Hi NRG - search and destroy

emil.y (and anyone else East Midlands-adjacent), I'll be playing two Hi-NRG nights in Nottingham: on Saturday September 23rd and then two weeks later on Saturday October 7th. The venue is Prohibition, which is the newly converted basement club space below the Lord Roberts on Broad Street, and I'll be playing from 9pm to 2am on both nights.

Oooh. I almost certainly can't make the September one but I will put the October one into my diary and try for that!

Ahh, I'm so sorry - I went out on Friday and was so hungover yesterday I couldn't make it. How have they been? Are you planning for any more of them?

The first one was way too quiet, but last night was much more like it, and so they want me to do another. The people there who properly got what I was doing were a joy to behold, and I felt fully connected to the room. That said, you can’t stray too far away from the big crossover hits for too long, so I steered clear of specialist over-indulgence!

yes please

!!!!!!

particularly fond of the titles of each individual disc too

That’s an immaculate collection, as someone once said.

Fabulous tracklisting

Another appearance on the Lot. Lots of italo and hi-nrg. This time closer to 60/40. Also incongrous tributes to Damo Suzuki.

lovely picks dan. stop bajon and kkk are two of my all-timers in a row

I knew I wanted to play some Can tribute tracks but didn't think about how they might fit in and figured they'd just be outliers, and Stop Bajon was just something I finally got so I brought it, but not necessarily the vibe of what I was going to play. But as Can was playing and I was trying to figure out how to go from Turtles Have Short Legs I thought huh, this might kinda work, certainly more than anything else in my bag!

when turtles have short legs was playing i could hear in the drums what made you think to play stop bajon after

or at least i thought i could!

it worked better than some Bobby O at least!
