dattrax: WOW!! It's been a year since the last house mix was posted!!! (I've probably made over 30 mixes since then but they all sucked or had unforgivable mistakes. All our mixes have imperfections and slight mistakes but it's the trainwrecks or the wrong selection that just drops the mood you were trying to create that you don't want to share ;).It's been a challenging last few years personally. Life happens. Not all positive but you roll with the punches. You try to see some good in your circumstances and realise that at the end of the day, you can only control you and NOT ANYTHING OR ANYONE ELSE, not what they do, say, feel or think. Then you pick yourself up and move on the best that you can.Thank you for stopping by and listening to our DJ house music mixes! We're up to 105 mixes now!! It's probably less than 10% of all the mixes we've made but it's the ones that we love and enjoy to listening over and over.A house mix should be special. Not to be listened to once and then deleted or discarded. A good house mix is one that you want to listen over and over again to put you in that happy mental and puts that big fat smile on your face.This is how mixed tapes were treated back when Jim and I first fell in love with house. There were very few mixed cassette tapes from our favourite Toronto DJs, so when you got a hold of a good one. WOW!! It got dubbed and shared with your dozen closest friends. It got played over and over again on your portable cassette player.Jim and I are best friends and have both loved house since we were 15-16 and now we're both 40+!!We're still addicted to buying house music every single month! I'm very excited to share this new house music mix with you! Been working on this mix for about a month in the cracks of time between work, seeing my beautiful children on most weekends, networking and hanging out with good friends. Been thinking about an 80s pop and house mix for years. Thinking and not doing. LMAO.I hope that you love 80s pop and love it with house music mixed in between and tons of house music covers of 80s pop tunes or house instrumentals.Layered and mixed just the way we like it.I was so sad when the greats George Michael, Michael Jackson and Prince passed away the last few years. This mix will probably get banned because it has huge pop hits, but here we go. If this mix makes you feel happy or any other positive emotions, then please share it online with anyone who you think might like house + 80s pop. Most likely your friends who are over 40 yrs old will like this ; ).Please reach out to us and comment.

Had the first gen S4 in 2011 I think. Great product and software), a PC laptop and No sync applied. dattrax mixes are vailable on iTunes.
