My Definition of Chill Volume II Part 2

deckard@deckard-dj.com (Deckard) — Tue, 03 Aug 2010 02:08:27 -0700

I've taken roughly 13 months since I first started compiling tracks working away on Volume II of My Definition of Chill. Like a squirrel storing nuts for the winter I would find some tracks and add them to the project and forget about it for awhile. A couple months past and I forage a few more. Well it's almost ready now. Putting together dance mixes is a relatively straightforward process. A chill mix is a different beast entirely. I'm going to be honest and tell you most chill mixes bore the hell out of me. Maybe that's just me not searching out wide and far enough to find music that entertains me. Either way, in putting together this mix I logged many many hours in compiling, editing, and mixing the best compilation I could. Along the way I was able to mix in some of my all time favorite songs (Ulrich Schnauss, Underworld) along with some new classics (Phoenix, LCD Soundsystem), some covers (Toto, Walk on the Wild Side) and hidden gems. I hope you, dear listener, enjoy the toils of my labor.

Breakfast of Champions 2010

Breakfast of Champions is my favorite party of the year so it's always an honor to DJ at it. With 2009 being my first year as a Space Cowboy I'm hoping there are many more to follow. This year starting off the main room when the door opens I wanted to play both to those who were just starting their day and those who were going full force from the night before. I got a thrill out of playing a wide range of sounds at one of the biggest parties of the year. Happy New Year indeed. 01 Aldo Vanucci - Walk Like A Man (FDel Remix) 02 Big M - California Soul 03 DJ Godfather - Lookin' on da flo (Djuma Soundsystem Remix) 04 Hot Natured - Leectric Feel 05 Ram Skank - If It Feels Good, Disappear (Big M Remix) 06 Big M - Crazy Lazy 07 Slacker - The Call (Paul Harris & Jay P Remix) 08 Stefano Noferini - Etnico 09 Chris Lake, LYS, Steve Smith - Humanica 10 A Guy Called Gerald - Voodoo Ray (Stanton Warriors Remix) 11 Deekline - I Don't Smoke (Tim Healey Mix Krafty Kuts Edit) 12 Stupid Fresh - Get The Fuck Up (Krafty Kuts ReRub) 13 Jinx - Higher 14 Slyde - Discofukka 15 MGMT - Time To Blow Your Mind (Slyde Remix) 16 Popmuschi - Once Again 17 Robb G - 12 Inch Therapy (Hirshee Remix) 18 Frank Sinatra - My Way (Clipse Remix)

Party People

deckard@deckard-dj.com (Deckard) — Tue, 14 Jul 2009 19:21:21 -0700

Party People is mainly inspired by Big Beat music from 1999-2000 where I was introduced to club culture. Sometimes what’s missing from the big electro beats you hear at late night parties is a good groove and a song that will put a smile on your face. Party People is all about putting a smile on your face. It’s my summertime boombox mix. 01 - Deckard - Introducing... 02 - Dynamo Productions - Slip Inn Dennis Coffey & The Detroit Guitar Band - Scorpio 03 - Drummatic Twins - Soul Flower 04 - Mark Walton - Got It Like That (John Ohms Remix) 05 - All Good Funk Alliance - Slingshot Boogie (Featurecast Remix) 06 - Playgroup - Front 2 Back (Fatboy Slim Remix) (Deckard Edit) 07 - FDel - Get Up On Ya Feet 08 - Layo & Bushwacka - Sly (Deckard to the Music Mix) 09 - The BPA - He's Frank (Layo & Bushwacka Remix) (Deckard Edit) 10 - Dub Pistols - Back to Daylight (Access Denied Remix) (Deckard Edit) 11 - Fort Knox Five - The Party Pushers (Smalltown Romeo Remix) 12 - Fort Knox Five - Insight (A-Skillz Instrumental Remix) 13 - A-Skillz - Happiness 14 - Hardy Hard & Mr. X - Records Back (Electrixx Remix) 15 - Dub Pistols - Soul Shaking (DJ Touche Instrumental Remix) 16 - Leroy Thornhill - Hands Up (Boogie Army Remix) 17 - Splitloop - Party People (Absorb Remix) 18 - Yo Majesty - Club Action (Stanton Warriors Remix) 19 - QDup Foundation - Renegade's Revenge

My Definition of Chill - Vol. I

deckard@deckard-dj.com (Deckard) — Wed, 12 Nov 2008 12:23:08 -0800

Summer is here and the time is right for... chillin' with my new mix. Decidedly non-club oriented. Some of these songs I've collected over the years and keep coming back to. Not to denigrate other downtempo mixes, but I can only listen to Kruder & Dorfmeister so many times before it's time for something different. So I made this mix for me, but I hope you enjoy it too. The finished product is nearly 2 hours mixed with songs ranging from Brian Eno to LCD Soundsystem, Royksopp and Boards of Canada. It begins and ends without beats, but in between you will find some of my favorite downtempo and progressive tunes for those times when you're ready to kick back. My Definition of Chill - Vol. I 01 - Bent - As Seen From Space 02 - Brian Eno - Deep Blue Day 03 - Boards of Canada - Wildfile Analysis 04 - Nathan Fake - You Are Here 05 - Art of Noise - Crusoe 06 - Vector Lovers - Tokyo Glitterati (Extended) 07 - Dirtyhaze - Hey Mama 08 - LCD Soundsystem - Someone Great (Deckard Instrumental Re-Edit) 09 - Boards of Canada - The Color of Fire 10 - Slacker - Best Boyfriend (Slacker's Hymn to Her) 11 - Headland - Nitefall 12 - Matthew Adams - No More Anymore (Elusive Remix) 13 - Latex - The Porcupine 14 - Skystate - Soundflower Two 15 - Stefan Goldman - Sleepy Hollow 16 - Layo & Bushwacka! - Love Story 17 - Vincent Casanova - Before You Go 18 - Slacker - A Million Dreams 19 - Vincent Casanova - Hits 20 - Above & Beyond - Good For Me (King Roc Vocal Mix) 21 - Royksopp - What Else Is There (Thin White Duke Mix) 22 - Nathan Fake - You Are Here (Four Tet Remix) 23 - Spiritualized - Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space

Come With Me

deckard@deckard-dj.com (Deckard) — Sat, 05 Nov 2005 08:00:00 -0800

After moving to SF in the summer of 2005 I was deluged with breakbeats. This is my way of showing SF a progressive DJ can play breaks too.

Dirty

deckard@deckard-dj.com (Deckard) — Tue, 16 Sep 2003 08:00:00 -0700

A true labor of love. Sasha was my first DJ hero. Dirty is my homage to everything I loved about progressive music from 1999 - 2003.
