Returned to the DJ booth at The Lounge/Nightclub Kollis at ICH WILL – the first Rammstein-themed London club night. Technical issues resulted in my first set being extended by an hour, plus a little extra at the close of the night. A quite amazing night all being told – Here’s what I played.

Renaissance VII

DJ Setlist

The Renaissance festival returned in 2017 in it’s new home of The Lounge (aka Nightclub Kolis) in Archway. The festival is a celebration of all forms of alternative culture, with art exhibitions, comic books, video clips and life drawing all featuring on this occasion, though the musical elements still occupy much of the day. There was a double-ended stage setup indoors (RAM and TWIN stages) and a small performance area outdoors (ARCHERS stage), and no less than 8 DJs filling in the gaps between the various performances. Here’s my contribution.

Archers Stage Set

New ground always being broken, this was my first ever DJ set outdoors. This accounts for the quite subtle nature of what I played.
