Novemberkyla Mix

I did a short 30-minutes mix playing ambient and dub techno two days ago, which I'd like to share with those of you who read my blog. It features tracks from Ocralab's new EP Nocturnal Transitions, Mon0's EP Sensaura, Code0066 and Dublicator.

Remember to support the artists.

Practise Makes Perfect

I decided to put up a mix I did as part of my practice in 2009, covering the excellent net-label Thinner on the service Mixcloud. Their stellar releases covers electronic music fused with the echo-ridden world of dub.

1st of May

Karlstad Viken Bar - 22:00 til' 02:00. 1:st of May bash.
Me, the Guy behind Babylon Disco and Donnie Darko behind the decks spinning the music.

Lo and Behold

The HP Laptop



The External Soundcard and Mixer

Looks like there is some training ahead. :)

Step by Step

My savings have finally yielded results. In less then two weeks this march I have purchased both a digital mixer for DJ-purposes. In this case a Numark Total Control with a external USB-Sound Card. A DJ I/O. And as by a stroke of luck I found a newly serviced HP Pavilion dv6501eo with a heavy discount.

The Hewlett Packard is a dual core platform with two AMD Athlon processors on 1.7 ghz clock. It has 120 gigabyte of hdd and one gig of ddr 2 ram (soon to be updated to two gig). It came shipped with the resource demanding OS Windows Vista Premium. The pro is that it was less expensive then the most inexpensive celeron-platform. Anyway: This will be used together with the Numark and the DJ I/O for live purposes. Maybe even as soon as the First of May.

Photos of my new equipment will be published soon via this blog :)

Short update on things happening

I will DJ on Viken Bar in Karlstad on queer night out on Saturday with my friend Daniel (MlO) Naeill. I will show him the DJ-mixer and guide him as well as spin some tracks of my own during the night.

I also got a positive response to my earlier blogpost. :) Yeah. In the summer I will spin records for the nice people in Viken once or twice a month. Positive stuff indeed.

For hire

Next week I am going to try to persuade a pub-owner in my hometown to let me DJ on occasion on a more regular basis. Or at least just try to give him the idea that I am availiable for hire. The reason is partially because I am looking to purchase new equipment. First and foremost, a DJ-mixer. Then a laptop. My goal is to get more training and money so that I can afford the equipment at hand.

Let's see what happens. Wish me luck.
