It’s a holiday weekend, I’m still awake, so I figured why not post one more mix before calling a night!

I can’t imagine a more fitting name for this mixtape. Jolly House Jams, released by DJ Dan in 1992, is over 90 minutes of exactly what the title says it is. If you like house music, I dare you to listen to this without smiling.

This Jon Williams mixtape is from DREAM, a recurring event that was held in Los Angeles, in the early to mid 90’s. These were great parties, with a consistent lineup of great DJs like DJ Dan, Ernie Munson, Barry Weaver and many others.
I have a complete DREAM party recorded that I’ll be posting in

Dang! I’ve been looking for my own tape forever!!! I’m glad you guys have it posted, grateful…
I’ll shoot you the track listing after downloading, completely forgot what’s on it. It’s been that long. Mike Messex did the artwork, commissioned by Orlando Puerta of Citrusonic; it went on the same press run with Steve Loria’s “Deep Space” mix-tape. They both were released at the same time. -CH

I’m still looking for “Xperience”, “Icarus” and “For The People”… -CH

I forgot that this inspired me. After hearing this, I had to go out and get the 2 tracks I loved the most. 2 tracks that I would still play to this day are, “house of nice” & “Reyna page”, cookie side.
Thanks for posting this.

@Chris, I was excited when I found your tape – nice mix and selection! Thanks for the info on the design, Mike did a great job with it. I have Steve Loria’s “Deep Space” as well – we’ll be posting it soon – and it definitely looks like the same person designed both covers. Good stuff!
Thanks for the ID’s as well… I’m guessing DJ Essentials / Acapella Anonymous Vol.3 “Just Be Good To Me” should replace Fourplay in the tracklist (I think that’s what the original sample came from?).
I know I saw at least one more of your tapes in storage… I think it was “For The People”, but I’m not positive. I’ll be sure to keep an eye out for them next visit.

@Chris, do you happen to have any of Orlando’s old mixes? I had one in particular, from 1993 I believe, that I’d love to find again. I don’t remember the title unfortunately.

Chris, do you remember the old Melodic mix tape with you on one side and Farina on the other?
That was the shit.
Would you happen to know the name of the track about the guy who went to Africa to learn about the drums?
Much thanks
