Episode 190: Eastern Standard Time » Strictly Underground House Music
dattrax: Welcome my Fellow Brothers and Sisters to where house music resides. It's almost the end of 2025. Time is relentless isn't it?I wish pain wasn't necessary to create beautiful art, but it seems to be the key ingredient.House music has been an outlet for my negative emotions since I was 14. Whenever I do anything related to house, hunting for tracks that move me, dancing, listening or mixing house. Even talking with friends about house.__________________Ever have a terrible year full of things happening to you over and over that were negative? That were almost all the result of your poor choices? Have you ever sat down and taken inventory on the things you've gone through? I'm already writing a novel here, but/however, just want to share one observation. Hopefully this good fortune cookie can help you with a better 2026. __________________Perspective is Everything. We control the direction of the movement of our subconscious, or to put it in another way, it’s our reaction to any given person or circumstance that is important, not the person or circumstance itself. If we view a situation as negative or positive, then our mind will obey that direction we give it and find ways to prove us right. __________________It’s crazy that we can be in a great mood and then one piece of news makes us angry or extremely negative, or the opposite where we’re in a terrible mood, then one thing happens and we’re super happy. Why is that? What changed? The news or circumstance that was introduced? Or was it the negative or positive value we attached to the new info?__________________We have to learn how to reframe any situation into a perspective that is beneficial to us.__________________For Example: A joke I heard in my early 20’s that really affected my outlook...There’s a joke about two boys with completely different personalities. One boy was always negative, entitled and never happy. The other boy was always positive and optimistic.One Christmas, the ill-mannered boy was given a room full of wonderful presents. He proceeded to complain about each one as he opened them. A mountain of gifts and he just couldn’t see any good in his situation.The other boy got a giant pile of horse shit in his room and all his possessions were removed.What did he do? He happily played in the pile of horse shit. When asked why he was so happy? He joyfully replied: “With a pile of horse shit this big, there’s got to be a pony hiding in here somewhere!!!!!!!!!!”Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your loved ones. This is probably the last mix that I'll be posting in a few weeks in January 2026. Thank you for listening to this mix. May God Bless You and All Who You Love Abundantly 💜💜💜💜💜💜❤️Cheersdattrax ---------------DJ Bookings for Canada, the US, or Global: dattrax@gmail.comDonation ETransfers (CAD): dattrax@gmail.comConnect on IG: https://www.instagram.com/house_music_by_dattrax/Connect on FaceCrack: https://www.facebook.com/dat.so.940

Episode 190: Hi-Hat Hustle » Strictly Underground House Music
dattrax: Welcome my Fellow Brothers and Sisters to where house music resides. Gearing up for Christmas? Got your presents all ready to put smiles on some loved ones?One of the most beautiful thing about house music is that... If you haven't heard a track, then it's new to you.House tracks are not tied to time and don't sound outdated because of trends.There have been so many times per month that I buy a track that sounds FRESH and it's so incredible and then I find out that it's a decade old. There is SOOOOOOOOOOOOO many house tracks being made that it would be impossible to hunt down all the house music tracks ever made.____________________You can hear a familiar track, but/however, if the preceding track and the following track are interesting, then the two combinations that sandwich the track that you're familiar with gets revived/refreshed. It's a completely new experience.It's all about the combos. I dream in combos. Obsess over fav and newly bought tracks.I attempt to do this in this 1hr and a half house music mix. I hope that you enjoy it.Much love and respect.Thank you for listening to this mix. I appreciate you. You could have chosen to spend your time anywhere else you'd like. Merry Christmas and May God Bless All Whom You Love Abundantly.Cheersdattrax---------------You're on our main site with almost 200 mixes.

