the techno one that I started the set with? sven vath - ballet fusion

starting the psy a little early because I'm beginning to hallucinate from lack of sleep...enjoy the techno?

my last set, and probably my most energetic.

all right....

it's going to have to end right now folks. I'm very confused and I'm well behind my capability for mixig...I just can't do it...I feel like I'm floating and I'm seing lots of tracers...and...there's no way i can get the pitches of the records to line up.

I'm reallu sorry, as i would like to finish the 24 hours, but it looks like I have no choice but to end now because of my current physical state.

on a side onte i've got a set in the chillout room every saturday so yuo can see there too

I've been up since 2 AM saturday, and I guess it's taking it's toll....

I am really sorry that I cannot finish this

thanks to everyone who listened

Well done on a 21 hour set anyway dude .. I guess it doesn't matter you didn't make it all the way, 21 hours is still completely insane

What local time did you start? (I noticed you started about 2pm my time)

Very nice job man! That is still incredible!

I started at 10 pm my time, which was probably a mistake. I had gotten up and 2 am that morning too to work on preparations for the mix. I had spent like 2 weeks fully inbetween my finals prepating it.
Woo. 7 hours of dreamless sleep seems to have fixed my head a bit, though I still feel kind of strange, and my legs hurt...meh. It was worth it.
I'm wondering if I became dehydrated too at the end, because I don't think I'd drank anything in about 12 hours either, and I was sweating a lot during the techno set, but was too worried about stopping playing to get a drink. Oh well.
I tried my best, anyhow.

any reason why you're doing a 24hour liveset? just curious

in celebration of the completion of the first semester in college...though I really got the idea one night trying to fall asleep in my bed...no other TA had ever done it, and it seemed like a neat idea at the time. Plus, it was a challenge for me, especially because a few of the genres I'd never really played so much before.

Plus there's kind of a David Blaine attention whoring factor to it too I suppose, but since someone already wants to do more than me, I guess that's blown. Good luck to that person.

I know better now. It was really a lot rougher than I thought it would be. And, regardless, I did have a fun time doing it.

Maybe next time start it in the morning - something like 10am, that way you're up all day and it's just like a long clubbing session at night, going a bit into the sunrise

I'd be willing to put money on it that you were dehydrated. It probably would've been a good idea to have a lot of water and food around you, that way you don't need to go and get it. But more than 12 hours without drinking anything generally isn't a good idea.

Oh well, kudos for trying

I'm impressed, takes guts to even try to pull of something like this. Exercised your mental toughness, and you were right about the sheer attention you got. Wonder if this is a trend that will start spreading, I better start practicing long sets if I'm gonna keep up.
