And now for even more fun : how to organize the "perfect idm party" : 1 - Team up with one of your friend, unless you want to spin all night, bring 100 records, and not drink too much ( although I know people whom mixing/beatmatching skills get better when they can't walk straight :). Have one with your usual Warp/Skam/Musik Aus Strom/Schematic/etc... ( aka me ) and the other with the Brinkmann/Voigt/etc .. ( aka David ). 2 - Start with tracks for head-nodding while people arrive, start to drink, talk to each other. After some time, people will want to dance ( unless you have a hardcore-idm crowd, better have much beer if this is the case ;), so move on with some electro-ish stuff and build from there to get at some point where it'll be easy for your friend to mix in ( unless you like to finish your set with some unmixable/out-of-nowhere track, like some other guy on this list like to do :) 3 - Hit them with that Koln minimal thing... This has been tested a few times and seems to be working quite right and it even gets better each time.
