Anything relating to my DJ Wüdi alter ego.
I’m sadly lacking in photos (that I haven’t already posted) worthy of #worldgothday, so in lieu of a photo, here’s a #throwbackthursday sketch given to me in 1998 by Jon Hannah, back when I was doing the alt/goth/industrial DJ thing at Gig’s (and/or the Lost Abbey). On the original, text underneath reads, “A DJ’s life is full of difficult choices.”
Quality’s not great, but it’s a crop of a scan of a photo taken in 1995. My first DJ gig, at City Lights in Anchorage. This was a top-40/hip-hop club that I talked into doing a weekly “alternative night”. Only ran for a few weeks before it fell apart, but it was enough to kick off an eight-year run DJing alt/goth/electronica clubs for me. #throwbackthursday
Back in February, I took up a challenge from one of my friends (prompted by the Gigs mix I posted) to create a mix based around songs that I’d have played at the Lost Abbey, during the mid- to late-1990s. To get a little help putting together the playlist, I put out a call for requests on Facebook, and ended up with something around 14 hours of possible songs, almost entirely pulled from requests by people who used to see me spin at the Lost Abbey.
Since 14 hours is far too long to do as a single mix, I’ve broken the requests up into multiple 80-ish-minute playlists. Here’s the eleventh (and, at this point, last) in the series!
