Haha, So your saying The View are not credible as DJ's but your happy to pay a tenner to see some DJ Random from SanFran or Berlin with minimal artistic integrity who's likely to play mostly their own bedroom produced boom boom boom!

What is happening now in wider clubland now is that your seeing major artists playing hip main room DJ sets and rocking the clubs with the tunes they love and has influenced the music they have made. The View and a whole bunch of other bands do this and they are as credible if not more credible than the 'world champion' DJ's that have dominated the club scene for the last 20 years. It really is a fresh experience.
If we knew all it took to make a club night credible was to have a tenner ticket we'd have set the price at that!

Anyway this is all good banter, and if you've never been to a band's club expererience, you really should try it, I'm sure you'll be surprised and as a bonus you'll have enough cash for another half pint! or chips on the way home.

Why are they more credible?

haha,
I'm just suggesting that they may be as, or more credible than other DJ's as people may want to know more about what influences their music and what they are getting into. At the end of the day a DJ's job is to entertain by selecting appropriate music to fit that instant in time, and these guys seem to fit that bill when they do their DJ sets!

Saying that, I've probably shot myself in the foot and they'll now probably turn up late without their tunes and unable to walk in straight line!

Yes because I'd rather hear fresh and diverse underground music from scenes around the globe being mixed by talented, passionate DJ's than listen to some twattish, generic, pointless soundalike provincial band play their no doubt incredibly predictable CD collection

You clearly have no idea about "clubland".

Whast makes it different from any other rock night in Moshulu? Instead of the house DJ playing old rock records, it's the View playing old rock records...

You've not been in on a Saturday in a while, have you?
Gone are the 'old rock records'. Gone.

Aberdeen seems to be getting loads of fairly big names coming up.

They are all far too mainstream and bland though! All I'm bothered about seeing in the next few months is Ian Brown (funnily enough) and Foo Fighters/Serj Tankian .

All these bands like The View, MCR, Editors etc are here today gone tomorrow. Kings of Leon aren't bad though, they've gone quite prog with their new album.

Was meaning to go to see Inme too though.

It's true. I suffered Air Guitar a few times before swearing to never again expose myself to such a shit club night......

what's on now on Saturday nights?

[Steven Milne]

saturday nights in moshulu is now Adventures in Stereo night.

its basically an indie / electro night with cheap drinks promos, free entry before midnight (or free completely if you PM me for guestlist) and live visuals.

you should come down and see what you think, is caused a bit of controversy with the old crowd (which i can understand why as its nothing like air guitar at all). but its had 500 plus people in since it started so must be doing something right.

here is the first nights playlist:

I haven't been to the mosh in quite a few weeks. Was never really a fan of the tunes on a Saturday night anyway. Usually i'd just sit in the quiet room or whatever it's called, hammered and drinking cocktails . The prices are very good though compared to the awful commercial clubs in Aberdeen like Liquid and Pearl Lounge.


Some of that sounds quite good though eg 2 many djs, Libertines etc.

a bit of Prodigy, Pendulum, 65daysofstatic etc wouldn't go amiss too.

Just so long as there isn't too much of the generic indie stuff like Arctic Monkeys, Razorlight, Kaiser Chiefs etc.
My ideal club would play a mix of punk, indie, alternative rock etc and a bit of drum and bass, house etc!
