MadamMillie Posted February 7 Report Share Posted February 7 FABULOUS. simply FABULOUS. phil thompson's set was PERFECT. perfect opening set. i really really enjoyed it. really nice, smooth, "warm" prog if you know what i mean. and gradually built it up for danny. danny was, as usual, on POINT mixing-wise. although i personally enjoyed the mad techno he had played at trust in baltimore a few months ago. however, he did his mad, crazy, cannot feel the floor b/c you're bouncing so much prog thing, no flaws (that my ears could hear anyway). then diggers...soooo nice to hear him again. MADHOUSE. CHAOS. BOUNCE BOUNCE BOUNCE. lack of enough time for him to really do his thing, though, IMO. not enough ups and downs IMO just two hours of straight goodness. lots of lights and lasers, a bit overkill though. the overhead green lasers were great but the blue strobe hits you straight in the face if youre in front. which of course is where i was. soooo much good music but i couldnt leave the main floor! Jonathon lisle, paul louth upstairs, a few more (hyper i think as well?)ran into a friend of mine from dallas!!! didnt know it but he's very active on the GU board and is visiting here. they're doing bedrock brighton tonight. short sets, 2 hours each. but diggers will be at fabric next sat, which closes at 6 or 7am, so i will get my fill there.i suck at trainspots so none for ya.

I saw DT/CC at Twilo and that was nuts, but basically cuz it was Twilo. I've heard a couple of his mixes and I dont think I get it yet, so I wanted to do some research.

Melodies, Big synth chords....their Essential mix was the one I heard and I thought it was pretty much on the house side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest jroo Posted February 7 Report Share Posted February 7 maybe one day all you music coniessures will aprecieate some good D&B one day, I know that baby anne had all you guys dancing, but you all still fail to recognize D&B. i hate it when the music slows down so much that you cant dance to it. fortunelatey, i have a slo-mo move for when that happens. and slamming house music can be boring, the same beat over and over again. but slamming D&B or jungle will take you to other levels. my .02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That techno with a house fling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kramadas Posted February 7 Report Share Posted February 7 Techno DJs I like - Mistress, Hawtin, Cox, Kevin Saunderson (sp??)...heard Vath once looooong ago at Twilo - liked him then. I kinda like the bangin in your face kind of stuff...why else would I love psy trance so much?!?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
