ABL:Radio - Simply Superstitious - Mixed by Adam Smith

| | Comments (12)

Superstitious2 What could be full of more spook and superstition than a Friday the 13th in October? Maybe this dark and lovely mix by our own Adam Smith!

Over his last few episodes, Adam has really been cranking a trove of auriferous DJ sets (here and here ). This mix is no exception. We have new stuff, remixes of industrial classics, dark analog synths, experimental Detroit electro, a little Magda and the eerie sounds of Prins Thomas and Lindstrøm. Trust us, you will not be disappointed with this installment of ABL:Radio. So, what better way to overcome your paraskavedekatriaphobia and exorcising all those demons with this musical brew?

While scanning Wikipedia I uncovered this dreary "fact" concerning the origins of Friday 13th superstitions:

There have been a number of events known as "Black Fridays" in history. Usually, these events are devastating. Some historians propose that the origin of the "Black Friday" was the simultaneous arrest of hundreds of Knights Templars on October 13, 1307 (Friday), to be later tortured into admitting heresy.

Yikes! That's enough to scare the be-jeebus outta ya... Anyway... umm, enjoy the mix!

Nice. I was listening to this at a low volume not having looked at the tracklist and at some point thought to myslef..."gee, self...if this was 1990 or so, I'd be thinking of early Ministry hmm, oh well" Then when I heard the unmistakeable headhunter, I had to look at the tracklisting. Works really well; I've been waiting for someone to do this!!! :) Now if I can only get Robert Smith to do vocals over the Booka Shade/M.A.N.D.Y. and the like, all my dreams will come true. :P

Tracklisting is DOPE! I ran to 242 this morning ;)

I feel dark and evil already.....

Any mix with no less than six Stinson/Donald tracks is a mix after my heart!

FYI, Adam will be DJing at Double Happiness in LES next Saturday night. (10/22)

Finally Adam goes dark and dirty! ;)

Adam said:

Awww thanks guys! You know the evil lurks behind my seemingly pleasant demeanor.

Dennis said:

Oh, I know! Just give that man some wiskey! If the evil doesn't come out, at least you get a slo-mo break dancing session ;)

i love this mix, comes in with all the right energy!
