I had a blast DJing a neighbor’s high school party last night. Much to my amazement, the kids didn’t balk when I started playing house. Times have changed from when I was in high school 5 years ago. Here’s a link to a 36 minute mix and here’s the track list:

Another Note: Since my last post, I’ve opted to go the simple route and build a monochromatic Arduinome. This is my first DIY electronics project and hijacking the monome 256 protocol to run three separate LED channels just sounds too involved for me at this point.
