HeyHeyHeeyyy,
Herbie here....checkin' in and trying to keep you up to date as to how it's coming out these days. I'm in the clubs constantly....I spin music two nights a week (and on the occasion, Three)....every week. Then that music translates down into a twice weekly internet Radio Show on GIRL (www.gayinternetradiolive.com), So, let's face it....out of 10 plus hours of spinning a week....I can only "Post" a small portion of all the music that is played. Not that I wouldn't want to share ALL of it with you....I just wouldn't want to put that burden on you of having to listen to that much "Herbicidal" madnesses. SO....That's why I only post bits and "Taste's" of the night’s musical journey. Annnnnd.....from week to week....I just Can't play the same music over and over....as much as I'd like to play it All....it's just Not gonna happen. Whew....all that being said....
Sometimes you just have to know the source.....and that includes the room that I play in twice a week. Holds about 300 people....and gets a Very sexy "rubbin' on it" crowd, Late, almost every night. At least when I'm playing. ;-) Now I know, and exxxspecially lately, that I've been called out, on playing a Lot of vocals....’cuz you know I like to "talk" to you. This particular night was the same....just with the vocals more, uh shall we say….Spread out.....with Lots of drums in between. And Lots of Dirty drums; make for a lot of dirty drum Sex. Just the way I like 'em. Dirty...huhhuh. So Iisten, and see if this set gets your juices flowing in more ways than one. As somebody came by the booth to tell me that night....."You've caused more than a Few divorces tonight." Hey, Don't blame me, I'm just the messenger of the beats. Y’all are the ones to take it upon yourselves to play nice with each other. Wagwagwagwagwag.
Till next time....which will be soon, I promise. Keep living the high life. Keep your head to the sky....and spread some house love. And please....when you see me in the booth....stop by and say hi.
Love all around
Herbie

Vote For (the Sleazy side of) Me
Hey Hillary, and All my fave Fab Fans,It's getting to be That time of the year. An Election Year. (harumph) But this particular political pundit post....isn't about the government side.....it's about the "Sleazy" side. Yes....it's time for Fort Lauderdale's annual "Sleazy Awards."
The coveted Sleazies....that benefit local charities, are given out this year on March 10th at Bill's Filling Station in Wilton Manors. This years "Theme" is a "Sleazy Prom."....I can only imagine.??? This Is one of the most FUN "In the Biz" nights during the year. This is the 5th year anniversary...and every year the party just seems to get wilder and wilder....So....IF you live near enough to get there....I highly recommend it. And be sure and Dress for the theme....as a Lot of people "Get Into IT"...which makes it a very festive event....to say the least. Too much fun, indeed.
As you might imagine....I'm not in it to be voted Prom Queen. No, No, Noooo, No....I'm in the running...to be the "Sleaziest DJ". Now, I Thought, that everybody just Knew, that I was the Sleaziest. Hands down. But, since it's a vote...I'm going to ask you for yours. So take just a sleazy moment and Vote....for Me.
And btw....I just had a Wicked weekend set at the club....so I'm going to post a new podcast hopefully this week.
(Bribe, Bribe) Till then, Keep your heads high....and spread some musical Love.
Love....All around
Herbie

My BEloved beat bunnies,
Hope you all had a fun and safe Superbowl weekend. I know there were several testosterone driven house parties. Lots of reasons to "drop the soap", as it were. You shoulda been there, is all I'm sayin'. But during one such "Driven" house party, I was persuaded, and inspired (Rrrrrrrrrough,) to post another recent set. Seems these sort of events have the power to make you do things, if you know what I mean. Or was it the FootBall game, Go team.
So, for This short set, keep in mind, this all happens at 2:45 AM; after a whole night of Beatdown, rubbin' on IT, nastiness; and getting close to having to throw them out to the curb. Now, if you've been there early, you know that I love to "Come Up"...and then, for close, I like to "Come Down". Ease them out the door, instead of kicking them out with a last Kick Beat. "Boom, tsst, boom tsst, boom tsst, Boom." No, no, no....I mean that just leaves 'em wanting More.....I like to send them home humming the last song, or floating on a string line instead of just a beat. And…I do it for myself too. Since I've been in the booth for hours mixing beats and keeping the energy up. At the end of the night, I've shot my music load, and now I want to be musically hugged. So from breakdown to breakdown....this night anyway....I end with a few of my favorite songs. This particular Shirley Bassey song is one of THE most beautiful love song lyrics of all time, and if you can’t Feel this one; we can’t talk. It’s like I tell 'em all the time, "You have to know what Down is, before you can know what Up is." I like it all.
All that said…I've always loved DJ's who give you "Journey". I Hope, that at the end of the day, I will be counted in Those ranks. Thanks again, So much, for listening. I hope the passion shines through all my ranting. ‘Till the next time....Spread the love, and Keep your head to the sky.
Love, All around,
Herbie

