I’m Just A Shot Away From You

For those of you who were interested, this is what I played last night. We had to change the schedule at the last minute, so I ended up playing one long set instead of two shorter sets.

Annie “Chewing Gum” / Lo Fi FNK “Unighted” / Futon “Gay Boy” / Plus-Tech Squeeze Box “The Martin Show!!” / Superthriller “Ahjustwannadance” / Cristina “What’s A Girl To Do?” / Cousin Cole “Yeah Me Out” / The Knife “Heartbeats” / Fox “Sssingle Bed”/M.I.A. “URAQT (Diplo Mix)”/ Fox & Wolf “Youth Alcoholic” / United State Of Electronica “La Discoteca” / The Go Team “The Power Is On” / Kylie & Scissor Sisters “I Know” / Johnny Boy “You Are The Generation…(remix)” / Morningwood “Take Off Your Clothes” / Erasure “Stop” / David Wrench “World War IV” / Mousse T “Is It Cos I’m Cool?” / X-Wife “Rockin’ Rio” / Dizzee Rascal “Stand Up Tall” / Plastic Operator “Folder” / ESG “My Love For You” / Puffy “Asia No Junshin (Malcolm McLaren mix)” / Smash TV “Queen Of Man” / Bugz In The Attic “Booty (La La)” / Ce’cile “Hot Like We” / Freeform Five “Electromagnetic” / Heloise & The Savoir Faire Dancers “Odyle” / Gene Serene “Electric Dreams” / Girls Aloud “Love Machine” / Primal Scream “Shoot Speed/Kill Lights”

It was a pretty good crowd given that it was a weekday night just before a major holiday. I totally understand why a lot of folks couldn’t make it out – hopefully I can get some kind of full-on dance party/event going in the near future that will work out for everyone. (If you’ve got something in mind, please send me an email.) Thanks to everyone who came out, I really appreciate it.

Cousin Cole “Yeah Me Out” – In case you were wondering what this was on the playlist, it’s the year’s biggest crunk-pop and dance-rock hits fused together far more seamlessly than one might reasonably expect. You know which songs I’m talking about. I don’t need to spell this out for you. I only feel lukewarm about these songs individually, but hearing them both weave in and out of one another and merge together is a bit of a thrill. (Click here to visit Cousin Cole’s website.)

There will be no post tomorrow, since it will be Thanksgiving here in the United States. There might be something on Friday, but I’m not sure. Things will definitely be back to normal on Monday. It’s been a busy week, and I haven’t had a lot of time to go through the new records that I have or seek out anything new. I hope that you understand. Enjoy your turkey/tofurkey/frantic Christmas shopping.
