Occasion Vibration

A weekend breakfast is the best opportunity to set the tone for the rest of your weekend day. You don't have to rush to scrape together some yogurt or bagel excuse for a meal. You have time for eggs. Hell, you probably even have time for an omelet, french toast or frittata. This mix will help you relax while treating yourself to one of life's best, yet most simple pleasures. This 38-minute mix starts off with some soft european pop ballads that make waking up easy. The latter part of the mix provides a little momentum for when your coffee or tea kicks in, courtesy of some slower deep house and dub-influenced rhythms. 1. Saint Etienne - Late Morning 2.

Looking forward to some historical context for my favorite meal.

Going out on New Years Eve is a gamble. A big night out on the town might seem like the only way to quench your thirst for countdown excitement, but then reality bites back in the form of long lines, steep covers, excessive boozing, drunk drivers and room full of unrealistic expectations. Staying in is the wise move, but you don't want to squander an opportunity to party with friends on a night most can stay out late. Solution: you invite the peeps to your place and play this mix starting at exactly 11pm. Exactly one hour later, a countdown finishes and you'll find yourself in a state of retro-infused-dancing-bliss. There's something in this mix for everyone as long as you like house, r&b, disco or house. This mix includes many of my favorite dance tracks from 2012 as well as some tried and trusted favorites.
