Party Favorz

This weekend, the majority of Pride events will be taking place from coast to coast.  As such, it's fitting that I have my 3rd installment of my Pride Edition up and ready to go.  Get ready for some serious BIG, BAM, BOOM! in this mix.  I want to give a shout out and big thanks to DJ 7Up for sliding my a copy of the unreleased Manny Lehman mix of Lady GaGa's "Just Dance".  By substituting that song for something I considered ordinary and run of the mill, it took an outstanding mix and essentially made it excellent. Some of you may have noticed that the Beatport Pride Edition was a little shrill, especially at the beginning.  Considering that the songs were free, I can't complain too much.  However, I did go back and put it through Platinum Notes which analyzes the mix and then makes the necessary pitch and dynamic adjustments.  I don't use this software often, because it's not always dead on and can actually ruin individual songs.  If I encounter a problem with the original track, I generally prefer to do it
