This is a somewhat funny story -
a week or two ago I was spinning one of the mega rave-type clubs here in
DC. My pretty standard fare: techno into tech house into house. Fun dark
groovy stuff.
Well whatever, I was playing for a bunch of e-crazy morons who just wanted
to hear pumping tracks and I'm sorry, but I offer music with a little more
depth. So I was somewhat dissapointed at the response (or lack thereof)
and around 5.30 my friend tells me I'm the only DJ left spinning that
night.
So I figure it was time to finish up and dropped that last track on the
BoC "hi scores" EP - really kinda floaty and slow. The track did something
for me and I was wanting to spin some more so next up was one of those
cheeky pop sounding tunes by bochum welt. After that one of the guys
working the club told me to pack it up...
BUT - during one of the last tracks some dude comes over to me and starts
telling me how great he thought my set was. pauses and asks, "did you
listen to skinny puppy"
'course that comment totally caught me off guard and then I smiled
and said yeah. my theory is that he must have been on some strong acid to
dig that I like SP out of my set.
Afterwards some other girl came up to me and gushed about my last few
tracks. hehe
And thus I've decided to spin no more techno and stick pretty much to
deephouse and all this nonsense we talk about here. :)
