DJ Krush Support set (Canberra)

I play a bit of electronica tinged hip hop and speak a bit of Japanese so it was pretty appropriate to get to support my hero, DJ Krush! At my wedding in February, we walked down the aisle to Dj Krush’s “Final Home” (the piano mix) too so it made it pretty poetic, sorta, too.

Poor Krush was a bit stunned because his support rocked up, was a girl, spoke Japanese and told him enthusiastically about getting hitched to one of his songs, (in Japanese). He was bewildered but stoked. When one of the turntables buggered out, he was cool enough to let me use one of his for the remainder of the set too. After my set, he said my tunes were great, high-fived me and clapped me in front of the crowd. I still feel a little glowy…

He then pulled out an awesome set and was such a generous performer and truly the master. Thanks to Landspeed for making a dream come true. Now I just need to support Shadow and Tipper and my list is done!

From the lovely review from BMA:

“We arrived to find the lush sounds of ex-Canberran Bec Paton doing a warm-up set that, had it been louder, and she not a support DJ, would have been more than enough entertainment for one night. Her sublime mixing of records that would pose problems to the most talented of selectors formed a beat-laden, diverse, bass-y and beautiful introduction to the night - which was only slowed by quickly rectified turntable problems - and seemed like a tribute to all Krush is about: gorgeous sounds juxtaposed by drums-of-death.”

[...] DJ Krush Mix is from supporting him in Canberra in May this year and has the little anecdote that made me ridiculously happy. [...]
