NuJazz and downtempo styles. I was now starting a residency on both Thursday and Saturday nights at The Bungalow, a lounge on 17th Avenue in Calgary. It was a hedonistic little place, and Sonic and I crammed it every week with sweaty, drunk partygoers looking to let loose and listen to the sexy sounds.

Sublight: “Golgotha”
Here’s a track that’s 8 years old but hasn’t really seen the light of day before. Dark business for dark days.
Sublight: “If Thoughts Were Angels” DJ set
Here’s some thinking-space music for you this morning. It also has its beautiful moments. Enjoy.
Sublight: “Inner Reason” DJ set
A melange of 80’s, downtempo, 90’s, 70’s and who knows what. The common thread is emotional meaning.
Sublight: “Dirt Cycle” DJ set
One of the more diverse sets in my back-catalogue. This one circles the map more than a few times and brings in some unusual spoken word content.
Sublight: “Odd Dough” DJ set
Funky business.
Sublight: “Chill Minutes” DJ set
A bouncy interlude.
Sublight: “Trip Hop Minutes” DJ set
Cutting & scratching until it hurts.
Sublight: “Logopolis” DJ set
For those of you who know Doctor Who, this might make sense (up to the 101 Dalmations and whale song bits anyhow…). Recorded on 3 turntables, a VCR and two CDJ’s.
Sublight: “Bubble Dubs & Scrapes” Classic DJ set
Jungle records played at 33 instead of 45rpm create deep, dubby breaks that I could never resist. A technique I learned first from Nat [RIP] way back in ’94.
