Sorry, I have to take a break

 I am unable to get more of these posted right now, as soon as I get a chance I will continue.

What's The Connection? Home

My pop's story from yesterday is why this came about. It's actually what I gave him way back when. I was so sure the Billy Joel was right, but it wasn't. And you know the reason there is no Dan Reed Network today. I work all over the world, but I also work from home. Lately I have been busy with some cool projects. Maybe one day I will share them here. In the meantime my dogs need to be fed, my mother-in-law needs some help and I am wasting my time writing this blurb for this connection which tells you nothing. Hanging out and waiting for my wife to get here. I think I might just make friends with an AI (or call a friend.)

What's The Connection? Build

People ask me about songs all the time, which is flattering until you realize most people do not know the title, the artist, or even the lyrics. Before you could just Shazam everything, my dad once asked me to find a song he really liked. All he knew was that it went, "home, home, you are my house." I worked hard, searched high and low, and found plenty of songs that looked possible, but none of them were right. Years later, it turned out he meant Dan Reed Network doing Ritual, which sounds absolutely nothing like that. The Connection here is Build, not Home, but for a second it probably sounded like I was building up to something. Maybe tomorrow.

Clash Of The Titans 8 (repost)

This is the last of this series, probably. This pick is a little different than the others, because in addition to all of the other vague descriptions of electroclash, all of this pick is also covers. And one mashup. Some great songs are covered here. You probably will figure out the originals of each (if not ask in the comments). You know I love covers of songs, especially if they are done in a little different style. Well here you go. The last of the Clash Of The Titans series and also all covers. Lots of different mixes, nearly the same cover.

Clash Of The Titans 7 (repost)

After the repost of this pick there is only one more to go, So if you love these electroclash comps, enjoy the last ones. If you hate them, good luck it's nearing the end. This really is a clash, even though the music all fits together, it's not really new wave, it's not really electro, it's not really disco, etc. It's a clash of all those things and house. But none of those things either. I mean could I be more vague? The pick makes sense when you listen to it.

88 Chromeo - Needy Girl

Clash Of The Titans 6 (repost)

A continuation of the repost of indescribable pick of Electroclash, new new wave or nouveau disco, tech pop or just dance music. Who the hell knows? It just fits together for me. This volume of the playlist has more remixes. It has a couple of more well known tracks and a couple I doubt you've heard before. Enough with the introductions, because we all know there isn't anything that will make it understandable except to listen to it.

Clash Of The Titans 5 (repost)

This repost of volume five of the electroclash pick has one of my favorite tracks from a band (producer?) I have no idea about. I just know I like the track. Ctrl Z vs Screwface. Especially when it is Zedd. Control Zedd. So obviously not from the US. But what a way to start off a volume than with that intro. A bunch of remixes and cool unknowns. I just like it. No explanations or reasons. All these years and I still have no idea. But at least it's now updated.

Clash Of The Titans 5

62 Ctrl Z vs Screwface - StereoTypical

63 Blackjoy - Moustache (La Stache)

72 Abel Ramos - Te Quiero Puta

73 Ctrl Z - Badman (Screwface Remix)

Clash Of The Titans 4 (repost)

More electroclash in this series pick repost. Although I would suggest that only some of this is really electroclash and the rest is a some other kind of flavor edm. A couple of tracks that are covers, at least one that feels like a cover but is an original. A few remixes and one of my own edits. All danceable and kinda go well together. Over the last couple of volumes, you've probably noticed some of the same names come up. No accident.

Clash of The Titans 4

Clash Of The Titans 3 (repost)

Continuing the Clash Of The Titans playlist series, this repost pick of electroclash is just getting interesting. A couple of older songs mixed with newer songs that sure seem danceable. Less remixes this outing. I like the mix of Cabaret Voltaire and Talking Heads mixed with Juan Maclean and Hot Chip. I couldn't tell you anything about Fujiya & Miyagi, but I love the sound. Fischerspooner and LCD Soundsystem had hits later but here they were just blips.

Clash Of The Titans 2 (repost)

Repost of part 2 of this pick I call electroclash, but it really isn't all that. Mostly good danceable new new wave and even some edgier house. Songs from bands no one except for a select few really knows or remembers, but you will dance to it. Is this EDM? Gasp! Who cares? It mixes well, people dance to it and it just sounds good. Stop judging so much. This pick is mine and I like it. Just play it and dance. Love on the edits and remixes.

