Dance - A Pride 2026 Mix - Happy NuDisco/House
A happy and uplifting mix for Pride 2026! As always, I've included new tracks as well as some remixes I love of the classics. I hope this mix gets you thinking about dancing during this Pride season. My first thought on this theme was that it isn't that complicated. Pride, dancing, clubs, right?...

Alexandra Burke - You Broke My Heart (Daniel Van Olst - Piano House Radio Edit) - free download
"You Broke My Heart" is a pretty standard you-done-me-wrong track, but Alexandra Burke does an amazing job with the lyrics, as she always does. I was going to make a mashup with it...but I ended up with a complete piano house remix. :-) My inspiration was being on the dancefloor, looking up at…

Flagging In LA - Live Set - West Hollywood Park, February 14, 2026
Here's my live set from Flagging In LA!! What a glorious day! Perfect weather, and amazing location: West Hollywood Park! I had the chance to see many old friends (some of which I had not seen in ages), and to make many new ones. :-) The flaggers were talented and beautiful, as always! What's...

Donna Summer - This Time I Know It's For Real (Daniel Van Olst Radio Edit) - follow 4 extended mix
I tend to think of Donna Summer as a 70's disco queen, but she had nearly as many Top 40 hits in the 80's as the 70's! "This Time I Know It's For Real" released in 1989, and reached #7 on the US Top 40 charts. This track was written and produced by the super-famous Stock Aitken Waterman team,...
-
We Gotta Dance - Danceable House
70 minutes of music to get you up and dancing. I think a great set is based on an idea, or a vision. It doesn't have to be complicated. It might be a journey, the style of an artist, how you want listeners to feel, or where you see it being played. I've read that dancing at a club or bar is going...

Another happy and uplifting mix for Pride 2025! I've included new tracks as well as some remixes I love of the classics. I hope this mix lifts your hearts and brings you joy during this Pride season. Part of Pride is rising above the situations that challenge us: with courage, calm…

ABBA - Mamma Mia (Daniel Van Olst Radio Edit Mix) - free DL
How can anyone *not* have heard the original version of this song? :-) A huge hit for ABBA in 1975, and of course it had a stage and movie musical named after it (and that included it). On closer inspection it is even more brilliant than at first listen. Most tracks have just two musically…

Oscar's World Famous T-Dance - Live Set - March 2, 2025
I had a blast spending the afternoon with everyone at Oscar's World-Famous T-Dance! Everyone was so appreciative, welcoming, and fun! Recorded live at Oscar's World-Famous T-Dance in Palm Springs, California on March 2nd, 2025. https://oscarspalmsprings.com/ 1 Kathy Brown, Sheree Hicks - Free to…

Part 3 of 3 of my set at Flagging In The Desert, benefitting the Palm Springs AIDS Memorial! (Palm Springs, California - March 1st, 2025) If you haven't been, it is an amazing event - the mountains, the sun, and of course the flaggers, which were so appreciative and supportive!! What's…

Running Up That Hill (Daniel Van Olst - Extended Club Mix)
Kate Bush wrote and performed the superb original of this track for her album, "Hounds of Love". (Many may know it better from season 4 of the show, "Stranger Things".) But the male vocalist I selected swept me away - he sets the stage for a stronger beat and a moody, moody arrangement!
-
The Real Thing - Disco/NuDisco/House
For November I have a new disco-flavored continuous mix, with plenty of piano and strings! There's really nice remakes of "Heaven Knows" and "A Higher Place", as well as some new tracks by David Morales, who has been doing some great work. In particular, the first track is one of his, and might…

Rose Royce - Car Wash (Daniel Van Olst - Diggin' A Ditch Rework) - free DL
My progressive take on a 70s disco classic! "Car Wash" reached the number one spot on the Billboard Hot 100 for only one week in January 1977 (why do I remember it being longer?) Like so many I have a huge affection for hits from this era of my life. Perhaps it looms larger to me than it really...
-
Stand Up - NuDisco & House
This is my September House and NuDisco Mix! Once I got done, I noticed that I started off with the idea of feeling trapped; and then the last four tracks flip this script, and revolve around asserting oneself in various ways. In particular, the 11th track is an excellent remake of the 1966 Sergio...

Ooh What a Life - NuDisco & House
For this July 2024 mix, I've got a selection of house and nudisco tracks! Most of my mixes form around an idea, but the idea with this mix is just a certain sound - a clear, clean mix, with a great separation between each instrument and the vocals (perhaps best exemplified by Optical Disco's…
more -
Kylie Minogue - Hold On To Now (Daniel Van Olst - We Got The Night Rework) - free DL
I decided to go in a completely different direction than the original version of this track - a really moody, progressive/tribal sound. The original of this track (you can hear it on YouTube) is absolutely superb - I didn't feel the need to reinvent the wheel. The original has a slightly retro,...
-
['Star Trek: Enterprise' Theme] - Russell Watson - Where My Heart Will Take Me (Daniel Van Olst Touch The Sky Mix) - free DL
Yes, this really is the theme song from the 2001-2005 show, "Star Trek: Enterprise". :-) Originally performed by Rod Stewart as "Faith of the Heart", it's a track that people seem to either love or hate. While obviously I love it (or I would not have spent so much time with it!), I see the other...
-
Faith - A Pride 2024 Mix - Happy Vocal House/Dance
A happy and uplifting mix for Pride 2024! I've got classics as well as new tracks, all focussed on celebration and being the best we can be. ---- Have you ever told someone "you can do it!"? Or maybe "you got this!"? And you aren't just being nice - because you know them, you *know* it's true.…

Rhymes With LeAnn
I'm a LeAnn Rimes fanboy - I admit it. But with a career spanning more than a quarter century, and covering multiple genres, what's not to like? On top of that, she's often paired with the most superb remixers - Dave Audé, Cahill, Graham Stack - with happy results. The focus in this mix is LeAnn...

