The Friday Mix is a weekly podcast packed with new fresh house music. It’s improvised, recorded straight from the DJ decks. The Friday Mix covers house genres like electro house, future house, bass house, swag house, big room house, lounge house, tech house, funky house, disco house, but nothing is ever off the table as long as it’s good house music.

The title of this weeks episode ended up having two meanings. First of all, with the selection of future house with low play count, I set out to bring some rare new music to this mix. But in the middle, an obviously incorrectly tag track showed up, and I decided to go with it. A … Continue reading "#104 Intermission"…

No rest for the wicked! With the two hour special for episode 100 behind us, let’s kick off the next hundred episodes with a deep dive into my library to play tracks never played before. It’s futuristic EDM at it’s best. If there’s a common theme to this mix, it’s perhaps that it’s a little … Continue reading "#101 Unsung Heroes"…

A hundred episodes! Crazy! This little weekly project created to keep my DJ muscles in shape, turned podcast, and then turned 100 episodes. This episode is around 2 hours long, recorded in JP Store and features the highest rated funky house I’ve collected over the last couple of years. You’ve heard a lot of them … Continue reading "#100 The very be…

All gear still tucked away in preparation of selling the apartment, so this mix is pre-recorded a few days ahead, much like last weeks episode. This week the filter is set for the highest rated music in my library with the Future House tag, and I’ve improvised from there. Long time subscribers might recognise a … Continue reading "#99 Best of Futur…

Ok, so the next couple of weeks will be a little different. I’ve bought a house, which means we need to sell our apartment. To sell an apartment in Sweden, you got to style the hell out of it. So all nerdy personal stuff has had to go into storage, including the computer with my … Continue reading "#98 Best of Electro House"…

This week I’ve prepared a 24 course menu with the latest and greatest modern house has to offer at the moment. All these tracks are mere hours old in my DJ library. Most of them objectively new, a few just new to me. It’s varied, but hell if it isn’t banging. Have a great weekend! … Continue reading "#97 Daily catch"…

The rules for this podcast was clear. It shall be improvised, and I’m not allowed to re-record. I managed to live by these simple rules for 94 episodes. Thats almost two years straight of weekly mixes. But this week it happened, I tried to outdo myself mixing unknown and non-analyzed with no corrections or cue … Continue reading "#95 Anger mode"…

This week, on short notice, I dropped by the open air club, pub, restaurant and generally awesome place named Cafe Fluss down by the river in Gothenburg, for an open decks set. I thought I might share the set with you. It’s groovy, it’s techy, and full of world vibes. Have a great weekend! Find … Continue reading "#94 Cafe Fluss"…

So… due to planning related issues, this weeks mix had to be recorded on this publication Friday, on my balcony, among friends, after work. For that kind of setting, loungy house is perfect, so I dug deep in my collection and found some softer, smoother, deeper house, to fit the vibe; chilling out relaxing – … Continue reading "#92 Chillax"…

Time to push it! This week clocks in at a steady 130 bpm, making it the highest tempo house mix of the podcast so far.

The dive into the uncategorized music continues into this week. It’s futuristic, bouncy and shock full of energy, perhaps with a little extra swag to it this time around. Most of the tracks are not grid adjusted, cued or anything, so this week was a little extra sweaty. At times, you got about 30-60 seconds … Continue reading "#90 Swagger"…

Sat down the other day to think of a theme for this week, when I noticed I had a whole bunch of tracks that I had accidentally forgotten to categorize.

It’s time yet again for a key theme! With Episode 71 I stuck to E, and this week it’s the glorious day of D-Flat Minor (or 12A for you Mixed In Key wielding DJs). As you might assume, it’s a diverse mix. And for some reason, it has a commercial vibe to it. I guess … Continue reading "#88 D-Flat Minor"…

I might have outdone myself with silly themes this week. For this weeks episode, I present a mix containing only house music with the word house in the track title. Silly, I know.

Sorry for the late Friday arrival, had to record in the morning. So this one’s fresh out the oven. And this week, back once again with a followup to the Improv episode some twenty weeks ago.

This week I went for the music in my library marked as “smart house”, whatever that is. The result is a techy and deep house mix, good for hallucinative chair dancing perhaps? I don’t know.

This week it’s all about the random tracks floating around in my library never getting much of any airtime. They’re great, but for different reasons never showing up in my theme filters, sometimes (almost always) due to poor tagging from myself or perhaps difficulties with cues or grids.

Two months ago I did one mix of remixes (#74) and one mix of originals (#75).

Perhaps the most ridiculous theme so far; I gathered all tracks containing the words “out”, “ride” and “riding” and went to action. Reason? This show had to be recorded a little earlier this week, since this Friday and weekend, I’ll be out riding on a motorcycle trip–off grid–into the northern woods of Sweden.

I haven’t done a deep house mix since episode 3. That’s way too long, especially when I have so much great deep house in my collection.

The theme for this week is remixes! Library set to only show funky future house in remix versions. Not an original mix in sight. It’s a solid mix, but I’ll admit it’s not my best.

That Witcher show on Netflix certainly seems popular. And the earworm Toss a coin to a witcher sure is trending online. Do you know what that song doesn’t need? An electro house remix.

Quick simplified lesson about music theory: Minor means sad, Major means happy. For some reason, most EDM is written in Minor. So let’s not begin this new decade with a sad vibe.

Merry X-mas and happy holidays or what have you! For this week I decided to go for a tiny X-mas related theme. So how do you apply X-mas to an EDM mix? Well, anyway you can.

Isn’t this show always improvised, you might say? Well yes it is.

Is it deep house? Is it tech house? What is it?! Beats me. But they were right there for the taking, most of them never played even once, and they’re awesome.

A nasty fever knocked me of my feet the other day, so I’ve had to be creative for this weeks episode.

There’s always that bunch of tracks where bpm, key or grid analysis is off. I’ve saved fixing those for a later day. But that later day never arrives.

With the least amount of foresight so far in the history of this show, this weeks episode was recorded Friday morning, only an hour before this episode was released. This week I kept it simple.
