I had a wonderful time spinning last night at Art Party Goth Industrial Night in Morgantown, WV! They have a burgeoning goth scene there, and nurturing a community has always been near to my heart.

My pal Tara (DJ Callisto) will be DJing in the Warehouse, and the delightful DJ Erica Scary will be spinning at the Bottlerocket Social Hall for the afterparty. All admission is free, and it’s all masterminded by the incomparable Macabre Noir. Come buy some spooky wares! There are lots of food vendors. Uber or Lyft is recommended.

Gonna do a popup stream on Twitch today. I‘ll be starting sometime around 6 or 7 eastern (keeping it casual), and I’ll go for three hours.

Hour 1: Father’s Day. Songs for my dad, including dark psychedelic ‘60s rock, sunglasses-wearing rockers from the late ‘80s, and some vaguely goth adjacent artists like Leonard Cohen.

Hour 2: Juneteenth. Some of my favorite songs featuring black vocalists. Goth, goth adjacent, and stuff goths like.

Hour 3: Moving Shadows mini-set. Darkwave, industrial, and goth released in 2022 or 2021 that I think is worth your attention.

Swing by if you’re in the mood. It would be lovely to see you! My Twitch handle is djkellya. I’ll be putting some of the recordings up on Mixcloud later as well.
