Playlist: A 40th Birthday DJ Set

The other month I was off down south to celebrate a mate’s birthday and to be the DJ’er on the night. Well, playing music at 40ths is something that has happened to me across the last few years (funnily enough). It’s a chance to play some old favourites but to also be open to some […]

DJ Setlist: Sam’s 40th – Hawke’s Bay, Saturday, June 11, 2016

I was in charge of the music at my good friend Sam’s 40th – in charge, as in behind the decks. He’d hired them – and I had two crates of records to work through. My records but Sam had pre-selected a lot of his favourites for me to work with…our tastes quite often line […]
