Overwhelmed by this and that, problems and circumstances great and small, some of which we can control, and others still both out of our control and uncontrollable.

Shine | Mainstream sets are the most popular with all of you; I'm pretty sure this one will quickly become a favorite once you hear it. Upbeat, happy and bright, it's full of current chart toppers. Give it a listen, you'll understand why I named it "Shine." | 1/20/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Top of 2010 | This set is a collection of my favorite tracks from 2010. Many of these may be familiar as I've used them in previous podcasts, while a few are making their debut in this episode of "Press Play." My picks may not be yours, but they're still Top of 2010! | 1/8/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Pause Again | It's been a while. Between now and then, things have been hectic, rushed, and at times stressful. So now, it's time to stop, to take a break and recover, if only for a few minutes. Relax. Breathe. Chill. Pause...Again. | 12/27/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Surge | The music is strong, hard, edgy. It pulls you, moves you, drives you to get up and dance. It's progressive, electro, even playful. But it always comes as a Surge! | 12/1/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|

Endless Summer | It was a long, hot summer, filled with lots of songs with great staying power; so good in fact, they still sound great months later. It's an Endless Summer! | 10/13/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Schizosonic | It's progressive! No, it's pop! No, it's mainstream! No, it's progressive! Oh hell, it's a little bit of everything. When you can't make up your mind, you might as well just be Schizosonic! | 5/20/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
12 |
Audé-licious | A great remix can make a song. Vasquez, Pettibone, Rauhofer and Calderone all were symbols of their era. In the new millennia there are too many to name, but Dave Audé ranks right up there with the best. This episode marks his sound: "Audé-licious!" | 4/13/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
13 |
ExplicitBounce | You start tapping your toe. Then you nod your head. Then there's the gentle sway, the shimmy of shoulders, the wiggle of the hips. The beat is so infectious, so captivating, so compelling you can't stop yourself! Don't worry, it's okay, go ahead, Bounce! | 2/25/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
14 |
Excursion | It's late, you're restless, not ready for sleep but you don't want to be around a lot of people either. So you grab the keys to the car, pop in a CD, and head out. The music is just right: smooth, surprising, exciting. Go on, your "Excursion" awaits! | 2/7/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
15 |
Deep Spin | A little bit funky, a little bit chunky, a little bit electro, and a little bit tribal; this is peak hour, late night, in the house. It's a Deep Spin! | 1/4/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
16 |
Solstice | On the shortest day of the year, at the start of Winter, we all need a little something to warm us up and make things a little lighter and brighter. I hope this trance set will nurture the light within you at this time of year. Happy Solstice! | 12/21/09 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
17 |
Echoes | No, you're not hearing things. Some of these songs sound like other songs you've heard before. They're not covers, or remixes, but rather entire new songs based on phrases or themes from old ones. Can you hear the "Echoes" in here? | 12/16/09 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
18 |
Explicit30 Pop | It's all about love, sex, and money; it always has been and always will be. Episode 30 of "Press Play" pays homage to the way the world goes 'round with the latest crop of chart-toppers, so it just seemed right to call it "30 Pop." | 12/5/09 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
19 |
ExplicitSocket | You feel the spark. It's shocking at first. Then energizing. It makes you want to move. It makes you want to groove. It makes you want to let go. The sound is hard, edgy, electric! So plug in; your Socket is waiting! | 11/13/09 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
20 |
ExplicitContempo | Fresh tracks, some just minted, with a few old familiar songs given a new lease on life, along with a little twist, and you have what amounts to a set that's "hip," that's "happening," and that's "now." Just call it "Contempo" for short! | 8/24/09 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
21 |
ExplicitScorcher | With temperatures cresting 100 in many parts of the country, there's no let up on the dance floor either! These tunes are top-of-the-chart right now, and are likely to keep summer clubbing on fire! It's definitely a "Scorcher!" | 7/28/09 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
22 |
ExplicitEmpyrean Beat | The third installment in the Trance series, created again for the gang at the Dallas Flaggers' Weekend. Going from progressive to euphoric, this set should help you ascend to the heights Olympus itself. After all, even the Gods need a soundtrack! | 7/4/09 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
23 |
ExplicitGoin' to GayDays! | The final, and winning entry into the G.I.R.L. GayDays DJ Search competition; 90-minutes of pool-party goodness! If you're going to be at GayDays in Orlando, FL, this year, please come see me on Friday night! | 4/17/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

