missionary Posted January 24 Report Share Posted January 24 Last night was a testament to the no-pain-no-gain concept. After dealing with the insane traffic entering the mega-adultainment-plex, I was almost at wits end when I walked up to the mob of people trying to get in the club. Then I almost lost it when I didn't feel like I was going to get any love from Aquabooty's door man Jaime. But after my calm inner-self took over and Jaime finally showed me some love.... the rest of the night was a pure joyride. Djinji was in his signature form when I walked in... dropping broken beat madness on the crowd and then throwing Salsa in the mix to stir up the ladies. I love Djinji's energy (Donald Glaude on speed). While some might find it outlandish, I find it inspiring. And I think the crowd was feelin it too.Osunlade took over around 2:00 and brought the crowd under his total control. For the first hour and a half of his set he swung in and out of beautiful, airy tunes and his signature tribal beats. There were a few times when he brought the energy up to a simmer, and when you thought it was about to boil over, he brought it back down to a simmer. TOTAL CONTROL!! Then after about an hour and half of teasing the crowd, it was time. He brought the level up to a boil and then turned it up even higher... subtly working techy deep house into his heavy tribal eruptions. He kept it boiling for about an hour before he brought it back down to lighter house fare that just kept the masses dancing while they reflected on the wild ride they just experienced.In summary, Osunalde played a flawless set that featured a truly unique combination of styles I've never heard in a club before. He's a true master.After Osunlade, 2 of the DHM guys took over and dropped the deepness, making me wish I had saved some energy. But I was spent, so I just laid back and watched the crowd get down.The bottom line... Aquabooty always delivers exceptional quality nightlife experiences. You just can't go wrong with Aquabooty. And they're only going to get better when they take over the terrace at Nocturnal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Djinjy did it like he does best, with amazing energy. I think this guy is turning into one of my new favs We a had great f'ing time! Thanks Joe, Tomas, and the Aquabooty crew for another amazing night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philippio Posted January 24 Report Share Posted January 24 I actually liked Djinji the best. He has so much energy when he spins and I love how he dances like a madman behind the tables! I was a bit confused to see Omar first since it was supposed to be Stephen. I won't steal bling's glory by doing a review... I just would like to personally blame nden1078 for my state of inebriation. If she had stuck with Grey Goose, celebratory affairs would not have succumbed to such clownishness.

philippio Posted January 24 Report Share Posted January 24 I really liked Gryphon except for one thing: dancefloor was not large enough. I think Joe and Tomas need to make these venue owners understand that Aquabooty parties have a big following and the vibe is such that the club needs all the dancefloor it can afford. A similar problem occured at State when Miguel Migs spun. Hopefully the floor will be larger for Jay-J (hint, hint) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
