biznation00 Posted June 8 Report Share Posted June 8 Sander K & Sasha review this past Dec.03 @ The Hague, NetherlandsAre you in for a celebration? Well, this night everybody was definitely up for a celebration! Whether you came to celebrate Sasha's return at Sander Kleinenberg's 'Everybody' parties after exactly 2 years, to check out the recently re-opened 'Paard van Troje' venue or to celebrate the release of Sander Kleinenberg's new Renaissance compilation. Tonight, you got all three together, a mixture, which will be remembered for a long time in Holland..And so it begins.. After playing in St. Petersburg, in Russia the day before, Sasha was here tonight, and that's all that mattered to most people. Sander was on warming up duty and knew exactly what to drop until it was time for the big man to arrive. After Sander dropped Michael Jackson's Billy Jean, a timeless tune that even sounds fresh in a DJ set today, he switched gears and slowly set off to party mode. Let's dance!Sasha started his set earlier than expected probably due to the annoying fire alarm that went off twice for no reason. Even the sound system got switched off because of this. Still a bit confused of this backstage horror, Sasha didn't start his set unnoticed, but set the vibe for the rest of the night by playing Invisible Inc's Stars. Coolaroola! From the start to the end Sasha played trance with a magical T. Somebody commented that Sasha is, without doubt, the best trance DJ on the planet. If you are able to think about this outside your own little pigeonholed box, it is very likely to be true. He is still one of few DJ's in the world that is able to bring you to a high point of no return, but the magic is to be found elsewhere. There is probably not a DJ who is able to keep you there like he can. It's not even a build-up, it goes further than that. He has the talent to play every bit of a record on exactly the right moment. Spot on!He kept the crowd up there from minute to minute, Sasha style! Mixing it together on mostly CDR's, looping and altering tracks by adding low and high effects during his set all night. Extending, then again breaking tunes down into a flawless mix of today's music. The man was working hard and was on a roll jumping up and down from minute one. The people were not up for it; they (Sander & Sasha) brought them there! Sander was walking around the stage holding signs saying stuff like: 'Do you like this tune?', 'Everybody Happy?', and the best one, 'I want to be You!' The question is do you need this kind of showcase? Well in Holland you do, the over spoiled audience in The Netherlands, sadly needs their DJ hero to jump up and down, running around, grabbing the mic to tell you.. 'You are EVERYBODY and this is... DJ SASHA!' What some expected happened in the last hour. Sasha and Sander played back to back. Together they were responsible for two of the most memorable moments of this evening. Sasha's mix of UNKLE's, In a State and one of those freakin' remakes of the White Stripes. The tunes were laid down during a time that the crowd would have swallowed anything from the Batman & Robin of today's dance music. The breakdowns in both tunes made the room too small, it exploded! Sander playing more of his big big vocal tunes and Sasha going breakbeat, a lethal combination that would have made every outside promoter eat his heart out. This forthcoming New Years Eve, they are both in New York City, with Sasha in concert at Avalon and Sander playing at Arc. Who knows what happens there? But somewhere.. in Gotham, they will hook up. So we advice you to sell your NYE ticket and save your dollar for the afterparty. Use the rest of 2003 hooking up your lovely sister or girlfriend for that matter, with the promoters of that little event. You can count on some madness with Batman & Robin fighting crime together... Oh and before we forget, to all dedicated trainspotters out there. Its not really the tracks that made it this night in Holland, its not about Sasha playing new, old, borrowed or blue, its not at all about trance, progressive or breakbeat and it will not be about all of the above on that cold winter morning on January 1st 2004 in New York City, when these two friends meet. It will all come down to timing their magic moments, the trip, the molding, the tweaking, the layering, the holding back, the feeling, the booze, the release and after that.....? HAPPY 2004 EVERYBODY!
