Record Pool Picks, September 2008

As you can see, I'm still behind in my music ratings. I skipped August - not trying to get ahead, but because there was no DVD of music for August. Anyway, here are the September ratings from the Richmond Record Pool, and hopefully I'll have my October picks online within a day or so.

As usual, these are my top picks out of well over three hundred tracks, and I've broken them down by the style of event that I'd probably play them at.

Live Progressive Sets:
- Aaron Joseph, “Memory Test” (Original Mix)
- Benny Maze, “Breathe” (Heck Vocal)
- Freakquencer, “Trouble & Pain” (Club Booster Burn Dub)
- Jonas Steur feat Julie, “Cold Winds” (Original)
- Maslow, “Drive”
- Vortectral, “Round The Block” (Reaky Remix)

Mainstream Club Sets:
- Alex Garelli & Anthony Nardone, “Summer ‘91” (Main Mix)
- Barclay & Cream, “Groove Is In The Heart” (Mike Misar Club Mix)
- Jaimy & Kenny D, “Keep On Touchin’ Me” (Funkerman Remix)
- Jon Pegnato & Thee-O, “Small Talk” (Original Mix)

Studio Mixes:
- Albert Keyn, “Save One Love” (BRT Remix)

- Neon Stereo feat Marcie, “Poses” (Original)
- Nick Detti, “London” (Original Mix)
- One World, “Isla Blanca”
- Proper Villains, “Put Me In A Box” (Faskil Remix)

Warmup Tracks:
- Ame, “Rej” (ATFC’s Twin Cherries Edit)
- Che Dubois, “Told You” (Original Mix)

- Jarius Miller, “The Seventh Gate”
- Nick Detti, “London” (Electric Mix)
- Santiago Nino, “Invent” (Original Mix)
- Santiago Nino & Ronxxx, “Tell Me” (Original Mix)

I can't really say that I have a favorite track out of this batch, but I will admit that "Groove Is In The Heart" is a timeless classic. Yes, I know, it's cheesy mainstream club pop music, but a classic nonetheless. Love it.
