• Fall Throwback Dance Party 2025: Volume III

  Estimated reading time: 6 minutes Fall Throwback Dance Party Volume III: The Moment It All Clicked Party Favorz is closing out the season with the third volume of our Fall Throwback Dance Party, and this one hits in a way the earlier entries didn’t quite manage. Volume III blends familiar classics from the ’70s and ’80s with ’90s House favorites and early-Millennium gems, but with a twist. These aren’t straight-up recreations. Instead, you get bold mashups, creative overlays, and unexpected pairings that turn well-known tracks into something entirely different. Block & Crown and their extended circle continue to work their magic by stitching together instrumentals you know with vocals you may not expect. They frequently pull in Rap or Hip-Hop verses that weren’t part of the original songs, yet somehow elevate the energy. The result feels like two different worlds colliding on the dance floor—and it works far better than logic says it should. Their grasp of what drives a crowd is why these sets land so well. It really is a case of “it takes two to make a thing go right,” and these producers prove that point with every release. A Tough Start to the Fall Throwback Dance Party Series Top Dance Club Songs of the Year 2024 Volume III | The Year’s Biggest Bangers! Fall Throwback Dance Party kicks off with Volume I, packed with 70s–90s magic X-Mas Dance 2K18 | The Essential Christmas Dance Mix 90s House Music Classics Volume 7: Keep On Movin' Summer Throwback Dance Party 2025: Volume 1 To be blunt, I wasn’t feeling the first two volumes. Part of that was on me. I’ve been in and out of the hospital twice since late October dealing with sepsis, and even though the doctors helped me through it, the medications had me foggy. My focus was shot, my energy was low, and listening to music—something I normally love—felt like a chore. I nearly shelved the entire Fall Throwback Dance Party run because the earlier mixes just weren’t clicking. On the drive home from the hospital, I revisited Volume II and felt a wave of annoyance settle in. Everything felt repetitive. The songs blurred together. Even though these producers often use templates in their workflow—which isn’t unusual for remix culture—it still didn’t land for me. With nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists, and every type of specialist stopping by throughout the week, I didn’t have the mental space to sit down and give the music the attention it deserved. Everything was overwhelming, and Party Favorz took a back seat whether I wanted it to or not. Thanksgiving Break: The Turning Point Thanksgiving morning, I woke up around 2 AM with a rare pocket of quiet. I opened my folder for Volume III and realized the playlist was still unfinished. There weren’t enough tracks to shape it into a full mix. Because Block & Crown and the related Funky House crew release tons of material every week, I decided to check my DJ service to see what I had missed since my first pass in October. This is where everything changed.A wave of strong releases had dropped—finally showcasing the punch, bounce, and grit that I expect from these producers. I downloaded everything that caught my ear and threw it straight into the playlist. Once I began mixing, the frustration I carried from the earlier volumes melted away. The grooves locked in. The energy felt right. For the first time in months, I felt like myself again behind the decks. Tightening the Mix The next night (again at 2 AM—apparently that’s my hour), I sat down to tighten the transitions. Many of these Funky House tracks have long outros that drag on. Beatport may categorize them as Funky House, but the arrangement leans heavily toward late ’90s and early-Millennium structure—long build-ups, long breakdowns, and long fade-outs. That style worked for club DJs back then, but modern listeners want momentum. So I trimmed the fat.I cut down repetitive endings and kept the energy moving. Track-to-track flow is everything in a Fall Throwback Dance Party set, and these edits keep things from losing steam. Why These Sets Aren’t Easy People often assume these sets are simple because they rely on recognizable songs. The opposite is true. Most tracks in this space avoid traditional breakdowns. That means I can’t always use my standard approach to mixing. I pull out techniques I rarely rely on, adjust on the fly, and shape transitions that suit the odd structures these remixes use. After producing so many Throwback sessions over the years, though, I’ve gotten fast at finding the sweet spot. What once took hours now comes together far more efficiently. That confidence helped Volume III come to life without the struggle that dragged down the earlier volumes. Looking Ahead: Holiday Edition and Year-End Plans Time is tight this year, so the Holiday Edition may or may not happen. Those mixes cost the most to produce, but recent donations have helped enough that it’s at least possible. If I go forward with it, the Top Dance Songs of the Year rollout will likely start in late December and wrap in early January 2026. I’ve done that before, and it’s the only realistic way to balance everything happening behind the scenes. Either way, Volume III of the Fall Throwback Dance Party marks a return to form, and I hope that comes through when you listen. Until the next time...ENJOY!

