Month: September 2024

Can you believe it’s been 10 WHOLE YEARS of The Dance Megamix? That’s a full decade right there. This episode embodies what I hoped to do from the outset of creating my radio show — throwing a weekly radio party that pays homage to the history of dance music. Behold! Two hours of ESSENTIAL house music from the early days of house music in NYC, New Jersey, Chicago, Detroit, Boston and beyond.
