What does the term DJ M FUSION style mean.  As a former dancer and choreographer, DJ M constructs his remixes around a strong dance beat reflecting both melody and harmony of the music. This strong dance line runs through the entire set. He adds additional musical elements and sounds to modulate the mood and emotional content of the music, thereby moulding and forming the overall color and feel of the complete set. as it unfolds.  The strong unwavering dance line makes his music very “danceable” to coin a word. Fans of his music know that it is almost impossible to sit still when listening to his music.  Because the primary  focus for DJ M is the dance component, he adds any musical element that creates the right mood and feeling he wants to convey to the dancers, to move them, to have them respond as dancers!  That musical element could be of many possible styles including electro  house, progressive house, deep house, tribal house, trance or any combination of these. Thus, his music is not easily characterized by a particular style of house music.

To use a food metaphor as an illustrative example, the Chef who combines different cuisines to create a new dish may start with a basic French dish, add some Asian spices, some Morrocan ingredients resulting in a glorious melange of tastes, not French, not Asian,  not Morrocan but a fusion of all three that excites the senses unlike any of the individual cuisines might, so called fusion cuisine.  By mixing different elements of house music with the single aim of achieving the right mood and color in dance music, DJ M creates a  FUSION mix that hopefully will urge the dancer to ever greater heights of expression and enjoyment .

At the LINGA BAR, DJ M will present FUSION  house music sets collectively named  “AT HOME WITH HOUSE”.  DJ M: “AT HOME WITH HOUSE” CD  albums will be available in the Bar.

DJ M will return to Siem Reap, Cambodia as Guest DJ for the Linga Bar’s celebrations of Chinese New Year on Saturday February 13, 2010 and Valentine’s Day Party on Sunday February 14, 2010. The Chinese New Year Celebrations will also include a show by the Cambodian troupe, Diamond Paradise. This talented group of local entertainers will add their colorful costumes, effervescent song and dance routines to DJ M’s powerful remixes for an evening of entertainment full of fun, color, excitement, dance and great music in recognition of the commencement of the Year of the Tiger.

DJ M will present an evening of love music to enchant and bewitch all lovers with his eclectic DJ M FUSION remixes of your favorite oldies and his current favorite contemporary love sings.

LOVE ALWAYS, a love music CD, prepared especially for this occasion by DJM and produced by GOG Productions, Bangkok, Thailand in conjunction with The Linga Bar, Siem Reap, Cambodia will be available for purchase as a memento of an evening of love and enchantment woven into a magical musical tapestry by the artistry of DJ M and the ambience of the Linga Bar.

The Linga Bar [www.lingabar.com] is the hot spot in Siem Reap’s Old Market, arguably the coolest part of town today. That area of town is morphing into a sophisticated melange of ultra chic hotels [The One Hotel, Hotel Be Angkor, www.theonehotelcollection.com], galleries and boutiques.

The name Linga refers to carvings of religious significance from the Khmer Empire.  Lingas, phallic cylinders symbolic of the god Shiva were widely used in the Khmer Empire in ritual worship to represent the creative energy, strength and fertility of the god and the power of the divine kings of the Khmer Empire. The Linga  symbolized the king’s power to confer fertility and prosperity to his people and lands.

At the hillside River of a Thousand Lingas, the riverbed has numerous linga sculptures carved into the stone. The Khmer believed that these lingas fertilized Angkor’s fields as the river flowed over the sacred pillars and into the countryside below.

Surviving lingas were carved in polished stone or crystal. Lingas of several different forms survive from the Angkorean period. Some lingas are implanted on a flat square base, termed a yoni that is symbolic of a womb. Mukhalingas have the face of the god Shiva engraved on them.  More complex, segmented lingas portraying a square base symbolizing Brahma, an octagonal middle section representing Vishnu and a round tip symbolic of Shiva.

DJ M has been focussing his attention more on the transition from one song to the next in his recent remixes, in addition to the traditional beat matching used by all DJs, DJ M is more finely merging the rhythms of the 2 songs to generate new and different sounds, increase the complexity of the transition creating a new area of interest for both the dancer and listener.  Patrons at the Linga Bar should concentrate their listening on the transitions between songs, they may be surprized and certainly DJ M would love any feedback.

The titles added are:

Britney Spear – 3 (DJ M Remix)
Daphne Rubin Vega – ROCKETMAN (DJ M Astro Mix)
Cosmic Gate – SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW (DJ M Rave Mix)
Lady Gaga – EH, EH (NOTHING ELSE I CAN SAY) (DJ M Remix)
GetFar- SHINING STAR (DJ M Extended Vocal Mix)
Pussycat Dolls – HUSH HUSH (DJ M Sugarhut Mix)
Lady Gaga -PAPARAZZI(GBA)_(DJMTribalClubAntheM)
