Track List
So here is another one of my older mixes, I liked how this came out, even thou I did mostly use x-mix versions of the songs but meh, I did this back in 2006 with a lot of the tracks I was spinning at the time and it came out nice so thats all that matters. It is a laid back mix so there is nothing overly technical happening during it, did that on purpose so not to be too distracting. Anyways, here it is plus the track list, enjoy!
Ok so it has been a busy last few months, 3 trips overseas, various gigs as well as my usual ones so here is a quick recap of what I have been doing these last few months
June
Well June was a interesting month, I got to do some pretty cool things and also finished my 12 week challenge, 10kg lighter and back up to maybe 75% on the touch field
– Spent my birthday and long weekend running around Japan buying as much stuff as I could! Harajuku for clothes and Akihabara for my anime obsession
– Next weekend was UMF which I got to jam out in the redbull party jeep, pretty cool that I got to go to UMF, wasn’t the greatest of festivals but it is def one of the biggest in Korea and around the world… just a shame the line up was mud
– Spun at venue, nothing but old skool and a bit of a MJ tribute. Also it was a great crowd for early on so made the night even better
Well that was June, short but eventful.
July
July proved to be less busy, was back at venue again but the night ended up being a dud unfortunately. The main thing for July was taking on a new residence at King Club, however that ended up being short lived. Scroll to the bottom for that story…
– I spent most of the time working on my BeFM set.
– I did take a trip to Taipei which was a lot of fun
– Met with Blossom Day which was a kick start to working with JC
– TBT at Venue with Pinnacle and Rich Ben, pitty it was a dud of a night
And that was July
August was a good month
– 2nd Place at BeFM with a trip down to Busan, rocking it out on Gwangali
– Went to WDJ Festival with DJ Korea, jamming in the tent again, but to less fanfare than last year
– Started to do some proper work with JC, exciting times ahead working with her, but did have a fun night out at Bar Fly
– Started on some other projects including learning to produce music
And some other random things I got up to in August…
Went to the One Piece expo in Seoul, it was cool, mostly based around the Marine Ford Arc which was of course total epicness! (Full review in another post)
Went to my first Baseball game in Korea
And that was August, simple but fun, Sept is halfway done but it is also turning out to be another great month, it’s already coming into Autumn and the end of the year is rapidly approaching… again…
So here goes with the King Club story
My hours at bar fly changed to the late shift, so it opened up a time for me to play somewhere else, I was going to look at a second residency after summer since I am usually busy during summer but King Club offered so I thought why not, they are under new ownership and have a new direction that wanted to go in so at first I was excited about working there, because honestly I never liked the place at all or the people that use to frequent it but the hope that it would change and the possibility of the place had me in… But as I began working there it was quickly apparent that any change was going to be slow if at all. The American soldiers still frequented the place, and they bring their own brand of bullshit with them (for the 4 weeks I was there, there was at least 1 fight each weekend…) as well as wanting to hear all the new shit that you can’t dance too. The music they (the boss etc) wanted me to play wasn’t the kind of music the crowd they want to attract want to hear (I even had the bouncer? stop me at the door and start going on about some shit with the music, I just gave him the yeah whatever, like I’m going to listen to you look and walked on by, I listen to the crowd and the boss, not you) and it was just becoming apparent that the direction they wanted to go in was pretty blurry. Also at Bar Fly, the boss asked me to switch back to my old time, so since they come first, had to talk to king club and see if could switch up the schedule, the problem is all of the DJs there have a second residency that is more important to them than king club so none of them can change, which was fine with me, I was the late comer to the party and also working there was really starting to become an annoyance rather than fun, not to say I didn’t have some fun there thou! The place has a lot of potential, always has, and has some good people working there but as is always the way, direction needs to be decisive, not blurry… and changing styles up between the military and Korean/expat scene… seriously there is a reason why I hate Itaewon and even more so hate those young American soldiers and all their bullshit. I avoid the place like the plague
So, here is the next video I decided to upload, continuing on my uploading of my videos here rather than Vimeo and Youtube, thou it appears my Vimeo block has been removed… least for now… but it seems to make sense to post them all up here, so I will continue to do so
Anyways, this is an R&B mix and as you can see the video quality is much better and the look of each video and transition is a lot tighter now that I have got a proper feel of how to fine tune the editing process
Anyways, enjoy!

So, thought its about time again to post up another set list, it was from Saturday night just been at bar fly, honestly I thought it was going to be a rubbish night but it actually ended up being ok. Set wise it was ok, there wasn’t enough people there to go of on to many tangents so ended up playing a lot of tried and tested song combos etc but managed to throw in a couple of different ones in there as well as jumping a lot of genres as per usual
Set time 1.30am – 4am (2.5 hours)
New/Re-up/Decided to Play Tracks
Set List Saturday August 23rd 2014
Ok, so its Saturday night, the night before BeFM comp, its pissing down with rain, like crazy stormy outside so Im sitting in my hotel room and thought I would post this up since I have been sitting on it for awhile. This is my set list from a party I did at Venue with Pinn and Dante. It was a mean ass night, I had a lot of fun, it was a really good crowd who were really getting into it, was a shame I had to run off after my set and go DJ at Bar Fly. But here is my set list, as you can see, this is vastly different from what I play week in and week out, and it is the kind of music I love. It was a 2 hour set, also I played quite a few MJ tracks as a bit of a tribute to the great one. I will be posting up D’s Horizon next week since I am still catching up on SDCC and I have been away on holiday. Anyways here it is
I really should start recording these one day, but in the mean time here is an old skool mix I did that you might enjoy
