It's All Happening Right Now

By: Nick Gunz
  • Summary

  • It's All Happening Right Now is an ode to the classic DJ mix tapes of the 1990's. 30 minutes each side, rather than the now standard hour or more mix session. The DJ needed to communicate a cohesive, yet short set that was designed to grab the listeners attention. A mix of house music classics, burners and bootlegs. Nick's unique style of house music was instrumental in defining the sound of the Minneapolis club and underground house scene for over two decades. Nick started his career as a DJ in the late 90s, influenced by the Chicago hot mix style of dj'ing on B96 FM. In the early 2000s he spearheaded the Black club series at the First Avenue VIP Room, hosting exclusive events that brought world class house music to the Twin Cities. Nick's signature sound draws from a wide range of influences, including French house, Chicago house, New York vocal house anthems and bootlegs. He has often been praised for his ability to blend nostalgic classics with contemporary bangers.

Happy (Mazi's Holisitic Disco Rub): Donna Blakely *A note from eks: Growing up it seemed like all of my favorite mix tapes had Mazi tracks, so making an entire mixtape of them made perfect sense. I've always loved how versatile Mazi is as a producer, so my main goal for this mix was to showcase the breadth of his work under various pseudonyms. Indeed, Mazi has a track for any mood. If you want something low and slow with amazing vocals "Do You Want Me" is one of the best. Need a 134 bpm all-major-chord banger happier than bunnies cumming sunshine? Check out "Refill?". How about a minimal tech track that is psychedelic and groove-heavy? Easy! Mazi is producing loads of them under the name Audio Soul Project. Not to mention that under the pseudonym Studio Nova, he was a pioneer of the filtered sound that defined Disco House in the late 90s. "The Reason We Took It Underground" is still one of the best records I've ever heard to this day. After 25 years not only does it still sound fresh, even the social messaging is still relevant. It's confirmation that we were absolutely on the right track back then. Something still worthy of our time now. And that makes it all the more special.
