In the Booth with Willie Burns

Willie Burns, MC Kaman and I have taken full advantage of the crisp evening air, sitting outside in Jæger’s courtyard. It would still be a few weeks till we see our backyard open, but there’s a definite hint of warming weather in the air, although its still a mighty brisk -4˚C outside. We’re engaging over all manner of topics from the appeal of CDs to the benefits of Internet Yoga. Will is in a speculative mood, watching the crowd ebb and flow in and out of Jæger’s front door with the clock slowly creeping closer to his appointment with our booth. Karima and DJ Nuhhh have set the tone all night, playing the best in their back catalogue of House and Techno, and with Mike Dunn’s Freaky Motherfucker still ringing in our ears from DJ Nuhhh, Will takes to his set going through the annals of electronic music with everything from Disco to Electro to Techno making an appearance in his heavy handed mix. After leaving us gobsmacked with the final track of his set crunching through our Funktion One system upstairs, we had no other alternative but to share it with you. A few emails between the DJ and Jæger followed, with Willie Burns finally agreeing to release his set with a sentence that read…

“goddammit.. you fucker…do it..”
