at his bday party @ crobar round 6-7 am......brought it real low. of course peeps didnt understand that shit and were either looking around or started leaving......but he did play some deep deep shit
Right when the afterhours people usually show up, and he would start playing a more "nyc" oriented set (i.e. not in-your-face bs).
He's always been an afterhours dj so most of his crowd would show up late anyway. Unfortunately we know what happened that night.
Last time I heard DT it was at Spirit (Jan?), I thought he was really good .
And Re: Erick Morillo, when he will stop the striper aesthetic I will start considering there might be a chance of quality there. Seriously, who is he trying to get in the club with such ads? I don't do tacky.
-
it doesn't really look the same at all, the're a whole new floor now! which by the way sucks.
-
DT is doing the same thing...
Eh??? The only Jersey sound that DT plays once in a while is from the like of Kerri Chandler! You got the wrong Jersey I think.
DT is light years from (ahead) what Morillo think he needs to play in nyc.

I had a good time the couple of times I went to DiscoDistortion@Duvet (21st&6av) on Thursdays.
It's basically the equivalent to Life's a Bitch@Life / Utlra@Spa / Plaid@Buckingham if you knew those parties. A little on the gay-fashionistas-fabulous side, crowd's fun, and the music's very good (Larry Tee).

keep it simple, avoid pop-ups.

very good line-up. can cielo do anything wrong?
-
Probably towards the end of the year; those things always open later than expected. I wouldn't be surprised if they save the big opening for NYE.

Sunday: private Loft party, then Motherfucker. Other than that, I'm open to radomness.

its ok kitty.. just anotha hata is what we have here.
Maybe homophobic remarks are okay with you, they're not in my book.
-

They did what they did and made it work.
Ok, good. So can we move on and stop jerking off at the ability to be sober?

the real music lovers can do with out the use of any type of drugs
Yeah, they can do without or with.
I am so tired of those debates, (I'll repeat myself) what's your next step, to bash Larry Levan or Ron Hardy for their Heroine use? I really would like to hear what you have to say about this.
Oh! No! What happened to "The Love" house-heads talk about?fuck ALL ya'll haters! -
the mess with glenn was some drama indeed, and i wasnt talking bout e, im talking bout the OTHER bad stuff ya know.
He's a great producer though. Love the stuff he put out on guidance recording (I love whatever guidance put out anyway
) Oh, and to the poster who said you need drugs for HM, I listen to it at home too, haha. Give it few listening at home, maybe it'll work for you too.
PS: thanks for the link sb, nice mix.
-
oy yeah im not talking bout the music that is 130bpm and above, im talking bout house music that is 128bpm and its not all druggy, tell that to all the heads over at DEEPHOUSEPAGE.com . Yes the music and the clubs go hand n hand since the begining but the reasons why people do it and the drugs people use are much worse now than ever.
I am not so sure, back then they (kids at the Garage, Music Institute, Sound Factory) were dropping acid, that's a pretty powerfull one, no? I don't know why dropping E is different (i.e. not an enhacing experience compared to acid/lsd? --Crystal is a different story)
I just really don't like the moral high ground that some of the heads take. VERY JUDGMENTAL to me. Soon, they'll be saying that gays are evil...hold on, didn't this just happened with Glenn Underground (an amazing producer btw). This is just a road that leads to nowhere.

> now you have guys going to clubs not to listen to the music, but to pick up girls.
"now"? For most people club is a social place to meet and pick-up girls/boys. The freaks who go out for the music (i.e. most/some of us) are (and always will be) a minority (The Garage/Loft/... were never mainstream places in the first place anyway).
> my peoples don’t dance lean back, lean back
As someone who can't dance for sh*t, I take offense in his rambling. So now there's a "dance requirement" to be able to enjoy Shelter (I assume this is the type of House he's talking about (not the Sasha stuff). Only those deephouse heads keep ranting about commercialism).
I am not sure there is a clear defined answer to this problem. Some good House tracks became hits: "French Kiss", Daft Punk (Homework!), ...
My final point is there is no need to worry, there's always been some things that never make it to the commercial (not everything can). And when it does, there's always some kids who think it's crap and come up with good stuff. The problem is to know where to find that. The same way commercial success does not define quality, it does not define bad music.
Peace.

look.......im not in the "gay scene" so i have no idea nor have i ever heard of the guy. Fantastic if hes an amazing dancer and voger. props to him, i know that i cant dance or vogue for that matter. no need to catch an attitude chief....
i know my history in regards to the whole house music scene in NYC and have never once heard of the fuckin guy.....so i guess you learn somthing new every day....i happened to google his name before hand so that i wouldnt make myself look like i dont know about him, but i didnt find shit so i thought he was just some door guy with a stupid name....my apoligies
wish people would teach instead of being condescending .....jesus christ...
Hey, being condescending was not my intent. I even took the time to write few lines about who this person his! Am I not nice?!
No one knows everything, there's no problem about this. You know what's he's done now (kinda), so you can make up your mind a little better (and can still lyao if you feel like it).
Peace.
PS: He's also on a great documentary about the nyc gay underground in the 80s/90s(?) called "Paris Is Burning" (it's old but interesting, if you feel like it).

I've heard to Christian Dior, but that doesn't help you I think.

Though I usually end with a one luff my job here is being a hater. I'm not on here to giff hugz freak. I'm part of that thing they call the ying yang. You can be the nice "guy" and I'm in charge of the degredation/drama department.
Half a nice day.
Is that why you changed your gender to Harley? Are you also wearing leather pants now?
-
Actually no. I rather laugh at this dumb ass name.
How's the hate going there days?
-
thanks for pointing that out.......that made me laugh too.....
what makes him so amazing??
hes the fucking door guy lmaoHe's going to do some crazy ninja sh*t if he hears you say something like that!
More seriously, he is a voguing legend (a really amazing dancer, seriously), and a staple of New York City gay scene (i.e. pioneered disco/house music in this city want it or not). He also put out records back in the day and still does I believe.
As such, he is amazing.
Before "lmao", you should check on things.
Peace.

yo rage been reading your post on rhythmism and seems like you only got half the story correct. Dont wanna waste time arguing with you cause it seems like you only talk bout kool herc and 1971, while yes that is the beggging of hip hop culture THAT should not be disputed. But it is not the begging of the djing culture nor the house side of the culture. The beggings go back to the 60s with dj like francis grasso, steve dcquisto, david mancuso, doin so many innovation and creations, while simutaniously up in the bronx kool herc was doin his thing with the same records that were already beeing used in the 60s by the above djs name. While he may have done it for hip hop culture he was behind a few yrs from other pioneers.
Plus, people tend to discover/invent things at the same time (even if they never heard of each others work), so sometimes credit should be given to more than one person.

hes the fucking door guy lmao

I liked that second club in a club. Twilo had such a thing and it was amazing. They kept it as a "vip" room for big events, or when they organized their own little parties. It was such a great place, totally fabulous. It's sad Spirit did not know how to handle it better.
The second floor that gets on my nerves a little is the one overlooking the dancefloor, it's small, and mostly for "tables" (not really comfortable either). I just don't get why it's here given that it dilutes the energy.
Anyway, let's stop bitching like an old lady, Spirit's a great club thanks to the sound and line-up