• Fall Throwback Dance Party 2025 Volume II

  Party Favorz is back with Volume II of the Fall Throwback Dance Party mix for 2025 — and this one spanks. As promised, this set leans into familiarity with recognizable dubs woven through tracks from your past. Remixers have a real talent for pulling together different genres and decades, creating something new that still sparks instant memories. Some of these combinations hit so well they’ll have you out of your seat. A Much-Needed Medical Breakthrough Yesterday’s outpatient procedure to seal off the faulty veins in my leg was a turning point. For the first time in months, I woke up without that familiar throbbing rush the moment my feet hit the floor. That alone felt like a gift. Later this morning, I’ll be checking into Emory Hospital for a full debridement under anesthesia. Many of you saw the earlier photo I shared, so you already know how important this step is. Clearing all the necrotic tissue at once is far more effective than the four months of manual removals I endured earlier this year — a slow, brutally painful process even with medication. Why Volume III Will Be Briefly Delayed Because of this short hospital stay, the release of Volume III — the final chapter of the Fall Throwback Dance Party series — will be pushed back slightly. Even so, we’re still aligned with the rest of the year’s plans. Once I’m home and settled, the next Club Fusion installment, Jingle Electric, will be moving forward. A Tough Call About the Holiday Edition Looking Toward Thanksgiving Weekend I’m also making the difficult decision to skip this year’s Holiday Edition. It’s not just the time crunch — producing those mixes costs over sixty dollars each, and right now, that kind of expense isn’t realistic. On top of my medical bills, the avalanche of costs from my last hospital stay has been enormous. Between essential Amazon purchases and replacing a bricked phone, the financial hit has been hard to ignore. If you’ve checked the donation portal lately, you know the situation already speaks for itself. Volume III will be released the weekend after Thanksgiving. With the holiday slowing down the constant flow of nurses, physical therapists, and occupational therapists, I should finally have the quiet time needed to wrap it up. If You Want Party Favorz To Continue If these mixes have carried you through workouts, weekends, holidays, or late-night escapes — and you want them to keep coming — please consider supporting Party Favorz through the donation portal. Even small contributions help stabilize things during a year where medical demands have taken such a toll. Your support genuinely keeps this project alive. I’ll be back next weekend, and until then…ENJOY!

• Fall Throwback Dance Party kicks off with Volume I, packed with 70s–90s magic

  Party Favorz is back in the saddle and kicking off the next round of the Fall Throwback Dance Party series. This first volume blends 70s, 80s, and 90s gems into a Funky House ride that hits all the right nerves. There’s a strong lean into 80s-style R&B dance grooves this time—plenty of deep cuts, and many so under-the-radar that even I had trouble tracing their origins. Still, the sound is unmistakably rooted in classic 80s R&B club culture, and these tracks hold up right alongside the songs you already know. Nothing here breaks the flow; it only adds to the flavor. Expect even more familiarity in the next two volumes of the Fall edition. I knocked out this mix around two in the morning—insomnia is still running the show. Nighttime pain keeps me from getting more than a few hours of sleep, but I’m hoping that shifts soon. I’ve got outpatient surgery coming up to improve blood flow in my leg, which should speed the healing process. After that, I’m scheduled for another procedure to remove the necrotic tissue you may have seen in the not-so-pleasant photo I shared earlier. On top of that, I have a rotating team of nurses handling wound care several times a week, plus physical and occupational therapists helping me strengthen my lower extremities and learn how to maneuver the wheelchair safely inside my apartment. It’s a lot at once, but I’m adjusting to the chaos one day at a time. As if that wasn’t enough, my phone ended up bricked while I was in the hospital, and to top it off, someone stole my Tiffany’s wedding ring during the ordeal. Now I’m juggling phone replacement and account security on top of everything else. A new phone arrives Monday, but until then, I’m locked out of my Facebook and Instagram accounts, which makes staying connected a little harder than usual. Just another thing to work around while life keeps throwing surprises my way. All of this has thrown off my usual workflow for building these mixes. The hardest part is not being able to drive, which means I can’t preview the sets in the car—my old go-to for checking transitions, flow, and overall energy. For years, listening in the car has been my final quality check. Without that, I have to trust my instincts during the build phase instead of reviewing the mixes in full ahead of release. Thankfully, the instincts are still sharp, but if you catch any transitions that sound slightly off, let me know and I’ll fix them. Meanwhile, the Party Favorz homepage is going through a few cosmetic changes. Nothing major—streaming and downloads are still running normally. Some of the visual updates hit a snag, and we’re working through them, so don’t panic if something looks a little odd. We’ve had offers to completely rebuild the website, but a full redesign just isn’t in the budget right now. So we’re polishing what we can, modernizing the look bit by bit, and keeping everything functional while we work through it. Volume 2 of the Fall Throwback Dance Party is almost wrapped, and Volume 3 is already queued up next. Both should land in the coming week and bring us back into more familiar territory. If you’re craving more of the Funky House flavor that sneaks into this set, check out the Funky House Sessions. If you're more into the classic era tracks that shaped this series, you’ll find plenty in BackSpin and other retro genres. Before I close out, I want to mention something important. Party Favorz has always been a labor of love, but keeping it running—especially right now—comes with real costs. If you enjoy the mixes, the history, the artwork, the remasters, or the steady flow of releases all year long, consider dropping a little support my way. Even a small recurring contribution helps keep things afloat while I navigate these medical challenges and still push myself to deliver the music you come here for.

