It's an extra special Rewind Night celebrating 30 years since the opening of the original Vertex! Lots of classics and maybe even some long forgotten favorites. See you on the dance floor!

04/05/2024

Just a friendly reminder that tonight's a Rewinder, so you can expect to hear a lot of Vertex Night Club classics along with some older stuff that will sound vaguely familiar. Until I get bored with that and just play whatever the flock I feel like. See you on the dance floor!

Back in the Vertex Night Club booth tonight to bring you 5 hours of alternative music and videos. Come join the fun at 10 PM!

Tonight is an extra special eclipse party at Vertex! I'll be playing dark music in a mostly dark room with people dressed in dark clothing! Ok, so a usual Saturday night. But I do have some extra eclipse glasses if you need a pair for Monday! See you on the dance floor (unless it's too dark)

It feels like it's been a while even though I really only missed one week, but it's been a busy time!

I'll be back in the DJ booth tonight and we'll see what the universe brings.

Hope to see you all on the dance floor!

DJing is like being the engineer on a train. You may be running the equipment but you're not in charge of where it goes.

Time to wake up and get ready for Vertex Night Club! I'll be in the booth all night for your entertainment needs.

In the meantime, here's some studio noise I made last week.

See you on the dancefloor!

My sets have felt really chaotic to me the last few months. I've been dealing with increased migraine/headache issues and tried a few different meds to mitigate their impact (with minimal success) but it's been challenging. Some nights it also seems to affect my perception and it can be difficult to really "hear" how to the music sounds. One of the things I do to help me get through the night is to take a gummy or smoke and drink less when I'm DJing. That helps with the headache but can make it harder to deliver a coherent set, it also makes me more willing to try new things which don't always work, but it can be fun to push my boundaries (after all, it is called pressing "Play"). I'm still working on this and hopefully I'll be able to come up with a workable solution so I can squeeze out a few more years of DJing. Either that or I'm just getting old and it's time to start slowing down a bit. 😛

Mother nature has not been kind to us on Saturday nights in 2024 but Vertex is open tonight and I will be DJing. We'll be there if you decide to head out but please be careful, your safety is more important than your support! I'll likely be broadcasting if you feel like tuning in after 10.

Going to relax and maybe nap a bit so I've got lots of energy for you all tonight. Let's see what fun we can get up to tonight!

I put the last 3 weeks worth of shows up on Mixcloud. I figured it was a good chance to show the 3 different types of nights that I do. Some people seem to get confused over the difference between a Rewind Night and an 80s night, as compared to a normal no theme night. Here you get recent examples of all 3. Enjoy

Been a bit sick this week but should be good enough to DJ for you all tonight. Hope to see you all out on the dance floor (just not at the same time, you'll probably need to take turns)

Fun night yesterday, we were thinking it might be slow due to Jazz Fest but no, hit capacity for a while. Thanks for your support!

25/06/2023

Back in town after my NYC trip and looking forward to DJing for you. Yes it's Jazz Fest but usually that starts to wind down around 11 so don't let that keep you away. See you all soon!
