Live from Ghost Ship, Episode 3: Aaaron Pope

Aaron Pope’s been a long time friend and favorite of the Cowboys, so we’re exceptionally glad that the recorder didn’t bomb out on is set like it did for Murphstar’s (sorry Murph!).

Pope wrote us a short play-by-play of his Ghost Ship DJing experience…

This year’s Ghost Ship party was one of the better SF parties I’ve ever been involved with. When I took over the decks at 4am, the main floor was packed with screaming, bouncing, costumed silliness, and the energy was infectious. At one point I remember there being a row of self-appointed go-go dancers, dancing on the stage in front of me – until security shooed them off. Since I was closing out the room, and wanted to keep the crowd on the floor, I kept the music fun, rather than dark and bangin’. I played an eclectic mix of house, breaks and electro, including some original songs that that my partner Chad and have done. Before I knew it, it was 4:50am and security guy was there again, giving me the ‘cut-it’ sign. I reluctantly lowered the fader, thanked the crowd, and the party was over. I hope the live energy and fun of this set comes through in the recording, and please excuse the few, of less-than-perfect mixes.
