You know it's a weird thing posting up playlists - those that want to nobble might say its all about showing off or bragging about what you got. Friends might say you're being informative and helpful. Many like to see what others are playing as it gives them an insight, ideas and inspiration. However it leaves you wide open to criticism as some will say the set was too safe and not adventurous enough. People can also compare your sets with previous ones to see if or how your playlists have or have not changed. Remember DJing isnt all about beer and skittles, more often than not its putdowns that come your way rather than praise. Given the number of DJs on here it's easy to see why more playlists aren't posted up more often. I mean why leave your self wide open to attack and abuse?

But hey if you're gobby enough to be a DJ I'm gobby enough to post up my recent playlists. Besides I'm old enough and ugly enough to take it hehe

Superb playlist

Nice to see such as JJ Barnes , Al Kent which many would be considered as played out oldies alongside some of the superb rarer sounds.
