G's House Sessions

August 2008 House Mix

This month's mix is a shorter, more concise set. I threw in some deep house instrumental cuts around track 4 to change things up a bit & moved back to the vocal house starting with track 7.

Take note of tracks 2 & 3, those are hot. Especially track 3.

Enjoy!

今日, 僕は みんなさんに ほかのミックスを持っています. 先月のミックスより今月のミックスのほうが 短いです. これに ちょっと とっても ディープハウス と いい ボーカルハウスが あります.

私には 二番目 と三番目のトラックが 一番 大好きです. 両方の歌が 熱いだと思います.

みんなさん 聞いて下さい.

どうぞ.

August 2008 Mix Complete

My latest mix is complete & should be up within the next couple of days. I'm evening out the levels & running a couple of EQ passes on some sections that were sounding a bit thin. I'm also working on fixing some stereo separation issues that a listener had noticed on the last couple of mixes.

It's taking some time since I have to go through the entire mix a track at a time to do all this work, but it'll result in a better sounding mix.

Next!

Work on my August is almost complete. I'm about 10 tracks into the set & it's shaping up quite well. I was thinking of dusting off some older tracks for this set. Stuff I cut my teeth on so to speak. I also have a few recent pickups that I'll be adding as well.

Many have probably noticed that I've been dragging my mixes out a little longer than usual. Well, I have a lot of stuff that I've been wanting to play & the result is a longer set & a bigger MP3 file. I don't know if I'm going to return to a CD friendly time for my future mixes or not. It depends on what I'm feeling at the time I guess.

Moving Day

Well that was quick. Most of the mixes are now re-directed to new links & I have kept the old page download links live for those who don't trust direct download.

The only ones that don't have updated links are May 2008, February 2007 & November 2007. I have to re-upload the files for those later. They should be available by the end of the day I think. Continue downloading & please let me know if there are any problems.

Thanks much.

Moving Day

Today I'll be changing my file hosting account. That means that the Sendspace links may become unavailable during my account upgrade. That also means that I'll be removing the Linkup download links when the change is complete. 

Sorry for the inconvenience, but as I said before this must be done.

Moving Stuff Around

Starting next week I'm going to be migrating my files over to a Sendspace Pro account. Some files may become unavailable during that time but I'll do my best to ensure that all links are available in a timely manner. I would have done this earlier but I dropped a couple of bills on an iPhone 3G (very sweet by the way) so I have to wait until I get paid again to upgrade my account.

Hopefully this won't be too much of an inconvenience, but it must be done in order to continue this part of the site. Please be patient during this time of transition.

Thanks.

File Hosting

I think I found my solution to my file hosting problems from a source I didn't think of. Sendspace. Yeah, I mocked them in my last post a little but I found out that they actually offer file hosting packages. I signed up as a Sendspace Max user many moons ago. That account made me a premium downloader & allowed me to finish my collection of Hello! Morning episodes quickly.

I'm more of an uploader now so I'm going to change my account to Sendspace Pro. I'm thinking of purchasing a 6 month Pro Active account. That will give me 50 GB of storage (my files only add up to 4.78 GB so far) & 640GB of bandwidth. That should be sufficient enough for my needs I think.

I'm going to convert one of my existing Sendspace links to a direct download one to see if it works as intended. If so, then I'll convert my account & start migrating my files over.

F*ck!

Just when I think everything is cool something has to come along to fuck things up. I have used Streamload/MediaMax/The Linkup (yes they've had many name changes) for a few years. I have even vented my frustrations with their service here but have always stuck by them.

When I go to check on my account this message is on their home page. This really sucks as I depend heavily on services like this to bring y'all the content on my entire blog. So I'm looking for some suggestions for a file hosting service that meets the following criteria:

1. A decent amount of file storage for a reasonable price. I was paying $30/mo for 200 GB of storage.

2. Unlimited bandwidth, or at least enough bandwidth for me to continue the service I provide.

3. Direct download link capability. My podcast. remixes & music review section depend heavily on direct access to the files. A service like Sendspace isn't going to cut it.

I am willing to pay a premium if the features of any service go well beyond what I'm looking for. The search is on for a new home for my files. Any help from y'all out there would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks much,

G

July 2008 House Mix

This a long set. As you listen you'll notice that everything has a very similar vibe both musically & lyrically except near the end where things get a little more upbeat. That was very intentional since I wanted something I could chill out to mostly.

I packed this with a lot of really sweet tracks. The one's to take note of are Kem - Love Calls (Darryl James Remix), Kemal feat. Leslie Carter - Can't Help (Main Mix) & Misia - Close To My Heart (Eric Morillo Vocal Mix). The Misia track is my favorite, love the vocal on that one.

Anyway, enjoy!

私の次のミックスを終りました. このセットが長いです (90分). だから これが CDに 合いません.

このミックスにたくさんの歌は 同じな音があります. じゃあ, 終りまで 音が同じです. それからちょっと アップ テンポーになります.

みんなさん, 聞いて下さい.

どうぞ.

Next!

My July mix is done. I'm currently going over it making sure the levels are clean & that there are no audible skips, pops or any digital processing artifacts. It should be up by (maybe) the weekend. I went 90 minutes for this one. I had a certain feel that I wanted to convey with this set & cutting it down by 10 minutes to fit on a CD would ruin the vibe.

I put some pretty sweet tracks in this mix. I think y'all will be really feeling it.

Next!

I recently started compiling the track list for the July House mix. I have a certain kind of sound I'm going for so I haven't started mixing it yet. I'm kind of shuffling songs around making sure I get everything flowing properly. My last 2 mixes lacked any sort of focus or direction & I don't want to repeat that again.

I think this will turn out well in the end. I know for sure that it will run a little long & I'm not cutting it down to fit on a CD as I don't want to ruin the overall vibe of the set. I have no set release date for this one. It'll be done when it's done.
