(This is the other mix that Blogger deleted on me, so I'll try it again and hope it will stick if I use a different picture)
This mix is equal parts jaw-clenching rave and sugary sweet pop. I often try to strike a balance, because I find that the ravers will dance to anything (trust me, I've been there), but to get their sober friends/girlfriends dancing, often times you've got to play something slightly recognizable, something they might even know the lyrics to. And the mixes that I myself cue up on the iPod over and over again work on both levels as well: you can sing along while you're giving someone a backrub and hauling on a Blowpop. This is one of those mixes. Pay special attention to the Sinatra tune. Big up my Big Apple crew!
