in the style department

So what better way to celebrate the 4th installment

than by mixing it on 4 TABLES!

Yeah  about time, and FINALLY

all at the same time!

We’ve got you SURROUNDED…almost

 

 

 

let’s try this again!!!

So come out with your HANDS UP!

Get ready to get your groove on in a whole new fashion.

Yes, here at DJNaveE.com, I’ve always tried to ensure

of some pretty high sonic standards.

This time around, I’ve decided to up the ante quite a bit.

Not only instead of just making sure that I balance and master

the tracks to sound great on regular headphones and speaker systems

this time I’ve taken the added step to make sure that if you are

bangin these mixcasts on your surround sound system

you’ll get improved sonic quality

custom mastered for a 5.1 environment!

November Knockin Part 3 in Stereo

With the holidays rapidly approaching and with a ton of some new tracks

 quite a few old ones, and a boat load of new software, it’s time to crunch out

some banging new mixes.

At the suggestion of a couple of fans who like the longer mixes

instead of the split ones that require you add them to a playlist,

I decided that it is time for a full length banger.

This one is on the electro, 8bit, and naturally minimalistic tip.

There are over 35 tracks spanning just short of 3 hours (by a few minutes).

Ann Nesby makes a revisit, this time in a slightly different fashion.

I’ve got some S Club 5  (yeah its ripped right out of the video game)

Kaskade and some of his new banging mashups make an appearance

Adam Beyer, Nicky Romero, Tommy Trash

the one and only Cajmere

Green Velvet

and a few new tracks that are unavailable, and heard here exclusively by

Fredda L (banging track absolutely banging)

Peter Pitzzutelli (you need to look this dude up)

Eddie Thoneick

Erick Deeks & Lauren Neko

Suzanne Vega (yes, AGAIN!)

brought up a really good oldie from iiO

Afrojack

Deniz Koyu

Christina Aguliera

Amy Winehouse

and the list goes on and on, and so do these beats.

This mix was done with a nice electro-minimalist vibe, and has some interesting presence.

It was so good, I had to embark on a new sonic mission I’ve had for over 10 years

I mastered this version of the mix to have regular stereo separation,

HOWEVER

in case you are one of those audiophiles, and you have an awesome system

or you just like to bang things out on your surround sound system

you might want to take a listen to the 5.1 mixdown version

that’s featured on the next posting!

Veterans Day Disc 2

 

 

 

With such a stellar beginning, how could I just end a disc like that?

How wrong of me I know, but then again, I’ve got the cure

DISC 2 is here with more of the madness!

Yeah more DJ Funk

More Sneak

and for this one…

BON JOVI!

I know, I lost my mind.

ENJOY!

Veterans Day 2011 Disc 1

Unfortunately, with the recent demise of the HCBD series of mixes

(R.I.P.)

and with the special day being 11-11-11

I had been mulling over this idea for quite some time.

I figured, why not make something a bit more fun than usual.

I wasn’t originally planning on making it for Veterans.

It doesn’t have much of a military theme to it either.

It’s just that it’s an unbridled let your hair down good time!

First off, this is the new mix as a result of the massive technology infusion of October.

The new lappy, new OS’es, and lots of other goodies have been tossed in.

With that, there has also been the massive procurement of music,

and a getting in touch with some old friends with some old goodies.

Where do I begin? I don’t know where I get these ideas, but for example…

who in a minimal mix throws in Nirvana?

ME

Jodeci? Wait wait, did I really type that…

YUP I dug up Jodeci!

CZR?

Me

Toss in some Danny Teneglia, Rosabel, Boris Rush,

This one is way to crazy to describe, and being spatially mixed for 5.1 enjoyment

Let’s say this one is audacious.  I hope you like it!

Diva’s revisited…

 

Happy Birthday Walter,

hope you had a chance to listen to it,

but you’re exclusivity reign ends here.

Ok back to the rest of the fans,

yeah, it was time to do something for the Divas!

You know we can’t leave them out of all the fun,

and besides, what’s better than listening to them work out!

Their vocal chords you perv!

Anyway, this one is chock full of surprises,

a couple new anthems and one or two from yesteryear

Selena Gomez, Jennifer Lopez, Ann Nesby (yes, I didn’t sutter either), not to mention Suzanne Palmer

Beyonce, Madonna,  even Amy Winehouse

and well, as always, you’ll just have to listen.

Cause dubbin’ is really MY game!

I’m bad, I know, but don’t worry, You’ll see an Ann Nesby VS RuPaul coming VERY SOON!

Until next time, yours in groove

Oldies yes OOOH soo goodies!!!

 

 

It’s been a wild and adventurous

month of September folks let me tell ya!

After a few system upgrades

and a few equipment failures,

BSOD’s, hard drive crashes,

and re-installation of Windows 7…

count it…..

7 times (who knew THAT’S what the 7 was for),

this latest beat foray is a continuation

of the Escaped From Da Basement series.

I figured I hadn’t updated it in a while and it was due for a new mix.

Besides, I had a few dusties

and well a few really good revisits

to some good old classics.

I’m a sucker for a good bootleg

and if it’s worthy of some good play,

I’m not beneath playing it!

Besides, these tracks only belong in a basement mix,

I mean we got Michael Jackson,

not only once but TWICE!!!

I got Newcleus, yeah, you read it right…Jam On It…

Toss in some Prince, Some Ralphi Rosario, A dash of Razor and Guido, and shake in some RuPaul for extra spice, spin at 132.6 bpm, and well…

This is what you got…take a listen!

Affiliating we will go…

 

 

 

During the course of my constant obsession with technology,

of course the incessant love affair with music

and the endless hours spent on the internet,

it only seems right that I take time to recognize and acknowledge

the companies and services that help me do what I do.

Each one has in some way shaped and molded my craft

and has contributed to the mixes you hear here.

Now what thank you would be complete without a

Mrs. Jackson-style

“What Have You Done For Me….Lately??”

LOL

Well, with that said, I’m sure that people will be asking as time goes on

what equipment do I use, have experience on, and where do I get it all?

That’s where the affiliating comes in to play…(ha ha naysayers…there IS a tie in)

Upon my webcrawling I found out that yes, when you visit my site,

or if you decide you want to acquire any DJ related tools,

software, or equipment yours truly can receive

nominal compensation for your purchasing consideration.

This will greatly help to off set the cost of production, procurement, and publishing.

Watch this space for future developments and links in the coming weeks for the affiliate links.

In the meantime, lets do some product placement shall we?

And no, this is by no means a complete or exhaustive list, but this will keep you busy for now…

Origins of the Diva Series Pt 1

 

What would the dance world be without Divas?

They make the songs we love to hear  and sing along with.

All the while doing it in such style, grace, and vocal prowess.

Making sure to leave their mark not only on our ears and hearts,

but also on the charts and dancefloors worldwide.

With those thoughts, and Palm Sunday approaching,

This newest series of mixes was born.

More affectionately entitled Divas,

the first round in this series was called

“Divas Beaten By Palms”

Originally a continuous mix, I decided to split it into

two full length CD sets for easier burning, downloading et al.

The cover speaks for itself, and is just a sampling of some of the greats

whose beats I work into a frenzy.

Everyone from Kylie,

Cher,

Janet,

Rihanna,

and even the quintessential diva herself…

Annie Lennox!

Of course, is that all the ones you can expect to hear?

I wouldn’t be DJ Nave E if it was.

Get ready, cause it’s time for some Palm Action…

with a little help from DJ Aulden Brown down in Miami

your version is the only Born This Way that I play…

and trippy effects