B-Bang It's a New Year...let a man come in

Hello There Universe....and all youz toe-tappin', finger snappin', head bobbin', beat freaks,
I realize that it's been Way too long since you've heard word, or podcast from me. As a Lot has been going on in my life. I have been, and Am, a Very busy boy. Trust me, I'm not bored. There are some really wonderful things happening. More news as it does. And....I AM Truly blessed with having some of the best people in my life. Seems people that love music are a great place to start. Then from there, you get to meet the most grounded, talented, and connected ones to work with...and voila...Life's good. Thanks for being one of them.
Now, I realize that those of you who don't get to the club to hear me spin week to week....miss out on a whole Lot of music....as there is no Way to post it all. Much less, give you the Herbicidal "Journey" as it comes out over the period of an entire night. So, you'll just have to use this venue, as it were, to "taste" the best of. So, from post to post, I intend to try to give you some of the different "Flavors" of the night as they come out. Sometimes it might be peak night, sometimes it might be the "come down" that is the end of the night. "I like it all."
On another note, IF, you want More. I have a weekly internet Radio show twice a week....on www.gayinternetradiolive.com. It runs every Tuesday AM from 1am to 3am....and every Friday PM from 11pm to 1am (Eastern Time) That way you get a two hour sneak peak of how it comes out, IN the club, week to week. Just in case you can't get enough. Or, for you promoters out there, it's a great way to see how it comes out Live. ( P.S. I never edit my sets, except to take out last call.)
I hope that you all had a magical holiday season, and a safe transition into 2008. If this year is anything like the last, we are all in for a "bumpy" ride. Promises to be quite interesting already. Let's stay in touch. Keep your heads to the sky, and spread some love where Ever you are. It's the Only way we are going to make this work.
IF you are ever in the same room that I'm spinning....Please stop by the booth and say hi. Stay tuned, I'm not done yet.
Love all around,
Herbie

IT was Fab!!!!!!!!!

Helloooo there, Universe,
Thanksgiving has come and gone....and God Knows....I AM thankful. Everyday, I give it up. To the higher power...to my family...to my fans...to my friends...I even ask that it shows in my face and actions. But this past Thanksgiving was Very special. I was asked to spin at the Muscle Beach party during White Party week on Miami Beach. Boing. Little did I know that the day would turn out as it did. LEGENDARY! We had taken a hotel room on the beach for three days...so we didn't have to deal with travel and could just enjoy being there. The weather couldn't have been more perfect for the entire weekend. And Care Resource reported that they had record crowds at every event. VIP tickets sold Out the opening day.
The Vizcaya White Party turned out to be The most incredible Vizcaya event I have ever been to.
We had breakfast and were early to the beach to the sound of the Atlantic ocean...which brought me Right to where I needed to be.
Turns out I knew the guys setting up the sound system....and they 'Hooked It Up" with a Wicked DJ booth and sound system. Can't ask for better....thank you Brian. So the day began without a hitch. Like I said the weather was perfect all day...ending with a Full Moon Rising on the ocean...to Fireworks. My set was from 1pm, when they opened the gates, to 3pm. Three songs into my set the flood gates opened.
To tell it in the words of a friend of mine....who had arrived early across the street from the beach at the Palace Bar. He said he was going to stop in there for a few beers to get his groove on before coming over... He said he was sitting there watching the decorations blow in the breeze....and all of a sudden there was a sea of Men Flowing into the party....he said "F'' this, what are we doin' here, let's get over there. And they Did. The report is it was the fastest happening party ever seen for the beach. Maybe I do have powers. Peep the pics (www.herbiejames.com)...as you can witness the crowd I had just an hour into IT. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for all BEing there. I had a Blast. The set turned out just as I wanted....energy correct. I left Roland with a Packed floor...so I did my job. Too much fun. Short but sweet...leave 'em Wanting More.
Well I just wanted to come current as to how it went...for all of you who didn't make it. This is notice of the pictures taken...and We were Had. Ok, so were they.
I hope you all have the Best holiday season....and New Year. Let's all keep our heads to the sky...and feet to the 4/4 floor. I'm always listening and trying to amass a wicked set to throw down....so that you get the full Herbicidal, as you've come to expect. And, Always stop by the booth to say hi. Look forward to seeing you dancing soon.
Also, don't forget you can hear me on the net, twice a week, every Tuesday (Monday night) from 1am to 3am and Friday from 11pm to 1am on GIRL Radio.
Love all around,
Herbie

