Kind of a last-minute set which kind of works in my favor sometimes, because I don’t overthink things. Hence, I went in a lot of different directions, but kept trying to bring it back to jazz. Even the hip-hop choices had strong jazz influences, and only once did I really stray into 80s indie.

This was a delightfully late set, with a generally laid-back and mellow vibe. Lots of long jazz tracks, but also a lot of my usual eclectic mix.

Well I had a record skip on me, and at one point I left a fader up, so I’m not posting the recording this time. Nevertheless, lots of folks came down to wish me an early Happy Birthday, and I was thrilled with some of the cuts I dug up, so I’d consider the set a resounding success.

An all-vinyl set, I did encounter one skip during a Replacements track, so I will evidently have to find a … new copy of the record. Kind of all over the place in this set, by the third and fourth hours it settles down and you could probably get to bed by the end!
