Over the weekend, I djed another exclusive TP potluck set, under the same conditions as my last one, a retrospective of the canon instead of big names (U2, R.E.M....) and top 10 hit-status. The playlist: ABC - When Smokey Sings Steel Pulse - Steppin' Out Kurtis Blow - Basketball Del Amitri - Kiss This Thing Goodbye Material with Nona Hendryx - Bustin' Out Sigur Ros - Dauoalogn Inspiral Carpets - This Is How It Feels Andy Prieboy - Death of New Wave John Cale - Big White Cloud Slowdive - Shine Channel Light Vessel - Testify Afrika Bambaataa - Pupunanny Adam and the Ants - Friend Or Foe Dwight Tilley - Girls Eddy Grant - War Party Blancmange - Blind Vision Matthew Sweet and Susanna Hoffs - Run To Me William Orbit - Love My Way (Best of Strange Cargo version) Clan of Xymox - Louise They Might Be Giants -Particle Man Shelleyan Orphan - Epitaph, Ivy and Woe Die Toten Hosen - Schonen Gruß, Auf Wiedersehen Mojo Nixon - Love Me, I'm a Liberal Seefeel - Polyfusion Sonic Boom with Panda Bear - Livin' In the After Killing Joke - Follow the Leaders Michael Brook - Distant Village Klaus Nomi - Lightning Strikes Dif Juz - Love Insane New Model Army - Christian Militia Nico - These Days The Waterboys - The Whole of the Moon Overtime Misfits - Where Eagles Dare Brian Setzer Orchestra - The House Is Rockin' Ryuichi Sakamoto - Launch (From the Proxima Soundtrack) Blind Mr. Jones - Regular Disease* * - Not a TP artist, but one of the best examples of Shoegaze I have ever come across, a band that was sadly short-lived in the mid-90's. I am really fascinated by potluck lists/sets, it's such a rush to listen to so many disparate (seemingly, to some) genres and song structures in a single night. My usual potlucks come from all over the world; one list might include Swedish funk, Bulgarian State Women's Choir, Philippines Reggae and Egyptian bellydance, buttressed by 30-40 percent of TP songs as well. https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,67961,67961#msg-67961 Wed, 15 Apr 2026 11:40:53 -0500 Phorum 5.2.23 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,67961,67962#msg-67962 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,67961,67962#msg-67962 Delvin Trouser Press Tue, 03 Sep 2024 08:42:34 -0500 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,67961,67961#msg-67961 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,67961,67961#msg-67961
