Mike Bolante's Mixes
From classical piano and iconic 80s beats to the heart of Chicago's house scene, Mike Bolante's musical journey is one of relentless passion and evolution. He cut his teeth DJing local parties, then dove headfirst into production alongside NYC's Ray Roc, managing the legendary ROCit Records. But it was in Chicago, the birthplace of house, where Mike truly found his groove. Six years immersed in the scene, collaborating with local legends and soaking up the sounds of Spy Bar, shaped his distinct sound – a fusion of Chicago house, techno, and tech house. Today, Mike is a respected artist agent and manager, music and event producer, and entertainment business consultant.

SUMMER 2024 - VOLUME 1 - SIDE A - HOUSE CLASSICS
These are some favorites I dug up from yesteryears. Some of them, I have forgotten, some of them are favorites that I drop in my sets currently.
SUMMER 2024 - VOLUME 1 - SIDE B - DANCE
Side B shows my fascination for current dance music. It's amazing how a lot of new music have been influenced by old hits, genres and even classical music. We have definitely come a long way.

AMAPIANO BEATS
AMAPIANO (which means "THE PIANOs" in Zulu) Amapiano is a subgenre of house music that emerged in South Africa in the mid 2010s. It is a hybrid of deep house, jazz and lounge music characterized by synths and wide percussive basslines.
Got fixated to this as of late as I have been listening to Dave Nunes (check him out I swear... you can never go wrong.) a lot. A good way to kick back and relax.
POBLACION SESSIONS VOL. 2
After more than a decade and a half of doing this. I know how to read the crowd much more the ones in Poblacion. So I base it on what is the venue’s programming and the crowd I have in front of me. My first love is house but clearly I have evolved from then and can now even play open format proudly. So I try to mix it up without compromising what the venue wants. Poblacion is the epitome of divers
POBLACION SESSIONS VOL. 1
Recently, people have asked me what I have been playing as of late in Poblacion. It's an ecclectic mix of genres both underground and mainstream. Never really put myself in a box and just play what I feel like and watch the crowd. Poblacion, along with Chicago and LA are the places I love djing in. Just absolutely fantastic! Here is the first of this series of mixes I will be putting out about thi
Club Classics
For the past 2 decades, dance music has been the Soundtrack of my Life. My memories of clubbing has been in every facet of it.... As a patron... a DJ... a Promoter... a club manager... and some of my most memorable experiences are in it. Here are a few of favorites to play and listen to. I know most people of my generation will agree these were very very very memorable years!
Music - And - Dance - Places - Poblacion SIDE B
Here is Side B. Eclectic and sophisticated just like Poblacion. Just like our Facebook Group, playing these tracks made me pretend I was in Z Street just getting lost in the people and the music. Much Love my peeps! Side B for you!
Music - And - Dance - Places - Poblacion SIDE A
Been fortunate to have gone to so many places to listen to music, dance and be merry. So I am creating a new series of my favorite places to go and make some sort of a soundtrack to it.... Not just one but two! SIDE A and SIDE B. Side A being the old school and Side B is me keeping up with the Joneses!
First up is Poblacion. I love this place. It is a newer version of what used to be in Malate. I
Beach Anthems: Trance and Progressive
Beach Anthems back in the late 90s and the early 2000s. So many memories. That was fun. These songs brought so much of those memories back. So vivid were these memories, that each song made me smile and remember!
If you were a child of the 90s, you would love these songs I mixed and most likely reminisce! Happy listening!

The Lockdown Series Not Just Another Disco Mix
Another request for Disco. I was fortunate to grow up in a household filled with music. I was able to listen to a number genres including Disco. It's no secret that I drop disco tracks here and there in my sets. Well here's another one with full on disco but the difference is I got to end it with OPM tracks from The Boyfriends, VST and Hotdog. These people paved the way for the artists of today. I
The Lockdown Series Vol. 8 Dance Classics and Friendship
Nothing like being in your 20s, carefree, having fun. This was also the time I discovered clubbing. Although I loved music and knew about djing but it wasn’t a passion as it is now.
Clubbing was just so much fun… It was fun because of friends. All the parties, the laughter, the embarassment… I can truly say it was what made it worthwhile… making all those memories…
This is for all my friends bac
The Lockdown Series Vol. 7 Garage
It's been awhile since I came out with a mix. Here's a new one with a genre that is niche but catchy. I am a big fan of the Artful Dodger and this is where I learned about Garage, specifically UK Garage. It became so big that the music influenced dance music in the US and even some House music releases. I love listening to these catchy and bouncy tunes. I hope you enjoy the music as much as I enjo

The Lockdown Series Vol.5 Disco
I have done this before... a mix that features all disco. Maybe not as obscure as Scott K. but disco nonetheless. Gotta thank him for my influences in disco when I was in the States. Loving it as always. Locally, gotta go with Manong Boyet Sison.... but mostly, it was when I was younger with my parents having all these records and a turntable. Disco will always be close to my heart. Will always b
The Lockdown Series Vol. 4 90's R&B and Hip-Hop
The 90's were an awesome time for me. It was carefree. Before House, Techno and Trance, this is what was popular back then. Had great memories back then. I could remember back then these songs were playing in our cars. Some of us even have subs and would put it on blast. It's funny when I think about it, it seems like all we did were in a music video with each and every track.... each of them have
The Lockdown Series Vol. 3 A Soundtrack for Missy
It's Day 275. It's that time of the month where I celebrate being with Missy. Some people may call it cheesy but for us both, and others who are on the same boat, we celebrate these milestones as it helps us appreciate the things we often forget.... especially as time goes on.
I try to relish every moment, as our lives are at midstream. I try to live it to the fullest with Missy as every minute,
The Lockdown Series Vol. 2
Weeks into this quarantine gave me a lot of time to reminisce about the old days. Growing up in the 80's and the 90's was a lot of fun. We didn't have the technology we had back then to keep us preoccupied, we had friends... we had each other. With that, we had a soundtrack.
All the songs you will here on this mix represents that... the emotions, the humor, the experience of it all... When you l
The Lockdown Series Vol. 1
Made this mix with all the free time we have. The songs here are from current indie tracks to house to R&B and ending it with a classic for everyone. People always ask me what kind of DJ I am, I just say I am a DJ. I pretty much can DJ anything. Yes, just like everyone I have my preferences but I do play what songs I feel like playing and it's pretty much across the board. After many years of play

90's House Music Vol. 3
Thanks you to all those who listened to the first two volumes. I truly enjoy making these things as it brings back great memories of how we use to party back in the day. Great music, the club and friends, how can you go wrong. I am also glad to see millennials are appreciating these old collections.
I will be changing it up for the next one but in the meantime, enjoy this one! Much love! PEACE!
90's House Music Vol.2
As an active DJ, there are perks to being this age. One of them is being able to appreciate all the music that you have gone through the years. There is so much great music out there from our generation that I can come up with multiple venues. You got to admire the creativity and experiences of the producers during that era. Despite the limitations on technology, they come up with these HOUSE CLAS

90's House Music Vol. 1
I can feel fortunate that I grew up spending my teenage and college years in the 90's. It was a great time to be a carefree and be with friends. The music was great and honestly, we listened to music as if it were the soundtrack to our lives. Back then, I didn't know what HOUSE was and all I knew that when this played, it was something I loved listening to. Thank God for that move to Chicago but t