Clash Of The Titans 1 (Repost)

I'm reposting this series of picks again since I was working on the electroclash one the other day. 

I originally put together this series of playlists around the time of the emergence of electroclash and although it isn't all that, it sounds enough like it it to start this series. I think I was watching the Clash Of The Titans movie or seeing a computer game or something like that and so this was born. It was more just danceable stuff that mixed real well. I hope you like it. I made a few of these and the theme doesn't hold up really at all. But it didn't matter, because I liked this pick and played it a lot. Lots of remixes.

Clash Of The Titans 1

01 The Killers - Somebody Told Me (Mylo Remix Edit)

02 Cream vs Hoxton Whores - Sunshine Of Your Love (Braund Remix)

Electrowave (Repost)

Repost with new links just so you can see the progression. Not the same as the Clash Of TheTitans series. First this is only one comp. But as I was making the other playlists, I realized there was some stuff that was much like new wave and little like electro and it was pretty good. So I took some new stuff and matched it with a couple of older tracks that fit to make this one for you. Ladytron, Freezepop and Miss Kittin started this for me, the rest came naturally.

02 Freezepop - Bike Thief (Kryptonite Remix)

What's The Connection? Balls

Well, that World Cup could have gone better for an American with Dutch heritage. The U.S. is out, the Netherlands is out, and I am left doing the usual family math where disappointment somehow has two flags on it. At least my Belgian cousins are still happy, because their team is still playing with their balls. That is probably more than I needed to say, but here we are. I am not comparing this to boobs. Different subject entirely. This Connection just happens to be the one that still has something bouncing. 

What's The Connection? Balls

01 Isaac Hayes - Chocolate Salty Balls (P.S. I Love You)

19 Bobby Vee - Rubber Ball

20 Stray Cats - Gonna Ball

21 AC-DC - Big Balls

Electroclash

I never understood why electroclash disappeared while so many of the ideas stuck around. The fashion mostly went away, but the attitude never really did. These tracks are full of icy synths, deadpan vocals, and enough swagger to convince you they don't care whether you like them or not. Apparently I do. If you're looking around the House for something a little stranger than the usual four on the floor, this Pick should do nicely. Twenty years later, it still sounds like the future showed up with a smirk.

Electroclash

What's The Connection? Vacation (repost)

Repost  of this one from 2022: People tend to take vacations in the summer, although for many it's been staycations or having a holiday at home. But this was made some time ago, before the really bad inflation and huge gas prices. All the songs have vacation in the title. Yes, I know that some people say they go on holiday (that's another WTC?). This one is strictly a vacation connection. I knew I had to have the Go-Go's in here, the rest went around that. I came up with a few good ones. Again let me know if your favorite vacation song isn't in here. And enjoy whatever vacation you are having this year. I hope it's sweet. And yes, that's me on the Jetski.

What's The Connection? Sunshine (repost)

Another repost with new links and new blurb: Every long weekend seems to reach the same point. The fireworks are over, the coolers are a little lighter, somebody forgot to put the lawn chairs away, and life starts easing back toward normal. Then the sun comes up, the coffee tastes just as good, and somehow summer keeps right on going. Maybe that's the best part about this season. Even after the celebrations are over, there's still another sunny day waiting. It's hot out so do something that cools you off. This Connection follows sunshine in just about every mood imaginable. Sometimes it warms things up, sometimes it disappears, and sometimes it shows up exactly when it is needed most. Whether you're spending the day outside or hiding from the heat, I hope this one brightens it just a little.

What's The Connection? Sunshine

What's The Connection? Summer (repost)

This is a repost with new links from four years ago with a whole new blurb: Summer always seems a little shorter than I remember. Maybe that's because we try to pack so much into it before the days start getting shorter again. Beach trips, backyard cookouts, vacations, long evenings that somehow disappear too quickly, and all the songs that end up becoming part of those memories. It doesn't really matter what year they came from. Every summer eventually finds its own soundtrack. This Connection stays with one season from beginning to end, wandering through breezy afternoons, hot city streets, romance, nostalgia, and just enough sunshine to make you forget how hot it actually is. Whether you're heading for the beach, the lake, the backyard, or just the air conditioning, these songs should fit somewhere along the way. I hope your summer lasts a little longer than it usually seems to.

