Anyone with experience spinning art shows?

[Damien1138]

Hey all, I booked a gig spinning an art show in North Hollywood and I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with these. The show will feature alot of photography and light sculptures as well as street art. The floorplan lends itself to a dance floor infront of the stage but I'm trying to figure out what genre to go with.... I'm known in the area for Electro and DnB, but I'm not sure if that would be a good idea for an art show, or maybe I'm just overthinking it and getting paranoid for no reason. Any thoughts or ideas?

can go wrong with electro, I did a art show not too long ago, and it went well with the art. Plus they were doing live art (graff) so I busted out some breaks.

Evol intent, Noisia, Black Sun Empire, Spor, Bad Company, Total Science - lolz

Nah seriously though - whats the average age of the people who will be attending ?

[Damien1138]

Demographic is apparently 18-30 for the core group with about 300-400 wanderers throughout the night (numbers from the last show). BTW, why haven't we met up yet JesC? =)

BTW, i was actually thinking of some Evol Intent, but mostly their older stuff like Watch Over Them or the Ladies; nothing too hard tho

Yeah, minimal, breaks, electro...

Check out Marching Dynamics, Twinkle, Hansel, DJ? Acucrack (specifically So To Speak (KMFDM Remix), Android Lust, and Collide.

And some other stuff. Mellow shit, y'know?

Damien dont you live in the valley, chatsworth? Man thats far, I have better chances of meeting up with Bento or Tekki j/k we sould meet up one of these days. I work in glendale so maybe we could meet up at a coffee shop or at the mall

I am thinking minimal would be the way to go, if you wanna spin dnb make it really really low key and stick to atmospheric stuff.