Episode 189: Heart Battles » strictly underground house music
dattrax: Welcome my Fellow House Friends to where house music resides. How is your mind life? Are you winning the daily battles against yourself? Against that negative voice that puts you down? Prop up the cheerleader in your mind. If you're not cheering for you, then who is???!!We can't comprehend how much house music has been made globally over the last 40yrs and is being created daily. It doesn't matter. Outside of hunting forever for tracks that speak to you, if you give 10 house DJs 100 tracks, you'll get 10 completely different mixes. This is the beauty of house music. One of a dozen wonderful reasons why house is unique and the purest form of personal expression.  _______________________Any advice for new house music DJs?Just one, don't compromise on what you want to spin or share. Make sure that you only purchase tracks that really MOVE you. Don't compromise. The rest will come with time, practice, imagination and reflection.Thank you for listening to this mix. I appreciate you. You could have chosen to spend your time anywhere else you'd like. Thank you. All the best to you.Cheersdattrax---------------You're on our main site with almost 200 mixes.

Episode 188: One Way Traffic » strictly underground house music
dattrax: Welcome my Fellow Brothers and Sisters to where house music resides. How is your week going so far?Counting my blessings. It's the simple things in life that brings moments of joy and happiness.Thinking about all the good that's happened and all the wonderful people that I have crossed paths with.Some built a little friendship or at least, shared kindred times. Sure negative shit happens all the time and to all of us. Negative people aren't avoidable. Hold on to the good. Replace, displace or discard the bad. Control what you can directly and the rest... let it be and go. Nothing you can do about it. ___________________Life is fascinating. The cycle of struggle and overcoming. Sometimes, I'm thankful for my sleep challenges because I have more time to sort things out. ___________________I write a lot for work and also writing helps me sort out my thinking and feelings + collecting and organizing ideas. Reading or learning helps displace or temporarily replace negative thoughts. You can't focus on two separate things, so it works. ___________________I love house music and I work out my emotions through hunting for tracks, listening, prepping mixes or gigs, mixing or dancing to it. The whole process is therapeutic. This quote is one that has helped me see clearly many times over the last five years. I hope that it can help you:"Every adversity, every failure, every heartache carries with it the seed of an equal or greater benefit."Napoleon Hill___________________These are my Chinese fortune cookies for today.Much love and respect.Thank you for listening to this mix. I appreciate you. You could have chosen to spend your time anywhere else you'd like. Thank you. All the best to you.Cheersdattrax---------------You're on our main site with almost 200 mixes.

Episode 188: Let Love Decide » strictly underground house music
dattrax: Welcome my Fellow Brothers and Sisters to where house music resides. How are you? Are you living the life that you envisioned?"Music is probably the only real magic I have encountered in my life. There's not some trick involved with it. It's pure and it's real. It moves, it heals, it communicates and does all these incredible things."Tom PettyI hope that you are working to fulfill your goals and dreams. That you beat or ignore any voice, especially the one between your ears that seeks to be an obstacle or seeks to put you down._____________________Just wanted to say that to you before my house related rant or thoughts. House has endlessly fascinated me since I was 14. I met some friends from a high school downtown Toronto called Jarvis Collegiate through a mutual friend while I was going to one in North York called George S. Henry, which is just north of the "GTA" or the "Greater Toronto Area". They loved to listen, mix and dance to house music vinyl records. After a few records, I was hooked. This structure of four four beats with endless creative possibilities within. It was infectious. I got goosebumps. I felt something in my gut. I automatically smiled. _____________________Noel Nanton is a wonderful person who added to my musical education and fed my new love. He became a good friend and in a grade higher, grade 11..was a house fanatic, great DJ and a new producer. We used to go to his place after school and he'd played me his favourite records. He'd tell me stories that he heard about the records, the famous Chicago and NYC house DJs. The ones playing at illegal warehouse parties in downtown Toronto. _____________________A few years later, 'junk hunting' became a term we used to describe the records we were looking for. "Yeah man, hunting for any track that moves us. That instantly gives us goosebumps within seconds of the needle dropping on the record."Thank you for listening to this mix. I appreciate you.Sorry, this mix doesn't have a playlist. Cheersdattrax---------------You're on our main site with almost 200 mixes.

