Time for a change...

The Ru-Mix is changing. The mixes are shorter now, and will be released with increased frequency. I will still send out email updates but only once a month, recapping what has been posted. If you want to download it when I post either check the blog every two weeks or become my friend on facebook! I hope you guys enjoy the new format.

Ru-Mix: In For The Kill

This is a really fun house mix that should really get you moving. Perfect energizer before going out, or dancing with your tinas at a party. Some of these mixes have been around for a while but any house music fan should appreciate the flow. Of course, my favorites are in bold but I must highlight the "Diva" mix, "Love Takes Over" (which WILL be the song of the summer) and the disco-riffic "Walking on a Dream." A new house mix will be released in the upcoming weeks so check back soon!

RMV24: Electronic Poet

First of all, sorry all of the Ru-Mixes are coming out of order... the truth is I made the covers before the mixes were ready. Also, wanted to apologize for sending so much out so quickly - When I took the break I was still making my mixes for myself and I still want to share - want to make sure I send it out before it gets (too) stale.

Anyway, here we have a mix that's more in the same vein of Movie Star, but brings it to a whole different level. If you're a fan of acoustic guitars, soft sounds, breathy vocals - this mix is NOT for you. As the title implies all the songs have an electronic touch and some of them have been ripped apart and are barely recognizeable from their non-remixed original versions. I LOVE this mix. It's dark, dirty, poppy, and glam all at the same time. I live for it at the gym, at home when I'm getting ready, driving around (when I do)... etc. I hope you guys enjoy it as much as I do!

For those that are anticipating a "normal" (dance / pop / not too electro) Ru-Mix, keep a watch on your inbox for Ru-Mix Vol.23: Quicksand, coming soon.

As always, favorite tracks are in bold

Ru-Mix Vol. 25: Dil Dance Maare Re

Oh boy, Bollywood music was quite depressing as of late, fortunately I've been able to quite a few tracks over the last 2 years... that will help you have a rocking bollywood party, or at least if you want to just dance around mad in your bedrooom :) The beginning of the mix is definitely more traditional, colorful Bollywood fare, while halfway thru the "club mixes" creep up to keep you moving. Overall it's a fun mix... If anyone is in NYC I'll be at Sholay next week hopefully dancing to some of these tunes - come by if you're ready to DANCE :)

(FYI, Ru-Mix 23: Quicksand, and Ru-Mix 24: Electronic Poet, both more "traditional ru-mixes" will be arriving to you inbox in the coming weeks, look for it soon!)

Have a good weekend,
Ru

Clearly if you look at the tracklist below this mix isnt' for everyone, hence the "Special edition" moniker. This mix is definitely heavy on beats (if the 10 minute opening track is any indication) but it's a really fun party mix or for the gym. I like it because it starts on the darker side and then get's bubbly and poppy towards the end. It's a bit on the long side (over 2 hrs long) but if you have the time definitely give it a listen from beginning to end I think it flows well and will definitely get your booty shaking. Have fun kids, this mix is one of my favorites! Comments always appreciated.

XOXO,
Ru

RMSE: Please Don't Stop the Music

Ok, I know I said RMV20 was the last Ru-Mix but I had to make one last special edition for this weekend's festivities. Below is a compilation of my favorite remixes throughout the past year. Perfect for to get you groovin' before you go out, the gym, or even hosting your own party. Ideally this would be the perfect set for me, a little dark and heavy in the beginning and then getting light and poptastic by the end. Anyway, this really is the final one. Thanks everyone it's been rad, be safe and have a fun weekend! Happy Pride!

RMV19: I Want Those Flashing Lights

I've been working on an "American" mix since RMV15... a lot of people have complained that the past few mixes were a little too Europop for their taste so here's a mix featuring mostly American artists. Unfortunately I am not finding most of the American pop/r&b fare inspiring so some of these songs may be "old" (they're still fresh but I doubt this is the first time you're hearing them). Some of these songs have been on rotation on my iPod since October of 2007. Sorry I'm just getting them to you now but its better late than never! As always, favorites are in bold and don't forget to buy the song/cd if you like it! As for what's next... how about something rock/band-centric?

