Waiting for the Rainbow
from New Dj Set · host Andrea Vella
During this period, when I stay closed among the four walls of my home, Time gave me the possibility to magnify my parameters and units of measurement. Everything has become longer, more available, more possible. This how my new dj set came to live. Almost three hours of an interrupted sound flow. It’s strange. Despite my intention was to create a 1.5h dj set imprinted on jazz, the further I was going into the selection of different tracks, the clearer the House imprinting was. Sounds like Latin Caribbean, Disco, Deep, Funk, Blues, Afro, Jazz, Soul sneaked in – all of them representing different facets of House Music. It is hard to build something that works out well, that is various, yet stays organic and coherent and lasts more than the classical 90 min dj set. The greatest Djs play also 10h sets, yet I am not a great Dj. The popular and famous Djs play 1h and then it’s time to go to bed. Enough, otherwise the trick will be discovered. Yet I am not even famous, even less - popular. Nonetheless, I know Music and I love it. It might be you won’t be able to “drink this cocktail” at one shot. Maybe you will need to sip it gradually. On the other hand, listening and re-listening it, I have realized that it works well both all at once and in pieces. That’s thanks to its various souls. I wanted to be that way. Almost exhausting at times. Exactly like this quarantine – sometimes exhausting, and yet inspirational and full of new opportunities. As the future itself. Waiting for the storm to end. Waiting for the new life. Waiting for the rainbow. PS. I swear the next dj set will be jazz
