also judging by BIS setlists (I don't always get to listen to the show live), and the Our Disco set, and the Backlash set he did for ourselves in Dublin, Tim knows his music plenty.
And I mean, on further reflection that Superpitcher interview pretty much was the first time I ever heard him talk, and it felt very like his persona, so if the main skill of interviewing is getting the subject to relax then Tim did fine.
(while we're here, anyone know what the techy track Superpitcher plays that samples "Plastic Doll" by Dharma is. it's not DJ T, though I know there are probably a few electrohouse tracks that sample that tune)

I was standing outside Love that night with some people and we couldn't figure out how the hell to get into the fucking place. They muttered and went on their drunken way and I stood there for a second more like a jackass before I realized what the damned arrow was saying. But, that crowd was pretty decent considering the cover price.

that chris carter track at the start is so so nice, what record is it from?

looks great dan, can't wait to listen.
― g®▲đұ, Friday, 1 June 2007 20:59 (nineteen years ago)
thanks for the kind words people. The Carter track is from a CTI comp...the real shock of the evening is that I forgot to bring Carter's The Space Between CD, which was something I'd discussed with Tim some time ago that got us talking about this stuff.
― dan selzer, Friday, 1 June 2007 21:25 (nineteen years ago)
the chris carter is also on his 'mondo beat' lp. i'm really looking forward to downloading this. tim told me about it a few weeks ago and was super psyched. glad to see sweeney played 'sun flight' - that's one of my desert island discs. good work mr. selzer.
― stirmonster, Friday, 1 June 2007 21:54 (nineteen years ago)
Great mix, Dan!

thanks, and thanks for coming out wednesday night. If there was a Dazzle Ships club, you'd be the first member.

dan your set was really good!
currently listening to the 15th anniversary mix, the classics disc starts off with victor from washington heights of course.
― electric sack butt (haitch), Tuesday, 2 December 2014 05:42 (eleven years ago)
Thanks. I'm pretty happy with how it came out. The second half is a bit spotty and I missed playing certain stuff I wanted to get to, but Tim was kind enough to have already given me a ton of time.
― dan selzer, Tuesday, 2 December 2014 15:16 (eleven years ago)
1000th show this week and a great selection of tunes from the last 20 years played, many of which I'd completely forgotten about (like KZA and Sidwho?)

He should just move it to The Lot or the like. 99% of his listernship is online and he carries his own archives via patreon support.

Anyone know what this one could be? From his 2008 mix CD for RVNG.
― plazzTT, Friday, 21 May 2021 14:07 (five years ago)
Wow! Great song, but no idea on the ID--Neu! '75 meets Roxy downtown
― Kangol In The Light (Craig D.), Friday, 21 May 2021 14:23 (five years ago)
yeah sounds like a band losing themselves in a La Düsseldorf/Eno wormhole
― willem, Friday, 21 May 2021 14:26 (five years ago)
Sounds like a Conny Plank production. Where’s Julian Cope’s Krautrockshazampler when you need it.
― Michael F Gill, Friday, 21 May 2021 20:54 (five years ago)
no idea but it's so good!
― donna rouge, Friday, 21 May 2021 21:23 (five years ago)
Has anybody asked him?

found it!!
The Mickey Bliss Band - Trapezoid

― donna rouge, Saturday, 22 May 2021 21:05 (five years ago)
I asked him if it was a song vahid thought it was and he said with the name I’d this thread he wasn’t going to help.
― dan selzer, Saturday, 22 May 2021 22:05 (five years ago)
Excellent work xp
I was also searching for "trapezoid" as the title and guessed early 80s.
― Noel Emits, Sunday, 23 May 2021 10:52 (five years ago)
Can't believe the thread title finally made Tim Sweeney go off the inernet because of you 16 years later.
― Noel Emits, Sunday, 23 May 2021 13:00 (five years ago)
I grabbed the 12” off Discogs already. Almost Ready in Brooklyn had a copy
― dan selzer, Sunday, 23 May 2021 15:53 (five years ago)
12" ?
― Noel Emits, Sunday, 23 May 2021 15:57 (five years ago)
Sorry single. I didn’t think I even noticed what size it was.

"Sweeney, as well as guest DJs, will be paid, and the artists whose music appears in DJ mixes will also be paid out from the streaming service."
This seems like a good development.
