Happy New Year Everyone!
This set was compiled out to you in my recent quick stay in San Francisco this week. It was going to be the last time for a while that I would be able to visit my friends since my schedule for travel this year with the new art job is kind of hectic. Its a great way to start the year however.
So looking back at 2011, I noticed a lot of the shows were incredibly mellow, and definitely heavy on the electrolust, gorgeous, and sleepyhead sets. Granted this is where I'll still be doing shows, but this show kind of sets the intentions for the BNB for the rest of the year. These intentions are:
- More remixes of retrospective tracks. (Ex: Morgan Geist remixing Wham, Remix of Bjork's "Venus as a Boy")
- Search for some amazing female vocalists in the chillwave, blues, and shoegaze, and dance sectors (Ex: Lana Del Ray Remix)
- More dubstep, something OTHER than Burial (kind of obsessing on 'Sorrow' right now)
- Not fearing to bring old tracks back up on the set from the beginning years of the BNB (ex: Tensnake RMX of Junior Boys)
- More covers (ARE YOU KIDDING ME with Nancy Whang singing for Holy Ghost!'s cover of MINISTRY's "I Wanted to Tell Her" off of their epic 80's album "With Sympathy"? That was my ANTHEM in my young young youth)
How does that sound? Good? Hope SO! Happy 2012 ya'll.