24 |
Avanti! | Let's face it, 2008 sucked! No one I know had a good year; the music was the only good thing about it in fact. This set, therefore, is an homage to 2008, while taking us into the new year. So it's on to 2009! Avanti! | 1/29/09 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
25 |
Holidazed | At this time of year, it's so easy to get overwhelmed. There's the shopping, the dinners, the crowds, the parties, the shopping, the incessant holiday music, the shopping, the crowds, the traffic, the shopping... It's so easy to get, well, Holidazed! | 12/27/08 | Free | View In iTunes |

26 |
Transition | If there is one constant in the universe, it is, as Bowie said, "Ch-ch-changes." "Transition" is about changes, unexpected things, hopes and dreams, and new directions. Hopefully, you'll find your own change in here as well. | 11/28/08 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
27 |
More | More beats, more bass, more funk, more chunk. "More" is a bit, well, more. This one is the result of too much good music to fit into one set, but definitely not the "left-overs," or the "B-sides." Go ahead, have a little "More!" | 9/26/08 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
28 |
Miracle | When a song is too good you can't decide between two mixes, what do you do? Why, use 'em both, of course! Miracle wraps 11 other tracks with two mixes of Oceanlab's beautiful new single, "Miracle." I hope you enjoy it. | 9/26/08 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
29 |
Blacklight | An excursion into Tribal sounds, from minimal to layered and progressive, this one will speak to your primitive side. So turn the lights off, strip down, get hot and sweaty, but don't forget to fire up your "Blacklight." | 9/4/08 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
30 |
Pause | Relax. Breathe. Chill. Pause. Taking a break from the usual, my first foray into Chill music. It's a lot harder than you might think, really. The music has to be more in so many ways. So relax, breathe, chill. "Pause." | 8/4/08 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
31 |
Heaven's Reach | A Trance set that's a bit more on the progressive side. This set is named after, and features images of, another set of flags, made by "Texas Flagger Boy," Phillip Byran, for this year's Dallas Flagger Weekend festivities. | 7/4/08 | Free | View In iTunes |

So, I present "morning," hoping your day is filled with happiness, beauty and love. Namaste. | 6/8/08 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitEt tu, Paco? | Constructed using only tracks given to me by my friend (and fellow DJ) Paco, this set is my way of thanking him for the gift. Deep, dark and funky, this set is a perfect companion to "Crush," but even more on the progressive side! | 2/2/08 | Free | View In iTunes |

Everything Old Is New Again | You can't keep a good song down, or from the hands of remixers! Here are some old favorites, made fresh again. Spanning eras from the '60's to the '90's, you could even say this set was decades in the making! | 1/5/08 | Free | View In iTunes |

Passionista | What is "Passionista?" I think of it as passion with an attitude; you'll hear it that way too! | 11/24/07 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
41 |
Crush | A touch of funk, a bit of chunk, a slice of electro, wrapped up in melodic goodness; inspired by four DJs - from budding to big room - who rock my world (Donovan (aka "Big Red Dee"), Funkybear Martin, Paco and Ted Eiel), it's time to feel the Crush! | 10/18/07 | Free | View In iTunes |

Melancholia | A set to fill you up, mind, body, heart and soul. Progressive at its core, I hope this set will resonate with you on a personal level, the way it did for me. The beauty in joy is apparent; but a melancholia can be wondrous too. | 8/9/07 | Free | View In iTunes |
