It's been a while since the last edition of the Meet The Locals Podcast series, but we're back with a great new mix from a name that will be familiar to any regulars on the DC dance music scene, PHILCO:
"My mix for DC House Grooves has a couple different feels to it. First off, I really tried to be current with the mix. Most of the tracks have come out in the past 2 or 3 months -- just recent releases that I've really been feeling. A couple older tracks in there as well. There's some big hitters included like Hot Since 82 and Danny Daze, even a Kevin Saunderson edit, but also some stuff from emerging artists and tracks that I really like that haven't got a lot of coverage. Overall, I picked tracks that I thought would make things interesting and keep people moving throughout the mix.
Second, most of my gigs are opening sets or in venues with a fairly diverse crowd, so I often have to play a bit more accessible to get people going and keep a good vibe in the room. I enjoy playing a lot of sub genres under the House umbrella (Vocal, Soulful, Tribal, etc), but this mix is more representative of the music I love playing out most. Stuff that's Deeper, has a lot of low end, is more Techy, and can also a bit experimental at times.
Hope everyone enjoys. Thanks DC House Grooves for the feature! "
