Episode 190: Eastern Standard Time » Strictly Underground House Music

Описание: dattrax: Welcome my Fellow Brothers and Sisters to where house music resides. It's almost the end of 2025. Time is relentless isn't it?






I wish pain wasn't necessary to create beautiful art, but it seems to be the key ingredient.






House music has been an outlet for my negative emotions since I was 14. Whenever I do anything related to house, hunting for tracks that move me, dancing, listening or mixing house. Even talking with friends about house.

Ever have a terrible year full of things happening to you over and over that were negative? That were almost all the result of your poor choices? 






Have you ever sat down and taken inventory on the things you've gone through? 






I'm already writing a novel here, but/however, just want to share one observation. Hopefully this good fortune cookie can help you with a better 2026.

Perspective is Everything. 


We control the direction of the movement of our subconscious, or to put it in another way, it’s our reaction to any given person or circumstance that is important, not the person or circumstance itself. 






If we view a situation as negative or positive, then our mind will obey that direction we give it and find ways to prove us right.

It’s crazy that we can be in a great mood and then one piece of news makes us angry or extremely negative, or the opposite where we’re in a terrible mood, then one thing happens and we’re super happy. 






Why is that? What changed? The news or circumstance that was introduced? Or was it the negative or positive value we attached to the new info?

We have to learn how to reframe any situation into a perspective that is beneficial to us.

For Example: A joke I heard in my early 20’s that really affected my outlook...






There’s a joke about two boys with completely different personalities. One boy was always negative, entitled and never happy. The other boy was always positive and optimistic.






One Christmas, the ill-mannered boy was given a room full of wonderful presents. He proceeded to complain about each one as he opened them. A mountain of gifts and he just couldn’t see any good in his situation.



The other boy got a giant pile of horse shit in his room and all his possessions were removed.



What did he do? He happily played in the pile of horse shit. 






When asked why he was so happy? He joyfully replied: “With a pile of horse shit this big, there’s got to be a pony hiding in here somewhere!!!!!!!!!!”






Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your loved ones. This is probably the last mix that I'll be posting in a few weeks in January 2026. 






Thank you for listening to this mix. 






May God Bless You and All Who You Love Abundantly 💜💜💜💜💜💜❤️






Cheers
