After not hearing a "great" podcast from him in many, many moons, I've become completely Obsessed with Tiesto's Club Life 118th podcast (7-6-09) on iTunes. The whole thing cannot last long enough for me, but particularly his mixes of the Dezza's "Believe," Orbital's "Halcyon + On + On" (a classic and a gorgeous song for well over a decade), and ( Read more... )

One of the things I love--in particular--about "techno" music is that if a song has lyrics, they tend to be repetitive. This makes many songs easy for me to hone in just on a few words, which I connect to the rest of the song, in a manner very much like a Mantra. This Song is one such example, from a DJ that was quite popular back in the day. ( Read more... )

I've been musically reminiscing lately for several reasons, not the least of which is to activate the Neuro-Associations I have to certain songs, particularly from around 1999-2001ish. Those were the best years of Trance IMHO, and this was enhanced by the fact that Satan & I used to go to one of the best clubs on the West Coast, the Panorama in ( Read more... )

Yeah, I know I've posted a lot today. It happens, particularly when I have a very Magickally active day or a snarky day, let alone both. I haven't even really started drinking yet, so there may be much more fun coming to your f-list tonight! I guess I'm making up for the relative silence here recently, it would seem.

I'm a horrendous music snob. Not an in-your-face snob that puts down others' musical tastes, but rather someone who absolutely refuses to be within earshot of music I cannot stand, which is 99.999999% of everything. When I got laid off my very last DJ position, I was most happy that I didn't have to listen to (let alone play) music I didn't want ( Read more... )

Apparently, the god of Trance that is DJ Tiesto is playing in PDX next Wednesday. Unfortunately, between the $50 tix price and the gas money it would cost, this all puts it solidly out of my price range. I'd also have to figure out either how I was getting home, or where I could stay up there. And anyone else who would accompany me. &c.

I dedicate tonight's Dancing to

the many Friends, Family, & Powers that Be whom have made my Life what it is
a Celebration of my new Home & an incredibly successful Othala Working
looking forward to at least as much success in my upcoming (and longer term) Fehu Working
My Selves, for all that they have done, without whom none of this would have ( Read more... )

First off, I have no problem with people who are considerate, make an attempt to maneuver around others (me), or otherwise are trying their best to at least attempt to stick to the beat. I can Share the Dancer Floor quite well with others who are staying in their own Space. Having said that...

It's called a Dance Floor, not a "Stand" ( Read more... )
