Description
With temperatures cresting 100 in many parts of the country, there's no let up on the dance floor either! The "heat" started right after this year's Winter Music Conference in Miami. The music just started streaming out from the labels, one hot song, one floor-filler after another. You have to know I wanted to release podcast after podcast filled with tunes from all the artists who's names are part of our everyday conversations: Madonna, Maria, Beyoncé and her sister Solange, the Pussycat Dolls, Rihanna, Pink, Lady GaGa (who's first single, "Just Dance," I actually disliked intensely), the Ting Tings, Kelly Clarkson, Wynona (yes, THAT Wynona, the country music star, Wynona Rider)... Hell, even the boys got in on the act: U2, the Pet Shop Boys, David Guetta, Enrique Iglesias... I mean it was literally non-stop with all the great tunes that kept coming and coming and coming...
Unfortunately, I was so busy with the Gay Internet Radio Live (G.I.R.L.) GayDays contest, I didn't have time to use all of that great stuff in podcasts with the exception of my final-round set, Episode 25 of "Press Play" (while the rest of my entries can be heard in the streaming media player on my Website at www.dj-jester.com).
But now, summer is upon us. We're all out celebrating Pride, and there's still plenty of great new stuff filling my DJ bag! Rather than go back a few months and sound like an FM radio station, I thought I'd make it up to you with the most current stuff I could get my hands on.
So here you go: new music from Beyoncé, Whitney, the Pussycat Dolls, U2, David Guetta, Agnes (winner of the Swedish edition of "American Idol"), Sophia May, Bellatrax, Erica Jayne, and even a couple of less-familiar names like Chris Kaeser and Ralph Falcon. Some of these tunes have already hit #1; others are destined to be there within the next month-or-two. But anyway you want to look at it, these tunes are top-of-the-chart right now, and are likely to keep summer clubbing on fire!
So get out your fan, turn up the air conditioning, and grab a large Sweet Tea from Mickey-D's, 'cause you're gonna need it! This one's definitely a "Scorcher!"

Et tu, Paco?: Constructed using only tracks given to me by my friend (and fellow DJ) Paco, this set is my way of thanking him for the gift. Deep, dark and funky, this set is a perfect companion to "Crush," but even more on the progressive side! by DJ Pete Savas presents "Press Play"
