As a 63-year-old German with a passion for good old disco music I am desperately seeking for stuff like this. I am both, grateful for this exceptionally well produced session and stunned by the kewl and fine mix. Plus, Varist seems to not have the affection of putting him atop everyone else in the room, but heading for bringing everybody into a groove. Delicious 💗🤙 Liked and subscribed 🤝

@djvarist 5 ай бұрын

Not being the center of attention is one of the things that drew me to Book Club! Obviously, that's not the case from the video perspective, but in the room, it's very much playing what you think people will love and then letting them get on with dancing to it. Thank you for the kind words. They're appreciated.

Spotify effect. (Start Gen X nostalgic mode). When you get 256 guilders a month (study allowance) and a CD costs 40 guilders on average and a night out about 20 to 30, each CD was cherished. And artists consider(ed) a CD a one-piece artwork. Songs were and are carefully aragend one by one to optimize the listeners' experience, with or without gaps, for instance. Nowadays, modern CD players don't even support the full Redbook standard anymore, so CD'S that are supposed to play gapless get unintended gaps added. Slowly but surely, we are leaking so much quality from the world. (End Gen X nostalgic mode). BTW, talking about guilders, does anybody know that the hole in a CD can be perfectly filled in with an old Dutch "dubbeltje", a piece of Philips pragmatic engineering.

@bookclubradio 6 ай бұрын

I think it really depends on the style of music, you see older open format DJs spinning between songs chorus to chorus, and younger techno DJs playing out a 9 minute track. At the end of the day it's all about building an atmosphere and testing what your dance floor can handle.
