I am pleased with the Subspace gig on Saturday night. I had the 11-12 and 2-3 set times which worked out well. I started the evening off with some minimal techy / electro tunes and then moved into some  harder stuff combined with some remixes - I spun the Terrible Lie by NIN remix I did which went over very well. With my second set I knew I had to start off strong and keep the dancefloor going which I did with some BSOD tracks and Chemical Brothers that really got the place moving. Later on I mixed in my Join in the Chant (Nitzer Ebb) and So What (Mininstry)remixes along the way which was also received well.

I have really been into some great techno stuff and the label that really getsg me going lately is the 1605 Recordings by Umek, he also has a free podcast which is amazing if you want to sample it. I can't say enough about this label and the artist, he is putting out some really good dark and hard techno tracks. I am also really enjoying the electro sounds of BSOD (Better Sounding on Drugs - love the name) with their solid booming basslines it is always a crowd pleaser.

Thanks to everyone that come out on Saturday and hope to see you all on the dancefloor soon!

Cheers. 

As I mentioned before I have been remixing some old school industrial tracks and it has been progressing better than I thought, it has also been a lot of fun too. I now plan to remix 4 or 5 classic industrial tracks from the early 90's into a new techno version and DJ them together into a remix CD. I hope to have this ready for the Subspace party and maybe give some away at the event.

I just wanted to recap where I can be found on the web:

www.myspace.com/pulseplant - videos and full lenght version of Pulse Plant songs

www.soundcloud.com/pulse-plant - Pulse Plant DJ sets

www.pulseplant.com - home page

It is sometimes a challenge keeping all of these pages up to date but I do try so keep checking back every once in a while.

In other news, I was hoping to spin the Fetish Halloween party @ the Opera House but it looks like other DJ's have been booked so I am a bit bummed out. So far the year has been pretty good to me for gigs but I feel the last half of the year may be slowing down. However I am sure something will come up - I hope.

I hope to see you all @ Neutral on Aug 28th.

I have been having some fun lately digging into the vault of my collection and remixing some old industrial tunes. I still like the classic industrial sounds of Nitzer Ebb, Front 242 and Front Line Assembly, however as one can expect they don't hold up today as sound quality, mix and other factors have advanced so much, so I have been tweaking some of these tracks to give them more of a current feel with a techno edge. I just finished a wicked techno / electro remix of Join in the Chant that I must say really kick ass. I plan on spinning this mix at the next Subspace on August 28th @ Neutral. If you are reading this and attend the party, let me know what you think of the mix as I am really hyped about it.

Cheers.

I'm happy with the Dark Rave gig. Vola on Adelaide St was a great venue to spin at although it was hot as hell in the club, partly because the place was packed also the people were dancing their asses off and really into the music. I always enjoy the energy at the Dark Rave's and I had many complements on my DJ set which is always a bonus. I spun some really intense psytrance and was suprised that hard was never too hard, the crowd really seemed to love the heavy psy beats I was spinning. Now I am ready change gears and spin some techno / electro tunes at the Subspace on August 28th @ Neutral, I have a wicked set lined up. Hope to see you on the dance floor.
