dialectics Posted April 21 Report Share Posted April 21 i wuz there....the crowd was a little shady (lots of muscleheads, people trying to pick up, and some very aggressive people with bad attitudes) and it was waaaaay too hot, but the music was unreal - go space girl!!!!!!!!lots of great trance, funky house (and don't forget the hardcore room!)... really good vibes once you left the main floor. when space girl was setting up, she accidentally played a note from "something for you mind"... the whole crowd went insane - she played some new stuff (even something that sounded like it could pass for happy hardcore) but the real treat was when she belted out "dream your dreams"... u should have been there!peaz,rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClubKid77 Posted April 22 Report Share Posted April 22 How could she "accidently" have played a portion of "something from your mind" while setting up? I have always heard from various sources that she is pre-recorded, although i didnt attend the party that seems to enforce that rummor.

dialectics Posted April 23 Report Share Posted April 23 the DAT thing may be true.. i don't know. but why go through the hell of setting up all of those keyboards and pretending to play? especially when the limelight dj booth is raised and if she was up there nobody would have known wtf she was doing, while she set up where everyone could see what she's doing?she had an ms-2000 up there, which costs somewhere around 8-900. and 2 other keyboards, and a mixer. why bring that if you're just going to fake it?peaz,rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClubKid77 Posted April 23 Report Share Posted April 23 I can tell you this, my friend works for sympty, and the word from him is at one of the countdown's where she was booked she had all her equip set up on the stage, but there WAS a dat there and she couldnt get it working, she gave them some excuses and refused to go on sayin her equipment wasn't working.

dialectics Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 um, yes... i stayed for the whole set. (if she actually played live) she was fukkin awesome! i didn't like one of the new songs she played (it sounded too childish) but other then that it was good stuff.come to think of it, there WAS something shady goin on with spacegirl at boo 5 in october.... i don't really remember exactly what happened (actually, i don't remember much of that night) so don't quote me on this... but i think her "performance" was just someone up there spinnin her stuff. anyone know what went down that night?however, i still don't think it makes sense to fake a live performance when it is much easier to fake being a dj... nobody needs to know you can't beatmatch if nobody actually hears what's coming from the record! you can turn some knobs and dials and make it look like you're working really hard... especially when the dj booth at limelight is out of sight! ah well, how many licks DOES it take to get to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie pop? rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dialectics Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 awesome... i'm personally hoping she's legit. otherwise, i'd be as sad as the day i found out milli vanilli wasn't singin! (j/k)hahaha i saw 'unknown planet' at one of the listening stations in the virgin store on 14th. coolies!the worst part about boo5 was the "east coast" room, which basically was a hallway with a dj - no lights, awful sound, it was horrible. that and they wouldn't let us bring cameras in - 'cause they were selling them inside!for us, it is about love, fun and music.... but let's not forget the amazing allure of the $$$$ that 5,000 screaming ravers paying $30 a ticket (plus $5 waters!) brings.... cheers to the crews who will go the extra mile to make sure we have a great experience!peaz,rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dialectics Posted April 25 Report Share Posted April 25 hmmmm... i wonder what ever DID happen to sandra collins that night? SHADY!too many rumors float around parties (like the one about sasha getting into a car accident so he couldn't go on at ultra in miami) as far as faking it on the keyboards (as opposed to turntables) it is simply a matter of timing. even with arpeggiators that latch, you can tell when someone really isn't playing when you're up close simply by when they hit the notes. just think about how fake that stuff always looks in the movies! note played + no sound == fake. also, it doesn't take much music theory to know when someone's playing a real chord or if they're just hitting the first keys they can find.i'll pay extra attention to it next time... then *finally* i'll have the issue settled... at least in my head until then, i'll give her the benefit of the doubt.peaz,rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retoxic Posted April 25 Report Share Posted April 25 I'm not a fan of space girl but it doesn't surprise me if she played off dat..most artists do this because its too hard/risky to try and play 100% live. Usually they play off dat and add a little bit live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