I'm Spinnin' tha Beach y'all....and They are Goin' to Talk.
Hellooooo there, Universe;I AM ....spinning the Beach y'all....and it's ON. I have, over my Infamous DJ career, been to, and danced at, a Lot of wonderful, over the top, parties and events. I'll tell you some of the, shall we say, juicy, incriminating stories, when we sit down together sometime. But, One of these parties always stands out in my mind, and is held close to my "party" heart. That being the party that is thrown On Miami Beach, during the White Party week of parties, the weekend (Sunday) after Thanksgiving every year. It's called the "Muscle Beach" party.
Now, Here's the Big scoop. I AM....the opening DJ for this years "Muscle Beach" party during White Party week on Miami Beach this year. How Great is That? Me, playing a party that I've always Loved. And, it's the opening slot, which is my Favorite thing in the world to do... to "Come Up." (before you get it in your head, coming up is not All I know how to do....I Will let you 'ave it, given the chance. but here, it's the up Journey.) Needless to say, I'm honored, humbled, and Very excited.
I begin the party at 1pm, and play until 3pm. I'll then turn the party over the my friend, Roland Belmares, yes the legend, and He will turn it Out until 8pm. I have been channeling this party, musically, since I found out that I would be playing it. I have put together a bag Full of beautiful Choons that I feel fit the beach. A "Saintly" combination of sexy down-tempo, to lush house, to hands in the air classic high energy. I plan to open with nothing but the sound of the Atlantic Ocean. And the only music that I have Planned for the progression of my set, are the two songs that I plan to open with. Intro to the day, if you will. To give you a chance to feel the space. A chance to take deep breathes, and to set the tone for what's to come. Think blue sky, major chord changes, positive uplifting vocals and hands in the air, ON the beach....served with loads of Universal Love that will surely stir the mixture of beats and hugs into, dare I say it again, one of the best parties of this year. So, You'll Need to BE there, song one, and we'll take it from there. I Will be "talking" to you, through the lyrics, with every song, from beginning to end....so pay attention. Smile with me. Love with me. Dance with me.
Let's talk about location. Lawd! It's Miami Beach, at 12th Street. And the staging Will be stellar, as it always is. I can just see the layout of the party before me now. "The Land Before Time" it's called this year. And trust me, it's going to be Beautiful. As this year, Johnny Chisholm, as in the famed Gay Disney, is in charge of the event. So I expect that he'll "give it" with the perfect amount of sparkle, to bring this years event to a whole new level of Beach-party-dom.
The entire production is a benefit for Care Resource. They provide care and services for those who are Living with AIDS. I don't think there could be a more noble cause to spend a beautiful day, dancing under a Miami Beach sky, with several Thousand, Sexy, Thriving on it, people...with Great music and Vibe du Jour. Let's just say...People are going to talk.
All that being said...I can't wait to have my moment in the sun, (big smile). So, if you're anywhere close, and can get to it...Do what ever you have to do, to BE there. It's going to be a great time to "be had by all." (w) Look for me and say hi. I’ll be the one with a big grin on my face...and my tail waggin’. (wagwagwagwagwag)
Ok, let me get back to work....I'm putting together a wicked Connie Francis medley for peak time....."wherrrrrreee The Boys Are....hmm mmmm mmm mmmmmmm, Someone waits for meeeeeeee."
JUST KIDDING! Good grief. (gotta love a sense of humor.)
Big Hugs 'til then.
Love all around
Herbie
p.s. Get your tickets early and save a few bucks on the door price.