Ru-Mix Vol. 16: Happy Ending

So, as you've noticed, the blog has gone invite only. If you would like to share with your friends just have them drop me an email and I'll send them an invite... Anyway, this time I'm back with a "chill" mix. I've been listening to it for a while now and I'm really digging it. Its just a little bit under 2hours long so its perfect background music while entertaining, hanging out etc. It's quite soothing on the subway as well.

The title track has two versions, the album version and the Kleerup (of "With Every Heartbeat" fame) remix... make sure your iPod is set to "gapless" playback and it will blend the two into a perfect, "happy ending." Because we all really need one... (I was a little down while making this mix so I apologize for its shades of melancholy). Check back in 2 weeks for an all new dance friendly mix ;) As always, favorites are in bold:

RMV15: Nouveaux Intrus & Taaza Taal

Ru-Mix Vol.15: DOUBLE DISC SPECIAL

Hey all, its been a while, time for a new Ru-Mix! As many of you know, I spent the last month in Europe and I had an amazing time, the best part being exposed to all sorts of new music! I fell in love with Paris so we have a dash of French Pop on the new mix with a whole lot of new favorites on RMV15.1: Nouveaux Intrus. Also, I usually do a bollywood / desi mix on the 5s but this time i did something different, I created a "bonus disc"which highlights pop songs from past and present that have some desi flavor (RMV15.2: Taaza Taal).

Ru-Mix Vol. 10: Bolly-licious

Ru- Mix Vol. 10: Bolly-licious

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=47MGZZN1

It's so delicious. LoL. Anyway, I'm back with a hot new bollywood mix, this time focusing on different genres (not a qawalli in sight!). The cool thing is you can put this mix and Ru-Mix Vol. 5: Fanaa on the Dancefloor on the same playlist, hit shuffle and have yourself a rocking Bollywood Party! I feel like on this mix I've showcased some very unique but mainstream voices -- much more different than your typical Bollywood film (oh Alka Yagnik, just stop) and way more fun. Anyway, tracklist is below -- enjoy!

