Episode 24-Surrender Unto Him: Give Praise, Let's Worship, Let's Dance-Volume 24
October 15, 2010 11:54 AM PDT
This mix is a different genre. You see,I've been through a lot lately and have embraced my faith which has laid dormant for quite a few years. I was inspired to create a music mix that would allow a spiritual outlet of inspiration and belief. This mix was put together to help me get through what has been a very difficult time in my life. Music has always been an escape for me and what better way to help me cope with things I couldn't even begin to understand. Music is spiritually uplifting; and this mix is sure to lift the mind, body, and soul. All through praise! With that said; I wish to share this mix with you. Hopefully, you will feel just as uplifted and you will spread the word through music. May this mix provide an outlet, crutch, or support for all who listen. God Bless All!-Big Rog A Modern Music Mix of Praise with many featured music artists, pastors, & poets : Nitro Praise, Ci Jay, Sounds of Blackness, Joel Osteen, Kirk Franklin, Puchi Colon, Hector Lavoe, Michelle Bonilla, The Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir, Creflo Dollar, Marilyn Ashford Brown, Brenda Halloway, CeCe Winans, joy Enriquez, and poet Jessie Fisher.

August 16, 2010 06:55 PM PDT
This is the SECOND in a series of mixes that take you back to the clubs and parties. The time period of 1983 to 1990. There is a mixture of genres here. It starts off on a house tip with soulful and latino favorites then dives into and finishes with the freestlye, loft, and new wave era of music. This my friends is not your typical throwback. Just like the title says, "For those of you that rolled wit' me." There are tracks on here you will definitely remember hearing in the clubs and parties of the Bronx and the rest of NYC. Clubs like : 10-18, The Tunnel, The Palladium, The Latin Quarter, Limelight, Danceteria, Roxy, Les Poulets, Latin Quarter, Studio 54, La Mirage, The Devil's Nest, Lemon Tree, Red Zone, Studio 54, The Copacabana, The Fun House, China Club, etc. You will also hear tracks from parties and venues we all attended in the Boogie Down: The Chez Sensual, Kips Bay Parties, Stevenson Commons, Skatin Palace and Skate Key. The infamous St John's University OLAS parties and the memorable Fordham Prep Spanish Club parties!!! Am I taking yall back? Enjoy the mix my friends. No playlist for this cause it's too many too mention and I want to post it for all your barbecues this weekend. Enjoy and as always appreciated your comments please....Big Rog is outta here!!!

This next set is very unique. My younger brother's 40th Birthday recently passed. My sister in law asked me to make a danceable mix to hand out as party favorites during this special event. She tells me; and here's the catch, " Make it with songs from 1970!"

So if you're in the mood for some guitar shredding music or some classics; this is the mix for you! Yes, I like Guns N Roses and to my purists; I realize "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy" by Rod Stewart is Disco (Yikes)! However, I am trying to appeal to a larger audience so please forgive me!!!

I really had fun making this one. I put a bit of a spin on it to show how Latino influenced Freestyle music has it's roots in Soul. The rhythmic sounds and blaring musical diva's mesh as one to produce very tight melodies. If you close your eyes and actually LISTEN to the music, you will hear how the soulful vocals of the great African American Divas compliment and make these classic Freestlye songs sound completely different. You almost forget the original song and get hypnotized by the melodic sound.

Episode 16 - The Partywrecka's Musica Navidena De Puerto Rico - Volume 16
December 28, 2009 12:26 PM PST
I felt a little nostalgic and was compelled to share a Holiday mix of songs mainly from my Puerto Rican Culture. For Puerto Rican's, Dominican's, and many other Hispanic countries; the Christmas Season is one of the most celebrated times of the year. The Hispanic culture recognizes this season straight through until January 6th. This is the feast of the Epiphany; when the Three Kings, or Tres Reyes Magos, visited the Baby Jesus in Bethlehem bearing gifts.

