Sets! Sounds!. . . SOOPER!

Greetings, freunds und well-wishers,

I am happy to inform you that with the help of a tech-savvy compadre I have finally gotten two of my live sets online for your casual, passive, or active enjoyment. See the sidebar for "live sets." The first set I recorded over one year ago, in my old apartment in crummy West Los Angeles. The second one I recorded a few months ago in James's loft in ever-fragrant, ever-scenic Downtown LA. There is, as I've said 10,000 times, a new set in the works, but for now, you're stuck with these two. I will include a track listing in the next posting, particularly because this is a way to support the artists on the mixes (this hyper-possessive approach to DJing where you don't publish your set lists is a tad bit ridiculoso to moi). Also, SASradio 1 will be up in the coming weeks. Expect different sounds (re: not all tech-house and house) and some yakking from yours truly.

Look, it's a photo of the Salem Lutheran Church stand at the Minnesota State Fair, the largest state fair in the country. I sampled the egg coffee, which my parents used to make when I was growing up. For the recipe, just ask. It goes nicely with Swedish pancakes and kitschy Swedish tunes from Svensktoppar compilations.
