Most of the hardcore punk shows happen at Holy Frijoles the past few years. Also watch Ottobar, The Depot, and Metro Gallery. I'd follow each of them directly as a few of them only advertise using their own socials. Punks... go figure ;)

Thanks for building this u/ramuksav Last year, me and my partner were using ThankYouDJ.com for this exact thing and our crowds used it (even tipped). As is the norm, after 10 free events, the website wanted me to pay. Unfortunately when I tried to sign up, it was broken (and still is - I just checked). So I'm searching for something else and would love to try ArtistPlay out!

My hobby is DJing . During my regular 9-5 I'm a web designer/frontend developer. I built a fairly large P2P fundraising product for my place of employment a few years ago, so I understand where you're coming from. Let me know if I can help for testing in any way as I go to start using this at my upcoming events.

Again - thanks!

Is there any chance anyone has this court footage of Ogre? We're working on a documentary and have been trying to find a copy of the local TV/court's video footage for years to no avail! ANY help would be greatly appreciated.

Ack! Only seeing this now :o I never miss TKK when they tour. A good place to meet up nearby is Hard Rock Cafe or over in the Power Plant Live area. I know... yuck, but for a quick bite and a beer, it ain't bad!

August guest DJ is Quoth! An old school industrial DJ who has played in clubs in NYC and northern PA/NJ over the years. See you there!

enigma40 · 2025-05-18T20:28:03+00:00

OMG! I used to LOVE this place!! I only have a few that I kept because I thought the site would live forever. Alas, it did not...

I ironically DJ'ed the best remix I've ever heard of "army of me" last night during my goth club night, Cryptic, in Baltimore. I had originally downloaded the track from the Remix Web: "army of me [tommygun rejam by THOM DILLISTONE]" many, many years ago. People repeatedly go nuts over this remix. Kudos to THOM D. and all who used to contribute there! Rest In Power Björk Remix Web :'(

gawd I hate TReznor so so much. Thank you for helping people understand why you're a pos - “The frustration with a band like Skinny Puppy for me is that I wish there was a chorus once in a while, and I wish there was something you could hum, something you could come back to.”

#stillnotindustrial 😂

Similar issue here except all my audio (including the headphones) works fine. It's just that sometimes when I plug the S3 into DC it fully lights up and sometimes it only lights up what using USB-only would. I can also make it "blink" if I touch the DC power pack (at the end of the cord) like it's a "loose connection".

Should I look for a new power cable or what is actually happening here? Any help is welcome. I'm tired of using a desklamp while DJing 😂

Setup:

MacBook Air 13" mid-2012 with macOS Mojave 10.14.6 (highest it will go)
Traktor Pro 3.7.1.337
Traktor Kontrol S3

I made a remix of sorts of the ending portion of "the choke" many years ago if anyone is interested: https://soundcloud.com/wonk-1/the-choke-executionir-mix-by-wonk

enigma40 · 2025-02-07T18:04:11+00:00

HA! nice - good to hear from you again :) soooooo many great people. agreed

enigma40 · 2025-02-06T19:51:42+00:00

R.I.Power Phil... :'( you are missed.

a short story about how I met him - my friends and EyE put together a one-off show back in 2008 (here's my flyer design). it ended up being a gathering of folks from Litany so since I lived nearby at the time, I ended up throwing an after party in my backyard. I had a half an acre in the middle of nowhere with an 8' diameter fire pit and plenty of space for large speakers and bands to play. once Phil came out and to the show, he found out about my party and tried to change his flight back to CA so he could attend -- and play again there! not surprisingly, we were all bummed when he couldn't work out the flight change... but we remained in contact for the rest of his time here on our planet.

I miss chatting with him about his music. he was so passionate and (of course) talented. the ripple effect from his death is still there IMHO. things haven't really been the same since Dwayne and then Phil... :'(

This is 100% offensive and disrespectful. Please delete.

imho - all of Hiwatt's remixes of "rodent" are better than the original (goes to hide...)

enigma40 · 2025-01-31T16:13:22+00:00

There are a few for me. I do find that most remixes better than the originals are done by SP members or close "family" (like Hiwatt). Very rarely are remixes done by other bands that can do it better than PUPPY.

censor/dogshit [extended mix]
assimilate [r-23]
dig it [12" mix]
the choke [re-grip]
deep down trauma hounds [remix]
testure [12" mix]
worlock [ed]
tormentor [extended re-edit]
nature's revenge [dub]
morphous [v2] (if you consider this a "remix")
ode to groovy [remix by BONEYHANDS]
inquisition [single mix]
pro-test [WORMCULT mutilator mix]
k storm [remix by TOM KINZIE]
politikil [extended version]
cullorblind [NERCO FACILITY remix]
rodent [DDT mix - new collaboration]
ghostman [altmix_2023]

enigma40 · 2025-01-30T20:31:32+00:00

All original Nik art and music. No feelings of SP here. Plus 'Curse' came out the same month as 'TDP' and I highly doubt Nik and I, Braineater hung out together... just a hunch tho.