This next mix in my "Takin' Ya Back NYC Style" mixes takes you back to the origins of the Freestyle music genre. Many early and mid 80's classics encompass this mix. These were heard playing on NYC's hottest radio stations and in the clubs and skating rinks all throughout NYC. When many speak of freestyle classics, they often forget these were the pioneers that paved the way for the artists that performed in the late 80's and early 90's. A little mix to educate those not familiar with this genre or era. If a few seem lengthy it's becuse they are the extended mixes off the 12inch. A very hard to find " Good to the Last Drop" by C Bank and Ellenore Mills is included. Forgive the few skips on the record.Enjoy the music! Setlist:

Alright now podcast members! Time to slow things down a bit! Recently, while chatting with an old dear friend about NYC radio personalities Frankie Crocker and Vaughn Harper; I became inspired to start a new series of mixes. DA SLOW JAMZ. So a big thank you to my old buddy Daphne! Crocker and Harper were both known for their "Quiet Storm" or "After Dark" sessions of late night music. They both played a weekly radio series of smooth groove collections. The songs they played were relaxing and sensual melodies, mostly of the R&B genre. Many of us back in the day looked forward to hearing these sessions late at night. These hits often tucked us into bed. Either we fell asleep or kept going! You all know EXACTLY what I mean!

This next installment in my "Takin' Ya Back NYC Style" series covers my first love of music. The Hip Hop genre. The mix covers the time when Hip Hop music went mainstream, the early 90's. The movement clearly went from east to west coasts and the mainstream media helped launch many careers. The music video era helped broadcast urban music to suburbia. The Hip Hop world began to flourish outside of NYC and other urban cities. This mix provides a combination of smooth grooves, party music, and hardcore hip hop. PLEASE USE DISCRETION WHEN PLAYING IN FRONT OF CHILDREN DUE TO STRONG LANGUAGE AND CONTENT! Enjoy the mix! Playlist: Gotta Get You Home - Blackstreet featuring Foxy Brown,

While realizing there is a broad spectrum of new music. The Partywrecka's Podcast will not just provide you old school music. We would like to welcome our first guest DJ. His name is DJ Millo, he hails from Staten Island, New York and he has provided me with a REGGAETON / HIP HOP MINI MIX for your listening enjoyment. The mix is about 15 minutes long and should provide you with some good music as you surf the net. Pretty hot mini mix if you are a fan of the modern reggaeton/hip hop music genre.

This next mix in my "Takin' Ya Back NYC Style" collection is all about the "British Invasion" to hit the music scene during the 80's. As a Bronx youth, my memories of this era were my constant trips to Greenwich Village via the #6 subway and the station announcement of arrival; hence the title, "The Next Stop is Astor Place." This style of music, coupled with it's particular fashion trends of clothing and hairstyles; was embraced by a large group of inner city kids. This mix contains songs of different styles within the genre of New Wave itself. Both Pop & Club hits are featured in the mix; notably the very hard to find," A Letter From Afar, by B Movie; which became a New York City classic during this time. Culturally diverse and always dynamic. That statement best describes the youth and music during this era. So without further ado I present to you my latest installment in the "Takin' Ya Back NYC Style" series of old school music. Enjoy! Playlist: All the Things She Said-Simple Minds,

This next mix in my "Takin Ya Back NYC Style" series is an R&B / Soul collection of hits. Whether on a basketball court, hanging in a park, commuting on a bus or subway; these songs were heard playing on boomboxes or pulsating from the headphones of any Walkman player. This soul genre of music was as much fused with the hip hop scene as both genres were often mixed together. The dominant NYC radio stations, popular DJ's, and the early days of video; only showcased these popular artists to the NYC youth. So without further ado; sit back, kick back, or jump out of your seats! The Partywrecka is takin ya back to a time when this particular genre of music truly lifted your SOUL! Enjoy!

This latest installment of my "Takin' Ya Back NYC Style!" mixes is all about the classic house grooves that hit the clubs of NYC in the late 80's and early 90's. Many origins of House music came from the city of Chicago, but NYC embraced the style all it's own. From it's hypnotizing bass lines and pulsating drops this mix will keep you dancing. If you listen closely you can still hear the crackles and pops of wax, a whistle song or two, and the beloved indigenous Puerto Rican tree frog known as the Coqui. This mix is sure to make you move, jump, jack your body, and stomp all your troubles away! Enjoy! Playlist: Can't Get Enough-Liz Torres,
