Phillip Toledano - Days with My Father

Phillip Toledano - Days with My Father (Click on the bottom of each picture to move to the next one)

Via Faisal.

This touches me deeply. My father died 1992, and I wish I had some similar sort of time with him in his last days. I hadn’t, because we were angry and disappointed with each other. We were fools.

He loved his collection of watches and his Mercedes Benz S Class, his business, his suits, his Mont Blanc pens, his Sundays at the horse races, his meetings with business ‘friends’ and his all-over luxury. I would have loved a single sentence by him like “I’m proud of you my son, for what you are and what you are not”, but all I ever heard was “you’re not good enough”.

I’m 35 years old, and I look exactly like him when he was 35. This is all we ever shared and all we share now.

Things some don’t know about DJing

DJing might look like an easy job. Sometimes I hear stuff like:

Hey, what’s so difficult about playing some music out?

Here’s why it’s a bit more than hitting a venue and playing music like average Joe could do:

  • Finding the right music: I receive around 400 to 600 promos from all kinds of labels and genres each month. I need to listen to them ALL to find MY music. 80% of it is crap, 10% supercrap, 5% good, 5% very good. I only play the 5% that I find very good. But there’s not only the work to listen to ALL the promos, there is also the browsing through the stores and it’s (mostly) crappy samples. BTW, I recommend Resonant Vibes and audiojelly. Beatport just in cases when I can’t find track XYZ elsewhere. Finding the right music is the most time eating thing of the job.
  • Sorting the right music: I label my tracks after genre, NOT by tagging but file name adding like Peter Parker - Spiderman Song (Vogelmann Remix) - PROG. Each and every genre has its own folder on my HD’s, both the studio system and the gig notebook, always in sync.
  • Touching the music: Each and every track gets slighty sound optimized by myself, like loudness correction or a bit of equalizing, I have my own scripts or batches for that processes. Each and every track gets key detected for harmonic mixing.

The above is the hidden part of my DJ job, not many people have an idea what that means. To be exact: it’s the most important part of the job because THIS IS WHAT MAKES YOU AN ARTIST under millions of DJ’s. Compare it to a painter, his colours, his brushes, his canvas and all that stuff. Then there’s his way of painting and this is the part when I’m going live.

Vogelmann Live

Let’s be honest: Beatmixing is not the hardest part of playing live. You have a bit of a rhythmic feeling? Okay, I’ll teach you in less than 2 weeks. But do you have the right ears, the right feeling for ‘what comes next’? Can you feel the audience? Is your sound right, EQing and all that stuff? When should you change the style a bit or the tempo? And what about your ‘acting role’ whilst DJing, do you have a charismatic aura or do you behave or look like an idiot? Don’t get me wrong, I find it very important to be authentic, but LIVE you’re not bedroom DJing.

A good DJ needs to be reliable with playing times and dates, needs to take care about his technical equipment and all that stuff, needs to find HIS style and satisfy HIS fans everytime he’s playing … I could write an endless list of other aspects of successful DJing. Just wanted to give you a glimpse of the background of things.

EM 2008 Security Warning by US Embassy in Germany

June 24, 2008 Warden Message

On Wednesday evening, June 25, Germany and Turkey will meet in the semifinal round of the 2008 European Football Championship in Basel, Switzerland. Various cities in Germany have set up viewing areas for the public to watch the live broadcast of this game. The “Fan Mile” in front of the Brandenberg Gate in Berlin is expected to draw up to 500,000 German and Turkish fans, Frankfurt am Main will host a public viewing area at the Rossmarkt, and Munich is setting up a large public viewing area at the Olympic Stadium where 30,000 fans are anticipated. Similar events are planned in other cities and spontaneous celebrations or demonstrations related to the match may occur throughout Germany.

Because of the high fan interest in this prestigious semi-final elimination game between Germany and Turkey, there exists the possibility that disturbances, including violent disturbances may occur before, during or after the match, which begins at 20:45. At a minimum, post-game celebrations will likely result in traffic congestion in larger cities. Crowds celebrating previous German and/or Turkish victories have blocked streets and rocked vehicles attempting to pass through them.

We remind American citizens in Germany that even mass gatherings and demonstrations intended to be peaceful can turn confrontational and possibly escalate into violence.  American citizens are therefore urged to avoid the areas of demonstrations if possible, and to exercise caution if within the vicinity of any demonstrations.  American citizens should stay current with media coverage of local events and be aware of their surroundings at all times.

Via Gilly. LOL! :D

When I talk about friends I have to mention Josh Abrams who stands very close to me. We’ve had great (but far too short) times together and rocked out like hell and such … 8-) he is a real party monster!

Josh will be my guest tonight on LIGHTWORKS. He resides in Las Vegas and is a full time DJ. His residency is www.pufflounge.com. That’s Josh in action:

Big words

panteramiranda.com

Miranda & Abraham

Miranda offers career advice to Abraham Calling in from his training camp in Puerto Rico, super middleweight contender Edison ‘Pantera’ Miranda chuckled when he was read the latest statements from his June 21st opponent, Arthur Abraham, who stated that in their highly controversial first bout in 2006, if he failed to beat a man who had his jaw broken, he would have taken a job as a night watchman. “I agree with you Arthur, if it was a one-on-one fight,” said Miranda of the first bout, one marred by questionable officiating. “Unfortunately for me, I was fighting you and the referee, and most people who saw the fight still believe I won. This time, I’m not trusting anything but my fists, and I will knock you out,” continued Miranda. “So, as a fellow competitor, I suggest that maybe you should start shopping for your patent leather shoes and uniform, because you’ll be doing that night watchman job by the end of the summer. I think you’ll be perfect for it, because when something happens, you don’t have to do anything yourself - you can just call for help. Our first fight showed that you’re good at that.”

Big big words, loser. How come you fell after the 3rd good punch by Arthur after 1:37 min. in the 4th round? I’d say: Welcome to your new job as a night watcher. :lol:

No boxer should make the mistake to underrate Arthur Abraham. Arthur will also knock out Kelly Pavlik between the 4th and 6th round next year in January or February. There is no better middleweight boxer at the moment. And Oscar de la Hoya will fall, too.
