dj chris widman - mutek mix 2012

i've been meaning to post this online for a while, but the 30th anniversary of metro/smartbar chicago got me in the mood. it's a live mix (or mashup as the kids say nowadays) of two very long songs that i discovered go together quite well: ORBITAL's "impact USA" + SYSTEM 7 "alphawave (plastikman rmx)". from the end of a long ABSTRACT SCIENCE djs set opening up for BOOKASHADE in 2009. honored that one my most inspired DJ moments happened at the METRO! happy birthday metro smartbar! congratulations from abstract science + thanks to JOE, CHRIS, JOE, LENNY, NATE, KYLE, JAMES, ORI, BRAD, MICAH, TODD, RODERICK, JENNY, STEVE, RYNE, ADAM, JOHN + all the great staff we've worked with over the years.

Chris Widman is a Chicago DJ that defies easy classification. Host of the weekly radio program Abstract Science (since 1997 and a DJ since 1995), he is at the forefront of breaking new styles, crossing genres and re-introducing forgotten music. Whether DJing for the dancefloor or the armchair, Widman is known for his adventurous mixing of dubstep, techno and everything else, creating his own form of crowd-pleasing sonic warfare.

Abstract Science airs Thursdays 10pm-2am CT on WLUW-Chicago 88.7fm.
