mindfaqd Posted July 29 Report Share Posted July 29 What the hell happened, the place is so dead u can hear crickets. CPI has been the premier hamptons hot spot for as many years as I can remember. I understand that Ojeida hasn't been great for the last couple of summers, but still managed to pack the place out. Now that he is playing some great sets, nobody goes. I don't understand. could this actually (as advertised for the last 10 years) be the last summer for CPI???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cesarleo Posted July 29 Report Share Posted July 29 Jason has always been good. It's not his fault......but rather a combination of a bunch of things. House rentals are way down ttis yr.....probably due to the economy, nightlife in general has been kinda off, and everybody is getting too mangled at Neptunes to venture out at night....and rather drive back to hit up Bridgeview......don't ask me why either cause Bridgeview is weak....lol. Too bad cause CPI is the best thing the Hamptons has....IMO. Neptunes is great but it's not a real club experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoolander Posted July 29 Report Share Posted July 29 Ceserleo Hit it right on the money. Jason has played great sets all summer long, it has nothing to do with the music. Everyone loves Neptunes for many reasons, most importantly because the girls are just about naked. Some of my boys are coming out next weekend just for Neptunes. And what is up with everyone going to Bridgeview on Saturday. Everyone I talked to @ Neptunes was going??? Is it that good, I went there once this summer and it was packed with 15 year olds. I'm going to Seven for the first time this friday, anyone have any reviews about it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seven has been decent on Fridays I heard so check it out......I hear the people who work there are good guys too. As for Bridgeview.......it's just weak like you said. Too big, horrible sound system....very mix crowd from bar rats to hip-hop goers to old fart washed up guidos.....music is too commercial IMO and parking can be a nightmare......not to mention the lines.....and why was everyone from Neptunes going.....I HAVE NO IDEA.....but that seems to be the case. I will be @ Neptunes sat.....hopefully the weather is nice. Zoolander......what's that resort under your sig......I need to get my ass there.....lol!

mindfaqd Posted July 29 Author Report Share Posted July 29 Have u guys been listening to the same music as me? Ojeida hasn't been great since he spun at Cyberia years ago. He has greatly improved since the beginning of this summer when the management asked him to do whatever it takes to bring the crowd back. Even though Ojeida sounded good on Saturday, Alot of people found it hard not to drift into the other room to listen to DJ Rossi who was on point all night. Ojeida was horrible for the 1st 4 weeks of summer and has been GOOD since then. I just hope for the sake of CPI that it isn't too little too late.

Ojeida was horrible for the 1st 4 weeks of summer and has been GOOD since then. I just hope for the sake of CPI that it isn't too little too late. IMO he has been fine. I heard him over the over Mem. day, the Fourth, and classics night. Like I said earlier.......it's not b/c of the music why people aren't showing.....it's all the other factors previously mentioned. His style is the same since Iv'e been going to hear him wherever he may be.....which is same as....if not better than his Cyberia sets over the winter. Cyberia was packed every weekend this winter and people were loving him.......so I know it ain't the music factor. People in Jersey worship his sets at Hunka Bunka and always asked for him to come back......I really don't think it's the music but I regardless I hope it picks up. Maybe I'll make an appearance this Sat. and see what's up. Haven't been to CPI since the fourth......itching to make a return though.