A Herbal House Blend
Play/Download "A Herbal House Blend"
Hey kids:
Get your house shoes on...and please... something sexy or fierce, with taste...no boat shoes or flip-flops...(and throw Off the robe...as you'll not be needin' that either.) Then, plug in this set and get your house groove on. For this is some of my fave housenesses, past and present....Ok, it's how it came out this night at tha club. Smooth like butta, sexy beats, with a message to hug you with. So, listen to what I'm sayin' to you here. There's a Lot of great music coming out, that when it's blended with a classic, it brings back a memory or a feeling, that makes us remember a time, or a friend, that we held close or loved. Life....that's what good music does to us. It makes us live.
We all say we love music, what Ever that music is....it's with us every day of our lives. We make friends with it. We listen to the things it tells us....the feelings it has. Are you "feelin' me"? Music also has a time. Not just a tempo or a meter....but a time when we need it. We may need it when we want to be soothed, as in ambient or classical music, or....when we want to be beat down, as in lots of club music....you know who you are.
House music, to me, is a message. It's why we (and I say We, because I mean "I") want to hear it at "T" dance, the beach, the pool, the restaurant, the mall, the car....the RADIO! Does Anybody Hear me out there? It just feels Good. And, believe me, the energy is there. Cause if you have ever been to a fierce Winter Music Conference party (the Soulfuric "Friends" party for instance) featuring a competent House DJ line-up....then you've witnessed the masses of hands in the air with smiling faces singing the lyrics and screaming when every song starts, to a room full of love that this music gives. Are you listening yet?
Now, here's what it is....since I've found out that I'm the one that is going to open the incredible "Muscle Beach" party this year for White Party on Miami Beach.....I've been "channeling" that party....trying to focus the music for the beach. Trust me when I tell you....that IF you are near south Florida....and you would like to dance with a few Thousand sexy Men on Miami Beach, in a beautifully designed setting with a great sound system....then, at any cost, BE there. Because I am bringing the love with me....and you will be Feeling it. Let's just say....they are going to talk.
Meantime, Thank you for listening. Spread the love by telling somebody about my music....and how to find it. And Hey, I have a passport and a bag Full of CD's and love to travel. (big smile) So, keep your heads to the sky.
Live for the music....and let's be nice to each other. That's Life! Oob la dee,Oob la da. It Goes On!
Hope you enjoy the set.

Helloooo,
I've missed you all. Lots of things going on. It's been a fun, fun summer...and All those things seem to blur the lines into one big, giant picture...and that makes it "Life." 'Cause, Life comes at you fast. Zoom, Zoom. XXXciting stuff indeed. Annnnd, It's All tied together. One thing leads to another...one door closes...another one opens. Thank you, Very much. I Love Life...and, I hope Yours is going well as expected. Feel free to send me the details.
Now, about the music. I know, it's been a while. Like I said, things are happnin'. Slowly, but surely. Zoooooom, Zoooooom. I have a residency, every Thursday and Friday night...at a sexy little bar, (there is no dancefloor, although people Do dance)...and that, amazingly, is almost packed to the walls every night...well, at least when I'm there...(hehe). www.ramrodbar.com
This set is from the past Friday night. It may be a bit over-kill to give you the entire night (less a couple of down-tempo songs at the beginning...and, I edited out last call,) But, This is mostly how it comes out these days. And, by putting up the night....you get to see what some of my Prime Choons are...and without a repeat of songs. (For those of you getting this as a podcast, sets 2, 3, and 4 will follow throughout this week.)
Meantime, here's a big heads Up for you. I'm spinning one of the biggest and best parties in South Florida. I am opening the "Muscle Beach" party this year for White Party. Can you just see my tail waggin' now? (wagwagwagwag)
Me, On the Beach, to come UP...seems like a natural doesn't it? So, put it on the calendar! November 25th...the Sunday of Thanksgiving, on Miami Beach, from 1pm to 3pm ....followed by Roland Belmares, 3pm to 8pm. Trust me when I tell you that you do not want to miss this party. If you can in any way, BE there. Tickets are available at www.whiteparty.org. And it's all for a good cause, benefiting Care Resource.

Great Big Partys... you know we love them.

Over the years....as a DJ....I've been very privileged to play some incredible parties. Along the way, the music has evolved, along with the vibe. I've played a lot of music along the way. I've met some wonderful people, and I've danced to a lot of great DJs at these great parties. The best of them have been the sexy beach parties thrown during the "Winter" and "White" Party weeks on Miami Beach.
Since we all love a great Big party...and seeing as how I'm telling you how wonderful the beach parties are...let me give you the Big scoop. I AM the opening set DJ for this years "Muscle Beach" party during White Party week on Miami Beach this year. How great is That? Me, playing a party that I've always Loved. Needless to say, I'm honored, humbled, and Very excited. And, it's the opening slot, which is my Favorite thing in the world to do... to "Come Up."
Because I love to come Up. The music will be themed to the Beach. Think daylight, Major chord changes, positive, uplifting vocals....and loads of universal love to stir the mixture of beats and hugs into, dare I say it again, one of the best parties of the year.
It's called "Muscle Beach". It's on Miami Beach. It starts at 1pm Sunday, November 25th, until 8pm that night. I'm spinning from 1pm to 3pm...opening the day for DJ Roland Belmares, who will spin until close at 8pm. The entire production is a benefit for Care Resources. They provide care and services for those of us who are Living with AIDS. I don't think there could be a more noble cause to spend a day, dancing on the beach with several Thousand sexy people.
Great Big Parties….We Love them. This is definitely one of The parties of the year. I highly recommend that you do what it takes to BE there. A great time will be had by all. Look for me and say hi. I’ll be the one with a big grin on my face….and my tail waggin’.

