Week twenty-eight of my unplanned, unrehearsed, seat-of-the-pants goofing around. As a way of getting back into practice and doing something regularly, I’ve started doing regular Twitch broadcasts, now on Saturday afternoons. These are the results. Anything goes.

Thor’s Day Night Dance
This past weekend, I was the DJ for the Thursday Night Dance (which we named the Thor’s Day Night Dance) at a local convention.
We call it Thursday night, but we used to know it as Thor’s Day…and you can kick off your weekend of saving the world with a celebration worthy of Asgard itself! Join DJ Wüdi for an evening of tunes new and old for gods and mortals alike. Come dressed as your godlike representation or as your mortal alter-ego. Requests are not just welcome, but encouraged!
Here’s my full DJ set from the night, recorded live as the night went on! The full track is huge (4 hours, 23 minutes, 296.6 MB), so I’ve also split the night into four sections of roughly an hour each for easier downloading. In all the tracklists, tracks marked with “•” were requests.
Enjoy!
The full mix:

I don’t know why yet, but I like it. Sure -it is not as ground breaking as the first one, but at least it doesn’t sound like a rehash of the first disc.
Have to agree here…in the midst of all the Enigma-bashing that’s popped up, I like the new disc a lot…especially track three, Return to Innocence. Don’t really mind the male vocals on other tracks that much, either…
Besides, without a major change in style and content, there isn’t much Enigma could do to create another groundbreaking album, and still remain Enigma…much of their “sound” is that floaty, dreamy style, and I really don’t mind that they chose to go with mideastern chanting instead of Gregorian on this release. A simple rehash of the first album, while it might still have sounded good, would be boring…

Does anybody know any cds with Gregorian chants? I need to find some for my fiance. What I’m looking for would be similar in style to the ones used on Sadeness by Enigma. Looking for the chants only, no drum or other instruments. We need to sample them for a song that we’re doing called ‘Behind Enchantments Veil’. Thanks in advance.
I’ve got two…not sure where they came from though. One’s on RCA Victor (Swquentiae: Gregorian Chant/K. Ruhland [GD 71953]), the other on ProArte (Gregorian Chants * Ruhland [CDD 287]). Got ’em as presents a while ago. Oh, that first album should be Sequentiae. Can’t type…<grin>
