is quite nice. ofcourse a lot of you people are djing so you know how it is :)
the first time i was playing stuff i like and obviously no one was into that..im thinking people into that sort of stuff don't go out much. and well, i decided to play something more dance oriented but still quality stuff and people actually liked it. they even wanted me to continue but the club closes at 4am so i had to stop..i must say i really enjoyed it :)
oh, and i saw trevor dunn's trio just before i started djing and they were brilliant! i didn't expect them to be so good especially considering their age..it was quality!

right. i didn't even know trevor plays a classic bass :) so that was just a bonus. i sort of expected them to sound more rockish..i was listening to their record but i guess i wasn't paying that much attention or something..they improvise quite a bit though, so that may also had something to do with it. i definitely prefer to hear this music live than recorded.
once you get girls to dance guys join too..apperantly they're too shy to do it on their own or sumthin..

snares is a master making people dance
if by dance we mean: let the music rape you

well, you must see aphex then..if you won't change your mind then i'll cut my arm off. snares is mental but he exhausts people too quickly and his music isn't that difficult to mix..aphex on the other hand is a master of djing and he gets people on peak at the most convenient moment.

haha, no..i don't think people are quite ready for that yet. i played autechre about 3 weeks and no one was dancing to it :)
but i was surprised last night..i played some harseher stuff and they still enjoyed it. i got this feeling i could even play a vsnares track and they'd still enjoy it..

ive got a dodgy slot tonight. not sure what im supposed to be doing but im planning for a chill-out set. and if thats not the right kind of thing ill be stumped cause if I just did the whole thing on the fly I will suck. And also it will be a push to make 2hrs with how little of the right kind of music i have available.

hmm, i suck at mixing ofcourse but i don't think people mind that, they just want music to get wild to. i was doing a chill out sort of thing before but no one was into that..though it depends what sort of club are you playing in i suppose. it's really hard to pick the right stuff..i just bring a lot of music and see how it goes..it worked last night :)
