There’ll be a proper post on what happened at NRGetic Romancer before too long, but a few videos were taken of the regulars doing their thing, and I couldn’t pass these up in the meantime.

First we have Detch doing some glowswording with the light sabre-things that usually come out near the end of each Romancer. He’d never used them before, but somebody passed both to him and he improvised this (!) while Android Lime’s remix of Hannya X plays in the background. His glowsticking seems to have gone up a few more levels on the amazing scale too, but no videos of that yet.

Thanks to DJ Aemi I’m playing at another event next month – Muon (Dream Sound) in Roppongi. Muon began as a mainstream event, playing house, trance etc, but next year will see ‘version 2’ kick in with harder genres all the way. There will be a ‘sub-floor’ with the old style event happening there, which might be a good way to get a few more folk in (even if they don’t know what on earth’s going on when they get to the main floor).

I’m proud to be on the lineup for this first event, and looking forward to it a lot – Aemi and the other organisers have said that high bpms aren’t a problem, so I’ll be going all-out with 170bpm+ Japanese/Finnish style. After J-Mx’s Itachi the other day, it’s great to see that DJ 490 will be playing too, very much looking forward to his set. It should be a really interesting mix of genres, here’s the info from the flyer:

I’m trying to do a million things at once this week, and don’t really know what sort of thing I’ll be playing – hopefully it’ll fall into place on the night….

One more thing – if you check the Schedule section there’s a new gig up (on the 22nd of next month). More info coming soon!
