I had the honor of playing at The Carry Nation in early April and had the time of my life! It was a real treat to pay homage to my house music heroes and, of course, my DJ mom and dad: Nita Aviance and DJ Will Automagic. This is one of my favorite sets I've ever played, and I'm grateful for the recording so you can all enjoy it whenever you want to…

Below is a podcast featuring my favorite artists (whether they're the original o…

Here's a new mixtape I made especially for Occupy the Disco (OXD). The title, "Makes Me Wanna Give It," is a nod to the Duke Dumont track, 'Giver' that has made the crowd go absolutely wild at previous OXD events (both Aeroplane and The Magician played the track at the climax of their sets). I've built the mixtape around that track and created an e…

It all started when someone asked me the question: what songs would be on the soundtrack of your life? When it comes to feelings, i certainly am not the most articulate person. That probably explains why I'm so obsessed with music, it's therapeutic as it helps me articulate how I feel. Whether I'm up or down, I always find it's best to commiserate …

Here it is, my favorite tracks of 2011. This mix is eclectic, different than my year end compilations of the years past, mostly because pop music took a turn for the worse this year. That being said these are definitely my top songs of this year (in no particular order). You may notice a few glaring omissons but i saved those for my next Ru-Mix whi…

Created exclusively for Made in Brazil, this mix picks up where "Ru-Mix: Better Than Love" left off and uses the same dreamy disco dance beats to convey a tale of unrequited affection. Yes, that summer faux-mance is over, ever unconsummated, and the only way to cope is to bring that heartbreak right where it belongs: the dancefloor! 01. Record Coll…

Summer 2010 was the best summer I've ever had. In fact, I still have a bit of a summer hangover so I've created a great "goodbye summer" mix.

When people ask me what my favorite type of music is my favorite (a question that is truly hard to answer) I invariably say disco. Something about that 4/4 beat will get me going every time. That's why this mix is really my baby. The beginning is fun, shiny solid gold disco featuring Monarchy (I'm obsessed!), Uffie, Katy Perry, and new disco favs, …
