Happy holidays to all of you! I’m glad I had the chance to wrap this one up in time for your end-of-year celebrations and I hope you’re going to play it loud! Lots of “christianized” tracks you won’t hear anywhere else, including my home-mad remix of Mojado’s “Free your mind”. Lots of new stuff mixed with some relics like some 2006 remixes of Tony di Bart and Moby, 18 tracks in all, squeezed in 76 minutes to keep it uplifting and energetic… Works with me! My fav bits: 1-2-3-4, 10-11, 13-14… Again, enjoy your parties and see you sometimes in 2009!

I did it again: just after posting « Replay », I went out and heard a fantastic track (courtesy of the excellent Mikey D) “Soul Central – Time after time” and, of course, it HAD to be on my mix. So I do what I do: christianize it, mix it in and post another version “Replay V2”… Apologies for the inconvenience, but I’m sure you will like that one better. I know I do! I’ll leave both versions on for the same low price :). Same blurb follows with the updated track listing! “Replay” comes after 6 months of not posting anything ; I had 2 almost-ready mixes that I wasn’t fully satisfied with. Instead, I decided to wait until I had a bit of inspiration which I found 2 weeks ago, thanks to Jason Prince and an uber-catchy track which samples an old Madonna song “Rain”. “Replay” uses and abuses samples and loops taken from that track and I’ve worked a lot to put together all the tracks I love at this moment, most of them “christianized” in order to make 19 tracks fit on a 80-minute CD. As usual, you can expect big bass sounds and a variety of styles in there (housey, poppy, rocky, all uplifting though), lots of Wawa (again!) and some mixes I really like: 2-3, 4-5, 6-7-8, 8-9 (my favourite), 15-16 which mixes “Children of the Sun” from and into “Rain”, and the new end! I do hope you enjoy the result ; if so, let me know and post comments on this podcast and on iTunes and spread the word around! (My ego needs a bit of boost these days!)

Track listing : 1. Tikaro Jlouis Ferran ft Rebeka Brown - ”Real things” (Vocal 2) 2. David Rubato - "Deep Inside” (Allister Whitehead christianized) 3.

Surprise Party! (April 2008)

Never trust a house music junkie when he says he’s gonna stop! To all of you who have expressed their support, friendship and appreciation, I’ve decided to throw a “Surprise Party!”, live from San Francisco... vwhich explains the, hem, RAW sound and artwork :) but, hey, it's a party! And this party is specially dedicated to Richard and Tony, founders and soul of Trax Records in London who have decided to move on with their lives as of May 3rd 2008. During many years they have supplied fantastic tunes to the London Clubbing Scene and for the past 3 years, I’ve been lucky enough to enjoy their friendship and passion for music. Together with the rest of the Trax Team (Craig and Oli), they have supported me, right from the early days of “Bitch is Back!” and, thanks to them, I’ve found many of the hard-to-get tracks featured in this podcast. Let’s just say that May 3rd will be a sad day for me and I can only hope that Trax will live on, under one form or another, as a place to meet friends, chat about music and bitch about the weather. You can’t get do all that online… I know I’ll be there to enjoy the experience to its fullest: Trax Records, 55 Greek Street, London W1D 3DT, 020 7734 0795! “Surprise Party!” starts with an Uber-Christianized track by Tina Bride (kick-ass bass mix courtesy of Dexxlab!), followed by Nick Wahlberg’s “Just shake it”, a flute-driven (!!!) vocal house anthem (I’m quite sure you’ve never heard those tracks before :) You will also find a fair share of more commercial tracks (plenty of Gold & Smax again!): Till West, Addictive, Denis the Menace, Hard Fi… and some rarities like the latest Chris Punk (a cover of Daft Punk’s Aerodynamic) and the closing track (Moonbootica, Jan Delay, anyone?) which sounds like Daft Punk would sound now if they still made music… Of course, some tracks have been “christianized”, and not just because I love this word (!) but to punch them up… Enjoy your “Surprise Party!”, keep dancing, take good care of yourself and say hello, it’s always nice to hear from you… Lotsa love, Christian. PS: of course, to illustrate “Surprise Party!”, I’ve used yet another masterpiece by Keith Haring, called “Best buddies”… Fitting… Track Listing: 1. Tina Bride - "Close to you" (Dexxlab mix christianized) 2. Nick Wahlberg - "Just shake it" (Vocal) 3. Denis the menace - "Fired up" (Cahill mix) 4. Addictive ft T2 - "Gonna be mine" (Simmons & Christopher Dub) 5. Replay ft Rhalmia - "Everyday is Saturday" (DJ Ditch Delektro mix christianized) 6. The Power Lords - "Lords of the string" (Uniting Nations Dub) 7. Chris Punk - "Aerodynamic" 8. Buzz Junkies ft Elesha - "If you love me" (Buzz Junkies & Thomas Gold Christianized) 9. Hott 22 ft Bonnie Bailey – “No promises” (Thomas Gold dub christianized) 10. Viola Wills - "Enjoy yourself" (short 7th Heaven instrumental mix) 11. Ritmo Playaz ft Paula P Cay - "Get together" (short Fox 5 remix) 12. Till West & Eddie Thoneick vs Alexandra Prince - "Hi’n’Bye" (Smax & Gold mix) 13. Hard Fi - "I shall overcome" (Axwell remix) 14. Vinilfreaker ps Eddie Bitz - "Fire in your eyes" (Stargroove remix) 15. Pure Dynamite & Live Element - "Downtime" (short Flah Brothers remix) 16. DJ DLG - "Xess" (Mason remix) 17. Moonbootica / Jan Delay - "Der Mond" (Hey Today remix) read less

