Chinese Chills Ep.1 (30 hours to nowhere)
Happy Birthday Denise! Told you.. I’ll House you!
Downtempo Progressive house with a hint of Nu-Disco.
Not referring to real Chill out but to the fact that I mixed those upcoming sets whilst travelling in China. The trip was horrid, when murphy’s law being the default mode. Furthermore, it was cold, chilling, freezing cold hence the title of the series.
First episode was mixed during a 30 hours’ period, with 5 connections for a itinerary, which really ought to have taken half the time. Tired, pissed off and needing some soothing music.
But if anything, this tempo 120/121 is my chill tempo. We are not talking about Chill Out Enya’s style but the type music I want to listen to in a hotel room, doing some work, relaxing but still needing a beat and yes sometimes a nu-disco beat.
The underlying theme being trying to “House You” around new progressive tunes and a few new take on classic tunes.
Hope you like it, a few new uploads coming your way very soon. I have a classic house mega set dropped live at a party on my hard drive, which will be uploaded once I get hrough my Chinese progressive sets.
