laraver Posted January 29 Report Share Posted January 29 DJ Elevate couldn't mix with if he had a blender. I heard him open up a couple of weeks ago for the main floor and it was an embarrasment. His sound levels were all over the place, he was playing peak hour tracks at the beginning of the night. Overall the set had no continuity, no flow, it was simply a mish mosh of what he thought was hot, with no development of the energy. He shot his wad in the first 45 minutes and it was all down hill from there.If that is your idea of a good DJ you better get your cracked out ass into rehab.Either that or you can take some toilet papaer and wipe your nose off, because you have far too much time up Elevate's ass. I understand that the TRANCE-IT AUTHORITY will not be coming back to Tunnel any time in the foreseeable future. Major mistake! Props to Corbett, his sound was mature, smooth. The set was well programmed allowing the energy to build, flow, transform and take different directions as the night progressed. Corbett that is something these young pups can't even begin to understand. Much respect and good luck on your return to the scene. Hope you liked the mix that was dropped on you Saturday @ the Tunnel. Your feedback and comments are welcome.[This message has been edited by laraver (edited 01-29-2001).][This message has been edited by laraver (edited 01-31-2001).] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

secret Posted January 31 Report Share Posted January 31 LARAVER - YOU KNOW WHAT THE DIFFERENCE IS THOUGH BETWEEN YOU'RE LAME ASS AND THE ONE'S YOU LISTED? THEY HAVE FUCKING WORK!!!! I'M NOT GOING TO STAND HERE AND WRITE A NOVEL THAT YOU SEEM TO WRITE EVERY POST, BUT I WILL SAY THIS: I'VE NEVER HEARD OF YOU BEFORE OR THE TRANCE-IT-AUTHORITY UNTIL YOU HAD EVEN THE SLIGHTEST ASSOCIATION WITH THE TUNNEL...THAT SAYS SOMETHING: YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE YOUR TALENT BELONGS. YOU CLAIM YOU HAVE IT...SO GO PUT IT TO USE SOMEWHERE WHERE IT'LL BE RESPECTED. TEARING APART MANAGEMENT AND MAKING FUN OF "KIDS" WHO RUN NIGHTCLUBS JUST MAKES YOU LOOK LIKE A SPITEFUL LOSER. AND WHAT MAKES IT EVEN MORE PATHETIC, IS THAT THESE SO CALLED "KIDS" HAVE APPRENTLY SENT YOU ON YOUR MERRY WAY, SO NEXT TIME YOU OPT TO MAKE FUN OF SOMEONE, BETTER REALIZE THAT YOU ANSWER TO THEM!!!-SECRET.

secret Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 I thought the Tunnel was slamming Saturday night. DJ Corbett was amazing. I can't wait to see who this "mystery" DJ is this Saturday. As long as it isn't those 45 year old losers the "Spank It Authority". I think the crowd was also a lot better looking than in the past. Whoever is running the show over there is doing a damn good job. Keep up the good work guys!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dramablos Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 I was suprised to see such a hot crowd on hand. The Tunnel seems to be taking a turn away from all the bad-rep it's gotten in the past and moving ahead in a fresh direction. Good job to all of you who have been running the party and best of luck to you all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djspecialk Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 My first post!!! I was at the Tunnel 2 weeks ago and thought that ish was hot as hell!!! The girls were talented, the guys were dressed to impress and hell even the few stray mo's from Kurfew were chillin and having a good time. I heard Anthony Nero was going to be there in a few weeks. Does anybody know where I can find that out? Much love to whoever is in charge of the Tunnel now. It's never looked better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laraver Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 SECRET - Once more you demonstrate your ignorance. Just because you never heard of somebody means they don't have talent?I'll be glad to demonstrate my skills any time any place.From over 500 submissions I was one of only 8 DJ's chosen to spin in the last years ClubPlanet spinoff. I did not know anybody on the ClubPlanet staff, I didn't have any friends posting stuff on the boards to create false hype. I wnated it that way so that if I was chosen it was for recognition of my skill, not because I knew the "right" people.My mixes can be found on RaveWorld.net, GrooveRadio.com, Epitonic and Madsounds, Clubradio.net, Epitonic.com and BroadcastAmerica.com.In the June 2000 issue of Mixer (The one with Tenaglia and Digweed on the cover) my Mix CD charted at 2 out of 10 on the buzz chart. It charted ahead of Paul Van Dyk's album release "We Are Alive". Do any of your DJ friends have a record or compilation that has achieved that degree of recognition.I have been invited played alongside Timo Maas, Leon Alexander, Terry Lee Brown Jr, DJ Disciple. I've worked in major clubs in NY, Chicago, and LA. I could write a novel about how some DJ's get work based not on actual skill, but based on the fact that they know the right people. If you try to say this isn't how it works, again you would be showing your ignorance. Not detracting from any of the DJ's, but as an example how many people in LA, Chicago, Denver, or Salt Lake City ever heard of Corbett? (And Corbett is a DJ who has very good skills. Corbett you understand that I am not saying anything negative here about you, I am just saying that having a name is not the same as having skill. That you have skills is obvious to anyone the first time they listen to you.)You really should just shut up now, because everytime you post all you do is demonstrate how small minded and ignorant you really are.Anyway Good Luck With ItYou Favorite ClubPlanet Member - LARAVER Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
