isPermaLink="false">http://djmertz.com/?p=616</guid> <description><![CDATA[The Parking Lot is the third and final movement in my mix triptych, Remnants. It is an hour long footwork mix that serves as the soundtrack for an imagined footwork battle just before the break of dawn between several ghosts in the parking lot outside of my apartment. While retaining all of the bass, super [...]]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://djmertz.com/2012/02/remnants-movement-3-the-parking-lot/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Remnants, Movement 2: Hepped up On Goofballs</title><link>http://djmertz.com/2012/02/remnants-movement-2-hepped-up-on-goofballs/</link> <comments>http://djmertz.com/2012/02/remnants-movement-2-hepped-up-on-goofballs/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Thu, 02 Feb 2012 00:45:00 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>mertz</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Mixes]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Music]]></category> <category><![CDATA[bass]]></category> <category><![CDATA[bounce]]></category> <category><![CDATA[DJ Mertz]]></category> <category><![CDATA[goofballs]]></category> <category><![CDATA[House]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Three Turntables]]></category><guid
isPermaLink="false">http://djmertz.com/?p=598</guid> <description><![CDATA[Hepped Up On Goofballs is the craziest movement out of the three movements in Remnants. And when I say crazy, I mean I was going for a &#8220;what&#8217;s wrong with that guy?&#8221; kind of vibe at various times, and at the rest of the time I just wanted dancefloor mayhem.

isPermaLink="false">http://djmertz.com/?p=578</guid> <description><![CDATA[The first movement of my Remnants triptych is called Ode to 57 and it was directly inspired by Jackmaster&#8217;s Fabriclive 57. What I loved about Jackmaster&#8217;s mix was how new and old, classics and cutting edge, all flowed so well together. Because I have a few of the tracks Jackmaster used, I thought I could [...]]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://djmertz.com/2012/01/remnants-movement-1-ode-to-57/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>1</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Hidden Orchestra&#8217;s Flight Mixtape is a must get</title><link>http://djmertz.com/2012/01/hidden-orchestras-flight-mixtape-is-a-must-get/</link> <comments>http://djmertz.com/2012/01/hidden-orchestras-flight-mixtape-is-a-must-get/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Mon, 30 Jan 2012 20:34:51 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>mertz</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Blog]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Hidden Orchestra]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Mixes]]></category> <category><![CDATA[ParisDJs]]></category><guid
