about

KXXTZ started sneaking out his house at 15 years old to go with their homies to the Goth / Industrial / Ethereal club night called Kontrol Faktory which was on Highland Blvd right smack in the middle of Hollywood.

My friends at the time were slightly older and were official Goth Heads. They knew all the music and the dances, they were cool. KXXTZ was a total poser but didn't give a fuck and would just dance in a shadowy corner. Growing up in an Egyptian household one would hear things about the ''Evil Eye'' and that shit stuck in their head for years and because of this KXXTZ was pretty shy and never danced in front of anyone outside family.

Back to Kontrol Faktory ... shadowy corner ..

One time the DJ played the Suicidal Tendencies track ''Institutionalized'' and cleared the dancefloor. Without hesitation I started skipping around in circles (kinda like a little girl would or a sassy monkey) and then it turned into a one man mosh skank, then for the chorus I did a really bad version of ballet. With each verse the mosh skank got harder and the bad ballet even more silly. The DJ played the entire song (3:50) and no one joined in... they just watched with what I thought were evil eyes. I was wrong and they clapped when the song ended. I thought I was going to get made fun of or something but a girl came up to me and gave me a hug and some dude bought me a beer but I declined as I was straight edge at the time.

This tape was made with the memory of being in my homie Darren Hinton's car driving through Hollywood late night listening to insane shit.

Another time years later I got into Darren's car and was all excited about the first Broadcast record ''Dude you have to hear this new band that sounds like an old band'' and he replied ''You think you're a DJ now?'' hahaha

Hope this story helps explain why this tape sounds the way it does

Peace!

KXXTZ
