This dance mix is for all the shakers, movers and dancers that could not get their kicks this year in the clubs and parties all around the globe. Lets hope 2021 will bring salvation.
I collected music throughout the year mainly from Spotify’s release radar and a few podcasts like the excellent Group Therapy podcast by Above & Beyond. Over 350 tracks were selected and further cherry picked for this mix and eventually 80 were used. All of the tracks were either released in 2020 or the remix used was and all can ( or at least could) be found at Spotify.
I used Serato DJ pro to sort the songs on BPM and key, although I hardly ever paid attention to the latter. I then used the demo version of Ableton Live to put the mix together, so had a maximum of 60 days before the trial ended :) It was my first time using both pieces of software and I especially liked Ableton for its ease of use but on the other hand didn't much care for its clumsy way of zooming in and out.
