Last night was Lyssa and Paul's 10th Wedding Anniversary at The Driver. Having the first set, I got to play the First Dance - the one that they weren't allowed to have at their original wedding reception.

A couple of weeks ago, I got a message from a couple of friends, saying "Person X is looking for a DJ and we've recommended you", so I got in touch with them. And as a result, ended up doing a four-hour set last night for the Barfleet party at LonCon3/WorldCon 2014 at ExCel, London ( Read more... )

On Saturday night I was covering the warm-up set from 8pm to 9pm, with Mat then DJing the bulk of the Ball.

DJing the Friday night at BiCon this year. Played a few tracks while Ford was sorting out his gear, then handed over to him for a rather fine opening set, before carrying on for the rest of the night myself, including, by vocal request, 'The Dr Who bit', and also a little slot inspired by the weather.

Fourth wedding of the year, and third wedding reception DJ set ... This time we were in the industrial setting of the London Museum Of Water & Steam (formerly the Kew Bridge Steam Museum), with the dance-floor set between the stationary engines and the decks set up in front of the impressive backdrop of one of them. It was rather a warm day (that ( Read more... )

The first Shenanigans of 2014, at the start of May, was the "Unseelie Carnival". Again upstairs at Canal 125, with an extra hour of DJing at the start, and a crowd who seemed willing to trust the DJs and keep dancing even if they weren't familiar with the track - always appreciated!

And the second setlist from last week - this time Jo and Mikk's wedding reception in the rather fine setting of the Brunswick Centre, Whitby, a former Methodist chapel. My decks were set up in the pulpit, which apparently looked quite impressive from the floor. Following some reshuffling of the order of speeches, buffet, first dance and live band, ( Read more... )

The Shambles again, now under new management, with a bar extension, and a refurb in process that included some new pool table lights that nearly succumbed to Van Halen's Jump, having an apparent magnetic attraction for the taller attendees. Still, no-one went out of any of the windows, I don't believe there were any concussions this time, and no- ( Read more... )

This weekend I was honoured to be one of the DJ's offered the chance to DJ at the wedding reception of Fury and Wesley, in a gorgeous location in Derbyshire, surrounded by a large number of reprobates from the Gothic Mobile Infantry. Stonking evening, with some excellent sets by Crispygoth and Borgias, followed by my mine (below). The couple had ( Read more... )

Three bands (Pocketwatch, Ghostfire and Bad Pollyanna) and four DJs, along with a theatrical piece - quite a busy night! As one of the DJs, here are my sets ...
