Brass Monkey/Beastie Boys Push it/ Salt N Pepper I can see it in Your Face/Pretty Lights Total Fascination/Pretty Lights Coleen/ The Heavy Thunder Forward & Backward/Sound Effects Second set creeps in with 1, 2 Freddy’s coming for you and Friday the 13th. This plays into the theme of the party; Bobby “Boris” Pickett and the Crypt-Kickers/Monster Mash, a timeless classic and just a really cool song. Following the intros, I wanted to slowly bring in some hip hop style beats. The Prophet (by Gramatik) is an awesome remix of Marvin Gaye’s Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler.) It starts off just like the original and when the beat drops it puts the crowd right in that groove. Following is another song by Gramatik that speaks for itself. Narrowing down so many songs to make this thirty minute second set, I decided on Unbelievable, because it is probably my favorite B.I.G. song and it goes great with I’m doing my thang. Brass Monkey and Push it are big bass rockers that never let anyone down and it’s always fun to play the old school; especially when it’s a theme party. Popping right in is change of pace with, I can see it in Your Face and Total Fascination (by Pretty Lights.) I’m not sure what everyone else thought about these two songs, but I think they were banging. (If you thought those songs were good and you haven’t seen Pretty Lights Live they ROCK! Defiantly check them out.) Total Fascination is the highlight song of this set. I love how it flows and after all the craziness the last minute slows down to an awesome keyboard bells type sound. After all the upbeat sounds, dropping Coleen (by The Heavy) seemed perfect to me. I love how it comes in with that heavy beat and the lyrics are great as well. It also has that hip hop type sound to finish of this set with some of the same type of sounds it started with. I also liked bringing back a song from a band to get everyone ready to here Sunday Best ROCK! (Defiantly check them out as well!!!) Thunder Over and Out...
