atish - [016] - july 2011 - a snapshot of how i feel - live in tahoe

In June, my friends and I rented a beautiful house near the water in Lake Tahoe. At the time, I had a lot stuff going through my head that I was trying to sort out and make sense of. So I ate some special treats, walked around the woods for a couple hours, hopped on the decks and recorded this set. I think this is the finest I've ever played live and the best mix I've released thus far. When I started DJing a little over a year ago, I originally thought this little hobby was a technical skill, not an emotive art. The more I played in front of people, the more I quickly learned that building and understanding the emotional relationship between DJ and audience is just as important as track selection and mixing ability. In this case in Tahoe, I didn't have an audience (except my friends in the family room playing video games)…I was playing for myself instead of a crowd, so this recording is a direct representation of how I felt. Hence the title, "a snapshot of how i feel" SIS - Break Down Daniel Bortz - Boyz 2 Men Dixie Yure - Mum Roll Maceo Plex - Her Security Vincenzo - The Clearing Tigerskin - Feel for You 6th Borough Project - Back To Me Mic Newman - The Fidelity Pitto - Ceiling In Paris feat.
