DHS - a Spotify adventure

DHS is all about music - specifically music chosen, on Spotify, by D, H & S.

The three of us choose five songs at a time, add them to a Spotify playlist, and explain why we've chosen them. Once we've done that six times each we close the list and open the next one. Occasionally we review what we've picked and add it to 'the best of' playlist and once in a blue moon we each select an entire album.

DHS 8 - Part 12 (D)

Yo whattup home boys - greetings, salutations and unnecessarily complicated handshakes. As always, a pleasure to be on the great DHS, and as ever its a bit tardy but hey so's my life right now so take a ticket and wait your turn. Much love and gratitude to my homies H & S for many things but not least the latest tunes. I dont think there was a bad one amongst them to be honest - I loved your lush direction there H and Kevs yours was very good my man - special mentions to Duran Duran, Eric B, Temper Trap (although the Axwell remix rocks my boat more) Eelke Kleijn, Guy J (Surprisingly) and Steve Mill.

Top top work gentlemen. I heartily thank you as there is always a thrill when hearing new tunes. Not that I shall provide such a thing I doubt as Im just going for some faves, but thats how I roll, bitches !!

'Crazy' Gnarls Barkley
Went to the Green Man Festival in Wales when this track was big and saw some unknown belt this out with just him and an acoustic guitar. Was immense. Loved it ever since. Try not to sing along to the chorus...

'It Must be Love' Madness
Just for the piano. Gets me every time. Songs pretty damn good when you're in the right mood for it (winks at Kev)

'Get Down Tonight' KC & The Sunshine Band
Feel good fabulousness, and a staple from when I started djing 60s 70s and 80s in a pub in Tooting way back when. Altogther now 'do a little dance...'

'Where Did All the Love Go' Kasabian
Easily their best tune for me - its immense bassline to the extra strings in the second verse. Tremendous and props to the man like Hodgson

'Rez:Cowgirl live' Underworld
Two for one here, seen them live and lost it, played the bedrock mix of cowgirl to fucking death (greatest regret ever didnt play it at my best ever gig in Gdansk for extremely pathetic reasons but so it goes) and loved this over and over. The crowd response just adds to it, I just cant not dance. Turn it up loud and prepare for mindloss when the break of cowgirl comes in (although the bedrock version is better and I could argue a very long time about why its the greatest remix of anything ever, but hey lets not argue when we were getting on so well, and anyway its not on spot). Large.

Much love to the DHS crew
