dattrax: Welcome Fellow Fans of House Music to where house resides. How are you doing? How are the many areas of your life in the part of the world where you are?
I was thinking the other day about the life of a good house music track and how many people it touches and influences. Imagine the producer who creates a track and all that it takes to accomplish that. Then, a DJ finds the track on an MP3 site to purchase or a download promo on a music platform.
Then, the DJ listens to the track repeatedly to learn about it. To funny enjoy it. Then, they mix it along with a set of tracks that they have organized for a live DJ set or a recorded mix.
Then someone listens to it. How do they feel? Where are they? Who are they with? What new memories are created? Do they share with friends on social media? Close friends? Does that track get multiple plays? Does it get experienced in different environments? Does it get consumed during various personal activities?
It's a long and beautiful journey that touches, influences and brings positive emotions to many many people.
It crosses geography, gender, race, religion and anything else that makes us different and yet we're united by a shared experience, joy and love.
All the best to you in your daily battle against the negative of your mind. May you move closer and more decisively towards your dreams and goals.

dattrax: Welcome my Fellow Brothers and Sisters to where house music resides. Hope all is well in your corner of the world. I'm an old Chinaman who loves house music. I don't know shit. I know me. What I love and don't. What I am and not. Unapologetically me. I've learned a shit ton from bad people, from great and loving people and from the mistakes that I've made. That I own 100% along the way in this journey of life. Lessons from examining my past. Let's change what we can and discard the rest. One thing at a time. One problem at a time. The battles each day are NOT with the dumb motherfuckers trying to crush you. Thinking that you are weak. Mistaken your kindness as such. They are insignificant. Ignore them. The real battle is against ourselves and in our minds and hearts. We have to be our best cheerleader. Not critic. Not judge. We mess up. Fine. Accept the responsibility and concequences. Fuck it. It's over. Next. Negative people. Don't waste any energy on them. Their struggle is on infinite loop. Feel sorry for them. Ignore their ignorant beings. Enlightenment isn't for them. We celebrate life. Restoration. Reconciliation. Love. Achievement. Health. Wealth for our loved ones and our communities. We brighten up and encourage those who we get the privilege to touch every day Happy 2025!!! Let's fucking go!!! Enjoy yourself Maddafrackers. Relish and cherish every fucking moment . These are my Chinese fortune cookies for today. For YOU. Much love and respect. Thank you for checking out this mix. I appreciate you. You could have chosen to spend your time anywhere else you'd like. Thank you. All the best to you. Cheers dattrax --------------- IMAGE CREDIT: This is a pic of my dear friend, Wanye and I.

dattrax: Welcome my Fellow House Fiends to where house music resides. Hope all is well in your corner of the world. This mix took forever. Geez. I just couldn't get it right. The way that I wanted it to feel. This is the seventh attempt. Yes, LMAO. I cheated too. I stitched half of the 6th attempt with a new 40mins or so. LMAO. Each attempt had great moments and then pure shit!! I want to only post mixes that I'd want to listen to over and over again. Don't want throwaway mixes that no one gives a shit about. There's a beauty in this art form. The ultimate form of self expression. You can feel a DJ's energy and emotions. I feel the same way about DJ'ing live. Which is completely different than making a mix BTW. I'd rather have 30 people who love dancing to house music in front of me and we're making eye contact. Hi-fiving each other in the air. That's house music. I 'd rather that then be at a massive event with thousands of people where no one gives a shit if you're spinning or not. Enough of my elitist house rant. LMAO. It's not important. What's reallly important is what you get out of a mix. Just at the end of this mix, did you enjoy yourself? Did you smile? Did you forget your troubles for an hour or so? If so, then my mission is accomplished. House music Baby. It heals. Washes. Refreshs. Renew. So you can go do life struggles and triumphs again 💜 Thank you for checking out this mix. I appreciate you. You could have chosen to spend your time anywhere else you'd like. Thank you. All the best to you.

