As quoted from The Boy Wonder, "This mix is dedicated to... The 80s Party Station KPWR POWER106 [circa 1986-89] with Jay Thomas!"
Tunes in the mix from Expose, Chaka Khan, 2-Live Crew, Debbie Deb, Afrorican, Gucci Crew, and more of the hits played from KPWR Power 106's original format back in the day.
Both The Boy Wonder and I agree that this LA radio station had a very similar format with Manila's 99.5 RT from the late 80s to early 90s, so please do check out his awesome blast-from-the-past mix compilation for another cool trip down memory lane.
Kick off your day with this mix of late 70s to early 80s disco tracks from Rita Lee, Quincy Jones, The Doobie Brothers, Voyage, Robin Wright, Kraftwerk and more...
A cup of coffee or tea would be a nice combination with this mix to help you relax and bring back those good 'ol disco memories...
Another special DJ set heard exclusively on The Vault In The Mix, Saturdays 8 PM (PST), Sundays 12 PM (Manila).
One of my personal fave of all the mixes that I have done. This one's a little short, but sweet mix with tracks from PM (remixed by one of my blog buddies here in blogger, McDoc a.k.a. Evo-XR, thanks bro!), Sisters of Mercy, Haircut 100, Spandau Ballet and more. Also included is a track exclusively played and heard only on The Vault playlist.
Shed off those Monday blues and start your week right with this 80s rewind retro mix!
We are back once again after another long hiatus and here's somethin' special and exclusive to kick off year 2010 from no less than The Vault main man himself, The Boy Wonder, bringing up those retro beats all in the mix.

The Crystal Method is an American electronic music duo that was formed in Los Angeles, California by Ken Jordan and Scott Kirkland in the early 1990s. They continued to release albums and toured through the 2000s, and their songs have appeared in numerous video games, commercials, and films. The duo also composed and recorded original film soundtracks. Their best-selling album, Vegas, was certified platinum in 2007.
Both of them were born in Las Vegas, Nevada.[1] Kirkland was born when his mother was only fifteen. He grew up listening to his mother's music, disco and his father's music, rock. When he had grown a little older, he began listening to Heavy metal, as well as bands like Depeche Mode. Ken Jordan also grew up listening to classic rock and '80s electronic as well. "excerpt from wikipedia"
Along with The Chemical Brothers, Fatboy Slim and Prodigy, the dynamic duo of Kirkland and Jordan collectively known as The Crystal Method, completes the list of my all-time fave electronic artists. This MegaMixx contains tracks from their various albums, Divided By Night, Community Service, Vegas, London Movie Soundtrack, Drive-Nike Soundtrack, and Legion of Boom.
Sampled tracks played include Starting Over, Busy Child, High and Low, Comin' Back, Glass Breaker, Bound Too Long, Blunts & Robots and Dirty Thirty (feat. Peter Hook), Smile, Born Too Slow, Defective and more.

After a long, very relaxing, enjoyable and quality weekend spent with my wife and family, it's time to change gears once more and slow things down a bit. This mix accompanied us when he had our usual weekly dinner date last Friday night and wifey definitely enjoyed every minute of it. She even was the one who coined the title for this week's mix as it really fit our night out very well.
Am sharing this "unique mix" once again and I hope you guys enjoy it as much as me and my wifey did. It's a collection of what I typically would play in my car when I was still trying to impress her and up to now, still worked its magic.

1) Sailing (The Beatmeister Remix) - Christopher Cross
2) Roni - Bobby Brown
3) Tattooed On My Mind - D'Sound

I listen to all kinds of stuff and sometimes go beyond my usual preferences just to broaden my musical horizon. This time, Totally Mixed Up presents this fresh and unique mix from our youngest and newest contributor to the blog, DJ Aliana.
A bedroom DJ, but daydreams a lot of being in a club one day and maneuvering those CDJs, DJ Aliana's earlier exposure to music was through those classical pieces she learned to play on both violin and piano. She also was in a band in her college days playing alternative stuff when she suddenly discovered those pulsating beats of electronic music and started hitting clubs, then eventually became obsessed with the likes of Daft Punk and the rest is history.
She was first into trance music then later progressed to deep house and techno, and finally settled down with minimal, which she describes was like her "home" in electronic music coz it was where she feels she really belongs. Lately, she has also been experimenting with electro house and dubstep, and fortunately, she says, the feedback she got from her online listeners wasn't bad.
As for her interest in mixing, she definitely got bitten by the DJ bug with the influence of a friend and fellow member of this group called "Novice," which supports the stand of a clean and vice-free party scene. She's also part of a label called "Dirty Droid Records," which is a sister of "Deeper Manila Records," both having big visions for the electronic music scene in the Philippines. She's been mixing for about a year-and-a-half now, she says, and "it's been the best span of time in her life so far."
One of her mixes was also be featured last week via http://abnormalfm.inmyradio.net/ . You've really come a long way. Great job!
And now for the tracklist and the mix set itself. Taken from her Soundcloud account here's DJ Aliana.
Here's a deeper and darker mixtape from me to you. :D Designed for a patient listener in a dark room. Not uplifting like my previous mix, but I hope you all feel me on this one.
Martin Buttrich - Programmer Virtualmismo - Mismoplastico (Serge Santiago Maxi Edit) Red Robbin & Jakob Hilden - Snapdragon (Original Mix) Lindstrom - I Feel Space (M.A.N.D.Y. Remix) KG - Zwanenburgbaan (Original Mix) Deadmau5 - 1981 (Minimal Mix) Moonbeam - Night Traffic (Original Mix) Peter Horrevorts - Labyrinth Huggy and Dean Newton - 747 (Original Mix) Sasha - Coma (Gabe & Dimitri Nakov Remix)
It goes up and down, always trying to stay minimal, then ends with a classic to bring you home. Ride with me. =)
