Whoa there! It looks like Don has really gone off the reservation in this week’s edition of the Dance Megamix. This episode is 100% DRUM N BASS music, or jungle, as it is sometimes known. We hit some high notes in here, with DJ Zinc, Ganja Kru, DJ Hype, Mulder, Roni Size, Aphrodite, Photek, and more. It’s a flashback mix to the rave years of the late 90’s, early 00’s, and it is fearsome.

Wedding season is upon us, and this pre-recorded edition of the Megamix takes us into the decorative celebration tent of eternal union. This pod came from an actual wedding this summer, now for you to enjoy too! Cheers!

Sometimes people are curious how one goes about building a wedding set. This one was for a couple with a bride who loves 80’s pop/soul like Whitney Houston and Sheila E., and a groom who loves old school hip hop, especially A Tribe Called Quest. Oh, and 60’s and 70’s soul jams for the older guests. So how do you pull it off?

Witness the magic of Don Play.
