Nowhere 10 [13.09.24]

Here we are once again back to reality after escaping our psychotic world we live in run by madmen destroying our future hit after hit.  Yet there is a way to escape and it's through the love of music you can find this rare retreat.  A magical place in the middle of the countryside in the Netherlands.  Last year was so good, if you missed my set then check it out below in my SoundCloud.  This year I never thought they could improve  on how awesome it was last year but they did.  I was booked to play a 2 hour set in the Living Room, a cosy hot space in the day and a warm place at night as it tends to get very cold outside as the sun disappears.  Legend Harry AKA Lemon 8 was playing before me and kept the dance floor busy and that's very hard to do as there are always other temptations going on somewhere else to visit or check out.

Although I was booked to play for 2 hours I ended up playing for 4+ hours.  The reason being is without me knowing at the time Nick Muir who was supposed to DJ after me and close the room ended up moving to the main stage and played outside.  At the time everyone was looking for Nick.  His bag under the DJ desk had gone and we started jumping to conclusions. After about 15 minutes I got told Nick is playing on the Main Stage and I can now play until the end if I wanted to. Silly question!  Yeah of course. Suddenly I could turn the gas up and put the pedal to the metal so to speak.   As always I am prepared to play longer if needed and always have backup tracks just in case.  I really enjoy playing peak time long sets so I was in my element. The only downside is I was really looking forward to hearing Nick play.  I heard he played awesome on the big outdoor rig and in a way it worked out for both of us.   

I was hoping that a guy I know had recorded the whole night.  He said it was ok for me to have the full audio file after and then I would chop it up and separate each DJ set.  As I was about to fly I was eager to hear my set back once home, as I always love to listen again and that's why I always record my sets. I was in the airport and messaged him asking could he email me the audio file.  Then I had a reply saying really sorry it was not recorded. BOOOOOOO!!!  Apparently earlier on in the day there was a problem with the mixer.  When it got switched someone forgot to plug the recorder back in.  GUTTED!!  Live sets are always way better than studio recorded sets as there is a magic and energy that is somehow retained in a live recording.  I tend to mix harder and faster overlapping tracks more than when playing to the studio wall.    

At first I was pretty gutted.  It was such a special extended set. On the Sunday after I had so much awesome feedback from people who heard me play i was buzzing and still am.  I thought I really have to try and rerecord it.   So as soon as I was home I jumped on my computer and tried to remember what I played.  With help of some of my wifes video time stamps I think I managed to get most of the tracks correct and in the order I played them. 

The thing is the rerecording is now much longer than i actually played due to maybe one or two extra tracks.  Because I tend to play quite a bit faster than the original tempo of the tracks it's hard to gauge in advance if I had the full 4 hours worth of music or not.  Also parts of the night are a bit of a blur and as I was improvising for the last 2 hours I can't fully remember exactly what I played.  I remember the stand out tracks but not some of the newer ones I played.

As i was rerecording this i kept having visions of the whole 3 days festival it was like time travelling back and reliving the special moments.

This is really for the people who managed to stay in my room and hear me out as really they could have been tempted to leave and hear the main man Nick Muir who was now playing at the same time as me. 

So a really big thanks to all those who stuck with me for the full set.

Any feedback is welcome.
