Mark Booth, stalwart supporter of Circuit Breaker, left Canada some time ago and is now living in Jena, where he recently did a set under his new DJ name “Der Himmelsmechaniker”.
It’s a tribute set, to all the bands he has seen play at Wave Gotik Treffen (which unfortunately is not happening this year, along with so many other festivals).

I’ve been designing games (board games, not computer games) for a lot longer than I was ever DJing. In the new year a revised version of Civil Power, a tactical-level game I designed on urban riots and mayhem, will be published by a company called Conflict Simulations. I first designed this game back in 1991-92, and it came with a set of scenarios taken from history and then-contemporary headlines… this new version has a lot of changes informed by over 25 years of designing in between, and a whole new cast of global angst and violence.
So I thought, why not make a playlist to serve as a sort of soundtrack to playing it? The above is 78 minutes of anti-authority music of many genres (most of them loud and snotty), in an easy-to-handle 44K VBR. Hope you enjoy, even if you don’t order my game!
