As far as Abyss and Bunka are concerned you guys are right on. They have lost whatever it was they had. I don't know if it is the crowd getting younger, or is that scene getting old? As far as friday nights are concerned the subliminal party is great, a friend of mine, Dj Aqua, has been spinning there downstairs for a short time now. His style of house has def got a 'groove' you guys should check it out, it is a nice change from NY hard house. As far as bunka is concerned, they need to mix it up a bit. Try to appeal to a larger venue. I have spun there, and the crowd was very receptive to trance/house. But i have to tell you, any one who is looking to spin there the monitors are a nightmare and one of the turn tables do not work. Not to ramble, but if any of you guys are up for a change come down to new brunswick for a mid week party that i do on wednesdays. Email me if you want details....Sorry about the long message.........johnMichael
