R.I.P. to the absolute best, who has touched me so deeply with his music, art, wisdom, and often very funny, yet very poignant irreverence.

Sometimes people think I only DJ the cheesiest Italo. And often I do! Other times it's like this and all robot Belgian electro and some Gabi Delgado as Future Perfect. I think mostly people have no idea what I play, and that's kind of okay. Gotta keep it weird!

There's a special place in my heart for this kind of French synthpop, including (maybe especially) this kind of music video.

Final report of the Nostromo, third officer reporting. The party tonight is at BAR 808. Dance floor will be destroyed. I should reach the decks in about three hours (I start playing at midnight). With a little luck, no one will try to pick me up (dudes go away). This is Ripley, last survivor of the Nostromo, signing off!
