I was watching the Mosconi Cup on Sky on Friday (crap website BTW), whilst listening to Digitally Imported. Pool, like snooker, cricket or golf is an ideal sport to watch if you’re listening to music.

First off, on Friday we got Godskitchen Radio for 17 December 2004. A set featuring Jon O’Bir and Robert Nickson:

01. Oceanlab – Satellite (Markus Schulz Remix) [Anjunabeats]
02. Ridgewalkers Feat. El – Find (Andy Moor Remix) [Baraque]
03. Markus Schulz Pres. Elevation – Clear Blue (Original Mix) [EE]
04. Audioholics – External Key (Original Mix) [EE]
05. Above & Beyond – No One On Earth (G&D Remix) [Anjunabeats]
06. Airwave – Lady Blue (Live Mix) [Bonzai Ltd]
07. Adam White & Andy Moor – White Room (Original Mix) [Liquid Asset]
08. Electrovoya – Whispers (Original Mix) [Fundamental]
09. Fictivision Vs Phynn – Escape (Phynn Remix) [Black Hole]

01. Bakke & Ljungqvist – Fanatic
02. Jose Amnesia – Heaven Drops
03. Varian – Endless Desire (Mark Otten’s Energetic Remix)
04. Digital Tension feat. Talla 2xlc – Tears Idle Tears (Thomas Datt Remix)
05. Activa feat. Aled Mann (Matt Hardwick vs. Smith & Pledger Remix)
06. Underwater – The Deep Field
07. Adam White – Ballerina
08. Carl B – All Day
09. Robert Nickson – Twisted by Design
10. Signum – Second Wave (Signum’s Signal 2004 Remake)

It’s during these mixes that I thought “gosh, I love this music. Perhaps I should become an old club junkie? Or, perhaps I should start writing music again. Full time I mean.” This is the one greatest thing that broadband and di.fm has done for me. Brought me the music I love, devoid of the commercial trance-lite that gets played by DJs who should know better. Devoid of the kiddie-pop-trance that Radio One plays. Bringing me closer to the people who make and mix the music. Bringing me closer to those that love this music too. (swoon)

If that mix wasn’t enough (and it was rather good), Digitally Imported then followed on immediately with a live video show from Club Amnesia in Sweden, celebrating Ciacomix’s 30th birthday, also featuring Mike Hunter. Unfortunately, I had to nip off to bed as I was working Saturday.

And yesterday…

Frequencies, Giorgio Ponticelli, with guests Sonic Vibe and Léon Pieket. It was Giorgio’s birthday too. He’s 25 now.

It was yesterday that I realized that I’m the only one in our block of houses, and I have keys to the other two properties, so I could have had a massive trance party. If I knew anyone that would’ve come mind, and if I had a couple of extra Squeezeboxes, amplifiers, speakers etc..

Monster dark trance track…

And I’ve just realised I can have the iTunes visualizer [it’s very spooky when it goes all red] whilst listening to a stream. Woo! (Just on one screen mind, so I can still do work on the other, confuse the people on the No. 28 who might be able to see me at work, and rip the stream to disk. Dontcha just love dual processor beasties… mmm)

[5:19pm]
Monster dark trance track… still…

It’s very spooky when iTunes goes all black too.

[5:30pm]
It’s that darn bootleg of Eric Prydz Call On Me.

[6:20pm]
And here’s my track of the day: Ridgewalker featuring El: Find (Andy Moor Remix).

[6:27pm]
It’s that Tiesto white label remix of Radiohead’s Street Spirit. Okay, it’s only using that guitar loop at the moment. But, I can spot it anywhere!

[6:30pm]
And here come the vocals. Told you.

Time to go do something else now.
