My first vinyl record? Roxette (1990). And my very first music cassette was by Michael Jackson (1988), which I bought in Adana, Turkey. Back then, that store only sold Turkish artists - except for one international name: Michael Jackson. If you, like me, grew up in the ‘80s, then you’ll understand just how massive his popularity truly was. Over the past few weeks, I’ve been on a mission to collect every official Michael Jackson CD and song available. From that collection, I’ve handpicked some of his most underrated and beautiful tracks for this set. I debated including the final track - it’s a bit different and the transition isn't perfect - but I couldn’t leave it out. It's a powerful piece and gives a taste of a possible second MJ set I plan to share in the future. As a music lover and DJ, I recognize the artistic brilliance and cultural impact of his work. At the same time, however, I want to acknowledge the deeply troubling and painful allegations associated with him. Celebrating the music while recognizing the possible harm caused by the artist is an uncomfortable and complex task. This set is not about excusing or ignoring the serious accusations. Rather, it’s my way of exploring and sharing my own conflicted relationship with his music. --- This is not mixing! Some DJs keep commenting “where is the mixing?” under my YouTube sets. But not every episode is meant for the club or a dancefloor crowd. When I share music online, it’s less about flashy blends and more about storytelling through sound and lyrics. For me, the magic is in the selection, the sequence, and the way one track emotionally leads into the next: like chapters in a concept album. Smooth mood transitions, occasional sharp pivots, lyrical progression, rising tension, soft landings… And most importantly: most songs are perfect as they are. Why cut them short when every second is delicious! I love letting tracks breathe, unfold, and shine. --- DVS (Digital Vinyl System) Unfortunately, not all of these songs exist on vinyl. That's why I used DVS, because I own all of his CDs and I converted them to the highest possible quality to play my set for you. Enjoy! DVS is a DJ technology that allows you to control digital music files on your computer / smartphone using traditional turntables with special timecode vinyl. It combines the tactile feel of analog DJing with the flexibility of digital music libraries. --- deep cuts A "deep cut" is a lesser known piece of music that presents one or more of the following traits: 1. it has never been played live or gets performed rarely 2. it is not frequently heard on the radio because it is not a hit and, as a result, doesn’t fit within most of the ordinary and commercially appealing playlists 3. it is known almost exclusively by the truest and most devoted fans of a given artist or band 4. the label “deep cut” can be assigned to any of the album tracks that have not been published as a single 5. it is considered as a particularly brilliant song that most of a band’s ordinary fans are generally unaware of 6. it is a track buried in the huge catalogue of an artist with a long career 7. it may be any of an artist’s older songs that is not played live or broadcast as frequently as it was before (source: https://www.uncoveringsound.com/deep-...) --- Chapters 00:00 Chicago (Original Version) 04:42 I Can't Help It 08:59 Someone Put Your Hand Out 14:18 The Way You Love Me (Original Version) 18:41 In The Back 23:07 P.Y.T.
