Entering the ... Flux Vortex

It's been a while, time to dust the cobwebs off this blog. New night, here in Birmingham. Especially for those that love cyber, trance, raves and all things glowy and dancy.

It's not an 'industrial' night... but instead a place honouring 25 years + of hard dance music. Including but not limited to; Trance, Hardcore, Hardstyle, electronica and techno.

Found the first friday of the month at Eddies in Birmingham. Hosted by TK and co hosted by myself

Odyssey

Another night for your calendars folks. Ebm, trance, hardcore, hard style, electro  and all things bouncy and stompy. To take place on the 10th August and Eddies in Birmingham. Its a one off night with a prospect for more in the future. 5 DJ's all turning out fun tunes ranging from the well known to the obscure.  Why not pop down and see what all the fuss is about. Great for Cybers, gravers and ravers alike. Get your stomp on!

Dystopia - May 11th 2012

Proceeding another night behind the Decks in Eddies I finally have time now to post up the playlist from Dystopia May 11th of this year.

I thoroughly enjoy DJing and as I have found out, thanks to a friend of mine, I will be DJing in various new venues over the coming year, this news makes me happy as although Eddies is a good club its good to go to different places and I will be back there soon for another DJ session.

Date change

Previously I sated that I was DJing the goth set at Dystopia in June, this has been changed now to the May dystopia. Which works out fine as I have that hole weekend free anyway (except the Saturday evening) where I will be present at the goth ball. I have missed that place quite a lot.

Twisted will be restarting again soon which is good if I didn't mention it befor I have now.
So see you all in May

Return to work

Of late I have been busy, sorting out new venues etc for twisted, I uni, work, the usual but I have not vanished and did not surcombe to complete idolness whilst Internet went down. Proceeding my break I have undertaken seeking out new haunting grounds on which to DJ, and I have found several. More details of each to follow but initially and for this post I shall announce that I will be DJing the goth/post-punk/batcave/dark wave/80's set for Dystopia in June which should be fun and gives me a chance to teach my better half the ropes as he wants to start DJing.
So yea, I think you should be there

Twisted Starts again

I have recently been told that the night where I am resident DJ is re-opening this year. Details of dates and venues have yet to be released but already I am looking very much forward to it. All updates on it shall be kept up to date and I hope to see some new faces there. So next night its running come along for some wonderful fetish fun and a blend of 80's/90's/batcave/deathrock/darkwave and stompy electro/psytrance/techno/industrial/ebm

bulC norT - 26th August 2011

A different night I suppose... not quite what I expected (except the turnout), very small amount of people out though that was due to infest being on at the same time and thus.... myself and Doka Chapman ended up DJing a replacement night for the knowned cyber/ebm night that occurs at Eddies on the last saturday of the month. It was an okay night. Oddly Doka asked me to play Tradgoth/Batcave/Deathrock as opposed to the nights usual ebm/electro and industrial. A bit odd but I got more people on the dancefloor than his ebm set did so I'm not complaining. I really want to thank everyone who came out and danced, it really made it a good night.

My playlist for that night was (more mainstream due to the crowd) as always * for requests;

Sisters of Mercy - Floorshow
Paralysed Age - Nocturne
Clan of Xymox - Liberty
Rosetta Stone - Ruination
Alien sex fiend - Now I'm Feeling Zombified
Nosferatu - Keepers Call
Bauhaus - She's in Parties
Suspiria - Allegedly Dancefloor Tragedy
Sixousie and the Banshees - peek-a-boo
The Mission UK - Deliverance

****************************
Part 2
Wolfsheim - Once in a lifetime *
The Fear Cult - Safety Dance
Type O Negative - She Burned Me Down
B-52's - Rock Lobster
Abney Park - Airship Pirates
Sopor Aeternus - Leeches & Deception
Killing Joke - Love Like blood
The Cure - Lovecats
Sister's of Mercy - Dominion(Mother Russia)
Angels and Agony - Forward
