I've been planning a trip to the Bay Area this June and wanted to listen to something that reminds me of my former "home." I got an email advertising Oakland's Eastlake Music Fest and one of the acts featured was this DJ. I remember seeing DJ David Harness at Mighty SF many times when I lived in the Bay and I've always enjoyed his sets. David has been DJing since 1994 with regular nights at Mighty, Club Universe, and more. He's also a producer, creating remixes of tracks from Mary J. Blige, Luther Vandross, Aretha Franklin, Simply Red, Alicia Keys, Floetry, Donnie McClurkin, India Arie, *NSYNC, and Donnell Jones, Ann Nesby, Anane, Barbara Tucker, Inaya Day, Shea Soul, Dawn Tallman, Heidi Vogel, Yoko Ono, Roland Clark as well as remixing for labels Defected, Kings Street, Vega Records, Foliage, Quantize Recordings, Making Moves, Tribe Records, Look At You, Yellorange/Tony Records, Chez, Slaag, Bargrooves. He is a partner in the Moulton Music label and divides his production time between his solo work and co-productions with Harlum Muziq (co-productions with Chris Lum). This one will definitely bring back memories of classic house music, since a lot of it is a tribute to Frankie Knuckles. It works especially well for Memorial Day. Enjoy this almost 4 hour mix!
