dark and brooding like an ex-raver fed up with the undanceability of most modern IDM music, this compu-hyper-global-mega-net mix is at once both a big fuck-you to the IDM nay-sayers calling for it’s death (which may be more than a little bit true), as it is a dirty triumph of dance music as a whole. the mix digs deep into the vault and pulls out all of the tracks that made me take a double-take while on my iPod’s rotation. who knew those tracks i had been earmarking for my next dj set would fit together so well? all of these songs have one thing in common, a pounding desire to make you shake your ass, as well as cause your brain to jump-up and say hell-yeah! with all of the power contained in the dopey rhythms of IDM’s back side, with a little adult swim playfulness thrown in for good measure.
this mix was performed live at knock knock on 5.25.2005.
