What a pleasure it was making these illustrations for this new @wetransfer’s @wepresent article entitled:“The Last Song: How does a DJ decide which track will close out their set?”I love going on @wepresent and put it on my bucket list last year, and not to mention I absolutely love all genres of music… some of these DJs I have been listening to for ages, so this was a real treat.Featuring illustrations of some cool nightlife stories from @gillespeterson , @officialkrystalklear, @iamshiba, @maiafelipe, and other non-illustrated stories from @colleencoleofficial, @solomun, @djholographic, and @__carista, as well as beautifully written by @alex.kahl:“If you’ve been to your fair share of festivals or club nights, chances are you’ll have a few standout memories of the last songs that were played at your favorite ones. From romantic ballads to disco anthems to Motown classics, the last tune ties the night together and leaves you with that lasting high. But how does a DJ harness the power that comes with being behind the decks in that all-important moment as the lights go up and we’re all ushered back into the real world? Alex Kahl asked 8 DJs and music experts what the last track means to them, and how they go about selecting the songs that send us home”.Special thanks to Alia Wilhelm @aliiiiia and Faye Quinn.