America 250

America celebrates Independence Day every year, but turning 250 only happens once. Watching this year's World Cup has made the occasion feel even more special. Along with the matches, it has been fun seeing visitors from around the world discovering everyday American life for the first time. Sometimes it takes someone seeing your home with fresh eyes to remind you how many little things you have quietly taken for granted all along. That seems like a pretty good reason to celebrate. This Connection follows a few of the ideas that have shaped the country along the way: liberty, freedom, home, music, and a Saturday night or two. It even begins with the birthday song I have sung to friends and family for years whenever their special day comes around. After all, 250 candles deserve something a little different. I have a feeling some of those visitors are going home with a different picture of America than the one they arrived with. This year's 4th of July seemed like the right time to celebrate that.

Americanos

One of my favorite parts of this year's World Cup has been watching visitors from around the world experience everyday America. Not the landmarks or the postcards, but the things most of us stopped noticing years ago. Sometimes it's a restaurant, sometimes it's the size of a grocery store, sometimes it's unlimited drink refills or discovering ranch dressing for the first time, and sometimes it's a place that somehow turned a gas station into a destination all by itself. Seeing those reactions has been a nice reminder that culture isn't just found in museums. A lot of it happens in the ordinary places we pass every day. This pick is really about perspective. Tomorrow's 4th of July seems like the perfect time to celebrate that. I have a feeling some of those visitors are going home with a different picture of America than the one they arrived with.

Happy Anniversary! (repost)

Repost: This connection or pick of anniversary songs is because today is my anniversary. Been married quite a while (since '07 if you want to know). I actually celebrate it twice a year six months apart because we had a church wedding six months after our actual wedding. Makes it kind of fun. Now these songs, however, are not all celebratory, but they do all have Anniversary in the title. Just don't play them for you other half and expect it to be all nice-nice. Some are. Some are not. I keep hoping there will be a better, newer anniversary song to celebrate, than the Little River Band, which isn't really about their anniversary, but celebrating that his significant other is happy with someone else. But it sounds happy! Oh well! Duran Duran is more in line with the sentiment, but it's not their best song.

Pulsing Aura

Two wormholes opening on consecutive days seems a little excessive. Then again, I watched enough wormhole science fiction to believe they probably happen more often than we notice. I even named one of my boxers Ka D'Argo and a foster Aeryn Sun, so I guess I committed to that idea years ago. This pick turns the dial up from yesterday. Fire, rescue, battles, martyrs, robbers, rats, and a Mississippi Queen all come charging through, somehow staying in step despite coming from completely different musical worlds. At 140 BPM, I probably didn't have much choice.

Another wormhole opened and this group wandered through together. They probably should not fit nearly as well as they do, but that is half the fun. I still build these around the music first, then sit back and see what else shows up. This pick turned into a Fantastical Parade of unusual voices, quirky personalities, and songs that seem happier traveling in odd company than on their own. The title is another clue to the game behind these mixes. I have a feeling plenty of people already have it in their pocket, even if they have not connected the dots yet. Has anyone figured it out? If you do, please let everyone else keep guessing. My friend ID is always available if you want to compare collections.

What's The Connection? Message 2

Sometimes getting the message across takes longer than the message itself. I can spell something out repeatedly, provide examples, even hand over the instructions, and AI will still decide I probably meant something else. At least the spelling and grammar will be goodly. That felt oddly appropriate for this Connection. Messages are everywhere. Some are clear. Some get mangled beyond recognition before they arrive. This is the message to you: I love and hate AI. I just had to get that off my chest.

What's The Connection? Cheyenne

Cheyenne always sounded more like a place than a people to me. Maybe that's because I grew up with the television show before I knew much about the history behind the name. That turns out to be fitting, because this Connection wanders back and forth between the people, the places named after them, and whatever else borrowed the name along the way. If you want to Jump On It instead, the Apache are only a click away. This one is plainly different.

What's The Connection? Apache

Apache always makes me think of Taza. He was my first dog as a kid. His dad was a show dog named Cochise (look him up), so somebody decided to keep the theme going. Taza was extremely well trained, although he never had much of a show business career. My brother and I spent plenty of nights sleeping in his spot with him anyway. I got the dog because my doctor said I was allergic to dogs and my pop called nonsense on that. His solution was simple. Put me around dogs all the time and I'd get over it. Back then we also thought seat belts weren't really needed. We lived. Decades later I still have boxers, and I am still allergic. Pop wasn't completely right, but he wasn't completely wrong either. Somewhere in there is the Connection. We weren't brave, just thought differently.

