Where has all the love gone?


So while going through my music I realized I haven't made a nice "soulful" mix in a while, and with Valentine's Day around the corner I thought this would be perfect...but don't expect this mix to get you laid, lol!

I decided to call this mix "Where has all the love gone" cause while searching for tracks, I realized I didn't have as much new soulful housemusic as I used to. In this day and age where anyone can make music on a computer (including myself, haha) quantity has won over quality and I find myself buying less and less of the good stuff.

But not to fear, there are still many Housemusic SOULdiers out there making meaningful music and this mix is a testament of that. Expect nothing but Deep, Sensual and Vocal goodness on this one!!

1. QNB - Electricity (Wayne Gardiner Remix)
2. Jody Watley - Waiting in vain (Ron Trent Remix)
3. Black Coffee - Come back

9. Qness feat Malehloka - Uzongilinda (Abicah Soul Mix)
10. Reelsoul - Anotha Day
11. Wayne Gardiner feat. Karina - Bacio (Kiss)
12. Atjazz - City Madness (A&D's 4 the Summer Remix)
13. Donna Allen - He is the joy (Rocco Remix)
