    Sasha about Cardiff & vinyl

    For all of you who wondered at Sasha's comments in the chat transcript (those about Ableton, that is). Here is an article that appeared at the same site that hosted the chat (http://www.inthemix.com.au/p/np/viewnews.php?id=15867) a day (?) earlier. It's also got some explanations of the cd incident.



    Superstar DJ dismisses record rage net rumours

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


    DJ Sasha dismissed reports on the web this week that he'd been angry when a record he threw into the crowd struck a girl fully in the face, telling Skrufff that he?d actually been larking around after a dirty record got stuck in its groove. "I was two thirds into my set, the place was going off and I was really enjoying myself when the record started jumping," said Sasha. "By the third time it happened, the whole crowd was cheering and I ripped it off and threw it up in the air in an overly theatrical way, certainly not in frustration. I was just being a bit silly and theatrical and I guess the record boomeranged onto something and hit this poor girl on the head."

    The incident happened at Cardiff?s Time Flies event, and effectively finished the party there and then, though Sasha was also keen to refute allegations that he?d been subsequently manhandled from the decks by bouncers. "Her boyfriend grabbed hold of me, thinking that I?d thrown a glass at her or something and took me backstage and I went into this room with him to see this poor girl there with blood all over her face," he continued. "After I?d seen that I was freaked out, I didn?t know how the girl was and I didn?t want her to think I didn?t give a fuck (care-slang ed), by going back on and playing. I was flipped out by the whole thing."

    Sasha said he?s since been in contact with the girl who?s now fully recovered and will be entertaining her and her boyfriend at his next Fabric gig in July. Coincidentally he?ll also have ditched using vinyl altogether by then as well as much of the music he used to play, he said. "In about three weeks time I?m ditching vinyl and CDs to go out on the road using my computer and that?s going to allow me to mix anything with everything," said Sasha. "I?m now actively distancing myself from that progressive sound that was previously attached to me, because it really doesn?t hold much interest for me anymore," he revealed. "I think it?s time to move on, maybe I?m looking back to ?85 instead of ?95." He added.

    Some people where sayn dat it was a cd but according to himin that article it was a record. Dat clears thg's up a bit coz i cudn't really see a cd cozing a hospitalization incident (unless he was actually going for her) while a record definitly could.

        ^^^ I wonder what system he is using. A blue screen wouldn't be nice in the middle of a set.

                      Oh well, it happens, sounds like Sasha was a Class Act about it imo...

                      It was fun while it lasted...
