Must Be The Beer

I had an interesting experience DJing in Portland, OR last night. It was similar to something I once witnessed at a gig in Ghent, Belgium. The more wild, crazy, hard & heavy I was willing to go with the music, the more the crowd responded and danced. The opposite is generally the norm in Chicago, Boston, and really most places…

I’m headed to a New Years Eve party in Brooklyn tonight and was asked if I had a danceable version of “Auld Lang Syne” to drop at midnigt. I didn’t.

DJ C @ Beat Research

The Bassic party at Goodlife rocked! Thanks to all those who came out and danced, and to Jam2 and Dabu for holding down the decks with me. At the end of the night the lights came on but the crowd was not done, and neither was I, so it’s to be continued this Monday night at the Beat Research party,…
