LAST NIGHT A DJ SAVED MY LIFE

OK, SO AS MOST OF YOU THAT KNOW ME KNOW (IN THE WORDS OF SHARMADEAN) I AM THE MOST "FRUSTRATED DJ IN THE WORLD" EVER SINCE I CAN REMEMBER I HAVE BEEN MAKING COMPILATIONS, WHETHER THEY ARE JUST FOR ME, BIRTHDAY PRESENTS, THE OFFICE, XMAS PARTIES, FRIENDS BBQ'S, WEDDINGS I HAVE EVEN MADE ONE FOR A FUNERAL!! ANY EXCUSE REALLY, I JUST LOVE PUTTING MIXES TOGETHER.

WHEN IT COMES TO MUSIC I DO TEND TO BE A CONTROL FREAK!!! I AM ALWAYS THE ONE GUARDING THE STEREO,LAPTOP OR WHATEVER IT IS PLAYING THE MUSIC.
SO ALL THE PARTIES THAT I HAVE ORGANISED HAVE HAD THE BADDEST TUNES PLAYIN'
THE "CHECKINIT" SHOP ON GREEK ST - SOHO
TAPESTRY GALLERY - DEAN ST, SOHO
THE SOHO LOUNGE - DEAN ST, SOHO
MASH - GREAT PORTLAND ST, W1
SKETCH - CONDUIT ST, W1
BUNGALOW8 - ST MARTINS LANE, W1
BLINK GALLERY - POLAND ST SOHO






















A FEW MONTHS AGO SHARMA WAS FEELING MY FRUSTARTION AND ASKED ME TO PLAY TUNES AT THE WAH POWERLUNCH AT THE ICA!!! WHICH WAS ACE!!! BUT SINCE THEN I HAVE NOT PLAYED ANY MUSIC OTHER THAN IN MY FLAT. THE REASON BEING I ACTUALLY DO NOT LIKE THE IDEA OF BEING A DJ (ESPECAILLY NOT NOW, AS EVERYONE WITH AN 2 ARMS IS A DJ) I JUST LIKE PEOPLE LISTENING TO THE MUSIC I WANT TO PLAY. SO I AM TOTALLY FEELING DAFT PUNKS MASK IDEA!!!

ANYWAYS

A FEW MONTHS AGO I WAS TAUGHT BY THE MAIN MAN DJ OUZO HOW TO USE ABLETON, AND SINCE I HAVE BEEN PRACTISING MY TECHNIQUE!! I HAVE PUT TOGETHER SOME BANGIN' MIXES!!! I WAS SO IMPRESSED WITH MYSELF THAT I SENT IT OUT TO A FEW OF MY SELECT FRIENDS.
JUST SO I COULD GET THEIR OPINION OF MY NEWLY LEARNT SKILL, THANKFULLY I GOT THE THUMBS UP!!! WHICH WAS ACE!!!

AND TO MY SURPRISE THIS MORNING I RECIEVED AN EMAIL ASKING WHETHER I WOULD DJ AT THE NYE PARTY ON KOH PHANGNAN BEACH, THAILAND. FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT DO NOT KNOW THIS IS THE ULTIMATE NYE PARTY!!!


"Haad Rin is home to the Full Moon Party and also houses about 3-5000 rather mad people; it is the island's nightlife capital and has Koh Phangan's biggest concentration of beach clubs that collectively put on the ultimate travellers get together. There are over 12 major sound systems running the length of Had Rin beach, catering for 8000 to 12,000 punters in low season, 15,000 to 20,000 in high season and up to 30,000 at New Year. Within this transient crowd of party animals some highly talented DJ's pass through, banging out their wares to the raging lunar explorers that have landed on planet party"

SOUNDS PRETTY HECTIK HEY!!!! WELL I AM SURE IT WILL BEAT A NYE WITH JOOLS HOLLAND IN THE COLD!!! BEACH, BASS AND BOUNCING!!!

I'VE CHOOSE MY NEON 2 PIECE, I HAVE MY WHISTLE AT THE READY AND TUNES ARE ALREADY JUMPING OUTTA MY SPEAKERS!!!
JUST HAVE TO WAIT FOR MY FLIGHT NOW, ONLY 38 HOURS TO GO!!!! NOT THAT I'M COUNTING OR ANYTHING :)
