Our theme song after a win.
Great, great album. I have 3 tracks on my exercise playlist. I might swap out Cypress Avenue and add Sweet Thing. Or The Way Lovers Do. Or Madame George. Or âŚ

Impossible to get out of your head
Hi music fans,
If thereâs anyone in here who doesnât frequent the DJ King thread, just a heads up to let you know that weâll be kicking off another Blonde DJ comp next week sometime, after the footy has finished. If youâre familiar with the comps and would like to join, let me know with an @ or a reply in here.
If youâre not familiar with them, we gather around 20-30 DJs to submit tracks matching themes, for voting on, in a competition with different rounds. Everyone votes on their favourites, and the songs submitted are âblindâ, i.e. no DJ name attached, so you donât know who you are voting for. In the next iteration thereâll be two preliminary rounds, and then the number of DJs will be whittled down for the final.
The action is tense, the banter to fill time makes the comp what it is, the dummy spits are legendary.
Please note that a comp usually runs for about 5-7 days, and in that time you will need to submit songs when asked (youtube links by private/direct message to the comp admin - this time itâs me), listen to other peopleâs songs, and submit votes. Basically, the comp runs smoothly when participants pop in to the thread a few times a day, and are able to get through a set (which could run up to 20 songs in some cases) in a day, whether morning, afternoon, or evening. The upcoming comp will require you to listen and vote on 3 separate sets over its duration.
If you have any doubts about finding the time, itâs probably best to not sign up. But if you are on Blitz regularly each day, no probs.
So far the following Blitzers are in:
Swoodley

Maxx
Paul_Peos
