End of a Beautiful Era... [For Now]
So here is the bad news: there will be no more tracks until Friday 3rd October. That's in five days time. I know it's sad and feels like the end of an era, but don't worry, I shall return then.
Actually, on second thoughts there is another piece of good news before today's post. House Music 101 is announcing a new sister blog coming in October/November time, called House Music 202. I'll reveal more about the sister site on Friday's post when I return, and explain what it's all about.
For today then, as a very small departing present, enjoy these:
Fragma - Memory (Klaas Dub Mix)
Nice new one from our pal Fragma there
Loventina - Nightshift (Original Mix)
Good progressive house sound
This track is from the amazing blog Digital Eargasm. It's by Sweet 17 and it's called "Supabeat." It's a great little electropop tune, enjoy it!
Sweet 17 - Supabeat
And this post has an exclusive album. It's all the remixes you could shake a stick at from Soft Cell. The album is called "Heat (The Remixes)" and has two disks of gorgeous mash-ups and remixes from our favourite Soft Cell tracks. Enjoy (tracklisting below)!

Pirates Love House Music 101... Still
A tune is set to be one of the biggest of the season now as we move into the Winter house season. It's only 6 months to go until the launch of Winter Music Conference 2009, but oddly only 2 months until the actual Winter season - don't ask why the WMC is in March every year, it just is.
Anyway, this essential new tune is a mash-up of the Pirates of the Caribbean theme tune, and its by the dark horse DJ who goes by the name of Scotty:
Scotty - Pirates of the Caribbean (Radio Edit)
Scotty - Pirates of the Caribbean (Club Mix)
Scotty - Pirates of the Caribbean (Dave Darell Radio Edit)
Scotty - Pirates of the Caribbean (Dave Darell Remix)
Scotty - Pirates of the Caribbean (Trance Mission Mix)
Scotty - Pirates of the Caribbean (Steve Satellite Radio Edit)
Scotty - Pirates of the Caribbean (Steve Satellite Remix)
This IS a new must-have, and I love it, so tell me your thoughts on Scotty's new track.
If you're into funky-deep mash-ups of pop tunes, take this one, it's very nice:
Coldplay - Viva La Vida (King Richard Remix)
I'm not so convinced with this one, it's very amateurish, but nevertheless it works:
Dirty South & Axwell vs Madonna & Justin - 4 Minutes to Let It Go
These tracks, I am LOVING them all:
Eric Prydz vs Oasis - Pjanoo vs Wonderwall Hot remix mash-up
Maria Ochoa - Blow It Up (Original Mix) Amazing house tune
Again, if you download any of these tracks please obey the rules and read the legal disclaimer on the right of the blog. More to come tomorrow, but more importantly...

Episode 09 - The Comedown Mix
PODCAST DESCRIPTION:
You subscribers deserve an internet hug *internet hug* for what you have done. I know I am not exactly the best DJ and that my podcast doesn’t bring in all the listeners, but the figures are higher than ever still, and are closely rivalling my previous podcast, which was actually, as much as I hate to blow my own trumpet, quite successful. This is all thanks to you, so muchas gracias subscribers and newcomers, enjoy the show. I thought that I should post November's mix now because I am most likely to get into the habit of forgetting to update.
Today’s mix is called the comedown mix because really it started off with tunes that are perfect for your return after a night clubbing. When you’ve just got back after a night out (provided you’re alone ;p) there’s nothing better to loosen up to a bit of chill out dance, and the first few tracks are just perfect for that. However, my mixes sort of go off track whenever I try and stick to a theme, so there’s a tiny bit of electro and some deep house in there too, but mostly it’s chill out Ibiza zone.

Once again I thank you for your support, and as in last month’s mix, I thought I’d supply you with another *cough, cough* true house-related fact. Steve Angello and Sebastian Ingrosso are not only close-working DJs, but they were also the first duo to reach the top of Everest alone. Stay with the podcast for more amazing facts, and more importantly, more mixes. Please subscribe, rate and comment, as I ask you to and no one ever does comment or rate, it’d be nice. Thanks again, oh yeah, and here’s the legal stuff coming up, I know how much you enjoy that. But first, I think I’ll give you these websites, because they’re normally after the legal section and I doubt any of you read the legal so you probably miss it (please do read the legal bit though as well, it would make me happy):
www.myspace.com/hollobombay - add me
www.house-music-101.blogspot.com - the blog
www.djhollobombay.mypodcast.com - the podcast
Oh, and one last note, I know a month ago I used the TV Rock & Rudy track “Been A Long Time,” but this mix uses Axwell’s instrumental mix, before was the vocal club mix.
No track in this podcast is my own work, and belongs completely to their owners, all of whom are specified in the tracklisting (see above). Under no circumstance is it acceptable, or by any means lawful, for any listeners of this podcast to pass on this podcast or its contents, nor may they rip tracks from it. This is an unlawful act and is unfair to the artists and, indeed, the whole industry. I make these podcast purely for fun and to show people my work, not to hand out free tunes or for my own profit, this is a non-funded network. Thank you. (Note: If you like any tune in this podcast, all are available either in iTunes, BeatPort.com or both, so please feel free to purchase them)

