JonStephen Posted June 2 Report Share Posted June 2 My man absolutely ripped it......It was a shame no one was there to hear it, but it was a treat nonetheless. He went from deeper tribal house to hard and groovy house, worked in some sweet grooves and had everyone in there bouncing around.I really am surprised I don't hear this guy's name out there more often, but I doubt he will be considered a relative unknown behind the decks for long.

What he said. Absolutely impossible to sit still for too long.How can this guy be so unknown? Oh and it was cool seeing DT walking around. But is it just me or did he not seem to be enjoying himself at all? Not even bobbing his head or anything, from what I saw... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcid21 Posted June 2 Report Share Posted June 2 yeah...this dude def tore shit up last night...there was so much room it was unbelieveable...But I think we all needed it...btwn Cintron bouncing all over the place, and Carl about to bust through the DJ booth screaming for more bass...us CPers owned that joint...I really didn't want to leave early, but my energy level was just about hitting zero ((i was a beach bum all day yesturday...))....but...that Kid Chris is def on my "favorites" list.... . . maybe we can keep him "our lil' secret"....just for a short while at least . . .

£ddie Posted June 2 Report Share Posted June 2 A true superstar in the making. Watch out for this guy. Sick tribal and progressive house. I closed out SF with girly after Vinyl (I saw Danny T walking around Factory ), and I can say without reservation that That Kid Chris's set put JP's set to shame.

£ddie Posted June 2 Report Share Posted June 2 By the way he and his girlfriend seem cool as shit. Very down to earth peeps. Hopefully as he climbs the ladder of recognition he'll stay that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
girly Posted June 2 Report Share Posted June 2 That kid CHris= Dope as hell... he didnt' play tribal function but thats ok. Nice seeing everyone:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cintron Posted June 2 Report Share Posted June 2 He brought a bunch of rekkids he didn't get to play. Shame he didn't hold down the joint all night. He told me he'd spin for 24 hours if someone gave him the deck-time. I believe him, yo Seriously i must confess i've found a new favorite. I'd always wanted to hear him play live after hearing some of the tracks that him AND his girl Melanie have produced. (Yes girl you have my respect.) Chris didn't let me down at all. It was never boring, never a dull moment. He switched things up and always kept it interesting. He'd give us smooth deep progressive, switch it up to banging tech-house, slip in some vocals, get funkier with it and right about when we were smiling like kids in a candy store, he'd drop the bomb. Over and Over and Over again. Honestly Danny is a great DJ, but i have never had a better time at Vinyl. Ever.That goes for DT, DeepDish and Lawler. EVER.Melanie, thank you so much for the great convos - i understand where you're coming from on a lot of what you said and believe me, I don't see Chris being hidden away as a "Secret" of the city for much longer. not with the vibe he helped create last night.Oh and Chris, if you read this, I DEFINITELY want to know where you're playing in the future. Props to you, "Kid" (btw, the demo cd was rather nice. put a big smile on my face on the drive home.)One more thing: I never thought i'd find myself dancing to a remix of Sandstorm... or Madonna for that matter. You and Melanie are welcome at my house for beans and rice ANYTIME Later everyone!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoozi8 Posted June 2 Report Share Posted June 2 definitely one of my best nights ever I was so happy to see (mostly) everyone sober and dancing their booties off it's a shame everyone from shagfest didn't come we would have really owned the place The music was insane sick beats nice tribal wow nice couch in the back room, even though the floors had no carpet! I don't like seeing Vinyl under construction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReginaP Posted June 2 Report Share Posted June 2 Okay I SPECIFICALLY wore non-Vinyl shoes to Shagfest so I wouldn't end up there, and where do I end up? Vinyl... That Kid Chris was definitely a treat--Cintron you were right as *usual*! I treasure the look on your face when I walked in---I love you too! Unfortunately, my sandals got the best of me and I had to leave around 5...but the music was amazing. I would definitely come out for That Kid again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yo man...you're right. I don't know what these kids are talkin' about. He's been around since around 94-95 and had some records released on Strictly Rhythm.

But where does he play in the city on a regular basis? For someone thats been around forever and has proven to me he can lay an awesome set...........I'm surprised he's doesn't have a weekly somewhere.

wideskies Posted June 3 Report Share Posted June 3 does anyone have any mixes of his that i could DL?... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cintron Posted June 3 Report Share Posted June 3 Gracias, Regina love you too dear. [haha TOLD YOU].As for TKC... yes he has been around for a while. Victor Calderone and him grew up together, as i found out. I've got a few releases of his and i've always wanted to see him play, but it's difficult to find out stuff sometimes in NYC. Seems that unless you're a big name DJ, getting promoted is a bitch. I'm definitely going to make more of an effort to turn over every rock, tree and pimped out 83 corolla to find where he's playing at in the future though.

hoke Posted June 3 Report Share Posted June 3 Surely somebody knows this guy and can get us on mailing lists?If he's consistently this good, I'd be the first to be his groupie! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll work on it also you can email Melanie. She's his girlfriend and his Promoter (wow what a combo, eh?) Very professional girl. She posted on here for the guestlist info, so i hope she doesn't object to me re-posting her email addy:Melanie1tkcmusic@aol.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been around since around 94-95 and had some records released on Strictly Rhythm. True. But he gets nowhere near the publicity that these big name DJs do. Only people who are realy into music would know how long he was around. Goes to show you how many more talented DJs there are out there than many even realize. I honestly enjoyed his set more than Howells set last week. He really did mix it up. It wasn't just bang bang bang hard beats all night long--he played quite a variety of music. But ya gotta love the tribal!!!!!!!! Hopefully he'll become a regular in the NY scene. It would be awesome to have a DJ of that caliber to have as an option on a Friday or Saturday night as opposed to the usual DJs we're familiar with. It really was a shame more people didn't show up, but that didn't stop him from throwing down a wicked set. This man needs more publicity. Next time he's here, I'll be sure to spread the word.

JP was good but he played some of his basslines for too long and it got repetitive. Best I've heard him in a while, but he couldn't touch That Kid Chris. Nevertheless I had an awesome time at both places for different reasons. And my eardrums are paying the price right now. BTW nice meeting those I hadn't met before. Hoke, Cintron, MarciD.

cintron Posted June 3 Report Share Posted June 3 Hoke, man we WERE the party! lol it's so crazy. I couldn't help feeling all night that we OWNED that place. It belonged to US. It was one of those parties where you could stop and talk to every person and at the end of the night, remember everyone's name. insane. I haven't felt a vibe like that in Vinyl in a long time.

I haven't felt a vibe like that in Vinyl in a long time. It felt like that at Casselle & Omid a while back... I think... I don't really remember, LOL.Seriously, though some will complain about the lack of people... I think you get the best atmosphere that way. You can't have scene-heads when there's NO SCENE. All about the music: YES. Everybody there was in the frame of mind that says, "Fuck it, I paid my $20, I'm here to dance, I'm GOING to dance, and... wow... what a great set!" You couldn't help but feel a part of something special. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
