Not only did it rain again, but it was also the first night of Passover - so those who are Jewish and those who are afraid to get wet had reason to miss the delectable evil that is Sindustrie. I started my set around 11:20 with the orchestral theme to Exodus, which I played as a deliberate break in mood – a sign that something different was about to begin. The film Exodus is about the founding of the state of Israel, so it seemed appropriate – both for the Jewish holiday and the eternally rising hostility in that area of the world. The next 14 tracks are roughly the same speed, and meshed well together – especially "One of our Submarines" into "Bring Your Love Down", which are in the same key. Both "Bitches" and the Tomas Diablo track "Rumour Mambo" sample Siouxsie’s "Happy House", so I played all three together. The mood was also somewhat calm and relaxed that night, unlike the previous week, so the majority of the rest of my set was under 110 bpm.

Okay. So, if it’s neither raining nor a Jewish holiday next week, I expect to see you all there.
