DJ: Guest: 033: Autonomy – 07-March 2009
The night itself was very busy indeed, with healthy dancefloors for much of the night and a good mix of music.

Last night was immense fun, my set at Autonomy appears to have gone down very well (even though I’m not totally happy with what I played, I pretty much kept a good dancefloor for much of it), and roll on next time.
The longest distance I’ve travelled just to DJ was to Aberdeen, and the club venue, the Tunnels, was a strange little underground venue with two rooms (and pretty poor soundproofing between the two, oddly enough.
Rob – long-time friend and occasional DJ at tcf, left Sheffield for London (and I would follow suit a year or so later), so we threw a party, and I was one of the DJs.
A third set at Corporation, where I was joining L8N to DJ in the SyN room for the night. Turnout wasn’t great – although being the weekend after Infest and Reading/Leeds, it never really was going to be – but it was good fun to DJ to who was there – and the reaction I […]
My first DJ appearance at Infest, on the main dancefloor. The second set was straight after Front 242. Full review here.
This was my first night DJing Autonomy, that started a run of a few years of me being “resident guest” at the night.
DJing at Devastator was great fun – a reasonable turnout and a fair number of enthusiastic punters made for DJ sets that weren’t as challenging as I had first thought they might be. Although it was interesting to note the differences to the Sheffield crowd, with a marked slant towards Death Metal and Thrash more […]
Genotype last night was good fun.
Last night was utterly, utterly insane. In all of the best possible ways. DJing at the Wendyhouse 10th Birthday last night provided me with one of the biggest buzzes of my life, and nearly floored me in the process, as many of you who saw me inbetween DJ sets will attest. The metal room seemed […]
.Sideshow Symphonies last night was interesting. Everything was running rather late, so I got home later than I would have liked, but with me having pretty much free reign to play what I wanted, I decided to go in a particular direction…
Probably one of my favourite DJ sets ever, this was the Jim Henson Judder. So everyone dressed as Muppets. And Fraggles.
A second August visit to SyN.
Modulate made their live debut, and I was asked to DJ the night.
Redshift last night was an interesting experience. The turnout wasn’t bad – a good mix of leedsgoths and further afield, with a few “normals” mixed in that appeared to look somewhat uneasy. DJing was a little tough in trying to find a happy medium to please everyone, but at least with my set I think […]
As it happens, last night was far more fun than I had perhaps feared. Yes, both myself and Organica played some real cheese, but it was damned good fun playing to a different audience than the norm. Thanks to all that came down, and great to see a number of people that I have not […]
Last night at Dark Matter was great fun. It was really quite busy, too, which always helps. Thanks to Raziel for inviting me along, it was a blast.
Corp was an utter blast, even if was nearing totally wasted by the end of my second set (and to my shame not realising ’til today that I played one song twice). Oops. Thanks to all that came along to support me.
The Batfink Midsummer Nightmare last night was damned good fun, with a great-looking turnout (both in numbers and in how they all looked), loads of people I’d not seen in ages, and a few people I had not met before, either…and the only downside being not enough time to catch up with them all!
…onto Judder for a good five hours plus of madness – then sleep, food and a wander ’round town, then back up to Sheffield at nearly the corresponding time that we left at yesterday.
