Part of the setlist for a set I played in Cambridge at an IDM night
recently:
boards of canada - oscar see through red eye // the campfire headphase // warp
bjork - all is full of love (funkstorung rmx) // fatcat compilation
radiohead - everything in its right place // kid a // emi
(with boards of canada - nlogax // hi scores ep // skam,
kraftwerk - radioactivity // the mix // emi,
new order - blue monday // substance // emi)
new order - blue monday // substance // emi
ulrich schnauss - on my own // a strangely isolated place // cco
I got cheered when both the Radiohead and New Order tracks dropped
(the Radiohead thing is a bit of simple Live live remixing, but it
sounds quite nice...), which surprised me a bit (in a good way) -
because I thought I was being a bit cheeky playing those to that crowd.
I reckon you can get away with murder, really, as long as you can
dance to it and it's not *too* far from the expectations of your
audience.
