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 beyond 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 hosting since time eternal
- “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 toughest 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 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 just like the way he mixes
- Talvin Singh – for the permission to fuse genres
- “Weird Al” Yankovic – for the larfs
