 Tomorrow night.
	Tomorrow night.I got almost all my records out last night, just a bit more to sort out later. I shall be on the funk tip but have some 50s rock'n'roll in the bag because Lusty likes it. She doesn't have my experience in this job, though, which tells me not many people do, especially not West End types. I might bung some 88-90 upbeat hip hop in there - no one likes that either but I really don't give a shit. This is why I never quite 'made it'. One should always play records to get the 'chicks' dancing. Where they go, pathetic desperate men will follow. DJing for your own (and your specialist nerd mates') enjoyment just doesn't work. Apart from for you and your specialist nerd mates. Which is where not giving a shit is useful.

 yeah, the record selection bit is where the hard work goes.
	yeah, the record selection bit is where the hard work goes.The actual playing them bit is a piece of piss. Getting chicks on the dancefloor is an art all of its own- when I play club sets I go for house records with good basslines that still sound alright pitched up around 132 BPM. Women fucking love bass.
Chicks first, then the boys will follow. Different rules for bar/ backroom sets though, get the hip hop nerds on board first, then the chicks will follow. I personally find club sets much more rewarding though far more stressful. Bar sets where you're just soundtracking things are more 'fun'.

 Dubstep's alright.
	Dubstep's alright.Just like with any other genre you need to ignore the mainstream pop shit and dig a little deeper.
You heard any Benga tracks? He's good. As is Martyn, he bridges the dubstep/techno crossover thing. Also check out Shackleton and Kode 9.

	There aren't many artists I know tbhMy friend talks about Savant quite a bit, might have to give that a listen. Just a shame I've only got one system that can deliver half-decent bass, but I don't tend to use it much, as housemate below me hates it.

 see, dubstep is ostensibly club music
	see, dubstep is ostensibly club musicBut I find it far too slow. It's alright for headphone listening (especially the more garagey stuff like Burial). It's way past its creative peak as well, people like Mt Kimbie, and to a lesser extent, James Blake, are doing some interesting stuff with the template.
It's pretty much done what Drum n Bass did back in the day- been assimilated into pop tracks and cheap & nasty Ministry of Sound compilations. Like I said, dig a bit deeper than Magnetic Man and Skrillex.
