Hey,
the best straight up idm dj i've heard has to be Destro, he played for the
Zod tour...in Philly I went up to him after and told him such - he even
'beat matched' , etc.
I've been spinning since '91 - initially I was deep into hardcore, gabber,
ambient, house, and techno trance ala harthouse, bonzai (check some of this
labels older output!), i dunno, and I loved all the silly rave-ola like eon
"what's in the basket?" "my brother" hahahahahaha
ooohhh, and devil beats....my influences were acid house, electro, and
ac/dc, new order,...that sort of thing...and then I met my Husband and he
was into They Might Be Giants, Elvis Costello and a SLEW of small indy
stuff that was, at times, almost unclassifiable to me at the time...we
raved, we did a night for awhile, I spun, we did a radio and an internet
show for awhile where we played the best of the new music for that week,
and new discoveries...and always lots of weird stuff, like reading the
'weird news of the day' (which we actually got in trouble for doing after
someone 'allegedly' complained about one of the (True) news stories about a
nurse who farted in front of a patient and the visitor...the visitor
remarked to the nurse if she had farted, and the nurse said, yes, would you
like me to fart again? and then she did.
So what does all this odd rambling amount to - a dj that is truly trying
thier best to fullfill thier artistic desires will bring all thier
influences together for a 'set' that matches the vibe of the event, people,
place, time...etc
oh, and yeah, i'll be playing some of that glitchy stuff friday at the
rotunda in philly...and ambient, and oddities, and technoey dubbed, and
stuff that will haunt you...i dunno, it's all still trying to jel, still
working on the flow :)
