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.