Episode 188: Early Christmas » strictly underground house music
dattrax: Welcome my Fellow Brothers and Sisters to where house music resides. How has life been treating you?Comedy is such a beautiful art form. Just like house music and music in general.Anything that is really funny is because we know it to be true in our gut, but it's wrapped up and opened in surprising ways. You feel it. It's undeniable.Love Patrice O'Neal (RIP) and Bill Burr, followed by Chris Rock, Dave Chappelle, Eddie Murphy, Shane Gillis, and Jimmy Carr. This is where the first group begins with the Canadian Comedians, who are Russell Peters (a fellow Canadian), Jim Carrey (Canadian), and Dana Carvey (Canadian), then the list continues with Will Ferrell and Jamie Foxx, before transitioning to the Asian Comedians: Joy Koy (fellow Asian), Jimmy O. Yang (fellow Asian), and Ronny Chieng (fellow Asian). Finishing my favs list are Robin Williams, Anthony Jeselnik, Sebastian Maniscalco, Michael Che, Steve Emerson, Mark Normand, Louis C.K., Key & Peele, Ian Bagg (Canadian), Eddie Griffin, Phil Hanley, Jay Pharoah, Katt Williams, Conan O'Brien, Ralphie May (RIP), Matt Rife, Daniel Tosh, Craig Ferguson, Bill Maher and Norm Macdonald (RIP).Unapologetic and increditble truth and story tellers. More philosophers than joke writers.Zero convincing. It's either good or it's not._________________It's the same with house music. It's undeniable. You either love it as soon as you hear it or you don't care for it.That's why it's such an emotional, physical and mental release. When we receive it and the tracks connect with us. We get goosebumps because it's so good.I think about how music and other art forms affect me and why. Why do I love certain artists?It's that ones that respect that purity in making, sharing and others receiving their art.When I'm DJ'ing in front of a crowd, there is nothing like it. I've spend 4-8hrs the week before prepping the tracks that I'd like the option of spinning. Then seeing people's reactions to each track that I LOVE that MOVE me... dropping them and seeing the reactions. The giving and receiving.When out dancing and receiving a DJ's vision of house music. What they love and how they put everything together. It's so beautiful.Thank you for listening to this mix. I appreciate you. All the best to you.Cheersdattrax---------------You're on our main site with almost 200 mixes.

Episode 188: Tracks that Matter » strictly underground house music
dattrax: Welcome my Fellow Brothers and Sisters to where house music resides. How is life treating you?I hope and pray that you are doing well and moving your life forward.I don't understand how the house music tracks are constructed. Can't read music. Can't create/produce tracks. Can't sing. Well,... I can sing, but your ears will hurt, so not well.Don't know what "in key" means to apply it to DJ'ing.I love DJ'ing because it's the best form of self expression for me.A musical collage. Picking the tracks you love. Tracks that MOVE you. It's UNDENIABLE. Either you love it or don't.Highlighting the parts you love of each track.EQ'ing the way a track sounds to your preferences. (Some DJs love more bass, some love the crisp hi hats like me).Changing the speed to what you like. Some like it slow or super slow or fast or a medium danceable tempo.It's your mix, you can do WHATEVER you want. Ultimate freedom to create.Changing the energy or flow of a mix with different combinations or styles of transition.As two art forms, the differences between live DJ'ing to a crowd OR the complete control of creating a mix.It's soooooooooo much fun and endlessly fascinating to me.With each new track that I buy, I imagine what tracks from my collection would sound great mixed in.I dream of combinations 😂. Dream in combinations.I'm 51 and still stoked about buying a new batch of music.I've loved house since I was 14 or so.Thank you for listening to this mix. I appreciate you. You could have chosen to spend your time anywhere else you'd like. Thank you. All the best to you.Cheersdattrax---------------You're on our main site with almost 200 mixes.

