Logical Aggression at Ground Kontrol Arcade has come and gone again. This month DJ Megaphysics and I played a wide variety of tunes, with a few special nods to the great Andrew Weatherall.

I took the first slot of the night, playing from 9:00 PM until about 11:30 PM. Here's my tracklist:

Megaphysics took over here, playing a set featuring new tracks by Nathan Micay and Minor Science, and a bunch of Weatherall tunes. Here's what he played:

Thanks as always to everyone who came out and listened, and to Ground Kontrol for having us. Shoutout to fellow arcade DJ Proqxis for hanging out and keeping us company.

DJ Megaphysics and I played our regular show at Ground Kontrol Arcade last night, the first of 2020. It was good! Megaphysics took the first half of the night, opening at 9:00 PM. Here's what he played:

I took over at 11:30 with a mixture of electro and IDM, drawing from my recent aNONradio shows. A lot of tracks from CPU Records. Here's my list:

It's pretty funny that we both played Electronome's V = for Viewlexx. Go figure that the one time we step on each other it's with an old Electronome track. We had a good laugh about that after the show.

Thanks to everybody who hung out and listened to the music, and thanks as always to Ground Kontrol for having us. Shoutout to DJ Popcorn for talking shop past midnight.

Megaphysics and I played our last show of the year at Ground Kontrol Arcade last night. (The last Wednesday in December falls on the 25th, so no show that day). It was the day before Thanksgiving, we had a good crowd, and it was a pretty good show.

I brought a mixture of drum & bass, electro, footwork, and synth-y stuff. There are parts of MTT143 and MTT079 in this, as well as the Lightspace to Dŵr Budr mix from MTT141. Here's my tracklist:

Megaphysics took over at 11:30, playing a selection of electro, techno, UK garage, and drum & bass (featuring a bunch of new purchases from the excellent Western Lore label). Here's his tracklist:

Thanks to everybody for coming out, thanks (as always) to Ground Kontrol for having us, and thanks to Megaphysics for helping me while away the early morning hours. As mentioned above there won't be a Logical Aggression show in December, as that day falls on the 25th. We'll be back in January.

Another last Wednesday has come and gone, and that means another show at Ground Kontrol Arcade. It was the day before Halloween, so DJ Megaphysics and I dug up some spooky stuff for the evening.

Megaphysics played the first half of the night, presenting a diverse selection of disco, hip-hop, rock, synthpop, and soundtracks. Here's his tracklist:

I took over at 11:30-ish, playing mostly electro. This set ended up being a combination and variation of what I've been doing on the radio over the month. Anyway, here's my tracklist:

And that's a wrap. Thanks to everyone who came out, and to Ground Kontrol for having us. Special shoutout to mnw@sdf for coming by and chatting; wish we could've hung out more. I'll be looking for some recent gabber releases for you.

Megaphysics and I played our regular monthly night at Ground Kontrol Arcade yesterday. There was no theme this time, so we riffed on what we've been listening to.

I took the first half of the night, playing electro, IDM, techno, and maybe a little house. Here's my playlist:

Megaphysics took over at this point. Here's what he played:

And that's it! It was a good night. Thanks to Megaphysics for holding it down, to everyone in attendance for hanging out, and to Ground Kontrol for having us.

Logical Aggression @ Ground Kontrol / August 2019

Megaphysics and I played our regular night at Ground Kontrol Arcade last night! Another August bass night at the arcade come and gone.

Megaphysics took the opening slot; here's his tracklist:

I played the second half of the night. Here's my list:

(Yes, I did play Listen To The Music by Techmaster P.E.B. twice. My mistake, I wasn't paying attention. It's sort of funny in retrospect.)

Lots of good music here; 86 tracks in under five hours. We were both moving at a pretty good pace. Most of my set was drawn from this month's MTT radio shows. Megaphysics played a lot of stuff I'd never heard before, I believe he's been digging for bass out in the shops in PDX.

Thanks once again to everybody hanging out and listening, and to Ground Kontrol for having us.
