Episode Synopsis
Hello!
Back with the 2021 yearly overview of dance tracks. All tracks were either released, covered or remixed in 2021 and yes, there are a helluva lot of covers released each year, 2021 being no exception :)
Again, all tracks were mainly introduced to me through Spotify’s release radar, or Above & Beyond’s Group Therapy podcast, or taken from entries in the Global Dance Chart. For the first time ever I used some tracks with Dutch lyrics. Other facts: The mix starts at 100 bpm and ends in 137 bpm. From the initial 400 tracks, 106 tracks were cherry picked. Actually a few more tracks were used but only as a very short sample, those are not listed. Next to Dutch tracks, English, German, French and Spanish tracks are included. Accidentally, the Dutch influence is stromg in this mix where over 20 tracks have Dutch origins or Dutch remixers. I snuck in one track from 2022 (Tinlicker), and finally, there is also a remixed Eurovision Song Contest entry in there somewhere.
I used Serato DJ pro to sort the songs on BPM and I then used the demo version of Ableton Live version 11 to put the mix together, so had a maximum of 90 days before the trial ended and I could no longer export the mix. I finished it with less then 1 day left.. :)
Anyway, let me know what you think!
