The Stranjj Selections series has become one that people truly look forward to, and in knowing that, for the first time ever, I actually completely scrapped the originally aired June Stranjj Selections -- it wasn't Stranjj enough.

You see, being Stranjj is about sticking out amongst the pack, it's about being creative and most of all, it's about quality. So nothing but the best for all of you, and this mix... is definitely me at my best. 16 tracks in 60 minutes. Layered, chopped, edited, wet with FX and all blended together quite Stranjjly. Do enjoy...

Stranjj sex is always intriguing, and as the weather warms up, so does Stranjj Selections. This month's Stranjj Selections mix is full of deep, soulful, downright sexy house music.

This one features a plethora of upfront tunes from Noir Music, Dirt Crew, Urbantorque to name a few -- I hope you enjoy it -- and please practice safe sex!

Over the summer, the Stranjjur project will become increasingly prominent, as Kev joins forces with fellow Stranjjur Francisco V. in the studio, on the radio, and at several scheduled live shows in FL and NY. Stay tuned!

Spring is in the air, which can only mean one thing: the April Stranjj Selections is here and available for your listening pleasure.

A lot of work went into this month's mix, so I can only hope that all of you enjoy it.

Features new upfront promos from Peace Division, Audiofly & Alex Flitsch, Dyed Soundorom, and some of biggest new releases out at the moment.

But this isn't about big tunes, it's about what lies in between the tracks, it's about how much bigger those tracks become when complimented with the elements of 2 or 3 other big tunes.

It's about being Stranjj..each and every one of these tunes were stranjjurs. They are now one. Enjoy.

Follow me on Twitter!

Heavy on the tech influence, and bursting at the seems with brand new music, as always! I hope you all enjoy, and thank you for making Stranjj Selections one of the most downloaded series in DJMix.net history!

Tender tech house grooves that slowly morph into complete and utter mayhem.

Put your Pumas on for this one, you're gonna need 'em.

Exclusive guest mix for one of my favorite stations.. Soundset Radio, Bulgaria.

Features amazing tunes from D-Nox & Beckers, Bush II Bush, Stan Kolev, Fady Farraye, Cid Inc, Jalebee Cartel, Yvel & Tristan, Niko Fantin, Federico Epis and Peter McGill.

Air date: Jan 18th 2009

14 tracks are featured in just under 60 mins, and the set stays true to the techy and gritty sound of Stranjjur.

Many new promos and exclusives are unveiled, and things end off with a world premiere bonus track from house legend, Ian Pooley.

Due to situations out of my control, this will likely be the last Stranjj Selections show ever for Danceradio. Actions are being taken to get the show moved to a new and suitable home. Many of danceradio's shows will face the same situation, as the station is liquidating almost 90% of it's shows and moving to only one channel.

A selections of tunes that vary from the old to the unreleased, which all share one common trait.. smooth as silk.

As I am unable to completely conform to one style, the sounds grows in both energy and nastiness with every transition.. so for those who were fans of my "Hamptons Live" and October Proton sets, this is for you!

I hope you all enjoy, cheers and Happy Holidays to you! Enjoy!

One track worth noting is The BeatThief's upcoming tune "Dub Be Bad"..it's seriously going to be a major anthem, so be sure not to miss it, and Peter McGill's upcomer "Jackin" is also one worth looking out for. Don't forget where you heard 'em first! Right here on Stranjj Selections!

Stranjj Selections is Kev Obrien's monthly show on Danceradio.gr, which broadcasts every 2nd Monday from 14:00-16:00 GMT+2 / 7am-9am EST

**This mix also aired on DI.FM's ExposureNYC on Dec 26th. ExposureNYC is a showcasing of NYC's hottest underground artists, check it out at http://www.di.fm/exposurenyc/

During the first hour, I lay down some of the sickest new techno and tech house; starting off deep and groovy, into pure tech-driven hysteria. Cid Inc from Mashtronic takes over on the decks during hour two, gracing us with some amazing progressive and tech, while throwing down many of his own upfront productions.

This set was recorded live Sept 6th at End of Summer party in New York.

Featuring unreleased music from Oliver Lang, Mashtronic, M%D Substance and new releases from Dubfire, Funkagenda, Nick Bridges and more!

There are some very long transitions in this mix, actually the Jona track played on top of it's surrounding tracks for it's entire duration. Some excellent tracks within this mix worth noting are 'Bang the Drum', remixed by Nick Bridges, and the Outsider's track, which has an awesome female vocal that fits with the vibe perfectly!

Volume 3 next month!
