Season’s Greetings from Burning the Ground!

Season’s Greetings! The most wonderful time of the year is here, and I couldn’t let the season pass without sending warm wishes to all of you who make this community so special.

Christmas and Hanukkah are about family, friends, and cherished traditions, and for us, it’s also about celebrating the music that brings us together. From festive classics to remixes that get everyone dancing, this season is the perfect time to spin your favorite records and let the holiday spirit take over.

Whether you’re gathered around the tree, lighting the menorah, enjoying a cozy night by the fire, or hosting a holiday party, let the music set the perfect mood. And don’t forget to sprinkle in some of your favorite 12” mixes to keep things fresh and exciting.

Thank you for being part of the Burning the Ground family this year. Here’s to a joyous Christmas, a Happy Hanukkah, and a wonderful New Year filled with love, laughter, and great tunes.

I’ll be taking a short break for the holidays but will return after the first of the year with a new post. Until then, enjoy the season and keep the music alive.

Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah, everyone!

Happy Thanksgiving from Burning the Ground!

To all my readers in the United States, I wish you a day filled with gratitude, delicious food, and the warmth of loved ones. Thanksgiving is a time to reflect on life’s blessings, and I want to take a moment to thank you for being a part of the Burning the Ground community. Your enthusiasm and support help keep the magic of 80s and 90s remixes alive!

For those outside the U.S., this is still a perfect opportunity to express my appreciation. Wherever you’re tuning in from, I’m grateful for the connections we’ve built through music. While you may not be celebrating Thanksgiving, consider this a heartfelt thank-you for being part of this nostalgic journey.

Let’s keep the records spinning, the memories flowing, and the music alive! Wishing everyone a wonderful holiday season ahead, no matter where you are. I will be spending the next few days with my family and will return on Tuesday, December 3.

With gratitude,
Paul 🎶

Hi BTG Family,

I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to each and every one of you who contributed to our recent fundraising campaign. We reached our goal of $2,000, and it’s all thanks to your incredible generosity!

Help Keep BTG Thriving: Crucial Fundraiser

Hello, BTG community,

October is here, and it’s time for our second fundraiser of 2024!  For those new to BTG, we hold a fundraiser every six months to maintain our Burning The Ground PayPal account. These funds support site hosting, security, monitoring, protection, requested records, and equipment maintenance.

Why This Fundraiser Is Crucial:

This fundraiser is crucial to keep BTG thriving. I recently received an email from our hosting service informing us that they are updating CPU and storage limits to enhance website performance. As a result, BTG will be moved to a higher-priced tier, increasing our hosting costs from $295.50 to $422.14 every two years. Additionally, we pay $200 annually for website security and firewall protection through Sucuri.

Due to these rising expenses, I’ve raised our fundraising goal from $1,500 to $2,000, which I believe we can achieve together. With the renewal date approaching on November 1,

How You Can Help:

Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a difference. You can help by visiting our Donation page on PayPal or by clicking one of the yellow donate buttons throughout the site. Donations can be made securely using your debit card, credit card, or PayPal account.

Your support is invaluable and ensures that BTG continues to thrive. Thank you for being a part of our community!
