The Weather Report 003 (Legacy)

The Weather Report (Electronic Music) Podcast by Jon Salem.
Been wanting to do something heavily focused on Dub-Techno with the inception of my new track. I
figured the best way to show it off was to make a mix around it. So here we are for episode three,
leading off with my own personal Ham on Dwarves followed by a quality selection of interconnecting
dub and minimal pieces to really create a moving mix.

The Weather Report 002 (Legacy)

The Weather Report (Electronic Music) Podcast by Jon Salem. I wanted to mix things up a little bit.
I often find quality Progressive House pieces that just mix so well in Tech House-latent sets. To show off a good mutli-genre mix that keeps things fun and moving, I used that concept in developing a Tech-base that is then encompassed by differing styles such as deep and progressive. Of course, Had to throw in a little techno just to give some bump and bounce add a little nuance and dynamic.

The Weather Report 001 (Legacy)

The Weather Report (Electronic Music) Podcast by Jon Salem.
This first episode is a reprise of a festival mix that never happened.
I was playing Drop Fest, a small time festival in Flint, Michigan, and had this track line-up ready to go
for the festival with an early evening play time. There was a lack of communication on equipment specification for the opening artist and he didn't have the vinyl turntables needed to play. During the hectic point of trying to figure out what to do, I took it upon myself to take over his set time with impromptu-Tech House set using CDs so I didn't have to take the time to set up my laptop, which these tracks were only on. I subsequently told him to take my  spot to allow time to get vinyl tables secured for him.

Now, 2 years after that day, the mix that never was seemed to be the perfect spot to start this new series off right.
