Interesting. KDJ did a "Prince Party" at OSLO (Detroit) last weekend. He put up a translucent screen in front of the booth to obscure his identity. The set was excellent. Most memorable was the a very long edit of JAN with a much longer excerpt of the Prince/Mojo interview. Great night.
This Saturday was a free 3 hour D May set in the recently expanded Orchestra Hall. Sweet set-up with Derrick on the second floor of a three floor atrium--with partiers above, bellow and all-around. Meanwhile Minx and Strand tore it up in an adjacent room. Best of all--no smoking inside the facility! Peace, Scott Then Moodymann took his turn sporting a freaky halloween mask, his afro all blowed out huge, and it was a Rick James (R.I.P.) love fest.. he started with 'You and I' and played it start to finish, then later 'Cold Blooded' (god i love that percussion on a big system) and lots of cool disco, also Moscow Discow, rolling stones 'Miss You' (!), the 3-Chairs 'Theme' (also featured on their new 3xLP which is great, BTW)... prince - controversy (w/ everyone singing the "people call me rude, i wish we all were nude" part, hah), anyway if you like dirty disco and detroit house and occasional italo and dusty dance oddities, these guys deliver. Though I usually have no idea what these guys are playing, KDJ seemed to stick to some of the more recognizable cuts but this was fine with the crowd to be sure. peace -- Matt MacQueen http://SonicSunset.com
