Playlist: Down at The Golden Dawn on Friday from 5-8pm

I love playing records down at The Golden Dawn when in Auckland and last week provided such an occasion. So based around the setlist I have made this playlist. I was there playing records from 5-8pm, the curtain-raiser, the warm-up, I like that spot. A few drinks and of course what goes well with that? […]

DJ Setlist: The Golden Dawn, 5-8pm Shift, Friday, September 8

It’s always lovely to be back at The Golden Dawn and playing some records – as I was just the other day, on Friday night, early shift – 5pm-8pm, setting up the evening, sending off the afternoon. I decided I’d try to play all 7s. And that was generally what happened. A couple of newer […]

DJ Setlist: The Golden Dawn, 8-11pm Shift, Friday, November 18, 2016

Love, love, love playing records at The Golden Dawn. So I was back up in Auckland for a good mate’s birthday – and some podcast business too – and I booked myself in for another round of records at about the best bar ever! You can pretty much play what you want – and I […]

DJ Setlist: The Golden Dawn, 5-8pm Shift, Friday, February 26, 2016

Good to be back at The Golden Dawn and here again to play some records. I love this place. The best bar/venue in the country currently…as far as I’m concerned. The correct vibe. And killer-good toasties! So I was playing some tunes, as many records as I could conceal on a plane, one bag, one […]

Playlist: Some Songs I Played At The Golden Dawn One Time

One of my favourite things I did last year – was play a bunch of records at The Golden Dawn as part of a trip up to Auckland to visit some family. It was a great long weekend and I really loved that Golden Dawn place and had a blast playing some records there. It […]

DJ Setlist: The Golden Dawn, 8-11pm Shift, Saturday, October 24

Up to Auckland for the weekend – the cancellation of Soulfest was a bummer, but hey, plenty of things to do. Including, for me, a DJ set – at The Golden Dawn, my first time even visiting that establishment. Great venue. Great bar – kick-ass set by The Shifting Sands (that I managed to catch […]