• BackSpin: Electro House Classics & Other Millennial Dance Hits Volume 11: 2011 — 2012

  Happy Friday everyone! Party Favorz is back with the third and final installment of BackSpin [2011–2012]. This edition wraps up our journey through the Electro House classics and millennial dance hits that defined this two-year period. This set brings the energy with unforgettable anthems that shaped the era. This set include era-defining songs like “Hello” by Martin Solveig and Dragonette, “We Found Love” by Rihanna and Calvin Harris, “Party Rock Anthem” by LMFAO, and “Save the World” by Swedish House Mafia—a group that probably deserves their own Legacy entry in the near future. Of course, no mix from this period would be complete without David Guetta. His collaborations with powerhouse vocalists dominated clubs worldwide. From “Turn Me On” with Nicki Minaj to “Titanium” with Sia, Guetta proved unstoppable. Titanium in particular became the defining anthem of the decade, pairing raw emotion with a drop that still gives chills. https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=JRfuAukYTKg&t=50 Spectrum: From Indie Roots to Electro House Anthem Another standout is “Spectrum (Say My Name)” by Florence + The Machine. Originally produced by Paul Epworth for the band’s 2011 album Ceremonials, the track was already an international hit thanks to Florence Welch’s soaring vocals and the band’s signature art-pop drama. It was only later that Calvin Harris stepped in with his remix, transforming it into a club juggernaut. His reimagined version climbed to the top of the UK Singles Chart and became a festival favorite, bridging the gap between indie and EDM. More than a decade later, the song continues to evolve with new Afro House reworks and a recent Morgan Seatree remix, proving just how enduring its core melody and vocals are. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O4-6Y_91v5I Party Rockers and Dancefloor Mayhem While the big-room anthems carried the charts, some of the most infectious energy came from unexpected corners. One of our favorite party tracks from this period is “Loca People (What the F*)” by Sak Noel**. The original and its accompanying remixes were stellar in their own right, but it was the bootleg mashup by DJs From Mars that really lit dancefloors. In particular, DJs From Mars—in one of their earliest appearances—delivered a mashup that still turns heads. By blending Sak Noel’s banger with Bingo Players and a familiar riff from The White Stripes, they created a genre-bending track that sent crowds into hysteria. If you were on the dancefloor when this dropped, you know the chaos it unleashed. Their version wasn't just a remix; it was a reinvention, taking an already memorable song and pushing it into next-level territory. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-X4tSDHDa0 Closing the Chapter on 2011–2012 BackSpin Volume 11 officially closes out the 2011–2012 era of Electro House classics, but the journey continues. We’ll pick things back up with BackSpin [2013–2014] early in 2026, continuing the timeline and showcasing the evolution of EDM into its next phase. Before then, Party Favorz has something special lined up. By November, we’ll release a special edition that looks further back—from 1999 through the early 2000s. These big room classics were the precursor to the Electro House explosion of the 2010s, a period many consider the golden age of club music. Expect high energy, head-snapping BPMs, and big progressive tribal beats that laid the foundation for everything that followed. Even with BackSpin [2011–2012] Volume 11 closing this chapter, we’re not slowing down. More sets, more genres, and more reasons to keep your weekends lit with the very best in dance music. While you're here, consider chipping in by donating to Party Favorz—your support keeps these dance mixes coming. Until the next time…ENJOY!