Friday Connection Repost

Repost of a What's The Connection? for a Friday. Not as many great Friday songs, although I'm sure I am missing something (let me know in the comments). And I was totally lazy for the cover, appropriating a creative commons image and barely touching it. Click on it anyway. A few of these tracks are just so great and any compilation with both the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Fishbone can't be bad. And those aren't the best tracks by those guys...

What's The Connection? Fade 1

I knew what the cover was going to look like before I found most of the songs. If the word is "fade," you're almost obligated to start blending colors together until everything looks like an old paint commercial. There was a period when ombré was everywhere. Walls, clothing, hair (porbably mine at one time), probably a few dogs if you looked hard enough. The trend eventually faded away, but apparently it was still lurking somewhere in the back of my mind when I put this Connection together. Or maybe I only noticed that afterward and invented the story to explain it.

What's The Connection? Fade 1

Jermaine Jackson Pick

Jermaine always feels like the Jackson brother with the most complicated story. He was the one who stayed at Motown when the rest of the family left, largely because of his connection to Berry Gordy through marriage. He was also one of the few Jacksons who regularly played bass in the group's early years. Looking over this pick, I realized it is not really built around solo hits at all. The Jacksons selections all put Jermaine in the spotlight, many of the guest appearances exist because of his voice, and there is even a wonderfully unlikely DEVO connection tucked into the middle of the set. It ends up tracing his path through the family story, from bassist and brother to solo artist and eventually Jackson again. It is another interesting branch of the Jacksons family tree.

Jermaine Jackson Pick

01 Whitney Houston with Jermaine Jackson - If You Say My Eyes Are Beautiful

02 Jermaine Jackson - Don't Take It Personal

Janet Jackson Guests

Yesterday reminded me how many different Janets there are. Today I ask what happens when you add somebody else to the mix. Sometimes she takes over the record. Sometimes she slips into the background and lets the guest shine. Sometimes it's hard to tell whose song it really is. For a pick, this one jumps between R&B, hip hop, dance, reggae, and a few combinations that probably should not work as well as they do. It also turns into a surprisingly good tour through a few decades of collaborators. Did you catch yesterday's bonus B side? There seem to be a lot of Jacksons around here lately. Also, I was just wondering today why do I own seven different sets of headphones?

Janet Jackson Guests

Janet Jackson Pick

Janet is one of those artists where everybody can make a greatest hits playlist, but once I started pulling tracks together I noticed how many different Janets there are. New jack swing Janet. Velvet rope Janet. Dance floor Janet. Quiet late night Janet. Even a little rock Janet sneaks in. For a pick, this one stays surprisingly balanced. The big singles are here, but it never feels stuck in one era or one mood. I also finally got around to the Janet playlist I mentioned years ago in the family pick post, so I can cross that off the list. Maybe you'll tell me what I missed.

Janet Jackson Pick

01 Janet Jackson - No Sleeep

02 Janet Jackson - That's The Way Love Goes

Jacksons Pick Repost

Repost: There are tons of choices to make for a Jacksons playlist pick. Most compilations include either the Jacksons or the Jackson 5. This has both. It does not include Michael's hits, nor Jermaine's (and nothing from Rebbie or Janet or Randy or Tito etc.) just all of the boys together. It's not all disco or Motown, but a little of all their stuff. It does contain their biggest hits as both the Jacksons and The Jackson 5. Look for the Jackson Family pick and some individual Jacksons.

