Digital Dave Presents

The third edition of the Dirty Disco series "Dirty Disco III" continued the follow the evolution of club music at the time. While the mix is still open format, mash-ups had pretty much become passe. The mix has a sprinkling of hip-hop but is mostly electro before electro had massive drops and evolved into "EDM."

The second installment of the "Dirty Disco" series "Dirty Disco II" seems to be the overwhelming favorite. Released in October of 2009, it was one of the final moments where there was still some open format/mash-up era shine but also a healthy dose of some of the strongest early electro era tracks. LMFAO was becoming a big deal (this is still pre-party rock), Lady Gaga had just come on the scene and the indie rock movement was hitting a nice stride.

"Dirty Disco" was my first CD release at Zen, released in early 2009. Zen was the followup bottle service club to Privilege operated by the same ownership. "Dirty Disco" was initially intended to be a trilogy however due to popular demand 4 total mixes were released in the series. The "Dirty Disco" series demonstrates the evolution of the mash-up era of nightclubs into the electro era, which eventually would lead to the EDM ruling the world for a brief moment in time. This first mix is a good balance of mash-up meets electro, by episode IV the mix was full on electro/EDM. The "Dirty Disco" concept became so popular that my Saturday residency at Zen was named "Dirty Disco Saturdays" and even won "Best Themed DJ Night" in the Pittsburgh City Paper in 2009.

"Digitally Damaged" was my third mass-produced mix CD and the first that was mass replicated by a CD duplication company with a total of 1,000 copies that went out into the world. It was released in July of 2008 at Privilege as business was sadly starting to wane. "Digitally Damaged" was my final CD released at Privilege. In this mix you can hear the early rumblings of club music's eventual transition from mash up to electro.Links:Mixcloud: mixcloud.com/djdigitaldaveBookings: [email protected]: djdigitaldave.comIG: @djdigitaldave1Facebook: /djdigitaldave

My second mass production CD release, also released at Privilege came out in February of 2008. For "Rock The House" and "Let's Get Digital" I did not use a CD duplication company, instead I owned a 10 tray CD burner tower which would burn 10 CDs at once. It basically looked like an old school computer tower completely comprised of CD drives. Then I full color printed CD labels to affix to each sleeve and full-color front and back artwork and placed the artwork and CDs into clear vinyl sleeves. It honestly probably costed more than a duplication company. This mix also came out in the hey day of the mashup era and once again was representative of what I was playing at Privilege, Pittsburgh's largest nightclub at that time.

This was released in the hey day of the mashup era and represents what I was playing at Privilege, Pittsburgh's largest nightclub at that time.
