2015 Dec I Play for Paris Pt.2




House is a Journey show

Summary: I Play for Paris Pt.2   Handbag House tunes bordering on lipstick Pop!   Fittingly starting with “Too Young to Die” with a rather long medley of Moloko’s “Sing it Back” in the first third. At that stage, I had to attend to some social duties and cued what is one of my favourite tune to fill up the blanks.     One month ago some nihilistic losers butchered 130 women and men in Paris…   Forget about the social media meltdown, France is my country and Paris my city. Whereas France is actually far from being the model country it aspires to be, by attacking “her” for being the “capital of prostitution and obscenity”, those bastards just proved that somehow those symbols of secularism and freedom are still alive and worth celebrating.   Forward to a few days ago… I was unable to mix anything, which wasn’t dark and filled with anger for a month until we decided to have an impromptu party. The core nexus of friends who could make it facing Xtian who was wondering what would spark his muse and how he could get out of his negative loop and make himself and his friends happy.   I played a 4 hour set, took about 20 minutes to get into it but once I found the right format for this forum it flowed. Got out of my spleen and played fun eclectic jams, old and new edits of tunes everyone knew but cuts they had not heard before. Whereas my usual format is to play current paid releases in whatever genre takes my fancy, I went into a “Richard Vasquez/Doctor Love” mode and played for me and for my friends.   Four hours later, they were asking for more and pushing me to go harder and louder. Take that nihilistic butchers, this is our answer to your dead-end philosophy.   Set is cut into 3 parts, slightly edited of what did not quite work live but true to the spirit of the night.     Part 2 is simply feel-good handbag house.     Playlist:   Too Young To Die (Shane D Remix).
