to 11pm....come early for free drinks and Extra Groove.

You've never let me down yet....thank you very much....so I'm really looking forward to turning it out....throwin' down some voodoo on the Voodoo. My word to the rest of you ....Believe in the Hype Fairy....and come out for Me and see for yourself....you Won't be disappointed....I promise. Be sure to stop by the DJ booth and say "Hi'.

See you on the dancefloor.
Love all around

I Put A Spell On Voodoo

Think the blues...>)

EVERY TIME I walk into the Voodoo Lounge to DJ.....there is One song that comes to my mind. It's a blues standard of sorts.....called "I Put A Spell On You"....the original was done by Screamin' Jay Hawkins....I think my fave version is by the Creedence Clearwater Revival....great band back in the day.....>)....nonetheless....I sing it in my head ....Every Time Partly being to the notion that the club is called The Voodoo Lounge.....how New Orleans......hehehe.

Just a bit of trivia that might put You in a Spell.....At Voodoo.....as I Intend to put ON some Voodoo....and Cast My spell on the dance floor the only way that is Proper Herbicidal.
Oooga Booga...and all That.

I'm diggin' the music....I'm diggin' the Vibe.....It's great to see how people Make certain clubs their Own.....and That's how "Scenes" get started.....So Come out my peeps....let's show 'em just how to throw the Voodoo Down. I'm there for you .....I'm bringin' it....but even with My super-groove DJ powers.....I need YOU to Make the Scene.....to bump the room....So....This Sunday....June 25th....for Babylon Tea....Bring IT. We'll give 'em something to talk about, for a while.

Love All Around

OK,....I can't tell a lie....This month, has been a Really uplifting spirit boost to my soul. Seems that the universe has surrounded me with some Very nice people....Some love me for different reasons .....but they Love me....>0....and They, in their own "universes"....are all very talented and creative people....and I Love them all....and Thank them from my heart. A Lot of nice things have been said....but as I've Finally seen in myself....As My heart shines.....it allows their's to shine too. Thanks for letting Herbie BE.

Meantime....I've also gotten to play at some of south Florida's most prestigious nightclubs....and if crowd reaction is gauge enough to go by....I think I may be able to get reprise appearance. Keep in mind....I resident DJ every week at one club, where I am able to get away with taking a few more "chances"....then, I find myself playing for a dance floor in these rooms with real sound....and it's a Very different animal....Rrrrrrrrrrrr.....and I find myself serving different energy....whether it be more vocals...more anthems....shorter mixes....pitching things up / down....mixing through the breakdowns...."Reading' the crowd.....whatever it is at the moment that works....it's the same music....out to you with a twist.....the Herbicidal Twist....>)

This set came out of me at the Voodoo Lounge....the night After I'd played the Coliseum....whew....y’all try to keep up ok...so this is day four.....tail still waggin' though....hehehe. So if you listen this set ....it's more "T-dance"....what EVER that means to you ....guess you'll Just have to Be there the next time....and see for yourself.

As I tell most people who come up to talk to me....The Music.....It's All good....it's Just how you get 'em there. Give 'em Something to talk about....it's Why I leave the house.
Enjoy the ride.....I Did.

Love all around

Coliseum.....was Rocked!!!!

Play/Download MP3

This "Peak night" set, was taken from the second night that I got to play the big room....and My tail is Still wagging.....wagwagwagwag....>) The night seems to have been a reasonable "Taste" as to "How I give it"....or at least what I think I would dance to in a big room; pulling choons from my crates at least. Drop a few Herbicidal Choice Classics for a dance floor Hug....give the predictable Anthem for pull....Try to keep things pitched up a notch or two for energy....and through the night, Try to win New fans to the Herbicidal Flava. I Think a packed dance floor till about 4am, could convince a fan or two to come back....>0

So, Here....for all you wonderful head bobbin', body groovin', (and Grindin'....>) Glitterati that came out to feel me....this sets for You. Also, for all you, who by distance, just couldn't fake the appearance....and the ones who Should've, but Didn't....This...is a "taste" of what they got at the Coliseum on a Very Full Moon night in Fort Lauderdale in May....Hope you'll be there the next time it happens...>) Till then. It's all about the love of music and dancing....See you on the floor soon.....

