Ahead of the 20th anniversary of Stump Juice, this is a nod to the very overlooked but vital part of a DJ's arsenal – the Warm Up spot.
Most people (usually guys) getting into DJ'ing, tend to fight for the 'glory spot', i.e any part of the 2-3 hour peak period of most club sessions. However, I soon began to realise the importance of & came to enjoy the warm up session. This time when a club's open but still empty of punters can be as valuable as time as when you've got them in the palm of your hand, whipping them into a frenzy at peak time.
I'd use this time almost as a 'digging session', locating the less-often played tracks in my box, stuff that wouldn't normally make it into a regular or peak-time set, as well as new stuff I'd acquired. I might mix, I might not; there's no 'performance pressure' like when you're in the middle of a packed out club. Any aspiring DJ should use this spot to its full advantage – established bods can use it as a 'stop & smell the flowers' moment...
love the originality and variation of styles,,, great stuff, so many flowers and so many different scents to enjoy, variety is the spice of life,, i enjoyed listening very much, especially as it got more and more jazzy, i like that very much,,,, the whole playlist was great. Thankyou Alph.
I meant to get back to this one as i only got halfway through first time around. Very ecclectic assortment of tunes. Brief areas of intensity but an overall light vibe. Nice!
Hi Alph, finally got round to listening to this - nice work (as always) sir!
