Mike Bolante's Mixes
by Mike Bolante
From classical piano and iconic 80s beats to the heart of Chicago's house scene, Mike Bolante's musical journey is one of relentless passion and evolution.He cut his teeth DJing local parties, then dove headfirst into production alongside NYC's Ray Roc, managing the legendary ROCit Records. But it was in Chicago, the birthplace of house, where Mike truly found his groove. Six years immersed in the scene, collaborating with local legends and soaking up the sounds of Spy Bar, shaped his distinct sound – a fusion of Chicago house, techno, and tech house.Today, Mike is a respected artist agent and manager, music and event producer, and entertainment business consultant. His passion for DJing remains unwavering, and he has evolved into a DJ of all genres, moonlighting whenever possible. It's a testament to his enduring love for the craft and his ability to adapt and grow. This is what passion sounds like, and Mike Bolante has it in spades.

AMAPIANO BEATS
AMAPIANO (which means "THE PIANOs" in Zulu) Amapiano is a subgenre of house music that emerged in South Africa in the mid 2010s. It is a hybrid of deep house, jazz and lounge music characterized by synths and wide percussive basslines. Got fixated to this as of late as I have been listening to…

POBLACION SESSIONS VOL. 2
After more than a decade and a half of doing this. I know how to read the crowd much more the ones in Poblacion. So I base it on what is the venue’s programming and the crowd I have in front of me. My first love is house but clearly I have evolved from then and can now even play open format...

POBLACION SESSIONS VOL. 1
Recently, people have asked me what I have been playing as of late in Poblacion. It's an ecclectic mix of genres both underground and mainstream. Never really put myself in a box and just play what I feel like and watch the crowd. Poblacion, along with Chicago and LA are the places I love djing…

Beach Anthems back in the late 90s and the early 2000s. So many memories. That was fun. These songs brought so much of those memories back. So vivid were these memories, that each song made me smile and remember! If you were a child of the 90s, you would love these songs I mixed and most likely...

The Lockdown Series Vol. 8 Dance Classics and Friendship
Nothing like being in your 20s, carefree, having fun. This was also the time I discovered clubbing. Although I loved music and knew about djing but it wasn’t a passion as it is now. Clubbing was just so much fun… It was fun because of friends. All the parties, the laughter, the embarassment… I…

The 90's were an awesome time for me. It was carefree. Before House, Techno and Trance, this is what was popular back then. Had great memories back then. I could remember back then these songs were playing in our cars. Some of us even have subs and would put it on blast. It's funny when I think...

The Lockdown Series Vol. 2
Weeks into this quarantine gave me a lot of time to reminisce about the old days. Growing up in the 80's and the 90's was a lot of fun. We didn't have the technology we had back then to keep us preoccupied, we had friends... we had each other. With that, we had a soundtrack. All the songs you…