Hope all is well in your corner of the world.Have you had one of those rare days where 6-7 things go wrong and you're on your knees praying because you're so broken? I had one of those days last December. From 10am till past midnight. EVERYTHING went wrong. One after another. LMAO.If I described that day, then no one would believe it. Plus, I'd sound like I'm whining, which is not what I want to do. I only visit the past to gather insights, NOT to wallow in my negativity. We're NOT victims.We all go through negative stuff. Probably not as bad as other people, even though we don't want to compare. (Comparison is the basis of discouragement because we compare our valleys to someone's hilltops).All we can control is our reaction to the circumstances as they occur.As bad as any day, it'll have to end soon. Hold on to that.House music heals and restores. This is a 2nd attempt for this batch of beautiful vocal house tracks that I wanted to include in this mix of healing, and it's one of my most personal mixes.We don't value beauty and art without going through the dark times.I hope and pray that you get on top of your circumstances. That you forge ahead with a smile on your face and a great attitude.After wading through a valley, a hill is bound to come up on the horizon.One battle in our mind at a time.These are my Chinese fortune cookies for today.Much love and respect.Thank you for listening to this mix. I appreciate you. You could have chosen to spend your time anywhere else you'd like. Thank you. All the best to you.PS » I want to thank many great friends who have been available to listen or help in my life (especially these last 7 years of my divorce) when they didn't have to do anything. I appreciate you and I hope that I can repay your kindness one day.Thankful and Grateful (I googled the difference).dattrax---------------IMAGE CREDIT: My dear friend, Sunanda and her two wonderful children.

Episode 187: mUsiCaL CoLLaGE » strictly underground house music
dattrax: Welcome my Fellow Brothers and Sisters to where house music resides. Hope all is well in your corner of the world.I"m soooooooo excited to share this mix with you!!!!This is one of my fav mixes that I've ever made. It's 73 Tracks in 2hrs and 14!!! That's about one track in every 1.8mins. What I love about this mix is that it treats each track as components to DJ/mix with. It was so much fun. I was dancing and singing my heart out. This took about three attempts with the same batch of tracks. Probably another 100 on top of what's recorded here, but this attempt was completely different than the two previous test mixes.The mixing and layering is fantastic. I probably can't reproduce this feel. Glad it's recorded.It glides through different types of house music that MOVEs me. I really hope that you enjoy this mix.I really LOVE the transitions, although I was too impatient with about 4-5 and didn't mix out the preceding tracks as well as I'd like to. It is what it is.It's the imperfections that make the groove PERFECT. Everything in its place right??I also took a few tracks and played them multiple times and because they were sandwiched between different combinations on the way in and out, it was a completely different feel each time. Never did this before. It's an interesting technique. Building an overall groove throughout the two hour mix and mini grooves with 2 to 4 track combinations.Ahh... geeking out. House music and DJ'ing it is so fascinating.Thank you so much for checking out this mix. I appreciate you. You could have chosen to spend your time anywhere else you'd like. Thank you. All the best to you.May God Bless You and All Whom You Love.Cheers,dattrax---------------COME & CHECK OUT our main site with almost 200 mixes.

dattrax: Welcome my Fellow House Fiends to where house music resides. Hope all is well in your corner of the world.This mix took forever. Geez. I just couldn't get it right. The way that I wanted it to feel. This is the seventh attempt. Yes, LMAO. I cheated too. I stitched half of the 6th attempt with a new 40mins or so. LMAO.Each attempt had great moments and then pure shit!! I want to only post mixes that I'd want to listen to over and over again. Don't want throwaway mixes that no one gives a shit about. There's a beauty in this art form. The ultimate form of self expression. You can feel a DJ's energy and emotions.I feel the same way about DJ'ing live. Which is completely different than making a mix BTW. I'd rather have 30 people who love dancing to house music in front of me and we're making eye contact. Hi-fiving each other in the air. That's house music. I'd rather that then be at a massive event  with thousands of people where no one gives a shit if you're spinning or not. Enough of my elitist house rant. LMAO. It's not important. What's reallly important is what you get out of a mix.Just at the end of this mix, did you enjoy yourself? Did you smile? Did you forget your troubles for an hour or so?If so, then my mission is accomplished.House music Baby. It heals. Washes. Refreshs. Renew. So you can go do life struggles and triumphs again 💜Thank you for  checking out this mix. I appreciate you. You could have chosen to spend your time anywhere else you'd like. Thank you. All the best to you. Cheersdattrax---------------IMAGE CREDIT: This is a pic snapped by a friend of mine's friend, Eugene. Vigil has kindly given me permission to use this incredible photo.

