Up until recently, I never really thought of the music I play on Dave's Lounge as "dance music". That changed about a year ago, after I was invited to DJ the back room at a blues dance event, played some downtempo tunes that I've played on the podcast, and watched the floor fill up with couples that seemed eager to dance to what I was playing. That changed my perspective a bit, and a change in perspective is always a good thing.
I started off 2013 by DJing at the Fusion Exchange in Las Vegas. Here's the set I played for them on the first Saturday night of the year. Feel free to dance to this wherever you might be…
