Welcome to this week's edition of Subterranean Homesick Grooves™, a weekly electronica-based radio show presented on CHMA FM 106.9 at Mount Allison University in Atlantic Canada. The show is normally programmed and mixed by Jonathan Clark (as DJ Bolivia), although some weeks feature guest mixes by other Canadian DJ's. The show encompasses many sub-genres within the realm of electronic dance music, but the main focus is definitely on progressive and tribal house, and a very small amount of trance & techno. Liner notes for this episode (049) can be seen below.
In addition to being able to download each episode from SoundCloud, you can also visit our DJ Mixes folder on Dropbox (which allows for bulk downloads). That folder hosts hundreds of episodes and other DJ mixes. Here's the link:
By the way, for those of you who didn't know, Avicii is a stage name for Tim Bergling. Yes, that is the same "Tim Berg" who produced the top40 hit "Bromance." Here's a link to the video for Bromance, even though it isn't on this mix:

01. DJ Kypski, "Satisfaction"(Kuhlmann Remix).
02. Jay Lumen, "Playground"(Original Mix).
03. DJ Camero, "Buffalo"(Carlos Chaparro Remix).
04. Martin Escape, "My Search"(Original Mix).
05. John Acquaviva & Olivier Giacomotto, "Black Mamba"(Original Mix).
06. Ivan Wasquez, "Eleven"(Original Mix).
07. Niaz Arca, "Back To The Jungle"(Original Mix).
08. Supernova, "Beat Me Back"(Original Mix).
09. Soundshaperz, "Cocaine"(Original Mix).
10. Nick Fay, "After Midnight"(Original Mix).
Kypski is a Dutch DJ and producer who is interesting because he's also a scratch DJ. You don't see that a lot among house producers. His SoundCloud page has a full bio.
Jay Lumen, from Hungary, is a very well-known name. It's amazing that he has any time to produce with his pretty full international touring schedule.
DJ Camero is very involved in the electronic music scene within Spain.
John Acquaviva is one of Canada's best. Surprisingly, I feel like he is more appreciated outside of Canada than he is here, for his extensive accomplishments in the world of techno. Don't get me wrong - he is definitely well known within Canada, but when people from other countries think of electronica DJ's, he would be at the top of the list, along with names like Richie Hawtin & Max Graham & Deadmau5.
Soundshaperz is a name you might not recognize, because it's only been used a few times. It's a collaboration (a tech-progressive alias) between Dutch DJ's & producers Ummet Ozcan and M.E.M.
Nick Fay doesn't have a very well-known SoundCloud page, but I've seen his name several times in the past few weeks for some reason. Nick is from Macedonia. That's about all that I know about him.

08. Bolivia, "Global Underground"(DJ Nard Instrumental).
09. Jon Sine, "Cosmic Dust"(SKJG Project Remix).
You'll notice that there's a new version of "Global Underground" in this set. This one was done by DJ Nard, and it's an instrumental version of the song that he did for my remix contest last year. If you want a copy of his entire track, it's a free download on my SoundCloud page. I don't have a lot of stuff on that page yet, but my goal for this summer and fall is to produce a full artist album of progressive house, and a number of other individual single releases. So bookmark that SoundCloud page, because it will get a lot more music added to it over the coming twelve months. You can also check the track out individually (except through Facebook) right here:
One notable thing about this week's show is that I finally feel like the radio show is getting a sense of direction. For the first thirty episodes, I experimented with a few different styles. The show was progressive house more often than not, but there was also a bit of trance, some electro, and some mainstream. There were a dozen great guest mixes too. In fact, if I had to make a top10 list of episodes to date, half of them would be guest mixes! But the end result was that there wasn't a lot of consistency. However, for the last few shows (with the exception of #045, which was the last time I'll be playing mainstream/top40 on Subterranean Homesick Grooves), I've finally felt like I've found the style I want: Progressive and tech-house. Very few vocals. Nothing bouncy or mainstream. The kind of music that most people know me for playing from the first several years that I had my main website online (except even fewer vocals than I used in mixes from 2003-2006). So that's what you can expect from the show from this point forward.
Also, now that I've spent the past six months trying to "catch up" on a lot of projects that I should have completed in the past three years, I feel like I finally have more free time. I've got a couple of big projects that are going to wrap up this weekend, and next week is going to be a "new start" for me. I'll be doing a lot more of my own production work, and I've also made arrangements to collaborate with a couple of other Atlantic Canadian producers. Finally, starting next week, I'm going to be spending a bit more time on the write-ups for each radio show, giving readers a bit of background about some of the artists & producers/remixers featured in each episode.
For people in southern New Brunswick, I'll be playing a progressive house set from 11pm to 2am on Friday, February 11th, at Triangles on St. George Street in Moncton. I hope to see a lot of familiar faces there. Enjoy this week's radio show!
