Fellas, Tomorrow I am DJing at a magazine launch, who have asked me to do a strict ambient and jazz set. Here are my choices so far: Ambient: Stars of the Lid - And their refienment of the decline Brian Eno - Discreet Music + Music for Airports + Music for films Aphex Twin - S.A.W. 85-92 + S.A.W. 2 Colleen - The golden morning breaks + Everyone alive wants answers A few odd bits from BOC, Christ, Squarepusher, Autechre etc. Jazz Dizzy Gellespie - Have trumpet, will excite Miles Davis - Kind of Blue + Water Babies Twin Peaks OST Thelonious Monk - Straight, no chaser Jack Kerouac - Piano and Poem Pieces PLEASE TELL ME MORE STUFF. I feel dangerously low on records... |

kind of a weird blend of music you got going there... all good stuff but it just seems like it would be strange for a magazine launch... some ambient recommendations (pretty much my two favorite ambient albums): Steve Roach- Midnight Moon Tomas Koner- Teimo/Permafrost Koner might be a little too dark overall, but the tracks "Teimo" and "Serac" might work ok.. Brian Eno- Ambient 4 (on land) is also terrific ambience, as is the album Apollo Atmospheres and Soundtracks let us know how the set turns out ;p |

there is no force in magic, this is pretty straightforward, even the techno people have heard that. |

Got those Enos, but I wanted to have it as wide ranging as possible. Will get some more Jazz essentials and will check out those Ambient choices. Thanks guys, keep them coming. |

is that really the best you can do before resorting to asking here? |

djing jazz is just pointless, sorry to say. |

Well i thought so, too. But they were keen for me to do it. Horsefactory: Its only a start, like. Plus I don't know how long they want me to play for, to be honest. |

laid back jazz where you can play to anyone and they'll appreciate it is. Ahmad Jamal at the Pershing:But Not for Me i used it as walkin music for many gigs although there is one hard tune on there. so if you get stuck and not to sure of what the audience wants whack that on and layer some ambient over it in the back ground. |

Jazz related: Chicago Underground Isotope 217 Tortoise Exploding Star Orchestra Robert Mazurek The Bad Plus Some of that should have enough of an ambient reference to blend in. Also, go on itunes though and check out some of the modern jazz collections they have. |

If they are paying you ahead of time, play whatever you want. |