1. Beedi Jalai Le
the hottest song of 2006 -- Sunidhi Chauhan sounds great on this track. The chorus roughly translates to: "Light a beedi with the fire from the heart, if there isn't enough fire at home then go get it from the neighbors..." full lyric translations can be found here.
2. Mayya Mayya
the "humma humma" of 2007, this song has a great Turkish flavor. Composer A.R. Rahman (Bombay Dreams) gives us a real treat
3. Bure Bure
keeping with the Turkish theme, this is a fun boy's song where the chorus roughly translates to "Hey, we're (naughty) devils, no one can escape us"
4. Ni Main Samajh Gayee
an old song, but highly underrated... i absolutely love A.R. Rahman's compisitions and Richa Sharma's sultry voice does this song wonders
5. Hitchki (Akbar Sami Mix)
finally, my favorite contemporary Indian singer, Sonu Kakkar (also on Fanaa...), is back with a hot new item number. the song is done in a typical Marathi folk style -- i think she's singing about her love making her heart skip a beat (literally - hiccup).
6. Ishq ka Tadka
Adnan Sami has one of the most unique voices in Hindi playback today, as does his companion in this sexy number, Sonu Kakkar. The title translates to "A Piece of Love"
7. Sajnaji Vari Vari
Sunidhi Chauhan is riding the radio waves in Mumbai right now with this hot track about how much she loves her darling
8. O Sikander
Sonu Kakkar and Kailash Kher really rock this song -- ok its a qawwalli but i had to sneak at least one in!
9. Aika Dajiba
Vaishali Samant sings anohter typical Marathi folk song -- they're really fun to watch on video as well... I don't really understand Marathi but from what I've read this song is about a very strong man (with a big mustache).
10. Crazy Kiya Remix
i didn't really like this song at first, but then when Ashwariya Rai danced to this hot number in Dhoom:2, I was instantly addicted.
11. Main Deewana (G-Mix)
Dancer/Choreographer Ganesh Hegde tries his hands at singing and gives us a very Usher/Justin Timberlake-y track with enough desi spin to call it his own
12. Meter Down
Adnan Sami is back with a hilarious and hot new song about how money makes the world go 'round
13. Dhoom Again
many of you have heard the song song, Dhoom Dhoom, from Ru-Mix Vol. 1: Take Me Out, this is the follow up to that song and the hindi original. I also didn't like it at first, but then i saw this. and this.
14. Kiss Me Baby
another fun Adnan Sami song -- this one about how "Hot n' Spicy" (Garam Masala) the ladies are
15. Baan Far Kay
yes, I just plain love JoSH. and I think it's so cool that they collaborate with Nelly Furtado so much. (also check out RMV7, and RMV8 for their Promiscuous and Maneater remixes)
16. Right Here Right Now (Dhol Mix)
Actor Abhishek Bachan tries his hand at singing(?) this hip hop influenced song. I think the Dhol beat is what steps up its lieability for me.
17. Teri Masti
JoSH and Rishi Rich collaboration -- really hot Bhangra-ish track.
18. Babuji Zara Dheere Chalo (Bijli Mix)
The original "folk" mix is on Fanaa. Here's Sonu Kakkar at her raunchiest--just how we like her, Dirrty like Christina used to be.
19. Ya Ali (Suketu Mix)
This song is completely lifted off of an Arabic track -- oh well, it's still hot.
20. Aa Bhi Jaa
Sonu Kakkar and Ganesh Hegde are perfect for this song about yearning. This is my dream song to choreograph -- it would be so much fun. Anyone interested dancing to it?
21. Billo (Lounge Mix)
Sunidhi Chauhan rocks this mellow beat with a little help from musical genius Ustad Sultan Khan.
22. Bindu re Bindu
I love this guys voice. Unfortunately I have no idea who the singer is. This is a cover/remix of a song from the 1960's film: Padosan
23. Chaandi Ke Teri Surmedaani
Brand new track. Sonu Kakkar (yes again) guest stars over a hot dance beat with Sukwinder Singh handling the reins.
24. Beedi (Suketu Mix)
The hottest remix of the hottest song of 2005. (see above)

Ru-Mix Vol.9: Ooh!

Hi guys... just in time for the holidays, it's Ru-Mix Vol.9! This one is titled "Ooh" because all of the songs put me in a great mood. The beginning is very electro/pop/dancey, then a bit of euro, followed by some "hip-pop," chill and to end it all some dance/diva. The last track may be a little random but its actually a really good "end of the party" track.

Anyway, since this is a long play list, I have recommended an alternative "light" version. It isn't a different link, just download as normal but only add the tracks in bold to your itunes, they're the best of the bunch, but of course, i like them all and think its a better mix as a whole. Don't forget to comment with your suggestions :)

Ru-Mix Vol.8 : do the ru-box

big problem in the house of ru. my computer crashed and I lost all of my music (over 30 gigs) / pictures etc. thankfully i transferred ru-mix vol.8 online prior to this! this mix is different because its really all over the place. for the first couple of listens you should probably listen to it with the "shuffle" feature turned off, and since the list is a little long (38 songs!) i have separated it into 2 "discs," day and night. so go ahead, enjoy the mix and "do the ru-box"

anyway, thanks for all the great comments about RMV7: Deja Ru. If you have anything to say this time around (good or bad) please post in the comments section below though. why? so everyone else can read how good this shit is ;) (just kidding. well, ok only partly.)

** since i can't get around to writing the guide until the weekend i have highlighted my favorite tracks (its really hard to choose though) in bold:

Ru-Mix Vol.7: Deja Ru

This is the hottest mix I've ever made. It has new singles from Justin Timberlake, Christina Aguilera, Beyonce, Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas, Jessica Simpson, and a lot of independent rock-bands, all to make a phat summer dance cd. We also have the introduction to Paris Hilton's new music--the best that money can buy. I've been listening to playlist non stop for the past few weeks to make the perfect mix of cheesy summer pop that is irresistable to dance to. I hope you guys like it, I'll post my comments later.
