You're welcome

Originally posted by Lighthouse I wish you guys would have talked to be about this Stereo trip (sic)! I would have gone for sure....Stereo is THE venue to check out this caliber in terms of sound and lighting.... I'm glad you guys enjoyed it, the Toronto party was fun but as Code said, the venue could not match the sound of a real club.

I didn't know you had interest in coming! Hopefully Ricardo plays there again.

[color=ccff00]I tried to get into it, but after Ricardo's performance, it was really hard to enjoy. I found it too repetitive. Every single song felt like a banging track, and sounded similar. The place was packed and people seemed to be enjoying it, but that sound isn't really my thing anymore. I prefer the older Calderone sound of the mid-2000s (i.e. more tribal and less tech-house and techno.

I had a nap beforehand an got there at 4:30 and stayed until 7:30. I had full intention of staying all morning but I just couldn't get into it.

A Letter from Sneak:

There is no way for me to truly explain how upset I am that I missed the party on Saturday night, but I can explain what happened and how hard I tried to be there with all of you.

I flew to NYC on Friday night to play what I thought would be a quick, get in/get out, fun gig - The getting in was easy, the gig was fun, the getting out was pure hell! Saturday morning I went to La Guardia Airport ready to board the plane for a quick flight home to have an incredible night at a party I have personally been working on for months. When I got to the Airport I realized things weren't going to be so easy and was informed that an East Coast Weather Storm was creating mad delays and cancellations. After nearly 8 hours of waiting, I decided that the only way I would even have a chance to make it to Toronto would be to DRIVE, so I rented a car and hit the road. The roads were crazy but I tried to fight the storm. We made good time but once we hit the border at 4am we had more troubles, the harassing started and we were stuck there being questioned for close to 2 hours. At this point I knew I had been defeated and that I had missed the entire event.

I would like to thank everybody for their support and kind messages, I wish I could have been there to celebrate and am still in shock that I didn't make it. I promise to make it up to Toronto very soon. I know that Ricardo and Luciano did their very best to entertain Toronto and playing as a tag team all night must have been a treat. We have agreed to play together again soon, and the next time I WILL BE THERE.

I will be playing the upcoming Carnivale event with Carl Cox and can't wait to get down with Toronto. I missed you guys so much on Saturday!!

Much love and respect,

Sneak

thats cool but he should have listened to weather reports before flying to nyc lol

a day party @ sunnyside would be

Holy fuck would it ever!

Im surprised to see this event didnt get better reviews.

Firstly having a change in venue was great. the warehouse decor and lighting was pretty damn good. the sound was i guess what you would expect from a big room empty space feel. The opening dj was absolutely awful. sure your warming up to 2 big names but wow did he do a bad job. all i could hear for 40 mins was 'thud thud thud thud'.

The best news of the whole night was probably that Sneak wasnt going to play. it meant more time for both Luciano and Villalobos. Looking at the booth and seeing them both standing together nearly gave me a heart attack. back 2 back? WOW! i nearly got another heart attack when Luciano turned the sound down 10 minutes in, i was thinking if this the end im going to kill the opening dj. Thankfully the sound was back within a couple of minutes

What happened for the next 4 hours was a lesson in set building. They both started out with the typical big room sound, a lot of hard stuff. After 30 mins Luciano changed the tempo with one of his trademark instrumental tracks, the place just went off. and then another, one with Spanish vocals.. After about an hour on the decks Villalobos decided to announce himself with Butch's quiet storm. What an absolute bomb! the entire room was stunned. Villalobos went on in the night with some massive builds. His dark eery sound was absolutely perfect match to Luciano's more upbeat tracks. I stood there in shock as to how well those two complimented each other. There would be a huuuge build from Villalobos and then a typical Cadenza style track from Luciano. and the room would go crazy. so many times i saw people just holding their heads with both hands in amazement. There was a track played by Villalobos where a woman would just scream and then bammmm, just drums! Did anybody id that? Luciano just dropped massive tracks throughout the night. He really killed that place!

For the most part Luciano had control on the decks, Villalobos came in doses of dynamite. Being in Toronto the entire set really was a treat. Very easily set of the year for me. Still

i felt the same way on the boat with him on Labour day....was VERY disappointed in his set

or were they plugging their ears, trying to escape from the villalobosing they were being subjected to?

Re: You people post the worst party reviews ever.

Originally posted by Christ Fortier I don't think I've ever raged so hard reading anything online. Anybody who would call anything Luciano or Villalobos played that night "tech-house" needs to get punched in the dick with spiked brass-knuckles.Even the enfants remix Luciano dropped was pretty damn hard. If you were bored by the music they played that night you either suck at listening to music, had terrible drugs, or are the sort of retard that can't have fun at a party unless you are in a cuddle puddle sucking on a pacifier 5 pills to the wind trying to stop your jaw from clamping. The opening DJ was probably the worst fucking DJ I ever heard in my god damn life. Why he thought playing peak time techno with no melody at 1am right before luciano is fucking beyond me. As soon as luciano came on though, you know shit was going to be good. What a fucking difference a Dj makes. Thankfully the bottle service douchebags that payed 2000 dollars to sit at a formica table with a bottle of kettle one cleared out early after getting into some sort of guido fight in front of the bar. From then on it was a fucking masterclass in how to rock a crowd. I would say Villalobos killed the vibe a few times with some stuff that was a little too deep, but luciano was quick to bring it back up. At one point though villalobos was dropping gems. Ignacio - Virton was dropped at one point and a bunch of other classic shit i can't remember. Whoever said they were repeating tracks after a certain point is a god damn tone deaf idiot and obviously just took too many pills and couldn't differentiate. Black Swan was definitely the 2011 costume of the year followed by occupy wallstreet followed by feather head dresses followed by bitches in jumpsuits. Shout out to the fuckface in a sailor outfit running around touching girls asses, you're lucky you didn't get punched in the face you fucking complete loser virginlord. Left at 6:15 there was like 20 people still in there, what a fucking party. Anybody who complains musically about the night really should just stick to listening to 102.3 the edge or just listen to some fucking skrillex. Fuck you all good night.

The space could have held upwards of 3000 people (we had about 2000 at peak time). The video footage only shows a portion of the room...it's called editing

that video doesn't do the party justice imo
