Setlist

Last night’s DJ set at Café Salonen was fun, cute and very hyggelig, despite many people I know attending the screening of Sigur Rós’ new tour documentary instead. But with only a small venue, no dancing and not a cocktail in sight, I was able to play lots of songs that wouldn’t usually find their way out on a Friday night. It was particularly nice to be asked many times for the names of artists I was playing, especially during the more melancholy part of the evening :)

Anyway I told some people that I would post up a setlist, so here is what I can remember. They are listed alphabetically because going through my CDs in that order is how I just re-compiled the list. The actual order on the night was a little more experimental!
