King Koopa, Uncle Hank, I made you a mixed tape. Do not accidentally listen to side B, or you will fall in love. OK, so a looong time ago, when the Freeform DJ Collective first started, I had an idea to make a Valentine’s Day Compilation. King Koopa, DJ Sweetie Pie and I got together and started working on it, but after a few hours we got drunk, went dancing at Gate 54, and I ended up sleeping in my bathroom. E-Rock also sent in a contribution from the UK, the project has since been put on hold because King Koopa moved to New York and DJ Sweetie Pie left Freeform DJs to focus on other projects. The other day I was just fucking around and found some of my notes from then, so I threw some of the tracks together. The final mix, if we ever pick this project back up, will be much more cohesive and feature more tricks and will make you really fall in love. Consider this a “practice session”, as if to say: I like you, but I’m not in like with you. Yet! If you’ve seen me play recent (at FUR, Sonar or Beyond) you probably heard parts of this mix already.

As some of you know, I've been a regular guest at Club Five's Arcadia -- a weekly "alternative" night that features "industrial, gothic, synthpop, ebm, indie, electro, 80's, britpop". I don't tend to fit in too well there. There are a few reasons why. For one, even though I used to listen to industrial music all the time in high school, nowadays I go months without even looking at my KFMDM CDs. Secondly, I have no goth friends anymore, other than the ones I hang out with at the goth nights. And third, my mixing style is very unorthodox, especially when it comes to the goth scene. The way it was explained to me was: goth people are very particular about their music, so when a song comes on that they like, they want to hear it through. And, as you all know, I get tired of tracks after a minute and just switch to the next one. Last time I played one guy was so angry at me for not letting tracks play out that he called me an asshole and bla bla bla. It was intense! Anyway, I still do it because I love music and I love DJing and I get more compliments than insults, so I'm coming out on top. Here is a mix I made in preparation for my gig there this Thursday. I think I've done a good job at playing classics that everyone knows, playing out the entire track (well sometimes, but notice that I'm playing 18 tracks in an hour instead of in 30 minutes), and still having fun with a little scratching and looping. I don't get too crazy with the mixing and there's a lot of just straight cutting-through to the next track. This is how they like it!

This one's a little hard to swallow because I tried to throw all my ideas in one mix, so you have five-minute pockets of great shit in a sea of juxtaposed nonsense. Also I just upgraded to the latest Serato with auto-loop, and those of you who've seen me live know that when I have effects at my disposal, I abuse them to the maximum. But trust me, some good shit in here! I've bolded the important parts so you can skip to them.
