The set showcases how Tina's voice and songs translated across house, disco and 12-inch club formats, and why she became a lasting gay icon and club favorite. This two-hour-plus tribute remembers Tina Turner not just as a rock and pop legend but as a performer whose catalog kept evolving for DJs and dancers. Listen for the blend of vintage power vocals and remix-era production that kept her relevant in clubs for decades.

  • Diva Hall of Fame: Madonna: The Ultimate Dance Collection Vol. 1 (2022)
    Aug 13 2022
    Dance-focused Diva Hall of Fame mix from 2022 that revisits Madonna’s formative club years. Volume 1 collects extended versions and rare edits from the 1980s through 1990, assembled to recreate an 80s DJ flow while keeping continuous dancefloor energy. The set leans on the era’s club tools—Disconet, Ultimix, Hot Tracks—and favors mixes that match snare-driven electronic patterns for smooth transitions. Highlights include Shep Pettibone’s Open Your Heart, Ultimix Express Yourself, and several Digital Visions re-edits of Into the Groove and Like a Prayer, alongside Select Mix treatments of Material Girl and Vogue pt. 2. The compiler focused on sequencing and pacing rather than exhaustive remix trivia, so tracks have room to breathe while the mix maintains momentum across nearly two hours. For another angle on her early catalog, the notes point listeners to The Immaculate Bootleg Collection Vol. 1 and Madonna’s official compilations for further listening.

    Feb 1 2020
    This episode is 80s dance music — The Essential 80's Dance Mix, Vol. 6 (2019) — assembled to gather notable tracks that missed earlier volumes and to cap this particular series run. The two-and-a-half-hour mix leans on club-era reworks, Ultimix and Hot Tracks edits, and a handful of modern culture-shock remixes to keep a steady, floor-ready flow while honoring the originals' hooks. Highlights include ABC's Look Of Love (Ultimix), Eurythmics' Sweet Dreams in a Culture Shock remix, Edge remixes of Human League staples Don't You Want Me and (Keep Feeling) Fascination, plus Bananarama's Venus and Madonna's Open Your Heart among other dancefloor favorites. Sequencing and selection were carefully considered — sometimes over weeks — to preserve momentum across nearly two and a half hours. Party Favorz notes a temporary pause on further 80s compilations but promises future revisits to New Order, Depeche Mode, and SAW-era material. For now, sit back and enjoy a nostalgia-forward, remix-focused take on classic 80s dance tracks.

  • Dance Tribute: David Bowie: Let's Dance Remixed & Reimagined (2019)
    Nov 19 2019
    Dance · Legacy Tribute · 2019 — Party Favorz reimagines David Bowie for the club with a carefully sequenced mix that pulls highlights from across his career and translates them into a dancefloor context. This set is intended as a tribute, not a definitive anthology: it focuses on remixes and re-edits that push Bowie’s melodies and moods into electronic territory while honoring the original spirit of the songs. Selections range from upbeat reworks to more reflective reinterpretations. Standouts include the DJ Ernani take on "Let's Dance," Julian Marsh’s soulful versions of "Space Oddity" and "Under Pressure," plus the 7th Heaven remix of "Rebel Rebel," a Pet Shop Boys extended mix of "Hallo Spaceboy," and 808 State’s '91 remix of "Sound + Vision." The flow highlights Bowie’s chameleon-like range, acknowledging that some catalogue moments resist straightforward club translation while celebrating those that adapt beautifully. Made with affection and restraint, this mix aims to introduce Bowie’s songwriting to club listeners and longtime fans alike, offering fresh production perspectives without erasing the songs that made him essential.
