Roses are red. Violets are tender.

It’s Saturday. So time for an imaginary DJ set from within the imaginary backroom of my imaginary nightclub…

647 / #201 open.spotify.com/playlist/0TD... From a Drum & Bass start to a Hauntology finish this week. Ambient Dub, Tech House, Hip Hop and Soul are also mixed up in between… Embrace The Eclectic.

Post a “banger” that is not in English. Şenay “Honki Ponki” Some amazing (and annoying, but fun) Turkish Pop from 1980. Warning : This may cause you to rip your ears off… youtu.be/EcnhzD1NNHM?...

My friend @yonayson.bsky.social sent a clip of classic 808 drum machine beats & how they were made. As good as it was, it omitted the ULTIMATE one (for me) So, I’m contractually obliged to remind you all of this 5min mini doc of how “Looking For The Perfect Beat” was made. youtu.be/kMi9O1bpU_o?...

When you’re immature, and the bus announces a stop, so you have to take a picture…

647 / #200 open.spotify.com/playlist/3vV... Last week’s #200 was a “special” one. Here’s the normal one. Back to the usual genre jumping jams… From a funky, Balearic-esque jam to a rare non Jungle track by, the always reliable, Coco Bryce. Loads in between. Embrace The Eclectic.

After last weeks “theme”, the imaginary back room in my imaginary Club has returned to its standard DJ policy…
