Alternative Bring’n’Buy Sale – August 2009

My second Goth/Alternative Bring and Buy. It may be background music but it seems to be appeciated by stallholders who are there for the full 6 hours. Besides, future sets might well not be background music, so I do take the job seriously. Well, I do get a fair bit of fun out of it (see the last set!) or I wouldn’t have done it.Today I was spinning alongside Robert from Night Shift Radio. He’s a trad-goth/post-punk specialist, so in response I concentrated on what we might describe as ‘goth friendly tracks that aren’t goth in the purest sense’.

Alternative Bring’n’Buy Sale – November 2008

My return to the decks after more that 6 years off came at the Alternative Bring’n’Buy Sale at The Dome in Tufnell Park. It wasn’t a dancefloor-oriented event, so I meant I could really stretch my wings and show that I’m not tied down to any one subgenre. Even then, I only got to touch on some areas of the scene, but I’m quite pleased about how it turned out in the end.

EOL-Era Setlists

Here is an archive of sets that I undertook in what I now call my ‘EOL Era’ in the early 00s. These sets are not representative of what I do today! I’ve got a much wider and more diverse collection now, but I don’t deny my history and thought it’d be interesting to dig these out the archive to see how I’ve progressed.
I haven’t included everything – a couple of the sICk Night In sets I did were only around 3 songs long and hence aren’t really worth saving – I played nothing in them that I haven’t played elsewhere anyway.

Metal Box – 18 October 2002

Have dug this setlist out of the archives, as it was my first attempt at doing a London nightclub, even if it was one of the many short-lived ‘Thursday night at Gossips’ affairs we had in the late 90s and early 00s. Little did I know at the time that it would be my last set for 6 years.

MaxDmyz Support Slot – 11 November 2001

Whiplash – 2 June 2001
