Live @ Faux Club DJ Mix

Last month I did a show with Jovian (together as Disco Death) at one of our favorite venues in Chengdu, called Nu Space. This is a live house which ordinarily hosts bands and not DJs, so it was an unconventional gig for us. The venue has a phenomenal sound system and we had a lot of fun.

This mix is mostly hip hop and drum & bass, with a few surprises. It’s about 60 minutes long with 44 songs, and a tracklist below.

More Info

Aside from the event happening on a Thursday, it was from 8:30pm until 10:30pm, and in a large room with a gigantic projector screen, which was almost like being in a movie theater with no seats. It was more like being in an art gallery than an underground club, which is not the vibe we are used to.

I didn’t know exactly what I was going to play, but I had a rough outline of about 120 songs for my hour-long performance. Of that 120, I ended up playing 44 songs in about 60 minutes, which is a fast clip. I felt that a slower pace for an hour long set at 9:30pm would be boring, so I determined that I would move as quickly as I could through the hour to keep up a fast pace which would be interesting to watch and listen to.

Street Art in the Yulin Neighborhood

The Giant Panda is associated with Chengdu to the degree that you see references to it everywhere in the city. And generally it is in what feels like a ham-fisted way for local bureaucrats to clutch onto the only persistent imagery which people, near and far, relate to Chengdu. But every once in a while, you see something which is a great representative.

Chengdunese Street Art

This new art piece recently went up on the side of a concrete walk-up building in the Yulin neighborhood of Chengdu, and it’s not alone. Over the last three years, this sector of the city has become home to a lot of street art, which is sanctioned by local government.