dattrax: Welcome my Fellow House Fiends to where house music resides. Hope all is well in your corner of the world. We're moving into the cooler autumn in Toronto, Canada. How's the weather in your location? I've told some friends last weekend that I wish that I could quit this addiction/obession. Really. Truthfully. I'd love to be able to quit. Just bought 64 new tracks from Traxsource. I'm 50 years young, but should've been done with DJ'ing, going dancing to house music, buying house music decades ago. LMAO. This addiction drives me mad and yet has been so therapeutic, so wonderful. Mixed feelings. It is what it is. Although I wish that I could be normal and just golf, fish or collect stamps, any other 'normal' man's hobby. Geez. The most beautiful house music is being created today. Took me weeks to find these new 64 gems. Less than half are in this new mix that you're about to experience. Mixed with a few gems that came to mind. Good house music is timeless. I've heard this mix two times and going on a third today. I FREAKING LOVE IT. LOVED MAKING IT. This is one of my best works. My hope is that you love listening and dancing to this. I hope that I can give you this two hour escape from whatever is stressing you, so that this beautiful music can refresh you. Then you can tackle the obstacle that is in your way to attaining your objectives. I hope that you win the battles in your mind each day and then move forward with improving yourself, your life and all the lucky humans that cross your path. That's my Chinese fortune cookie for you. Lol Cheers dattrax Image: My doggie, Tommy. In this pic, he's sleeping but looks like he's doing some doggie Kung-Fu moves. This was such a cute pic. I put it through some filters.

dattrax: Welcome my Fellow House Fiends to where house music resides. Hope all is well in your corner of the world. It's chilly AF here in Toronto, Canada as we're in our Autumn season. Thank you for stopping by and giving this new mix a listen. Much appreciated. Here's a little something I wrote for myself, but want to share with you. Hope it brightens your day along with this new mix. "Who knows why we are dealt the cards that we have gotten? Some are good cards, some are blessed. Some are poor all the way to horrific. Some rare encouraging people in our lives will tell us that we're special. That we are destined to do good. That we matter. Some tell us that we're nothing. Don't deserve anything. Less than nothing. Some will be kind to us and some will treat us with distain. What they do to us isn't as important as how we decide to react. At the end of the day..., more accurately... At the beginning of each day, we decide what we are. A chance to forgive ourselves and move forward. We decide to let go or to hold on. We decide on which thoughts to entertain and which to discard. We decide if we're going to be a victim or a volunteer. Each day is a new opportunity to reinvent ourselves. A wasted life or one that brings sunshine into each person that we encounter. We decide which choices to make. Which actions to take. We decide to start now or to put it off. To fight or make peace. We decide what we think, how we feel, what we do and who we are. We can decide who we want to become. Are we better than we were before? Than yesterday?" Well..., that's my Chinese fortune cookie for the day. All the best to you. I hope that you win the battles in your mind each day and then move forward with improving yourself, your life and all the lucky humans that cross your path.

dattrax: Welcome my Fellow House Fiends to where house music resides. Thank you so much for taking a listen. I appreciate you. I hope this makes you smile a little. Coming out of the vaults... This is a test session from 2009 that I'm posting. It has no rhyme or reason. LMAO. It's not how I'd do it now, but... I was 35 yrs old when I made this. I'm 50 now, so that's 15yrs ago. I have no idea what I was thinking when I made this. House music is felt. Not explained. Enjoy or not. All the best to you and those you love.

dattrax: Welcome my Fellow House Fiends to where house music resides. House music is so beautiful. It either grabs you or it doesn't. Doesn't need explaining or convincing. You feel it in your gut, you smile uncontrollably and you want to put your hands in the air or dancing. I've loved house music since I was 15yrs old. DJ'ing and starting buying vinyl records at 18. I'm 50 now and just bought 20 new tracks for this new session. It took over a month to hunt down these 20 that move me. After I waited for the 20% discount code that https://www.traxsource.com/ emails me as a subscriber. Then I listened to this batch for 2-3 days. House music is my #1 hobby, artistic outlet, therapeutic sandbox and emotional release. Anything to do with it. Finding/hunting for tracks, listening to mixes to be inspired, learn and enjoy. Mixing tracks that move me and dancing. I have rules there, so that I'm in maximum enjoyment and peace. I make my mixes for me. Second, for my best friend, Jimmy. Anyone else who likes or enjoys it is gravy—a bonus. I hope that this session will put a smile on your face and brighten your day. All the best to you. Thank you for choosing to listen to this new session. Cheers dattrax --------------- How do we describe the dattrax sound?

