Acknowledgements

Special thanks go out to the people and products that have made this project possible over the years.

I do not currently monetize any of my work, and often the setlists are a labour of love – listened to more by me creating them than anyone else at times.

To my early supporters:

  • David “SortedBoy” – for lending me quite a few MP3s, which greatly expanded my 1,000 CD catalog back in the late 90s.
  • Terri “Impybat” – support & witty commentary on old episodes and blogs
  • Steve “Gonkdroid” – for listening to every early episode, and winning all the Pez
  • Chris “Meltman” – website host for two decades before I decided to branch out on my own
  • “Blasted” Bill – for playing one of my original mixes on his radio program
  • Many others from mIRC: Heather “Moo”, Jackie “Dr. Steggy”, Jon “Bermuda”, Annie, Jen, Steph 27, and probably some others I have since forgotten.
  • My best friend and partner, Mathew, who has kept my dreams alive, even in the most challenging times, over our past fifteen years of friendship (even when I haven’t been brave enough to tell him).

Others who have inspired me early on (musicians & performers):

  • Coldcut – inspiration for making the playlists a “Megamix”
  • Dr. Demento – good music with good humour since childhood
  • Josh Wink – one of the first big DJs I saw live at a rave
  • Kula Shaker – for being my current favorite band
  • Love & Rockets – former employers, and the first band I ever obsessed over
  • Maurice Engelen – for being a part of many electronic projects I enjoyed in the 90s (Praga Khan, Lords of Acid, The Immortals, Channel X, and Digital Orgasm)
  • Paolo Garbanzo – for teaching me about “Semper Gumby” (always remain flexible)
  • Paul Oakenfold – I like the way his mixes, and he was an early inspiration
  • Talvin Singh – for the permission to fuse genres
  • “Weird Al” Yankovic – for the laughs
