One Dance by Justin Bieber and Drake
One Dance by Justin Bieber and Drake is fi-ya! Wow, I love this version so MUCH! Justin is on top of the pop world right now. The original was already good, but JB adds a little more pop into the remix — and his vocals have never sounded better! I’m sure Drake fans will insist the original is better, but this has way more mainstream application (IMHO). Snippet is here. #musicmonday
DJ Brian B June 2016 Schedule
The DJ Brian B June 2016 schedule is officially inked.
In between some fantastic weddings, I typically use the summer months to network and refocus for the 2nd half of the way. Going the Engage Conference is always a highlight of my year (I’m a 2 baller this year!). This is the best of the best in the wedding industry and not only do I get to reconnect with some fantastic industry folks, but I know I’ll have some fantastic takeaways. This will be my first time to the Arms DJ Conference. I’m looking forward to this mid-america conference. Hope to see you on a stop soon!
DJ Brian B Winter Mix 2016
The DJ Brian B Winter Mix 2016 is officially live! I took a much different approach to this mix as far as the track selection. I went with more of a “listening” type vibe. Don’t get me wrong, it’ll still rock a house party but I wanted to include some tracks that were more laid back and I ended up the mix the way it starts ~ with a little slower of a tempo than with a club banger. Lots of mashups, remixes and the signature DJ Brian B Official mix style you’ve come to expect from me with 22 tracks packed into 36 minutes! Let me know what what you think and feel free to share. Much love and thanks for the support!
Something New by Zendaya feat. Chris Brown
The throwback sample from TLC’s Creep gives Something New by Zendaya feat. Chris Brown a recognizable sound. I’m expecting some killer mashups and remixes with this particular single. Be ready for it to get blown up on Top 40 and Urban radio. Enjoy my #musicmonday pick this week.
Work by Rihanna feat. Drake
For this week’s #musicmonday pick, I’m going with Work by Rihanna feat. Drake. This track isn’t a club banger necessarily, but it does have a good beat and catchy hook. Reminds me of last week’s pick. I’m hoping the R&B genre isn’t slowing down in tempo beyond this. At 92 beats per minute, I still can work this in regularly to my sets. With the firepower of Rihanna and Drake, I’m sure this track will be around all Spring.
Hands To Myself by Selena Gomez
It’s February 1st! Starting off this month’s Music Monday with a track I’m loving right now – Hands To Myself by Selena Gomez. I wasn’t a Selena fan until this album. This track just follows the trend of her other singles released recently. This will get heavy airplay. It’s a tricky one to mix due to the tempo and vibe but trust me, I’ll find a way to do it. Hope you enjoy this one!
Fast Car by Tobtok feat. River
Euro pop plus a 90s remake equals today’s Music Monday pick – Fast Car by Tobtok feat River. There’s another remake that is making the rounds right now by Jonas Blue. I like this one by Tobktok better because it stays a little more true to the original. This artist is from Sweden and is the first track I’ve ever heard of from him. I’m looking forward to hearing more. Tracy Chapman should be proud of this tribute!
Sorry (EZY Lima Remix) – Tayler Buono
Today’s music Monday pick today is this amazing Justin Bieber cover of Sorry by Tayler Buono. The EZY Lima Remix really sets this off. It’s got an electronic vibe but stays true to the original. The female vocal is money. Enjoy!
Adventure Of A Lifetime (DJ Spider Remix) – Coldplay
First Music Monday pick of 2016. This remix by DJ Spider of Adventure of a Lifetime by Coldplay is fantastic. The original is already amazing and funky but this takes it to another level. I haven’t heard a DJ Spider remix in some time so glad to have him back on the remix scene. This is going to be a staple in my sets for a bit. What do you think?

Seaside Wedding with Alex and Steven
Favorite Events for 2015: #1 (tie) – This Seaside wedding shouldn’t have been a surprise but it really was! You see, when you have a fantastic vendor team (shout-outs to It’s A Shore Thing, Florals By The Sea, and Dear Wesleyann Photography), an amazing couple and a crowd that wants to celebrate them, you should expect magic. I had a sense that it would be a “good” event based on the vibe I got from the bride and groom when we did our planning call, but when the entire crowd started dancing during cocktail hour, I knew I was in for a “great” night. It was such a fantastic wedding and this Dallas-based crowd threw down! Congrats Alex and Steven! Wish you both nothing but the best. Photo cred: dear wesleyann.