Laidback Luke & Salzer - Generation Noise (TV Rock Remix)
Laidback Luke & Salzer - Generation Noise (Afrojack Remix)
Laidback Luke & Salzer - Generation Noise (Twocker Remix)
Now I await the next Laidback Luke release as much as the next guy, but I wasn't deeply amazed at the sound of this one. You may think this sounds pretty harsh, especially since it's actually a pretty safe track, and I'd give it 4 out of 5 stars, but for LL I expect at least 6 stars out of 5. Anyway, quite a good track, so tell me what you think.
Here are quite a few tracks which have been swarming the blogs recently:

Hot Trax: Axwell, Ingrosso, Angello & Hoxton Whores
Axwell & Sebastien Ingrosso - Together 2008 (Kyle Watson Bootleg)
I love "Together" it has that sort of Funkerman feel to it in the vocals, but definitely speaks Axwell & Ingrosso in the music itself. Gorgeous summer track for any house lover.
Dada Life - Sweeter Than Fever (David West & Ida Engberg Remix)
Quite a nice track, a bit Deadmau5, but nowhere near as good.
Steve Angello - Gypsy (Alvaro Remix)
Trust me, even if you weren't so keen on "Gypsy" you will like this edit. A nice vibe going on in this track, and for me I'm even tempted to call it a "must-have"
Stereo MCs - Black Gold (Fedde Le Grand Remix)
Fresh track for you here - released in the early hours of yesterday, yes this track isn't even 48 hours old yet! A nice track for the collection though, even if you're not a huge fan of Stereo MCs, or even DJ FLG.
Here's another 2 tracks that have been featured everywhere recently:
KOS - Azteka (Original Mix)
KOS - Azteka (Kos' Stadium Mix)
Leave your comments on them two, I am undecided at the moment...
Plus some more fresh tracks, take what you want:

September House Tracks Download
ErickE - Phreaker
A nice new track from ErickE, and it's long awaited. We haven't really heard much from him since "The Beat Is Rockin"
Wiley - Summertime (Alex Gaudino Remix)
Wiley's back with the new anthem "Summertime" and this is quite a gorgeous remix, although speaking honestly I'd say you either love it or you hate it
Deadmau5 - Bye Friend
I wasn't all that keen on Deadmau5 not so long ago, but "Fifths" and "Hi Friend" really turned that around. I'm not very keen on this track however, but comment on it here please, I like to hear your thoughts.
Katy Perry - I Kissed A Girl (Joaquin Phunk and JD Smith bangin Bootleg)
There have been hundreds of remixes of "I Kissed A Girl" going around, and I like this one.
Mark Knight & Funkagenda - Done & Dusted
Nice to see these two together, two excellent artists. Nice track an' all.
And now two different mixes of my current favourite track:
Steve Angello & Sebastien Ingrosso - Partouze (Original Mix)

The Top 50 DJ List
The Top 5
- Fedde Le Grand - hit after hit, DJ Fedde has constantly pleased the music scene, with masterpieces including "Put Your Hands Up For Detroit", "The Creeps" (featuring Camille Jones) and "Let Me Think About It" (featuring Ida Corr). Expect many a more hits from this man
- Pete Tong - one of the few good DJs England produces, this legendary DJ presents a weekly progressive house music show on BBC Radio 1 to start our weekends. He has created some neat tracks as well as many excellent remixes
- Joachim Garraud - now I know not many people would rank Garraud this highly, but he is one of my favourite DJs around, not only does he constantly provide us with fantastic remixes, but also produces many gorgeous dirty tracks
- David Guetta - anyone who doesn't like this DJ's music is crazy, David Guetta does the whole spectrum, from dance to techno to electro to house, why wouldn't you enjoy his stuff?
- Axwell - the biggest tune of the year in my opinion was Axwell & Bob Sinclar's "What A Wonderful World" and I cannot stop listening to it, but with many other hits including "I Found U" and "Feel The Vibe", this DJ is purely amazing
6.) In sixth place is Laidback Luke who is without a single doubt in the world the best remixer around, checkout any song big in the club scene at the moment and he'll have remixed it...and beautifully at that
7.) In seventh place is Steve Angello, who let's face it is rarely seen apart from Ingrosso, coming up anytime soon, and I'll be honest I prefer this guy's tracks to his remixes
8.) Next up is Sebastien Ingrosso, who famously expresses anger towards people who spell his name Sebastian, it's with an 'e' damn it
9.) Following Angello and Ingrosso, it can only be the legend of Dirty South, some dirty electro mash-ups of tracks are done by Dirty South, and they never fail to please. Plus, I would rank "The End" and "Let It Go" (both by DS) in my top 10 tracks of the year so far
10.) Finally for this section, it's Bob Sinclar, who has moved on from dance this year. Some classic dance anthems we won't forget include "World Hold On" and "Rock This Party" but his recent house smash with Axwell featuring Ron Carroll with "What A Wonderful World" was house heaven, along with his team up with Fireball for "What I Want" earlier this year
Ranks 11 - 50
Below is a list of my other 40 favourite DJs who didn't make the top 10. Shame. Anyway, next to each one is their best track in my opinion, so if you want a track to download from any artist that's the one I recommend...
11) Deadmau5 - "Fifths"
12) Eric Prydz/Pryda - "Pjanoo"
13) Claude VonStroke - "The Whistler"
14) Fatboy Slim - "Weapon Of Choice"
15) Sebastien Leger - "Hypnotized"
16) Kissy Sell Out - "Stop Me (KSO Remix)"
17) Martin Solveig - "I Want You (LL Remix)"
18) Chemical Brothers - "The Salmon Dance"