Teknojunkee Posted July 29 Report Share Posted July 29 Ive been there almost every saturday. Ojeda has been pretty good. Turtle Bay is killin CPI. I tried that place out and it was PAAAAAACKKKKKKKEEDDDDDDDD. I really hope CPI starts doing better now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkmastagbag Posted July 30 Report Share Posted July 30 CPI has been dead for the last few weeks but it was decent this weekend. Most people have been going to Turtle Bay but from what i hear the tunes Ojeda is droppin are much much better. This has been one of jason's biggest step ups this summer lets get some people out there to show him we appreciate a good dj. And 7 is better on thursdays but i hear its not so bad on friday's either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teknojunkee Posted July 30 Report Share Posted July 30 I still support Ojeda and CPI everyweek dead or not. I always have fun even if at 4am it is just 20 people in there. I really would love to see it packed out again. I dunno what else i can do ya know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zoolander Posted July 31 Report Share Posted July 31 Cesarleo whats the deal bro?It's the Atlantis in the Bahamas. The Best Vacation I have ever gone on(Probably 2nd to Cancun). No Club scene @ all, if your looking to gamble with celebs and spend $$ on great food go. I'll be @ Neptunes as well this weekend. Maybe I'll see you, Im the skinniest guy there. The juice did'nt work for me as well as it did for other guys Is seven more of a club scene or Bar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkmastagbag Posted July 31 Report Share Posted July 31 You have your bar scene and you have ur club scene. I dont know how they came to mesh but that pretty much explains 7. Its a balub. (barclub) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justin micahels Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 Brazil has completely revamped their club, and it has been packed EVERY SINGLE WEEKEND. The music has been great, and the place is beautiful...CPI is too big...not enough people this summer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginz Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 Originally posted by blueharvest Brazil has completely revamped their club, and it has been packed EVERY SINGLE WEEKEND. The music has been great, and the place is beautiful...CPI is too big...not enough people this summer... I must disagree. How could you possiblly say that Brazil is beautiful?? Can you even see anything in that place with the one light bulb they have screwed in???? LOL!!! For real though, the place is so freakin dark. It was sooo annoying to try to talk to someone or even find someone in there. It's also waaaaaay to small. The ceiling is so low. I feel like Im in my basement. I will give the Morrisey's credit for bringing in some really talented DJ's, but the space is just unbearable. I would almost rather they move the house music to the outside and move the hip hop inside. It gets way to crowded in there and it make for a very uncomforatable night. CPI was such a better space. Its unfortunate that everyone decided that it was uncool to go there. I truelly miss hearing Ojeda spin to a GOOD crowd. Now its just a bunch of east end bar people that dont know any better.

I hope people will go this weekend for the webster hall thing they're doin.hey that pic in ur sig is from the deck at neptunes,right?

I hope people will go this weekend for the webster hall thing they're doin.hey that pic in ur sig is from the deck at neptunes,right? The vibe is totally off except for Neptunes. The crowd that goes out to hear good music is gone. Now its just people looking for a place to do their drugs in the dark.In addition, I think that the fact that less people are doing hampton Shares has affected the turnout for CPI. The majority of the crowd that used to go to CPI came from Nassau, Western Suffolk, Connecticut, and Brooklyn/Bronx. Since the start of the Bridview party on Saurdays, it has taken away from CPI. Why would someone who lives West that far West of CPI drive right past Bridview and trek all the way out east? Granted, Bridgview will never have the vibe that CPI did, but its a fair tradeoff not to have to drive so far. Also, alot of people are going to the Jersey Shore because thats where the "Scene" has moved. I went down there and witnessed the best vibe in a LONG time. the crowd was hot and everyone was there for the music. I didnt see one person standing around. Everyone danced no matter who they were!Im not sure how or if CPI will rebound. This summer has seriously made me contimplate doing a Hamptons house again. I am strongly considering a Shore house next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cesarleo Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 Now we all miss CPI and I agree I was down the shore this weekend and IT WAS ON FIRE! I'm not a Denny fan.....but he's was on fire as well! I can't wait to go back. I feel bad b/c some of my shore friends got a house out East and this was probably the worst summer to do it. Anyway, we should all agree on one thing. Let's go out with a bang and rock CPI Labor Day Weekend to salvage the memories we had.....and hopefully one day will once again. I plan on raiding the place with as many people as I can bring over Labor Day weekend. Hopefully Jason will do another classics night as well.

hamptonparty Posted August 8 Report Share Posted August 8 you have to remember that 1500 people doesnt look like a lot in 37,000 square feet last year on reg sat 2400 would come thruthe door on a reg sat nite. remember most clubs in the hamptons have occupancies of 300-500 so we still have more than 3 times any other club out there. rentals are way down this year so that is why over the next couple weeks we are shooting our load to bring you a lot of special entertainment to get you off the beach and on a dance floor or in your cars to come out.some peeple dont even walk around the club to see what is going on in other parts either. the hip hop room was packed and the patio was busy the pub was slow and jason had a decent dance floor which actually started fairly early. go to the cpi website cpiniteclub.com and print out the coupon to save money at the door this saturday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
