Hey Pop Culture
Beasties! Who wants to party?! I want to party! You want to party! We want to
party! Let's party!
To party, we need a great house party music mix!
I tend towards EDM events these days for my music enjoyment, but I threw a certified bash
for the Fourth of July in 2008. Well, by my standards. I invited 20 people, and
50 showed up. There were fireworks from a cool vantage point (accompanied
by the Kiss version of the national
anthem), many foods and drinks, unexpected actors passed out on the floor,
and grown men throwing Pop Its in each others' faces! I even had a freaking
pinata.

But what's all of that
without a great soundtrack? Would any awesome even happen without one? When I go to a party, I
love party music. You know, those songs pretty much everyone loves and can sing
along to, or get a good groove going on. So when it came time to decide on
music for my party, I thought about all the songs I love to sing along and
dance to when I'm in a party mood.
People loved the mix!
Walking through the room, I'd be hearing, "omg! I love this song!"
People were dancing on the patio. But this was 2008! Would my mix stand the
test of time? I recently unearthed those party mix CDs, and was really excited
to find they're still mostly great. So, I want to share my list with
you as inspiration for your own party mixes!
