[Playlist] SNSNFNGS

[kneeshooter]

If you have a dance floor, and nobody else can clear it, then you need...

Actually I thought it all worked out very nicely, and I delivered a stunning performance to a crowd that seemed to have an average age of about 12. Maybe I am getting old.

Yesterday afternoon I decided that as I was unlikely to get requests, and I want to think about the music and mixing, I would pre-mix a set - so out came Acid Pro and I and turned up with a single 49:30 track on CDR. This also allowed me to pay homage to the Orb, but as I didn't take a chess set instead I played Bounce on my phone while not-mixing. Still, I got to level 3 for the first time.

Anyway - going to set up my first exhibition later, but here's the set-list from yesterday:

• 1000 Homo DJs - Supernaut


• Oomph! - Augen Auf


• Skinny Puppy - Tainted Love


• Front 242 - Headhunter (FLA Mix)


• XPQ-21 - Bela Lugosi's Dead


• Assemblage 23 - I Am The Rain


• Zeromancer - Doctor Online


• PWEI - Ich Bin Ein Auslander (Die Krupps Mix)


• ASP - Ich Will Brennen


• NIN - That's What I Get


• New Model Army - 51st State

For more of the same (or better) come along on November 6th to SNFNGS (Birmingham) and November 9th to Intrusion (Oxford)* where I shall be trying my best to undo all of lupercal's good work.

* Should deeteeuk remember.

Skinny Puppy - Tainted Love

....
Why didn't I know about this?

I don't know...

I quite like it in a offbeat kind of way. lupercal and I have discussed doing entire sets of just Tainted Love remixes but we're still a little short on material.

[duranorak.livejournal.com]

Mrr. You mean covers, presumably? The thought of just Tainted Love remixes gives me The Fear.

I think we'd have to do both remixes and covers - but yes. More coffee needed I think :-)

[duranorak.livejournal.com]

Mkay, so there's the Gloria Jones original. The Soft Cell '81 cover and the '91 remix. Then there's the Marilyn Manson cover, allegedly an Alanis Morissette cover (I have to hear that), there's a techno cover (though I don't know who's responsible), this Skinny Puppy cover I've not heard, the excellent Tycho Brahe version that segues into the Dr Who theme at the end...

What have I forgotten? :)

You know more than me - maybe this might be a go-er after all...

The Techno cover mentioned may well be the Icon one - I have it on cd single somewhere. From the mid-nineties, has happy cheery techno-girl singing. Really quite awful in a really good way.

[arachne.livejournal.com]

Oh, and fairly sure Marilyn Manson did a cover as well.

If he didn't, it's the only song EVER he hasn't covered, and he will soon.

[pauln.livejournal.com]

He has, yes. It's reasonable - if you like Manson's general style of covers.

So THAT's who did that cover of Supernaut I remember hearing years ago in a club!

I so need to replace my tapes of poppies with CDs.

[venta.livejournal.com]

Oooh. My that's not right sense is tingling about the idea of turning up with a pre-mixed single track.

Obviously I've never DJ'd so I know nowt. But it's, well, it's Just Not Right :)

[kneeshooter]

Generally I agree with you.

[venta.livejournal.com]

Thassok, then :)

SNFNGS on the 6th will fail miserably as it clashes with my party so all the cool people will not be at the SNFNGS

nyah :p

You played Supernaut? Fuck you White. FUCK YOU! I'm siding with Ady from now on.

[deeteeuk.livejournal.com]

Obviously, I will forget, as I'm a useless cunt. Remind me.

ps, this does not mean that I've forgotten yet.
