ben140's post about TBA Bk above is actually their Fri. early line-up, not Thursdays.

Live performance by Winter Darling
That overwhelming yet insatiable sense of yearning one gets as they long for a new lover. The desire to be in their arms, the want for their touch, the urge to smell and taste them over and over. The need to be fulfilled, even if you know it will be at the cost of self sacrifice. That thirst a person feels so strongly that they think it nothing to surrender themselves. This passion of a vampire-esque love that runs deep into your soul is the inspiration behind the song �Dark Kiss�.
Join Nova27 Records & Static Bookings at TBA in Williamsburg, Brooklyn on Thursday Feb 27th as they celebrate the release of the Dark Kiss remixes, including one by 2x Grammy winning TheisMix. Winter Darling will also be in the house that night to sing the track live.
Yes cars, totally botched that post - it's Friday night happy hour time- ends at 11pm

Yep, this is going to be excellent tonight.
I'm really curious about the crowd / tickets not really moving it seems. Wondering how packed it's going to get tonight, but will certainly be there from 10pm on!
Really, walked away shaking your head?
It's just music and to be honest, most people in the scene aren't as into it as most of the people on this forum. Doesn't mean they're idiots or lame or whatever...
Love the FL and NYC forums but sometimes the level of pretentiousness is a bit over the top...

I was referring to what SebG said. Look I don't want to start a flame war, I actually really like this forum. I'm from Florida, not NYC, but it's a good read in here nonetheless.
I just think, instead of having the attitude where you're put off by people who may not be as knowledgeable as as you in the realm of techno, maybe it's better to say "hey check out Interface, if you like dark, banging techno, it could be your thing."
I see both sides when I go out: the people who really are ignorant as to the music (but in most cases they ARE having a good time, and isn't that what's most important -- and we're not talking about Avicii shows here either), and then the people who use their vast knowledge and experience in the scene as a shield to seem cool. I don't want to say anyone is actually like that in this thread but it can come off that way.
Let's just have a good time and not worry about someone's knowledge (or lack thereof) of the music. We all had to start some place. In 2009 I didn't know what the fuck an Armin Van Buuren was let alone shit like Interface.

Last night was brilliant. Reverse layout again like the klockworks label night, I really like the switch. Ben took 30 minutes or so to get started- I really liked his dark atmospheric, gritty intro tracks. The way he mixes through songs is truly something else. He was using 3cdjs and 2 vinyl decks. The flow he gets into is no joke.
Great seeing vicious, aystar, and finally got to meet xpander.

Agreed the sound was slightly off, although still crisp and loud. I'm no loudspeaker expert but the "sub" or bass horn in the front (or in last nights case-the back) doesn't pump out low-mid like a 12 or 15 inch. Maybe it's the very low end? Same case with the stacks near the booth. I need to do some research. I think the sound was even more off last time for klockworks night, or I at least remember being bothered by the lack of volume or something.
Ben had the chunky scarf on in the beginning and the nag champa incense going all night. Swag.
Line of the night goes to aystar for telling some obnoxious dude that he was selling crack, 2 for 5.
Met some cool people last night. Good crowd
just to pop in belatedly as to ucf's comment:
I fully agree with the general point, but this specific case is different.
the guy who said that does not have to know Droid or the roster of droid, that happens, you can still ne into techno. all the more fun to make new discoveries.
and it would certainly be a fair statement to make say, finally, some real or good techno, when hearing Liebing do his stuff.
But where I'm totally with Seb is when this comment is made ABOUT music thats played AT Output.
That statement shows total ignorance of all the good and great techno there since the opening.
Either the commenter hasn't been to Output more than a handful of times, in which case HE's being pretentious, esp. because the obvious ignorance is so plain to see for a lor of people who know better from own expetience.
should have just kept mouth shut, and Seb's disbelief is totally on point.
Or, the guy HAS been to Output plenty, but then you're still in which WTF mode, because you have to ask, what was he hearing, and what dyes he think techno is?
(and it wouldn't be the hardcore Berghain crowds attitude we discussed a while back, because to them CLR is too commercial to be real techno, amongst other labels they see same way...)
Anyway glad to hear there was another Klock masterclass last night.
Funny I never had any sound issues with the reverse set up last time, in fact I remember thinking that I was NOT hearing the differences I had expected when nor facing forward to the mains.
bass of the lowest Freq's is pretty non directional, something you can notice at Pacha and their asymmetric bass battery set up.
(course, I rarely park myself smack in the middle of the front horn, or in floor central for that matter...)
