Alex Callejo (Simply Deep, Chicago) - Episode 55 [MUSIC AND WINE Radio]

- Music
How about we kick the year off right with some high quality deep house music? This is Alex Callejo's second featured mix on our radio program, the first one being all the way back in 2010. Since then, we've been fervently listening to his spiritually restitutive podcast Simply Deep.
Like many Chicago artists, Alex has been influenced by house music as far back as the 80's. Growing up, mixing has always been a leisurely activity used to enjoy dance music from all over the world. "I've had the opportunity to DJ various venues throughout Chicago and the Philippines, and I've had the honor to make DJ appearances on various internet radio stations throughout the world," says the co-founder for HOUSEJUNKYZ and DEEPHOUSVIBES. His current project is Simply Deep. "Today, mixing continues to be a source of enjoyment and relaxation for me," says Alex. "Why I continues to mix? Simply put it's fun, I love the music, so why not?"
Alex's influences over the decades have ranged from Hot Mix 5, Mark Grant, Marques Wyatt, Ron Carroll, Mark Farina, Steve Silk Hurly, Marshall Jefferson, DJ Pierre, Derrick May, Derrick Carter, Lil Louis, Frankie Knuckles, Tony Humphries, MAW, Ibadan, David Mancuso, Francois K, Glenn Underground, Larry Levan, Ron Trent, 3 degrees, Dennis Ferrer, Kerri Chandler, Jojo Flores, Abicah Soul, Atjazz, Osunlade, and Karizma.
Those of us who were in Manila back in 2006 may remember Alex's performance at MyHOUSE, the weekly party we organized at M Cafe. We can only hope for a repeat of that really soon (it's been 7 years Alex!)
Here's the track-list to this particularly therapeutic mix by Alex called Love, Life, and Musica that we can only guess was inspired by his recent trip to Mexico to attend the 2012 Mi Casa Holiday.
1) Marlon D feat Ultra Nate (Jose Carretas Mix) - "God's Message"
2) Kemetic Just (DJ Spinna's Galactic Soul) - "I Got Life"
3) Jimpster - "Can't Stop Loving You"
4) Julian Gomes28 feat. Bobby - "Love Song"
5) Jask feat. Jocie (Nikos Diamantopoulos Afro Dub) - "Dreams"
6) Nicholas - "On Your Mind"
7) Johnny Miller meets Cuebur feat. Ckenz - "Good Inside"
8) C'Roberts Walker & Paris Cesvette (NDinga Gaba Deep Sax Dub) - "Loving You In Places"
9) Ralf GUM feat. Monique Bingham - "Take Me To Love"
10) Mi Casa (Atjazz) - "La Vida"
11) Atjazz ft. Clara Hill (QB's Hot Mix) - "Sense of Life"
To a fulfilling and music-filled 2013!!