dattrax: Welcome Fellow House Headz!! Ready for a new sonic excursion? How are things in your corner of the world? Are you kicking butt in all your endeavours? Are you staying positive despite challenging circumstances and people? Hi-five to you!! Let's escape a little through soul-refreshing house music. I loved making this mix. It took almost 3wks to prep 200 or so tracks for this mix. Then I dwindled it down to 120 or so. I was dancing and mixing through 66 tracks in almost 3hrs. Topic detour: As a 50yr old single/divorced man who has four wonderful children with the love of his life for 24yrs, I've had some interesting life experiences. 20yrs before dating her and the last almost 7 years not married to her. A decade as a crazy restaurant manager in a downtown Toronto hotspot. DJ'ing for 35yrs or more. Working in digital marketing for 17yrs and specifically as an SEO and SEM manager for 14yrs out of those 17. I REALLY REALLY wish that I learned these few gems at 12yrs old. No one teaches boys anything useful about girls. When you ask men of varying ages what their main challenges are, what do they say? Money or women. Life-Saving Advice for 12yr old Boys & Beyond "Watch where you put your signature or your dick." "Don't go after another man's wife." "Don't cum where you eat." "Don't fuck crazy." Did you laugh? Funny because they're true. That was my Chinese fortune cookie for you today. All the best to you. Cheers, dattrax --------------- How do we describe the dattrax sound?

dattrax : Welcome Fellow House Seekers!! Thank you for taking us for a spin. We appreciate you. How have you been? Good and bad things happened in your life? Be your best cheerleader. Fight and win the daily battles in your mind. You are your competition. Trying to better the older version of you. I think about all the house music DJs that I love to dance to in this great city; they're all different. I think about my DJ gigs, many of them are very different. I feel like dancing to some tracks. To some moments. I don't feel like it other times. Because I love dancing, I know what I want. When I'm DJ'ing, I'm giving myself what I want when I'm dancing. Have fun and play what moves you. Some will love it, some won't. No big deal. As long as we 100% only play tracks that MOVE us. We'll be fine. My friend, Caco gave this mix's name: "Sound Hug Yaa-uuM" He said that some tracks feel like they're reaching out to hug him. I thought that this is a wonderful description of great house tracks. They hug you in sound and emotions. Just a few thoughts to share with you. Thank you for listening to this mix. Have a great week. I hope you crush everything you want to accomplish. All the best to you. Cheers, dattrax --------------- How do we describe the dattrax sound?

dattrax: Welcome Fellow House Muisic Aficionadot to where house music resides. I hope that all is well in your corner of the world. Thank you for taking a listen to our brand of house music. [We've loved this special art form since we were 15yrs old and now 50. We've gone past the stage where people might ask, 'Aren't you too old for...' by decades. LMAO]. There are dozens of house DJs that I listen to, so I know that choice is abundant, so I appreciate it when someone would take time from their lives to check out a mix. It makes me happy thinking about people smiling and bopping their heads while driving or walking their doggies or working out or cleaning their homes to our mixes or any other activity. Till Next Time. Cheers, dattrax --------------- How do we describe the dattrax sound?

dattrax: Welcome Fellow House Fiends. Welcome to where house music resides. I'm a fanatic when it comes to work » SEO (and other digital marketing and business areas) and play » house music. I think obsessive-compulsive is the term that therapists would use. Add to that, I don't sleep. LMAO. I've loved house music since I was 15, and at 50, it still endlessly fascinates me. House music is a unique art form, and how each DJ can express themselves is endless in the possibilities. Whether I'm hunting for the goosebumps tracks that move me, listening to mixes, mixing or dancing to it. It relaxes me and does so much more for me. When it stops being fun, then I'll quit. I've been too old for this for decades. Do you have a passion in your life, like music or another art form? The ability to express yourself through your passion is a powerful life-affirming gift. If you can earn a living from that, then you're truly winning in life. Releasing negative emotions through a medium that we can use to work through our thoughts and feelings, that energy transfer is both therapeutic and transformative. Turning stress, pain or joy into something beautiful for someone else to enjoy. Nothing quite like that. That's my Chinese fortune cookie for the day. Now to some sweet sounds of the underground » 31 Tracks in 1hr and 38mins!!! All the best to you and those you hold dear. Cheers, dattrax --------------- How do we describe the dattrax sound?

