Hi everyone,
This is marc garrett, who used live in Southend years ago. Now living in London.
I've suddenly got the urge to DJ again, and its all going to be vinyl.
I've got the records, the equipment and the passion to share once more what has always been the love of my life. Punk, post-punk, new wave, electronic, no wave etc - only expect to hear the best between 76-84, before bloody Band Aid!
Yeah, I've got contemporary sounds that are edgy, but I want to share the sounds from that very special period in our lives, where we can feel reclaim the grind, real grass roots music which inspired us to be who we are now.
I have even thought of a new DJ name - DJ Ha!-Ha!-Ha! (under construction).
I am Dj'ing in Sheffield at the end of August, where Cabaret Voltaire, Human League started etc, and apparently some of the Cabs will be there, which is exciting.
I am looking for places/venues (including Southend) to play all this stuff - let me know if you know of anything or wish me to DJ at a venue...
Here is an example of what to expect (remember only stuff between 76-84)
Clock DVA, Tuxedomoon, The Birthday Party, Magazine, The Clash, Public Image Ltd, Killing Joke, The Cramps, This Heat, Cabaret Voltaire, The Human League, The Bollock Brothers, Gina X, Ultravox! (with John Foxx), Fad Gadget, The Virgin Prunes, Nico, The Southern Death Cult, Wire, The Normal, (early) Simple Minds, Family Fodder, Danielle Dax, (early) Talking Heads, (early) XTC, Throbbing Gristle, The Bongos, (early) Siouxsie and the Banshees, Dalek i, (early) The Cure, Captain Beefheart, The Slits, (early) Cocteau Twins, Leather Nun, (early) Bauhaus, (early) Psychedelic Furs, Joy Division, Lene Lovich, Crass, The Dead Kennedys, (early) John Foxx, Tubeway Army, (early) The Damned. (early) Stranglers, (early) Jah Wobble, Holger Czukay, Can, The Fast Set, Bill Nelson, The soft Boys, DEVO, The Fall, Buzzcocks, (early) Gang of Four, X Ray Spex, Alternative TV, The Rezillos, Stiff Little Fingers, Holger Hiller, Television, The B-52's, Pere Ubu, The Residents, Snakefinger, The Hybrid Kids, Silicon Teens, Teenage Jesus & the Jerks, (early) Sonic Youth, James Chance/James White and the Blacks, Bush Tetras, Material, Lizzy Mercier Descloux, 8-Eyed Spy, D.A.F - oh, so much more to enjoy :-)
I can't wait!!!
Wishing you all well...
