a bit of live blogging action for everyone out there. if you happen to read this now-ish (sunday or monday), i strongly suggest tuning into the bar25 stream. i've been thoroughly enjoying it so far. i have no idea who is dj'ing but the music is good and that's enough for me as i sit in my office on a sunday afternoon trying/failing to work. i would record the stream, but i can't be bothered and my work computer is crap. so tune in or miss out. click *here* to start the fun.
thank you for the tip. bar 25 helping me usher in a beautiful saturday evening here in seattle...
ReplyDeleteLive blogging ssgs? Awesome! Thanks for pointing this out Chris, I've just fired it up ...
ReplyDeleteafter posting, i realised it is not actually live blogging, because that should involve some realtime updates, which is most likely not going to happen. but i guess this post is like abelton: semi-live...
ReplyDeleteanyway, i am thoroughly enjoying the fun down at bar25. even if i am stuck in my office in canberra.
whoever is dj'ing dropped johnny d's 'orbitalife'. every time i hear that record i want to break something. without doubt the most overplayed record this year. it drives me nuts how often it gets played. i don't even know if it is a good record or not, i just don't want to hear it. ever.
ReplyDeletestill in the office and bar25 is still going strong. but i am only surviving on caffeine... the music is still going strong. one of sherbs' complaints were the never-ending parties in berlin. while they undeniably have their darker side, i do like the sound that comes out in the later hours. things get really twisted, messy and loose.
ReplyDeletebar25 wins. i have been listening to it for 11+ hours in the office. time for me to go home and sleep. lets see if they are still awake when i get up...
ReplyDeleteok, back in the office. it is monday 9.21am in canberra, australia and in berlin, it is 1.21am. but that hasn't stopped them. bar25 is still going. strong. things sound pretty dark and twisted now. nice.
ReplyDeleteloving this set right now with tambours, masomenos and check your buddha. my kind of after party house.
ReplyDeleteHa ha, that was some awesome live-blogging, Chris!
ReplyDeleteI really hope Mediaspree is scaled down and Bar 25 survives. I'm glad I've been there anyway.
ReplyDeletethis was great, made for an unusually groovy monday. also included the best use of HAL from 2001 I've ever heard, from the scene when he's being deprogrammed: "my mind is going... I can feel it..."
ReplyDeletegenius for an after hours party...
will, I didn't hear this, but you may have bene listening to Station Rose - Dave Remixed.
ReplyDeletehey ssgs
ReplyDeletewhat is this records next to this post? the sleeve looks so good...
It's the latest Bar 25 label release: Random Skills - Puzzel
ReplyDeleteanother sunday in the office, another visit to bar25. just switched it on and so far, so good.
ReplyDeleteit's 1:30am US eastern time, so 7:30 (?) Berlin time. I'm pretty convinced this is live, because the DJ is barely holding it together. Which is pretty cool...
ReplyDeleteyep. 7:40am berlin and 3:40pm for me in canberra, australia. it is most definitely live. that is what is great about the stream - loose, no holds barred. this is what i like about the afterhours - it might get a bit mess, but it is often when the sounds are most creative and interesting.
ReplyDeleteah yes listening now
