Homegrove I don’t shar everything I record.

Standard. I’d say, at the moment, less than half the mixes I do ever get uploaded anywhere.

    Send us some deets

    Homegrove There’s deep and then there is snoozefest.

    So I’d probably love it then. 😂

    Form an orderly queue please gents:

    Looks like something from a bargain bin in Asda post Christmas

    a month later

    I played a warm up set for Orkidea last Saturday for his Turku-stop on his 30 Years of DJ Orkidea-tour (dude started young, he’s 45). Playing only bars and lounges for a couple of years left me a bit lost at first with a proper big sound, it’s so much fucking louder. 😂

    Checking the recording now for release tomorrow, and I’m surprised how good I did, no trainwrecks, a few dodgy mixes maybe. I also played for the first time with the CDJ 3000s and I don’t recommend just waltzing in when you’re playing with them for the first time. The settings were all over the place after the last DJ, and I had trouble setting them to my liking on the fly.

    Warming up for a trance DJ was fucking fun though as a prog DJ, I could not go too hard. He requested I end with 126 bpm ffs. I used to warm up for him a lot back in the day, and he had requested me again. Got to play 2,5 hours too.

      Requested I end with 126 bpm .

      Proper Blue M&M Moment.

      Homegrove Sounds like a good gig, looking forward to hearing it. I still remember my first time on a loud system, that initial panic of “I wasn’t prepared for this” fades, but it definitely smacks you in the face. That’s why I always like to have my first 3 records planned, just to give me time to settle in.

      I think I still have a white label of unity kicking around, that vocal is probably worth sampling.

        303abuser the priviledge of a warm up set (I pressed play when they opened the doors) I had my first 4 planned. The 4th one was the first real club-track, I started with Satellite Serenade off NE1. Orkidea had also requested all DJs (it was a three room event, I was amazed they let me in the main room) also play mainly their personal classics (like his set was). I cheated and also played a lot of 2022-stuff too. It was fun to dig for stuff I’d not put on any classics-mixes lately though. And also still remember that it was seemingly a warm up set. No worries in the end though, since Orkidea started with some big Prydz-stuff.

        Homegrove He requested I end with 126 bpm ffs.

        Fortunately, Xpander sounds great pitched down to -8 👍

          vinnyt77 I heard from the promoter that somebody in the basement-room was blasting Twilo Thunder 30 minutes after doors open. 😂

            Homegrove fucking well in. 😂. The lad was making a real statement that he wasn’t there to fuck around. 👍🏻

            Homegrove he had requested me again

            Excellent stuff, lovely to hear!

            Homegrove He requested I end with 126 bpm

            I’d be sound with that. Fair request imo.

              Amps Ian Ossia told me a story about a gig he played down in Dorset - c. 2001. He asked the local warm-up guy to try and leave him around 128. The guy banged out a set of 134ish trance for 2 hours. Getting ready to hand over, he stopped the record he was playing, and put on a tribal-ish plodder at 128, turned around, and gave Ian a two thumbs up. 🤣

                vinnyt77 turned around, and gave Ian a two thumbs up.

                Fuckin lol 😆 You’d have to laugh.