As promised last week, this is “The Latest & Greatest” which will be the last episode of this podcast! In 5 months, 5 new mixes & 5 old ones, I’ve tried to bring you the best upfront uplifting house music I could possibly mix with my personal style of christianized tracks and 3-minute-long mixes. It’s an extremely time consuming passion (just finding enough good tracks is a mission!) and I would like to stop while the passion is still there: I don’t want to end up like other podcasters, just posting 12 average tracks mixed lazily beginning to end (although this does seem to be a popular thing to do :) Many thanks to all of you who took the time to download & listen to my mixes, the response has been fairly impressive. Extra special super thanks to the few of you who were kind enough to spread the word, or drop me a support note or a comment: that deeply touched me (special note to my reviewers on iTunes, BB & Lee: you almost made me change my mind about stopping now!). Don’t forget to send me an email at TheWorldIsMyHouse@podomatic.com and I’ll find a way to get you my new stuff! For this last episode, we start with a wicked remix of Chaka Khan & Daft Punk (courtesy Pascal at Le Depot, Paris!), then a mix of an all star cast (Deux, Wawa, Smax & Gold, Stonebridge, Ian Carey, Spencer & Hill, etc.), hot promos (special thanks to Utah Saints for being so kind!) and the usual obscure tracks and remixes! We close with Amy & Britney, as my personal tribute to all the troubled souls in this world… As per usual, half the tracks have been “christianized” for your pleasure (and mine, obviously!) and my favourite mixes are 7-8 and 11-12. Told you I was happy with myself ;) Enjoy, keep dancing, take good care of yourself and see you around, it’s a small world! Lotsa love, Christian. PS: whenever you’re in a club and the music is bad, vote with your feet and leave the dance floor. It works! If the music is good, don’t hesitate to tell the DJ, it’s always nice! Track Listing: 1. Daft Punk vs Chaka Khan - "Ain't no Television" (christianized) 2. Deux - "The time is now" (Original club mix) 3. One night only - "Just for tonight" (Seamus Haji mix christianized) 4. Eako & Morelli ft Barbara Evans - "You make me crazy" (Club) 5. SIA - "The girl you lost to cocaine" (Stonebridge mix christianized) 6. Wawa vs Hilary - "Stranger" (Albert Castillo Club Mix) 7. September - "Cry for you" (Spencer & Hill Dub) 8. Solee - "Different" (Roman Salzger Mix) 9. Sonique - "Put a spell on you" (Carrison vs Scorpio christianized) 10. Utah Saints - "Something Good" (E-squire Mix) 11. Rozalla - "Faith 2008" (Ian Carey Mix) 12. Mindcrap - "Alone" (Non vocal mix) 13. Dizkodude - "Open your mind" (Peter Luts mix christianized) 14. J.