dattrax: Welcome Fellow House Fanatics. Ready for a new mix? This is a deep house exclusive, a bit different than the usual dattrax sound. If you love house, then I'm hoping this puts a smile on your face and make your body shake while you're trying to restrain yourself because you're not at a house music party. LMAO. One electronic music producer who worked for a year at 7West named David, and Favian who's a great friend and a talented house head DJ and producer, both have said that the house music tracks that I spin are usually all made with minor keys. Favian said that these are the sad/melancholy sounds. Very cool. You learn something every day. Remember Kids, from Uncle Yellow Hat to you: "Win the battles in your head with yourself each day. You decide to be happy and stop talking negative to yourself. Be your best cheerleader. Take one day at a time with your best efforts. Dump and forget any bad shit because it's the past. Nothing you can do about it. Dance to some house music to wash away any pain. Be refreshed. Be of good cheer. Carry on with what makes you alive and happy." That's my Chinese fortune cookie for you. All love and respect to a fellow house fan. All the best to you and till the next time. We have over 180 mixes here. Please check some out.

dattrax: Welcome Fellow House Fanatics. Did you have a tough week? Let some fantastic house tracks wash all that away. Even if only for a few hours. This long weekend ends on Monday, July 1st as we celebrate Canada Day. Happy Canada Day Folks!!! What a wonderful country. Toronto has been my home since I was five years old escaping from Saigon, South Vietnam. I can talk about how much I love this city, this country and the people I've met along the way in the past five decades. The house music since I was 14 or 15 that I've experienced in this city has been mind-blowing to me. It's so inspirational. House music, whether receiving it on the dancefloor or giving it out as a DJ. It's the ultimate personal expression and therapeutic outlet. This is MixTwo of "Like a Kiss". This is a more aggressive and charging mix. MixOne is more mellow. It was soooo much fun to make. This was done in one take. MixOne took six attempts over a month and went in every direction except the vibe that I was chasing. The journey is part of the fun and discovery of this great genre of music—this beautiful art form. Have a fantastic rest of your week. All the best to you wherever you're coming from. Thank you for stopping by and giving this mix a listen. Enjoy this ride. Cheers, dattrax --------------- How do we describe the dattrax sound?

dattrax: Welcome to all the people out there who love house music. This is where house resides. I just turned 50!!! Old, bald, Chinaman. but... I have loved house music since I was 15 years old. House has been an outlet for me to release ALL my negative energy... whether I'm listening to house music. Hunting, finding, mixing, dancing or enjoying house music. Talking about it with other people. Dreaming about combinations. Every track that I love. I dream of how to introduce it to people. It's all about the combos!! Transforming the negative—anger, despair, hopelessness—and turning that energy into something beautiful, something that will make you smile. As you smile, you have a vivacious spark that grows into something good. Because we all need a little encouragement, we all have dreams and plans. We want to design our lives. It must first be the image in our minds in detail. Our real battles are with our minds. Stop talking bad to yourself. You fucked up. Great. It's over. Done. Forget about it. Let's dance. Love everyone. Avoid negative. That's my Chinese fortune cookie rant for you. Much love, dattrax. I mixed and danced my heart out on this one—almost five hours!!! I made some goodies for you. Enjoy this journey. You're going to LOVE THIS!!!!! Connect with us!!! Please tell us how you feel through these sessions. How are you? I hope for the best for you. You can do what you want to do. Take that first step. Thank you for listening to our house music sessions from Toronto, Canada. We are thankful for our lives and this fucking beautiful, gorgeous, wonderful, fascinating music. Where you can take what you like and combine it with something else you like. It's beautiful. A musical collage of all the sounds that you love, mashed up in the way that you like it.

dattrax: Hello Fellow Seekers of House Music!! Welcome to where house converges. All dozen plus sub-genres of house. I love a little bit of everything. Looking to create a groove that people gravitate to each time I play. Where I'm DJ'ing to 100 people that love my choices and styles house music VERSUS 10,000 who don't give a shet about who's DJ'ing because they're there reasons beside the house music.
