Anthony Whitlock's Podcast

Heading into July '26 is the latest edition of UP!. This set starts out with some fantastic house and pop tracks and progresses into some big room anthems. The set kicks off with Russ Rich and Andy Allder's brand new original track "Body And Soul". This is a beautiful house track with excellent vocals and production. The pair also lend their remix magic to "Raise it Up - Together" by Stephen Jusko & DJ Blacklow ft. Debbie Holiday. Andy appears again on his remix of "Eternal Flame" with Matt Consola. Division 4 turns in two stellar remixes for Taylor Swift and Olivia Rodrigo respectively and of course Dirty Disco delivers thumping remixes for Lady Gaga & Doechii and Peyton respectively. There are some excellent covers in this set including "Eternal Flame", "In The Air Tonight" and "Freedom". Kylie Minogue's "Light Up" is transformed by Edson Pride and Tony Moran and Danny Verde also features a couple of tracks here. Enjoy

It's time for the men to shine. It is Pride month after all and the ladies have already featured on Pride Anthems. The Pride Men editions tend to lean towards gay or non binary artists but I've thrown a few straighties into the mix, basically because the songs are great and the remixes enhance them even further. Speaking of remixers', Dirty Disco, 7th Heaven, Division 4, Robbie Carrigan and Toy Armada & Jace M feature heavily here with excellent remixes of classic and current songs. Featured artists include Prince, Michael Jackson, Lionel Richie, Cheyenne Jackson, Jason Derulo and Elton John to name a few. This set starts out in the House arena and builds its way into the Big Room arena. As I always say, be happy, be safe and play nice with the other kids. Happy Pride. Enjoy

I have had great difficulty in publishing this episode due to some technical issues. I have had to cut the bio that Russ sent me completely out of the description as apparently there are too many characters - even after extensive editing. I will say this however, I love Russ and Andy's remixes and they have always been very generous in sharing them with me. They have been collaborating since around 2016 but Russ also has a history of work with Philip Grasso & Leo Frappier, and Andy with Wayne G. They have remixed for Dua Lipa, Kelly Clarkson, Billie Eilish and specifically for Taylor Swift as well as several collaborations with vocalist Debby Holiday. They are now moving into producing their own original songs. Their remixes are uplifting vocal club anthems and I have tried to include as many of them as I could in this Best Of edition. So if you are like me and love some dance floor euphoria in your music, take a journey through the incredible work of Russ Rich and Andy Allder. Enjoy