Fleetwood Mac - Rhiannon (Daniel G. Van Olst Starless Sky Mix) - free download
The original "Rhiannon" by Fleetwood Mac is definitely a classic. But my take on this track is darker than the original. I ran with the idea that Rhiannon is fierce - not someone to be trifled with!
-
America - Sister Golden Hair (Daniel G. Van Olst Extended Mix) - free download
Many thanks to the amazing Leo Frappier for mix assistance and additional production! :-)
-
The Doobie Brothers - Listen to the Music (Daniel G. Van Olst Extended Mix) - free download
I loved creating this remix of "Listen To The Music" - such a joyous song about the power of music. (Mix assistance and additional production by Leo Frappier. I would definitely recommend him!!)

For The Music - Funky Disco-y Dance Goodness!
"We live for the music, no matter what the world comes to." - Robbie Rivera My December mix is music about...well, music. :-) It's about ways we make music, and things we do to the soundtrack of our lives. Listen. Dance. DJ. Sing, clap, groove. Get lost in it. Be lifted by it. And most of all…

Invincible - Happy Vocal Dance / Electro-Pop
Ever feel a little badass? If not, do you want to? In support of your badassery (is that even a word?), I have a classics-heavy November mix. The world is complicated right now, and the days are getting longer in the northern hemisphere. If you are feeling a little down...consider this a musical...
-
Transcend - Happy Vocal Dance
For my September 2023 mix, I've got happy (or dare I say, "transcendent"?) vocals. "I'm taking it to the next level." "I'm stepping it up." "Becoming a better version of myself." Most of us - at least sometimes - want to experience growth, and often not the gradual kind. --- We start our journey...
-
A Good Day - Organic House & Happy Vocals
July was a wonderful month for many of us. Wonderful, exciting, but also emotional, overwhelming...maybe even perplexing at times. So I've taken a step back here. Still a happy sound, still a great beat, but a bit more thoughtful, relaxed. Not evoking a perfect day...perhaps just a good day. Good...
-
Joy and Happiness - Flag Alley 5 - Happy Vocal House
Just like the title says - this is a big bundle of joy and happiness! I start easy with three groovy tracks, and land gently with three soft tunes, but in between, it's a whole lot of sunshine. This set is from the fifth Flag Alley event in San Francisco - an event by flaggers, for flaggers (and...
-
Free - A Pride 2023 Mix - Happy Vocal House/Dance
I was telling DJ Michael Rackley that I wanted to make a Pride Month mix - but that somehow I wanted to put a new spin on the concept, a new twist. From that vague thought and him hearing me out, a week later, I have a new mix. It starts with a few clouds, but by the third track, they blow away…

Flagging Open Studio - Live Set - May 6, 2023
Recorded live at Flagging Open Studio on Saturday, May 6, 2023. At this month's Flagging Open Studio, I decided to go darker - smoky, sultry, but still with that beat that you need for flagging! Listen up for the third track, "Surge" (Above and Beyond), with awesome percussive loops and...

Flagging Open Studio - Live Set - April 15, 2023

Funkytown - Funky House/Disco
I've been doing this for 6 months now, and I've been surprised to find out how personal it is. There are endless ways to make a set. What theme? What concept? Is this track a great one, or merely a good one? Where do I place a transition? Do I make this sort of transition, or that sort? Which…

Sojourn - Organic House
Half the tracks on this new mix (the odd number ones) are vocal tracks. There are big ideas here. You'll visit lands like loyalty, desire, fidelity, silence, rage, being ghosted, courage, and love. To convey you forward between these destinations, I've arranged transport. The other half of the...
-
Only Human - Organic House
This mix is mostly in the organic house category, but it also takes you on a bit of a journey: first clouds, then some sunshine, and finally ending up in a completely different place than the beginning. My favorite track is the title track ("Andaluz Human") with the lyric, "I am only human, too."...
-
Second Glance - Funky House/Disco
We've all had it happen. We take a second look, and our perception of something we thought we knew well - a friend, a place, a lover, a situation - shifts, for better or worse, and nothing is ever the same again. Things are reshuffled, turned upside down. Nothing again is ever the way it was. And...
-
Line Of Dream - Organic House
A hint of magic, a coincidence, a small mystery. Wordless truths and the unexplained. Science and logic are great, but because of our limits as humans, or just a simple lack of information, we sometimes have to cross a line - to a place where we have to rely emotion, intuition, or a leap of…
more -
Soulshakin' - House / Funky House
I wish I had something really profound to say, but this is just (hopefully) a solid house mix - with a bit of a twist at the end. ;-) For those of you (like me) that are remake-crazy, there are covers of "Hot Stuff", "If I Can't Have You", "Born This Way", and "Beds Are Burning". Enjoy! 1....

Horizon
The Sahara. The big city. Rio de Janeiro. Why are destinations such a popular song topic? Is it because, for the price of a song, you can go anywhere? Or is it because the physical journey is a reflection of our inner exploration? Maybe, in the end, the only question that matters is... Where do…