It Must Be Love
Play/Download It Must Be Love Part 1.mp3
K, Men ‘n Ladies,
Listen up....Spinning over the last few, not gonna say how many, years.. I've played a few different styles of music. But, it seems lately, that my DJ "Style," is somewhere between happy, uplifting, vocal house and funky, deep, electro, rub on it, sexy beats...(hehe, how's that for a concise description?) Chalk it up to having so many Good people around me, and feeling so much positive feedback and love. So it Must be a good thing.
So, This set is again, from the beginning of the night. Planned that way because I've been spinning some really beautiful lyrics, and wanted You to hear them. I always feel that the first song sets the tone of the night and the rest of the set just flows from there. Listen to what the lyrics tell you. I'm always talking to my room.
Now, That said, keep in mind that this set is just the first hour, twenty of the "Journey" that a whole night allows, and that I like All kinds of beats, and ALL kinds of crowds, and that means all kinds of "Journeys"...as long as they "Do" something, or serve a purpose to get you somewhere (requests included.) Even the musical style will change during the night, from vocal house, to sexy tribalness and progressive house, and does...every night I'm at the knobs (I like mixers with knobs and isolators).
...."blah, blah, blah"....couldn't I have just cut to the chase and just said...I love good music that makes you smile and dance....and Here you have a set full Of IT! Baby, Do you Feel me?
I appreciate all music fans, because I know we are all connected by the heartbeat. The pulse may come from the DJ booth, but the soul is on the floor. I also hope that you know that I have a real passion for the music, and love for the people who love it. I'm working on getting to a dance floor near you Soon. BE There, and Stay tuned, next show will be peak. Meantime, keep your head to the sky.
Love all around;

VooDoo got Cowboy'd
Play/Download VooDoo Rodeo Ride
Hello, all my Bouncin' Beat Buddies,
It was with Great pleasure, this Sunday, not long ago, that I was the feature DJ at the Voodoo Lounge and serving it up for Babylon T Dance. I remember it well....it was the weekend of Florida's Gay Rodeo...and What a weekend. As I also spin every Thursday and Friday night....and this time of year here is Peak, High Season for tourists...And Gay Rodeo....so that everywhere we went....the bars were literally packed with cowboys...including where I am....so I Knew that Voodoo would be rocked....It was. (Mark it on your calendar for next year, the Rodeo is a HOOT)
I start at 4pm and on that day....as I was loading In...the fans were already pulling up by the car loads to hear how I come up...ok, prolly for the free drinks...(glance) Let me say here....I AM blessed with a Great, dedicated, sexy, music loving fan base. Mad respect goes out to each and every one of them. For enduring some of my "Journey's," Thank You.
This set, is the second set of the night....I call it a set, I record the entire night, but have to cut it up into CD length sets, about an hour - twenty minuets. So by this "Set" (beginning around 5:30)...I already had a dancefloor...which I kept, thank you Very much, till they put the sofas on the floor for the drag show at 11...and was well on the way to being a packed room....including Cowboys....which stayed with me right to the end of my set for the night....7 hours. Seems like it would be a long night, seven hours...but that DJ booth is So much fun to spin....so comfortable with great equipment and monitors....that the night seems to be over almost as fast as it starts. (Great side note)...A good friend, and fan, came up to the booth around 9pm(ish)...and said..."Herbie there is nobody on the patio Or the back (Latin) room...they are All on the dancefloor"....big smile, it was true.
Great energy all night long. So here...you have a "Taste" of how we serve up T dance, Herbicidal style. I mix up the beats....I talk to the crowd with the song lyrics..."You want to Touch Me"....(so subliminally, they talk to each other)...I throw in the obligatory Anthems....too many to play in one night, mind you....I give them anthems with a Twist....I Always keep the door to the booth Open...as I Love when people stop by to talk and grope....and it All feeds my energy ....so that I have Loads to Give back. So there you 'ave it. I Hope you "Feel IT".....Like I did. And I Hope that I get to "give It" on a floor near You...Very soon.
Till then....Keep your heads to the sky....Spread some Love, 'cuz that's how you Get Some....Lovin'.
And, while we're on it....send some to your mom and dad....they won't be here for ever....and on that note....send some to your friends too....so they know who they are. We're All Connected....by Love and Music.
Love all around,
Herbie