Herbicidal Chartness WMC 06

I was Seen....and Had this past Winter Music Conference....as always it was over the top and way too much fun....(Only dealing with the positive side here...>).!..The Real thing about WMC every year though.....Is that it seems to "Inspire" me. Being out in the clubs and Always haveing somebody on the decks that is, on some level of competence, incredible....and Always on their best behavior....music wise....I am inevitably turned onto a ton of new choons....even new styles. So it turns out that in the following weeks....the Next couple of weeks that I'm spinning in the club.....I Too....am on My best behavior....>0. I always try to turn new music....but hearing all these world-class DJ's....it seems to come out a little different. And....I am always privy to new, pre-release, promos, which is a privilege and honor to know that I'm one of the first to debut a record. That being the case....I represent where props are due.....SO.....Here's the chart. When you see me in the booth....Always stop by and say hi....see you on the floor.

My legs are falling off....>)...??

Hi World

As in ....When Worlds Collide......because for the last few days...and the next few...They Have....and, We, the people of earth.... are being controlled and entertained by the insanity happening in Miami....that being the annual Winter Music Conference. Add to That madness all of the Spring Breakers.....and Let the Insanity Commence. Indeed. Well, Conference being what it is....or has turned into...is an animal all to itself. It's not what it was....and never will be again....but it Has truly maintained it's world class DJ Status.....and has grown into one of the craziest club, and party sponsored events, in any city, anywhere in the world. THE place to be right Now. As anybody who attends knows,.. that it is impossible to do it All....as there is just Too much to do....literally a wicked DJ line up at every club...pool...and restaurant that has a room for it. Just the energy on the street is enough to propel you from the last event to the next. I think my legs are going to fall off at the hip....and it's not over yet. Wayne and I have been down a couple of nights....and it's really fun rubbing the elbows of the other DJ's and producers, running into old friends from past WMC's. Mostly keeping your ears open to hear what the new hottie hotties are....maybe even getting the promo..>)
It's a DJ thang....we're insatiable....ok I am.

My suggestion....if you are reading this in time.....is to get your butt down to Miami Beach...and go to Something....BE There...Feel the love that all these people bring to their art. While you're there....give them something to talk about. Share something with somebody. BE @ Winter Music Conference 2006. I AM.

See you on the dance floor.

(Big Note.....Keep in mind here that I am playing to a packed room of half nekid Men with NO dancefloor...so I Don't have to play all the Top 40ness that I might have to play were I playing a real dancefloor.)

Part two here is some wicked peak night though. The boys must have been having ME that night. Tease that they are. Sometime they just pull it out of me. This would be my, shall we say, most cohesive set of this night. Less chances???....not sure what drove this set, but it even rocks me....(tail waggin)....>0

Part 3 will follow in the next couple of days.

Well Kids,

It's been just another super bowl lackluster game show weekends here.....well ok...with maybe more than just a little over the edge sexual innuendo led forplay to amuse some OF the thrill seeking distracted circuit boys thrown in for laughs....since we Didn't get them during the Stones set....what Were they thinking....I KNOW what WE were thinking....hehe.

I know it's been a while since the sets were flowing in.,...I have several excuses dating back to hurricane Wilma....the Christmas holiday season party extravaganzas.....Our new years eXtravaGa'nze'.....the usual "play" thrown in / On. So, as of late....thanks to my great bud Wayne.....I have been using his Mp3 recorder to record Almost Everything....and have come home from the club with some decent sets. Like I tell the peeps that get hold of my CD's....that they Don't come with the several "R" cocktails, OR the 300 Men or so that you may have been rubbing on that night, and you May hear, less the crowd noise, some of the distracted mixes that snuck by during the night.....but IF, you were there ....This, is what it sounded like, Then.

On that note, here's one from my brain....As I'm readying myself to leave for the club...I have a WALL of Vinyl that I have collected over the years.....and I Dig through it constantly to find things to play that either I think still work in the current sound of the sets....or just a "Choon" that I haven't heard in a while and think that They should hear. It Stirs things up in the mix. Turns out sometimes I take chances....sometimes they work better than others....but a Blend doesn't always matter when the next tune is Fierce, and sometimes I second guess myself.....It's ALL good.

This set up now, because I made a cover for the CD's, is "Sanctuary." I like the part one of any night because I DO take chances with the mix. More so than I do during peak night usually. (one note....those or you that have listened to some past sets....let me say....there are several "hits" that will now come out of the box, as I feel that I'VE heard them enough for a while...it's how it is....it's good for all of us, Trust). I always listen to the sets. Many reasons, mostly to see IF they stand up with multiple listenings...track selection, mix blend, key blend, on and on.

