Recap: Haven & Hell 12.2 - 12.3
HAVEN; December 2
PRONed at the Exotic Erotic Fetish Ball!
or
"What's Up With The 'Planet of the Pink Apes' Porn?!"
It's just a dream about naughty things when people dress the theme; oh, so yummy! heh heh ;)
Meanwhile, as a by-product of being a little stressed from the schedule I was anticipating during the course of 30 hours,(Haven, then two movie screenings and reports for work, then Hell, with all the state-wide travel and lack of sleep between,) I was a bit less social than usual and didn't dance much. My body seemed to just say "no" to dancing, despite Znuh spinning a set that would have kept me on the floor the whole time. Perhaps my body was instinctively making sure I reserved my energy since it knew I'd be going fairly sleepless during that time period.
Whatever the case, I still had a good time and didn't do too bad with my sets. I made one real abrupt segue attempting to move from a down-tempo track to an up-tempo track with a short beat-less intro... it didn't work as I was hearing it in my head. I own that, my bad.
Still a good set, but I really need to do these experiments at home. :)
One other note: There is a song that I've been playing for a few months that, for some reason, suddenly attracted a lot of attention when I played it last at the Crüxshadows show... and that interest resonated such that someone came up to ask about it after my last set, 2 weeks later! That's pretty cool. So I promise I'll play it again when I return to Haven for Noel Noir on Tuesday, December 23. I'll be spinning along side DJs Mothra, and Znuh!

HELL; December 3
I had to rush from my movie screening work at the mall theater (ending at 9pm) over to Fetish Night at Club Hell to spin until 11pm. I got there 15 minutes after opening, diving right in with down-tempo tracks and building gradually into the up-tempo. First hour seemed to fill fairly slow, but the crowd really arrived between 10-10:30, so the floor finally picked up about then. I had a bit of a difficult time hearing how things sounded from the floor so I hope all the transitions sounded okay. I didn't get any complaints though and my dj peers seemed to enjoy what I was doing, so it was probably fine, though I wasn't sure at the time.
Just my self-deprecating nature, I guess.
Dank Coma said I did well and I could expect to hear from him to do it again some time.
Hope it's soon. It's nice to spin so much closer to home.
Here are my sets from Fetish Night at Club Hell:
9-11p set