Jacksons Pick

01 Jackson 5 - I'll Be There

02 Jacksons - Dreamer

03 Jackson 5 - Never Can Say Goodbye

04 Jacksons - Show You The Way To Go

05 Jackson 5 - ABC

06 Jackson 5 - I Want You Back

07 Jackson 5 - Mama's Pearl

08 Jackson 5 - The Love You Save

09 Jackson 5 - Dancing Machine

10 Jacksons - Enjoy Yourself

11 Jacksons - Shake Your Body Down To The Ground

12 Jacksons - Blame It On The Boogie

13 Jacksons - Can You Feel It

14 Jacksons - Walk Right Now

15 Jacksons - Lovely One

16 Jacksons with Mick Jagger - State Of Shock

17 Jacksons - Torture

18 Jacksons - Heartbreak Hotel (This Place Hotel)

Jackson Family Pick Repost

Repost: Well, since I was reposting this, I fixed an error, added a track, so this is the new version of this. The Family Jackson Pick is all the biggest hits (for me) of the Jackson family. So I include the Jackson 5 and the Jacksons, but also a Michael, Janet, Jermaine, La Toya, Rebbie, Randy, Tito, Marlon and Jackie. With so many, I am bound to have forgotten someone, but I hope not. I gave most of the solo spots two tracks, one each for Jacksons and Jackson 5 (since it sort of is the same group) and also for Jackie, Randy and Marlon. One track is from Janet and Michael! Eventually, I will do a Janet pick (maybe a Jermaine), but the rest of these Jacksons, I don't think I could make one with enough that I like. This will have to do.

Jackson Family Pick

01 Tito Jackson with Kenny Neal, Marlon Jackson & Bobby Rush - Love One Another

02 Randy Jackson - How Can I Be Sure

03 Janet Jackson - That's The Way Love Goes

04 Jackson 5 - I Want You Back

10 Jacksons - Blame It On The Boogie

16 Michael Jackson - Beat It

17 Tito Jackson featuring Big Daddy Kane - Get It Baby

18 Marlon Jackson - Don't Go

Michael Jackson 2

The man is still all over the radio and somehow putting out fresh material. It is a bit wild for someone who basically died of milk, but the momentum never really stopped. This set mixes in some of those posthumous releases alongside the older stuff, which feels right with the new movie out now. Hard to believe how there are still "new" Michael Jackson songs going crazy on the charts. I remember watching the cartoon as a kid in The Valley. We were actually pretty close to Neverland, though I never made it past the gates myself. This latest pick sits nicely next to volume 1 to show how the different eras of his career actually mesh together. It makes you wonder how much more is left in the vaults.

Michael Jackson 2

19 Michael Jackson - Butterflies

20 Michael Jackson - Off The Wall

21 Michael Jackson - Earth Song

22 Michael Jackson with Akon - Hold My Hand

23 Michael Jackson - Remember The Time

31 Michael Jackson - P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing)

32 Michael Jackson - Human Nature

33 Michael Jackson - Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'

34 Michael Jackson vs Earth, Wind & Fire - Don't Stop 'Til September

Michael Jackson 1 repost

Repost: Originally I wasn't going to post this, but some people had messaged me and asked why the disco (leopard) series hardly had any Michael Jackson in it. The reason is this playlist. Any disco party I played, I would of course play the songs in the disco series that I have already posted, but I also brought along this playlist of my MJ picks. Yes. I also brought along Saturday Night Fever, some extra Bee Gee's etc. I wasn't going to post this, because you can find tons of great Michael Jackson greatest hits albums out there. This is just my pick. Many of you will disagree with some of my choices, but I stand by them. Tell me your favorites in the comments. You've probably already seen the companion Jacksons playlist. And tomorrow I post the second volume (never posted before.)

Michael Jackson Pick

01 Jackson 5 - Dancing Machine

02 Michael Jackson - Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough

RIYL Y&T (Recommended If You Like Yesterday and Today) repost

Repost of this pick: Bay Area band (Oakland, Caifornia) Y&T also known as Yesterday and Today hasn't done much lately, but were and are influential in the area of heavy metal. At least one member of Metallica started playing because of this band. Anyway, as a California boy, I liked the band and I love making RIYL compilations every now and again. So here are my recommendations if you like Y&T. Or if you like one of these songs and don't listen to Y&T, perhaps you should. And try to find the albums of all these artists, they are all good. BTW this song by them isn't even the best or most popular, but it does rock.

RIYL Y&T

01 Y&T - Don't Stop Runnin'

02 Michael Schenker Group - Armed And Ready
03 Montrose - Bad Motor Scooter
04 Triumph - Fight the Good Fight
05 Krokus - Screaming In The Night
06 Helix - Rock You
07 Autograph - Turn Up The Radio
08 Motley Crue - Smokin in the Boys Room

Repost of this 2021 post: Yet another attempt at another volume of What's The Connection? Rock and Roll.
