In cooking, you take disparate, base elements of food (or in some cases, specialty elements with one purpose only) and combine them together using different techniques to create a new whole that has hopefully become more than the sum of its parts. Replace “food” with “sound” or “music” and I think you’ve just described my approach to DJing.
So, the Test Kitchen is born. Basically, there should be new posts here semi-weekly (unfortunately I don’t just get paid to DJ and cook), each one containing a recipe and a little mini-mix to enjoy with that recipe. They’ll hopefully share some sort of common theme or technique between the two, but who knows? It’s my kitchen, dammit.
And why the “Test” Kitchen? Well, the recipes and mixes will be something new I’m trying each time, so I can’t promise perfection. But I do promise entertainment.
