Zoom zoom Zoom,

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.....

Love all around

Zoom zoom Zoom Yall,

It's been over a month since I posted a set ....for your "listening only" Pleasure........>) Consider....as I record almost everything now....and with the Re-pet-ta-tive nature of the dance music Beast being what it IS.....that it would most likely bore you to tears shifting through it all....SO...by the time I Do post a set....at Least it has new music on it. and Buddy..let me say now.....there is some Fierceness to be had....."I Make the Beat go Boom Papi"....(indeeeed).

So This time.....I'm posting Two sets....They are both from Different Friday nights....incase you hear a same song or two on them, that's why.....But they are also both recorded during Peak night....from about midnight to two....in this case, we close at three. So here....If you can imagine....this bar is Packed....with a sexy, mostly shirtless "rubbin' on it" crowd....and If I Hook them just right.....they stay till the lights come on...>)

We'll be calling These sets.....:"Cocktailed, Bumped, Groped and Beat"....and knowing this place....it was probably Scandalous..... Gotta give 'em Something to talk about....It's Why I leave the house....hehe.

Here's some hypeness for you....On April 29th...I'm going to get to Play a crowd that Looks like That....at a Real dance club.....Coliseum...Fort Lauderdale.
BE ....There.....they Will be talking....trust.

Till then.....unless there Needs to be some Herbicidal to Report.....I look Forward to seeing YOU..."CockTailed, Bumped, Groped and Beat DOWN"....on My dance floor.....It's How we Do it.

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.
Love All Around

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.

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.

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.

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

Give a Bitch 15 records.....the Herbicidal 13

Here's a party idea for ya, Listen Here

I've always said.....Give different DJ's the Same records and, no matter what, they will Always play them differently

I know this to be true as it turns out some of my best friends are DJs, and we proved the point by haveing a little party...>). They started this little party game they called, "Give a Bitch 15 Records". This is where each DJ wanting to play, gets to pull 5 records (has to be Vinyl) from the record collection of the Host DJ, this time being John Alvarado. Records that we personally would want to play in a mix. The choices can be Anything, Any Style. After we have each pulled 5 trax.....we each get to pick one of the 20 to take Out of the mix, I think we let the host pull 2 trax to bring the total number of records to 15. Final selection done....we each have to record a mix using the same 15 records. We each get 10 minutes before you hit record....to familiarize ourselves with the records and various mixes to choose from. .....Probably records that you don't know...or mixes you haven't heard, or wouldn't normally play yourself. We Have to use at Least 12 of the 15 records in the mix. You can start the mix with or within any track, as long as at the end you've at least played 12 of the 15. "Give a Bitch 15 Records".

The host DJ was John A., with myself, CJ B and Kevin D. I went first, playing on a sound system that I didn't know. Recording with CD Architect. Two of the records I play in my sets, the others I had never heard, and everybody that stepped up record that night, at the time familiarize.....said the same thing....."How DID we pick this set? None of these records match."....>). This is My set of the "Give a Bitch 15 Records" (December 2005),
I call it..... The Herbicidal 13.