Episode 184: Beyond Words » Strictly Underground House Music
dattrax: Welcome my Fellow House Fiends to where house music resides. Hope all is well in your corner of the world.We're moving into the cooler autumn in Toronto, Canada. How's the weather in your location?I've told some friends last weekend that I wish that I could quit this addiction/obession. Really. Truthfully. I'd love to be able to quit. Just bought 64 new tracks from Traxsource. I'm 50 years young, but should've been done with DJ'ing, going dancing to house music, buying house music decades ago. LMAO. This addiction drives me mad and yet has been so therapeutic, so wonderful. Mixed feelings.It is what it is. Although I wish that I could be normal and just golf, fish or collect stamps, any other 'normal' man's hobby. Geez.The most beautiful house music is being created today. Took me weeks to find these new 64 gems. Less than half are in this new mix that you're about to experience. Mixed with a few gems that came to mind. Good house music is timeless.I've heard this mix two times and going on a third today. I FREAKING LOVE IT. LOVED MAKING IT. This is one of my best works. My hope is that you love listening and dancing to this.I hope that I can give you this two hour escape from whatever is stressing you, so that this beautiful music can refresh you.Then you can tackle the obstacle that is in your way to attaining your objectives.I hope that you win the battles in your mind each day and then move forward with improving yourself, your life and all the lucky humans that cross your path. That's my Chinese fortune cookie for you. LolCheersdattraxImage: My doggie, Tommy. In this pic, he's sleeping but looks like he's doing some doggie Kung-Fu moves. This was such a cute pic.

dattrax: Welcome my Fellow House Fiends to where house music resides. Hope all is well in your corner of the world.It's chilly AF here in Toronto, Canada as we're in our Autumn season. Thank you for stopping by and giving this new mix a listen. Much appreciated. Here's a little something I wrote for myself, but want to share with you. Hope it brightens your day along with this new mix."Who knows why we are dealt the cards that we have gotten?Some are good cards, some are blessed.Some are poor all the way to horrific. Some rare encouraging people in our lives will tell us that we're special. That we are destined to do good. That we matter. Some tell us that we're nothing. Don't deserve anything. Less than nothing.Some will be kind to us and some will treat us with distain. What they do to us isn't as important as how we decide to react. At the end of the day..., more accurately... At the beginning of each day, we decide what we are. A chance to forgive ourselves and move forward. We decide to let go or to hold on. We decide on which thoughts to entertain and which to discard. We decide if we're going to be a victim or a volunteer. Each day is a new opportunity to reinvent ourselves. A wasted life or one that brings sunshine into each person that we encounter. We decide which choices to make. Which actions to take. We decide to start now or to put it off. To fight or make peace. We decide what we think, how we feel, what we do and who we are. We can decide who we want to become. Are we better than we were before? Than yesterday?" Well..., that's my Chinese fortune cookie for the day. All the best to you. I hope that you win the battles in your mind each day and then move forward with improving yourself, your life and all the lucky humans that cross your path.Cheersdattrax---------------How do we describe the dattrax sound?

