Difficult Listening Hour 2020.12.26: Acapella? Really?

by

For my final Difficult Listening Hour of 2020, I’ve lined up a set that I’d been playing with off and on for a few weeks: A full set of acapella covers!

Because, you know, how else would a primarily ebm/goth/industrial/electronica DJ wrap up the year than with…beatmatched acapella. Sure, why not?

NOTE: Is the Mixcloud link not working for this one? Turns out that part of Mixcloud’s licensing means that if a mix has more than four tracks by a single artist, playback is limited to Premium and Select subscribers.

If that’s the case, then while it’s not as fancy as MixCloud, you can use this local player instead!

Fine Halcyon Days

by

I have a number of mixes that I created a long time ago when I was mixing off an external CD mixer, recording the audio stream, and then posting that unedited. Here and there when I have time, I’m going to be going back and re-creating them with the more modern tools I have today. Here’s the first!

This is an update of A Fine Day’s Mix, stringing together three takes on Opus III’s “It’s A Fine Day”. Basically twenty minutes of the same thing, I can see it being either enjoyable background dreaminess or unending aggravation, depending on your fondness for the original track.

Difficult Listening Hour 2020.11.28: Thank(s)/giv(e/ing)

by

Every track has “thank”, “give”, or “giving” in the title. Thematically and lyrically, few if any are particularly Thanksgiving-related, and it’s a mishmash of styles and genres. Happy Thanksgiving!

Difficult Listening Hour 2020.11.07: Biden/Harris Win Edition

by

90 minutes of upbeat, happy, celebratory songs. No real plan; I started by searching my library for the keywords ‘party’, ‘celebrate’, and ‘America’, and improvised from there, with a few requests tossed in as the set went along.

Congratulations to Joe Biden and Kamala Harris! It’s been a long four years.

Two hours of “spüki tünes with DJ Wüdi on Halloween afternün”. Goth Christmas silliness! Some classics, some newer, some oddities, some just felt like they fit.
