HACKD MWBF 2016 Setlist
I just got back from an amazing weekend at Midwest Bronyfest in Kansas City! Among the many incredible things there, we had some wonderful music events, AND we saw the pony music scene is continuing to barrel forward on a path of resurgence. In addition to LOUDER!- the main rave on Saturday night at which I performed this setlist at- we had two other very cool shows.
The first was the Friday night event- PVFM Underground- which gave unknown DJs a chance to establish themselves. But while all of the acts did a great job, one performer in particular- DJ Rod- stood out from the pack with one of the sharpest livesets I’ve ever heard at a ponycon. It was brilliant to be able to meet and chat with him, and I want to take a moment to get it out there that this is the caliber of DJ that we need to hype, promote, and support. Despite being relatively new to both the craft and the pony music scene, he put hours of preparation into his set- featuring classics from both Cider Party and Ponies at Dawn that the ticket paying fans want to hear- and it fucking showed. Absolute mad respect, it’s incredibly inspirational for the producers to know that those that have the opportunity to represent our unparalleled music scene are interested in sharing the beautiful results of all their hard work..
Then Saturday started off strong with a great turnout for my secret 8am #BoilerBarn set- catered with free donuts and juice- that gave the audience a unique, interactive experience! While I performed the improv mixing, the attendees- many of which had never touched DJ/production gear before in their lives- had a blast jamming out live drum sequencing via my Ableton Push controller and by getting crazy with some wild effects modulation via my MidiFighter 3D. I think the hour and half long jam sesh did a lot to establish the message that music isn’t and should not be an exclusive art that can only be practiced by an elite, professional few. Anyways, here’s the 100% brony produced setlist I played out in a painfully short 35 minutes to close out LOUDER!
