Hi-
Just wanted to let you know that Motion Notion this year was the best party I've ever been to. I thought it was good last year, but this year was amazing!!! and I know all my friends are in agreement.
-Jenny Baker
i think that alot of people are fairly apathetic and don't realize how amazing an experience like motion notion can be...... what an amazing weekend it was.. the psy-trance at an outdoor party really allows for one to make a spiritual connection with this universe and I thank you for putting on a party and creating an environment that is literally a parallel universe when compared to the mundane regular existence that we are so often forced to come back in to. Thanks so much.
-RD Murray
the parties you throw are always very meaningful to me. they are long lasting memories which affect the way i feel, think, act, live, love, etc.
i want to thank you for the environments you create in which people are comfortable and influenced to grow and discover themselves in new ways.

Hey Katalyst...
Just wanted to write a note to say how entirely wicked this past weekends party was...Motion Notion....I'm Australian & have been going to parties on and off since i was 16 so that would be over 10 years now and without a word of exaggeration this was the best party ive ever been too.....It completely blitz's everything....And just when you thought your life couldn't get any better and had settled for less....My friends and i arrived at about 12 midnight Friday night to the enchanted lanterns, amazing art and visual projections and party atmosphere....Ive never been to such a friendly event....I loved how chilled everyone was during the day....On Saturday floated about peacefully in the river to the wicked tunes flowing from the sound-system and after sat writing by the banks in the shade amongst the trees eating oranges and watermelon bought from the vendors....It was too nice....The place was so clean and so un-dusty compared to other outdoor events ive been to in Aussie....I was completely blown away as well by how well organized everything was....All the workshops and films (Amazing selection) and the cleanliness of everything....Always loo paper and the water tent where there was free, cold, fresh water....A far cry from some parties where they shut off the washroom taps so you can purchase overpriced bottles of water....Mmmm just wanted to share my happiness and express appreciation for the best weekend of my life....So big thumbs up and cheers....I hope i can be in Canada for another one....Thanks heaps....

This is such a great festival and so many people who have never been exposed to electronic music would be sure to find this a great introduction.
- Morgan Skowronski
Great job, James. This was my first event of this kind ever, and I
certainly attended the right one. The music and scene just elevated me to a spiritual level, and I danced for the first time like it was the last time, forever, alone, just me, the music, ultimate reality/God. I'm sure you don't get as much recognition as you deserve for this, but if it means anything, I think you accomplished what you set out to do. Can't wait for Sonic Playground!

I think the venue is absolutely perfect...it's large enough to have lots of space to roam around in, and yet the party is contained in the space. The riverside tent was absolute genious by the way. Very, very cool trail down to the river and the decorations were beautiful. I have to say Katalyst puts on the absolute BEST parties, hands down. All the effort you put into Motion Notion clearly makes it, in my opinion, THE party to go to of the year. I know my friends and I had an absolutely amazing time, and we're all counting down until next year (as we did last year).
I enjoyed every single dj there, there was not one moment where I thought "this music sucks, lets check out the other tent", which happens frequently at most large parties. For me, the music was absolute heaven, with the perfect mix of prog house and psy trance. The visuals were so amazing that I don't even have the words to explain.It's hard to suggest what could possibly top this year's party, I thought it was perfect. The price is extremely fair, for an entire weekend of great music, lighting, camping, river, etc. I met people that drove all the way down from Winnipeg for it, so that tells me something is working. I hope you don't change much about the party. The vibe on both nights was very different...fri seemed more of a "crazy party night", sat was way more trippy and psychedellic, and I thought that was an awesome combination. Great idea to not have the main stage going all day on Sat too...it's nice to have a break from the music to chill out...and people can still dance at the riverside tent if they want to.
Anyways, thanks again for the BEST weekend I've had all summer, and I'm looking forward to next years!

Dear Katalyst
I thought motion notion was absolutely amazing! The music was stellar and the vibe was fantastic. I also liked the idea of having very underground performers rather than booking "Insert British Superstar DJ Here" and charging 150 bones. Rangeton park was also an amazing location and the weather? Could not have been better. I know at least two dozen people--rock and roll types
included--who would have had a total blast...next year, I' m bringing more friends!
Thanks,
Jered Stuffco
I think if you keep doing what your doing its going to get bigger and bigger...werd of mouth is what it takes. Shambalah is the same way....I have to say you did a great job on variety of music I know that was a key factor in alot of my friends going this year. I totally enjoyed Motion Notion this year and have already convinced a number of people who didn't come this year to go next year....so I'll see ya at sonic playground and next year same place!
-Kareena
PS this should have been first.....THANKYOU very much for throwing one of the best parties I've been to in a long time!
The lighting and visuals were amazing, the music was great every day at pretty much every stage, and there was just an awesome vibe. You guys definitley fixed all the problems that occured last year (music playing to long, general disorganization), And everything came together this year. I think next year will be the best yet because word of mouth will travel and i bet twice as many people come! So, Thank you for such an amazing party and i will be defintely be out to support it again next year.
Genevieve
The only request I have is that Motion Notion is kept in the same spot (Rangeton Park) because truly I think you have the perfect place for the music to be played. The beats that bounce off the clouds and the energy that comes from this is truly phenomenal. I would also just like to say that you played a wonderful set this year. It was just a perfect way to start off our Saturday!!! Thank you so much for that and thank you so much for putting on this event. This was my second year and I will continue to come every year and bring as many people as possible, because I really think that noone should miss this.Take care.......peace out,
Ginger
This will have been the party of the year for me, the location was fckn spectacular, weather was amazing, good vibes throughout and the music lineup was quite impressive (being a breaks fiend i don't usually like most of the thumping 4/4 played) with psy, breaks and even trip hop (props again on your set james, definately different which is lacking in most sets)

James Katalyst:
My name's Matt Kuefler. I've attended the last three MNs and I have to say that I don't believe that there is anything that you guys can improve on. Every year I come back you guys blow my mind bigger, better, and in ways you can't imagine. You guys had great music, great shows, great DJs, and even better staff. You created such a warm atmosphere that everyone I talked to said that the only thing they didn't like about the weekend was packing up Sunday morning. This last point about the people was the most important part of my weekend. You guys managed to attract the right people to the right place, at the right time.
In conclusion, thank you. MN was the best weekend I've had all summer, and those that travelled with me have said the exact same. They would also like to extend their appreciation and thanks for such an amazing weekend. Keep it up! I'll most definitely see you guys next year if not at Sonic. Have fun, and keep partying for the people.
Sincerly,
Matt Kuefler

I am AT this event... buying my 3 day pass on the next paycheque... This is gonna one crazy ass event... I can't wait for this Massive.. Astral Projection.......
FUcking amazing..
Is there any transportation from Mayerthorpe to the festival? I have to go by bus, and I'd rather not walk the 30km to the event 
Any options that are available, please let me know.
If you take the bus to evansburg it would be much easier to hitch hike from there.
I'm 110% there.
Whoo, Astral Projection!
I am so psyched for this, heading down i a van fulla people. I can't wait to see DJ Treavor from the moontribe as well, it will be amazing.

Wicked, this sounds like the shiz. It's a bummer that I have no friends that would be willing to go . Have fun guys!
eh man, what kind of excuse is that, I was going to attend by myself a lot farther in distance than edmonton up until 1 week ago when I convinced a person I barely knew it would be an awesome time.
Head out and meet some new friends!
