Best to download and listen with an iTune Player and its Equalizer sets to “Dance” or “Electronic” together of course with a pair of a stereo headset – a blue tooth (stereo headset) would be splendid as it will free you to dance around and let your spirit soar.
A Happy Holidays to you! May your spirit be bright, light and ready to do some spinning with my remix tune. Strap on your Heels or the Dancing Shoes and let’s have some fun: Enjoy…
Three areas I incorporated into the set:
1) Beginning the set with an exciting and inviting masculine kind of sound to get your heart rate up with 130 to 134 BPM within the first 2 minutes into the set. (I built the BPM up to 136 then subsided to 119 toward the end of the set that you may hardly notice! *smile*
2) Consecutively into the set with a feminine kind of sound such as “Give Me Love … Give me all that you’ve got.”
3) When it comes to Love: Seems like Jalal ad-din Muhammad Rumi’s poem is a perfect fit.
* First read is “The Beauty of the Heart.”
The beauty of the heart is the lasting beauty:
Its lips give to drink of the water of life.
Truly it is the water, that which pours, and the one who drinks.
All three become one when your talisman is shattered.
That oneness you can't know by reasoning.
** Then I read snippets from “With Passion”:
With passion pray.
With passion work.
With passion eat and drink and dance and play.
*** Next read is “The Temple of Love”
The temple of love is not love itself;
True love is the treasure,
….Involve yourself in the essence,
The perfume that invades and touches you-
The beginning and the end.
Time and space are slaves to this presence.
Thank you so much for bringing me smile, laughter, and joy. Please take care of your heart. Remember (that) healthy heart leads to healthy brain. Stay with happy thoughts to keep your heart light. Laugh more and stay happy…. Until next year…

"Invictus" Poem by William Ernest Henley
"Invictus"
OUT of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.
by William Ernest Henley

American Day of Gratitude: Thanksgiving 2009
Here’s a little over 10mins. dancing remix set to express my gratitude on this American auspicious day of Thanksgiving for extending Friendship, Love and Support my way… And now let’s have some fun by putting the dancing shoes on … turning up the volume of an amplifier and Enjoy…
Moreover, by utilizing the Target zone for exercise by American Heart Assoication: http://bit.ly/1LpXAm I maintain approximately 130 BPM (Beat Per Minute) on this music set as this pace seems to be in mid range of an acceptable zone for various age genres.
This is a fun mix set for me to make. Thank you very much for listening. Please keep your heart light and healthy. Stay with happy thought….. Take care.
Note: I opened the set with “Loba (She Wolf)” by Shakira as this is a song that she experimented with Electronica style of music and a heavy bass: http://www.shakira.com/discography/index/album/albumId/21/tagName/Albums in which the worldwide critics gave her thumbs up: http://www.shakira.com/shewolfalbum
And I closed the set with "Evacuate The Dance Floor" by http://www.cascada-music.de/

How Disco Music Can Be a Benefit to Your Heart and A little Nuts&Bolts on How to Remix Songs with Various Beats Per Minute
According to an article based from a research study by University of Illinois College of Medicine researchers in Peoria: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/27221281/.
The Bee Gee’s Song, “Stayin’ Alive” is known to be an optimum humming heart beat rate of 103 BPM (beats per minute) when performing a CPR.
And here it is: My technically medley mix of “Stayin’ Alive” at 103BPM which incrementally increases when the lyrics says “Stayin’Alive” of 1 BPM and reaching 106BPM which is a true BPM to the next song of “More Than A Woman”.
At every 30-35 seconds of “More Than A Woman” I again incrementally increase 1 BPM and reaching a 111 BMP which is its true rate for the next song "Night Fever".
I hope you enjoy the music and a little nuts and bolts on how to increase BPM when remixing songs with various beats per minute.
