Just bought For an Angel, by Paul van Dyk; Sandstorm, by Darude; and Close Cover, by Minimalistix, off Ebay.
W00t. Can’t wait for them to arrive.

I warmed the house with hard beautiful trance for 2 hours. It’s interesting for me to see how huge the difference is in my confidence level, when dj-ing at Youth, compared to dj-ing at home or with friends. Last night went almost flawlessly; I had so much fun, and was able to dance around and chat and eat while doing it. At Youth I’m working the whole time to make it work, and get stressed, and don’t start enjoying myself for like 15 minutes, if I do really enjoy myself at all.
So call me the Doubting DJ. I’m already getting nervous about spinning at the Zeo on October 30th, but I guess a night like last night shows me that I do actually have the ability to mix, and can now do it fairly well. Maybe Mark can share some insight from his early days.
Oh, and Maija brought a bunch of friends from her new job, and one of them was big into clubs and had “hookups” and he really liked the stuff I was playing. Which is encouraging, as most of the people at Youth have never been to a real rave, or even club, or if they have, they don’t talk to me about it.
So it was a good evening. I had fun. I love fun.
After much deliberation, I’ve decided that Maija and I shan’t go home to New Zealand in January. We’ll plan for around August/September instead, which will be much cheaper, and with the extra time for saving will allow us to do more fun stuff there.
And I’m really not that impressed with the Parachute artist line up. Sorries to Rochelle, cause it would have been mad fun to hang out with you back in the old country. But ahh well.
So this takes a little financial pressure off me. It also frees me up to be able to buy some more records and equipment, without feeling like I was jeopardizing my trip home.
Just rubbed some on from a mail-out sample. I quite like it. Anyone fancying buying me some, it’s available from Sears. Or collect me lots of mail out samples. Hehe.
In other news, I’m working on my first major mix. I’m playing with a really ambient chillaxed kinda sound, which I reckon could be wicked to soak to. For those in the know, tracks like:
Believe by The Traveller & In Motion
Turning Point by Kava
Drum and Faith by Dr Siminz
Should be fun.
In case you haven’t heard about this already, big ups to Jeremy Wright for all the hubub and news he’s receiving on the sale of Ensight.org
Here’s a cool article from the news. I’m really happy for you Jeremy.
Desire that I explain taste to him of the good messages of the Christian of the Jesus.
“I want tell you the good news of Jesus Christ.”
During the hundreds years… He splodges some!
“For one hundred years… Machines!”
Not seriously, with the l’accampamento of the volume.
“One time, at band camp.”
