Bob Mould and Rich Morel host July 4 BLOWOFF dance party at Vinyl

Friday, July 3rd, 2009

Chad Radford: You are coming to DJ a dance party at Vinyl in Atlanta on the Fourth of July…

Bob Mould: Yes, The party on Saturday is called BLOWOFF. It’s an event that Rich Morel and I have been doing for about six and a half years.

CR: So, you aren’t playing music, just DJing?

BM: Yeah, it’s a series of DJ sets across the entire night. It’s a pretty fun party, I mean it’s club music. House music for lack of a better term, but I think within that there is a lot of variety to what we play.

CR: DJing is one of the most rewarding gigs out there. You don’t have to load heavy equipment; you’re just spinning your tastes and your ability to keep a party going and people treat you like a hero.

BM: Yeah, it is kind of like a rock star without moving stuff. The real heavy lifting is the amount of research that I do. I have to spend a lot of time keeping up with new music and I find that if I put in a lot of work up front, it makes the work part of the party a lot easier.
