stepping up to the decks to an already full crowd at 2am:
MY SELECTAH!!
thats a tune
but out of curiosity, as a dj when you play this as your first tune, and considering its 10+ minutes long, what was the kind of mix you'd do??
i cant help but think if i played this i'd stand around twiddling my thumbs for 6minutes before doing anything!
I'd filter the low bits out verrrry slowly. Definitely one to be carefull with indeed.

Thanks bruz. Went alright more dancers would have been nice but got some props which was cool. And there were lots of people standing round the dancefloor nodding was on second @ 10pm. dropped some portishead, massive attack, vex'd -disposition, black sun empire, matty g, cruel culture - future and suchlike then rolled the tempo right down at the end for some dj krush more massive attack and offwhyte, into a real dark slow 44 number. played a fair bit of my own shit too. Was so nervous i couldnt really enjoy it, looking forward to next time tho

Great thread. I think something a bit different usually goes down well. Kode9 opening with Regulators at DMZ 6th Birthday was just epic.

Reggae/Dub is usually a good mood setter. I know "Dance of the Vampires - The Scientist" is about 137bpm or something

Yeah I did, and to Vulva:
I think it gets the ball rollin fast man! And works well as a highlight too, I think it can be a little interchangeable with return II space once you bump the bpm up a bit
edit: Theif in da night is great too, no dickin around waintin for an intro. Also the slugabed remix of starkey's stars is good for the start of a 2am set