Episode 181: Moth to the Flame » Strictly House Music
dattrax: Welcome my Fellow House Fiends to where house music resides. House music is so beautiful. It either grabs you or it doesn't. Doesn't need explaining or convincing. You feel it in your gut, you smile uncontrollably and you want to put your hands in the air or dancing.I've loved house music since I was 15yrs old. DJ'ing and starting buying vinyl records at 18. I'm 50 now and just bought 20 new tracks for this new session. It took over a month to hunt down these 20 that move me. After I waited for the 20% discount code that https://www.traxsource.com/ emails me as a subscriber. Then I listened to this batch for 2-3 days.House music is my #1 hobby, artistic outlet, therapeutic sandbox and emotional release. Anything to do with it. Finding/hunting for tracks, listening to mixes to be inspired, learn and enjoy. Mixing tracks that move me and dancing. I have rules there, so that I'm in maximum enjoyment and peace.I make my mixes for me. Second, for my best friend, Jimmy.Anyone else who likes or enjoys it is gravy—a bonus. I hope that this session will put a smile on your face and brighten your day. All the best to you. Thank you for choosing to listen to this new session.Cheersdattrax---------------How do we describe the dattrax sound?

Episode 180: Chosen Shelter » Strictly House Music
dattrax: Welcome Fellow House Headz!! Ready for a new sonic excursion?How are things in your corner of the world? Are you kicking butt in all your endeavours? Are you staying positive despite challenging circumstances and people? Hi-five to you!! Let's escape a little through soul-refreshing house music. I loved making this mix. It took almost 3wks to prep 200 or so tracks for this mix. Then I dwindled it down to 120 or so.I was dancing and mixing through 66 tracks in almost 3hrs. Topic detour: As a 50yr old single/divorced man who has four wonderful children with the love of his life for 24yrs, I've had some interesting life experiences. 20yrs before dating her and the last almost 7 years not married to her.  A decade as a crazy restaurant manager in a downtown Toronto hotspot. DJ'ing for 35yrs or more. Working in digital marketing for 17yrs and specifically as an SEO and SEM manager for 14yrs out of those 17. I REALLY REALLY wish that I learned these few gems at 12yrs old. No one teaches boys anything useful about girls. When you ask men of varying ages what their main challenges are, what do they say? Money or women.  Life-Saving Advice for 12yr old Boys & Beyond"Watch where you put your signature or your dick.""Don't go after another man's wife.""Don't cum where you eat.""Don't fuck crazy."Did you laugh?

Episode 179: Sound Hug Yaa-uuM » Strictly House Music
dattrax: Welcome Fellow House Seekers!! Thank you for taking us for a spin. We appreciate you.How have you been? Good and bad things happened in your life?Be your best cheerleader. Fight and win the daily battles in your mind. You are your competition. Trying to better the older version of you.I think about all the house music DJs that I love to dance to in this great city; they're all different. I think about my DJ gigs, many of them are very different. I feel like dancing to some tracks. To some moments. I don't feel like it other times. Because I love dancing, I know what I want. When I'm DJ'ing, I'm giving myself what I want when I'm dancing. Have fun and play what moves you. Some will love it, some won't.  No big deal.As long as we 100% only play tracks that MOVE us. We'll be fine.My friend, Caco gave this mix's name: "Sound Hug Yaa-uuM" He said that some tracks feel like they're reaching out to hug him. I thought that this is a wonderful description of great house tracks. They hug you in sound and emotions.Just a few thoughts to share with you. Thank you for listening to this mix. Have a great week. I hope you crush everything you want to accomplish. All the best to you.Cheers, dattrax---------------How do we describe the dattrax sound?

Episode 178: Illyria's Going Away Party May 2024 » Strictly House Music
dattrax: Welcome Fellow House Muisic Aficionadot to where house music resides.I hope that all is well in your corner of the world. Thank you for taking a listen to our brand of house music. [We've loved this special art form since we were 15yrs old and now 50. We've gone past the stage where people might ask, 'Aren't you too old for...' by decades. LMAO].There are dozens of house DJs that I listen to, so I know that choice is abundant, so I appreciate it when someone would take time from their lives to check out a mix. It makes me happy thinking about people smiling and bopping their heads while driving or walking their doggies or working out or cleaning their homes to our mixes or any other activity.Till Next Time.Cheers, dattrax---------------How do we describe the dattrax sound?
