djobby Posted August 14 Report Share Posted August 14 Hello everyone,I am somewhat new to this message board and from the little I have seen it looks like it should be a fun one. I noticed that one of the major topics discussed is who should be the next Space Patio Resident. I for one think that the decision should be left to the club visitors. I know we have allot of old schoolers on this site who can appreciate the days when turntables were assigned to many and not just one individual. I personally would rather spend my Sunday morning in bed with a fine female but also know that it is up to us, the local DJ's to provide music to the masses. Being at midnight or being at 10:00am. To avoid any arguments wouldn't it be better to have an "Open Turntable" night and let the listeners decide who they want to spend money listening to? Call me old school but it is just a thought. May be a challenge too.Peace to all,ObbySOTU RecordsPS: Phrankadelic........where's my CD? Not many have the underground sounds that you have. Keep up the great work.

phrankadelic Posted August 14 Report Share Posted August 14 obby, as much as it sounds good...open turntables really don't fly down here. do you really think that space would allow this to happen? i don't think so. maybe smaller clubs/bars would think about this...but mainly as a during the week thing. most places are wrapped up in politics and stick to their guns when it comes to letting anyone on the decks.there's a certain sound that the patio should stick by. plain and simple. dhm can rock it. but i wouldn't make them residents. i'd have them like twice a month. keep it fresh. bring in more talent for the patio. from out of town. not many have the sound to set the atmosphere in the patio down here. but there are some if space is willing to take the chance. shit i'd throw my name in the hat.obby - i need to pass by your crib to take care of that cd. u have everything setup?

djobby Posted August 14 Author Report Share Posted August 14 Well it all comes down to that then. SOMEONE...hint...hint.............should take a chance. He who is afraid of failure is afraid to succeed.In regards to me having everything set up. The only thing that is missing is you bro so feel to let me know when you want to pass by. My tables are yours also.Peace,Obby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeydny Posted August 14 Report Share Posted August 14 Why have a open competition when Jimmy.T is the obvious choice for the patio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djobby Posted August 14 Author Report Share Posted August 14 Well, considering that no one can decide. Why not compete to make things more interesting. That would be a perfect oppertunity for Jimmy to show everyone his talent.I also agree though. Jimmy T. should be one of the ones out there.Respect given were deservedObby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phrankadelic Posted August 14 Report Share Posted August 14 well i've never heard jimmy before and i'm sure a lot haven't. so he's not the obvious choice (no knock on him). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phrankadelic Posted August 15 Report Share Posted August 15 jesse, my post in no way was the knock jimmy. i've heard nothing but good things about him and his sets/music. and i had no idea that he had already done sets on the patio.my point is is that not everyone knows how jimmy spins, i spin or a lot of the other locals spin. shit my grandmother can tear it up on the decks...but she's obviously not the choice either. and to answer your question...i can't even remember the last time i went to space. so what do i know right?

djobby Posted August 15 Author Report Share Posted August 15 Phrank,Trust me bro, you know more than many. Just because you have not visited Space for a while does not mean that you are outdated. I am sure you have your reason why you have not gone (I know why).About your Grandmother, is she still spinning on phonographs?: ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thepulse Posted August 15 Report Share Posted August 15 Who gets to play when? Its a different story when you have the crowd there the whole time, but that never works. The guys that play during the lulls, when the crowd isn't peaking, lose out usually in the outcome. Personally I don't know too many of you who posted here but usually people asking for a sucessfull club to do an open turntable night are just looking to break into the scene, DJ's need to concentrate on smaller venues, create their own scene first- Pay Your Dues- then you can market yourself to jobs at better venues. Most bedroom djs complain that they are better than other jocks, thats not the way to get hired. And if you are "better" its because you spend all your time practicing while other jocks are out working. Just my 2 cents.PS. Personally I enjoyed hearing Ivano Bellini on the Patio, but that was during the winter 2000-2001. Then again, the Patio would be good no matter who plays- its the crowd that makes the patio! How many of you walk into a room at a club and before even knowing who the dj is or what he is playing, leave because the room or patio is empty? HMMMM, just something to think about. I've seen it happen a million times and I've seen packed rooms that stay packed even though the music is just average.House Music All Night Long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many of you walk into a room at a club and before even knowing who the dj is or what he is playing, leave because the room or patio is empty? That crowd blows. They know absolutely shit about music, hence the reason they enjoy Ivano every week. They worry about how much coke they snorted the night before, what decent of Latin/Spanish you are, and what your wearing at 9 a.m.Your right I definetely agree, that crowd makes that patio, thats why that patio fucking sucks.

djobby Posted August 15 Author Report Share Posted August 15 I totally agree with you guys.Sad but true.I myself will be in NY Sept 18th through the 23rd. Any suggestions?Vinyl shops will help also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepulse Posted August 16 Report Share Posted August 16 I remember the patio being pretty good during winter 2000-2001, the crowd was good, and actually was really cool hanging with a lot of club staffers after they got off from work on the beach. But I guess all things have to end. As for the people doing coke thing, what would Miami be without it, its not my drug of choice, but hey its not a bad thing.

thepulse Posted August 16 Report Share Posted August 16 If your looking for house check out Dance Tracks as well, 3rd st and 1st ave. And for Imports check out Dekadance, my personal favorite. I believe its still on 23rd by 6th ave, if not information can help. Also if you are at Dance Tracks be sure to mosey down the block to Beyond Bass, Johnny Vicious's store, some really nice stuff in there.
