A cocktail bar and restaurant on Division Street in Portland.
A set featuring funk, new wave, soul, and psychedelic rock, mixing timeless classics with deep cuts and unexpected gems.
This set weaves together funk, psych rock, new wave, and global grooves, mixing deep cuts and classics with a laid-back, eclectic energy.
Somewhat mellow for a Friday Night but the set felt really solid because I’ve spent pretty much three weeks working on the tracks. Very much going for a 70s soul vibe, but tried to mix in plenty of surprises and different sounds. (This also turned out to be my last set for a long time because of Covid.)
Somehow I seem to have performed for more than six hours, which doesn’t even seem technically possible. I would describe this as post-punk, funk, rock, and global sounds.
This was a digital set for 5 1/2 hours on a Friday Evening.
Though fighting off a flu, our hero performed a digital set for more than four hours, to the thrills and amazement of the crowd. You can listen to the whole set here!
Another fine set performed at Double Dragon for approximately 4.5 hours. All records, so the quality is a bit challenging at times, but the mix was fun and the crowd was small but happy. The playlist fuses post-punk, garage rock, psych, indie, and funk, balancing cult classics and deep cuts with an energetic, genre-blurring vibe.
"It's a new year and Disarray returns to Tuesdays at @doubledragonpdx. Come have a snack, a drink, and listen to an eclectic variety of delightful music. Tomorrow night 6pm - Late!"
"Stop by tonight for a battle between the shoegazing department, the lounge section, the punk unit, the soul sector, and the rock division. And one lone Christmas record I’m sneakin’ in. All vinyl. 6pm - late @doubledragonpdx … see you there!"
A set performed at Double Dragon for approximately 4.5 hours. The goal was mainly a large variety of sounds, and plenty of noise.
This set blends cosmic jazz, psychedelic rock, post-punk, and eclectic grooves, spanning everything from deep funk and moody indie to vintage synths and experimental soundscapes.
I was particularly proud of this set. It had some of my best transitions to date. And I really tried to stretch myself to connect the dots of as many different records and genres as I could. On the walk to the gig, I started a note on my phone of a bunch of songs that would string together well, and while I didn’t end up using quite everything on the list, it was a super helpful starting point.
