    Diva Hall of Fame: Tina Turner Tribute Mix (2021)

    This 80s-dance and house mix is the Diva Hall of Fame tribute to Tina Turner, reposted in 2023 to honor her passing. The 2021 collection gathers club remixes and extended versions that moved her catalog onto dance floors, from Metro and Hex Hector reworks to classic David Morales and Todd Terry treatments. Highlights include dancefloor takes on "When The Heartache Is Over," a pulsing "Private Dancer" mix, and David Morales' club-ready "GoldenEye," alongside nods to remix culture with Deep Dish, Ben Liebrand and a contemporary DJ Amanda vs. Sonny Fodera rework. The set showcases how Tina's voice and songs translated across house, disco and 12-inch club formats, and why she became a lasting gay icon and club favorite. This two-hour-plus tribute remembers Tina Turner not just as a rock and pop legend but as a performer whose catalog kept evolving for DJs and dancers. Listen for the blend of vintage power vocals and remix-era production that kept her relevant in clubs for decades.

    Diva Hall of Fame: Madonna: The Ultimate Dance Classics Vol. 1 (2022)

    Dance-focused Diva Hall of Fame mix from 2022 celebrating Madonna’s formative club years. Volume 1 revisits her 1980s dance hits (with a few tracks edging into 1990) and gathers extended mixes and rare edits to recreate the era’s DJ-friendly flow. This set emphasizes continuity—snare-driven electronic patterns and classic Disconet/Ultimix-style timing—so transitions feel effortless across nearly two hours. Highlights include Shep Pettibone’s Open Your Heart, Ultimix Express Yourself, Digital Visions re-edits of Into the Groove and Like a Prayer, and Select Mix treatments of Material Girl and Vogue pt. 2. The compiler focused on pacing and sequence rather than exhaustive remix trivia, favoring versions that keep dancefloor energy consistent while threading pop milestones through an 80s-club lens. Some edits are rare; the post notes that Volume 2 is coming soon and reminds listeners that Madonna’s official compilations are available for streaming.

    This episode is 80s dance music — The Essential 80's Dance Mix, Vol. 6 (2019) — assembled to gather notable tracks that missed the earlier volumes and to close this particular chapter of the series. The two-and-a-half-hour mix leans on classic remixes and club-edits to keep a steady floor-ready flow, with careful sequencing that sometimes took weeks to perfect. Highlights include ABC's Look Of Love (Ultimix), Eurythmics' Sweet Dreams in a Culture Shock remix, Human League staples Don’t You Want Me and (Keep Feeling) Fascination in Edge remixes, plus Bananarama's Venus and Madonna's Open Your Heart among others. The set balances Hot Tracks and Ultimix-era reworks with Select Mix and Edge edits to emphasize dancefloor energy without losing the originals' melodic hooks. Party Favorz notes a temporary pause on more 80s compilations but promises future revisits for New Order, Depeche Mode, and SAW-era material. For now, volume 6 is a nostalgic, remix-forward send-off: sit back and enjoy the classics retooled for motion.

    Dance Tribute: David Bowie: Let's Dance Remixed & Reimagined (2019)

    Dance · Legacy Tribute · 2019 — Party Favorz reimagines David Bowie for the club with a carefully sequenced mix that pulls highlights from across his career and translates them into a dancefloor context. This set is intended as a tribute, not a definitive anthology: it focuses on remixes and re-edits that push Bowie’s melodies and moods into electronic territory while honoring the original spirit of the songs. Selections range from upbeat reworks to more reflective reinterpretations. Standouts include the DJ Ernani take on "Let's Dance," Julian Marsh’s soulful versions of "Space Oddity" and "Under Pressure," plus the 7th Heaven remix of "Rebel Rebel," a Pet Shop Boys extended mix of "Hallo Spaceboy," and 808 State’s '91 remix of "Sound + Vision." The flow highlights Bowie’s chameleon-like range, acknowledging that some catalogue moments resist straightforward club translation while celebrating those that adapt beautifully. Made with affection and restraint, this mix aims to introduce Bowie’s songwriting to club listeners and longtime fans alike, offering fresh production perspectives without erasing the songs that made him essential.

    80s Dance Classics: The Essential 80's Dance Mix Vol. 4

    80s dance music — The Essential 80's Dance Mix, Volume 4 (2019) — serves as a two-hour-plus crash course in the era’s club-friendly pop and alternative dance. This installment balances big commercial hits with edgier alternative cuts, sequencing Ultimix and Select Mix versions into a cohesive, nostalgia-forward set meant for both casual listeners and longtime fans. Highlights land where you'd expect: Paula Abdul’s “Straight Up” opens with kinetic energy, Madonna turns up twice with “Like A Prayer” and “Holiday,” and Jody Watley supplies prime R&B-tinged dance with “Don’t You Want Me.” The mix also nods to the club underground with Frankie Goes To Hollywood’s “Relax,” Depeche Mode’s Tim Simenon & Mark Saunders take on “Strangelove,” and a Razormaid-styled “West End Girls” from Pet Shop Boys. Rounding out the ride are singalong closers like Rick Astley and Whitney Houston, making Volume 4 an accessible, well-curated snapshot of 80s dance culture.

    This 2019 80s Dance compilation — The Essential 80's Dance Mix Volume 3 — is a two-hour Urban-flavored set built to celebrate the decade’s funk, R&B dance, electro and early rap. Party Favorz spent two weeks selecting and editing tracks to create a flowing mix that shifts between chart pop, alternative dance touches, and the era’s pioneering club sounds. Highlights include inventive pairings and remixes such as the mashup of Grandmaster Flash’s White Lines with Herbie Hancock’s Rock It, plus club-ready takes on Janet Jackson’s Nasty and Rob Base & DJ EZ-Rock’s It Takes Two. The set also features Run-DMC’s Walk This Way, Salt-N-Pepa’s Push It and Lisa Lisa & Cult Jam’s I Wonder If I Take You Home, among other classics. Taken as a whole the mix sketches a concise history of 80s dance floors—synth grooves, electro-funk, and rap’s early party moments—while keeping a DJ’s sense of momentum and crowd-pleasing familiarity.