Heads up though...part one has some of my Fave tracks of all time in it. For some of you this set may sound a bit "Housey," but House Rules and that's where my heart lies...in the melody and the bassline. Give me a real chord progression and some strings ....hands in the air Heaven.

Part two here is some wicked peak night though. The boys must have been having ME that night. Tease that they are. Sometime they just pull it out of me. This would be my, shall we say, most cohesive set of this night. Less chances???....not sure what drove this set, but it even rocks me....(tail waggin)....>0

Part three comes in with the end of the "Warm Leatherette" remix and goes on from there....touching on some of my fave electro stuff at the moment....more peak night fierceness....the way we give it. (Big Note.....Keep in mind here that I am playing to a packed room of half nekid Men with NO dancefloor...so I Don't have to play all the Top 40ness that I might have to play were I playing a real dancefloor.)

That being said...I AM playing a Real club with a Real dancefloor again this coming Sunday (February 12th) at the Voodoo lounge....so you who are lucky enough to live in the paradise we call south Florida....please stop in and get some of the Herbicidal Sexualness. Please stop by the booth if you are there.....I love to visit with music fans and dancers.
Bring on the fans.....woof. There Will be a sign in request sheet ...as there has to be at least 15 requests to hear anything by Madonna. (love you Madonna, Mean it....let's do a Remix sometime soon.....I think it's my turn to be famous...rather than just IN-famous, Muah)

.....Love All Around.
See you in the clubs,
Herbie
Part 1 below. Parts 2 & 3 will follow in the next couple of days.

2006.....the chart to start all charts

HO ho....HO,
Herbie James STILL here, after one Wild and Crazy party holiday season, zoom zoom zoom....and It Has been wild....>). I can only hope that you were feeling the love that all that energy people put out there to bring us that much fun. The Clubs were packed like no other....I ended up spinning on Christmas day....and That turned out to be a Blast. Packed dance floor, lots of hands in the air. TOO MUCH FUN. Normally the release of new music at the end of the year comes in drips and drabs.....consider this your "Catch up" as I think there are Plenty of wicked tracks to bump you through the night....This chart, as most of my charts, are in no particular order...I'm sure I left out some Fiercenesses...and I Don't give out such information as to what particular mix I might be playing out of all the choices....or you too could give the "Herbicidal Treatment" and I'd have to kill you. I do my homework....you do yours....>). My sets are getting tighter and the songs are flying by faster and faster in the mix.....not quite Bad Boy Bill fast, I DO let the song play, but the overlays get longer and sometimes the breaks disappear, and who Knows what order the set will turn out on any given night....???...I start the first record and the ride starts from there. So.....Keep your Tails Waggin'....and when you see ME boppin' up in the booth ....make your way by and say High....I love when people visit....keeps things animated. Let's keep this year Sexy. This, my friend, is my first chart of the year 2006, stay with me yall.....It Will be Sexy indeed.
Love All Around.
Herbie

Be Sure and stop by the booth and say hi....I'm there for YOU. See you on the dancefloor, and hope your New Year is Sexy.

The Herbicidal Twist

Listen Here: HerbicidalTwist.mp3
Hey Yall,

Glad to see that some of you have stuck with me through the hurricane season....as it were....the BITCHES....since Every one of them that comes our way I seem to lose lots of money and time....what with being out of work and electricity....RRRRRRRRRR....but I / we ARE survivors....and will continue to "Throw Down" regardless....>) Story goes that because of those and various factors ruling my world, that I have Just recently been able to record Anything of new lately. We won't go into the gory details of what I have to do to be IN-famous....as there are Way too many circumstances controlling my every waking moment, (Harumph).

This set, appropriately named, "The Herbicidal Twist"....came out at the beginning of my Thursday night set at the Ramrod, after I had spent the early evening digging the shelves to pull out some classic tastinesses. It turned out to be a bit of a Deep Nasty set that contains some of my Fave tracks from some of my Favorite producers/remixers, Danny Teneglia, Mike Mucci (setting the stage) and some fave artists as Depeche Mode, Esthereo, etal....in less words....I LIKE IT. I even like the pitch changes between segues. Keeps 'em guessing. So, I hope you hear something that you remember and or would like to remember.

Thanks for holding out with me....and Trust....there is Lots more to come. The next "Requested" recording project will be to record a mix of what I consider my fave and most requested songs of '05.
There are many and it should turn out to be a fun set. Hold that thought.

Hope you're all having the best of the Christmas Season....and are looking forward to a healthy and sexy 2006.....I KNOW I AM. See you in the clubs.

Love all around
Herbie
