One of my favorite transitions after four years of weekly mixes is "I Wanna Rock You" by Giorgio Moroder to "Mystic Eyes" by Polygamy Boys & Lindsay-J. You can hear that in my most recent recorded mix at https://djcev.com/2020/12/mtt-201-the-robot-is-your-friend/ .

I made it, my sober year is done. This was a tough one.
And now I'm drinking on amateur night.

2 hours and change until 2020 is over in my timezone. Surprised and glad that I'm awake to see it go.
Disco and synthpop for the last mix of 2020. Music for the New Years Eve party in my head.

It's always a huge relief to listen to a fresh audio recording and find no major mistakes. That moment when you realize you didn't mess anything up too bad.

My sober year is almost over so I just walked down to the convenience store and picked up beer. (Better to do it tonight instead of the 31st). I haven't been down there all year; it feels different. The beer is still too expensive though.

I'm tuning in tonight to the last Death Guild Monday @ DNA Lounge webcast of the year.
#goth #gothic #industrial #synthpop music played by expert DJ's:
The fourth annual Movement Through Thought tracker music mix. Late '90s, mostly XMs and ITs; breakbeat, DnB, and IDM, all on the more ambient end of the scale.
Right-click save-as here or on the spectrogram above to download this mix. This mix is also available at mixcloud.
Hey all, just a quick note to say that I've re-uploaded the 2017 and 2018 demoscene / tracker music mixes I performed for MTT on aNONradio. As of this post five such mixes are now available for download on this website:
These particular mixes are important to me so I'll keep them up as long as I can. Please forgive the many mixing mistakes in them and enjoy.

I'm trying my hand at writing dj mix show notes blogariddims style, track-by-track. Being way too verbose.
Caffeine is to blame.

Yay the new Stardew Valley update (1.5) runs fine under FreeBSD. I downloaded the Linux version and then used fnaify 2.2 to patch the game's launcher. Same procedure that I used for 1.4 and 1.3.

Happy winter solstice everybody.
I'm a little sad it doesn't fall on my birthday this year, the next time that'll happen is 2023. Won't stop me from having a good day though. Maybe I'll bake something.

Ah dang I didn't finish going through the Milk netlabel earlier this year. There's like 40 releases I still need to filter through. Illusion, Daze, more Jean9... gonna have to listen to and catalog all of it tomorrow.
Ambient, electro, and IDM floating around 120. A bunch of old favorites and a couple long tracks by Carl Finlow and DJ R21.

I'm at a weird impasse now. Past a certain point the work of "DJing" is more performance and self-promotion. I'm not a very interesting performer to watch, and I don't like promoting myself.
So I don't know what I'll do with this skill going forward. I'll keep DJing of course, keep making mixes. Beyond that it feels like time to grow sideways. Maybe that means writing music again, maybe that means writing words - music criticism.
Something to think about.
