2) Ferry Corsten's set: Waaaay too commercial...

maybe, but there is a reason. its because the "commercial" songs he spins are good, and because they are good that causes many people to like them resulting in them being commercial. maybe if everyone listens to the underground progressive stuff you probably listen to they will become commercial in the future as well. why does everyone hate exit? haha...

ok look im a hardcore Ferry Corsten fan, and i heard many of his live sets and love his style... it was finally his nyc debut and my expectation was high...i mean he played a good set, but it was way too commercial stuff to be honest.. nothing wrong with commercial but Corsten was banging anthems left and right.. just look at the traclkist... lethal indusrty, tenshi, out of the blue, exhale, dance valley theme 2001, and he played carte blanche in most of the venues he came to recently, so i knew that one was comin... overall i was expecting a set that had more flow, like PvD @ SF now that was 6+hrs of pure satisfaction.. bottom line i prefer Ferry's trance over PvD's but comparing his set to PvD's @ SF? no fucken question, PvD owns!(One of the best djs to hear live)disagree? i dont think so...

Originally posted by Taub it was ferrys first time in Nyc...what was he supposed to do?? i requested new songs but he said next time, you play anthems to get the crowd to like you...not that many people there even knew who he was...stop bitching, he was good and the crowd wasnt that bad..compared to tiesto

so what if it's his first time in NYC?? that doesnt mean he has to play a commercial driven set... the only good set that Tiesto played in NYC was his debut, which was 3\9\01, and the ONLY "commercial" joint he plyed was Airhead - Stanley and the ppl went nuts... i dont know maybe cuz i respect Ferry Corsten's dj skills more than Tiesto's thats why im a bit disappointed... and the crowd? it was the same exact shit as Tiesto nights(or any other exit nights), just way less...sorry but i never get good vibes from exit.. ppl just dont have any respect.whatevers.. im thru with exit. peace

Did Ferry play Autumn Tactics?


The same reason Paul always plays For an Angel, Ferry plays out of the blue or Carte Blanche. They are classics plus they are his productions. It's only normal to expect a DJ to play his own tunes.

Exit isnt bad at all if you go with people who go there for the music/same reason as you and not with people who go there to do drugs, make a circle and sit on the floor...i had a great time friday

I'm not disagreeing with you about PVD being one of the best DJ's ... but come on dude he played A LOT of anthems as well.

Not a good way to make your point ....

conf:

on a totally different note:

We all said that FC was awesome etc. but no-one ever mentioned why. So I decided to post a little story (sit back, relax):

when I first got into the club, I must say i was overwhelmed with the size. It is freaking huge compared to most places i have been to.
The musik, initally wasn't the best stuff i had ever heard, but i was thoroughly frozen, so i needed to warm up and relax a little, so i added some H2O to my system (needed the bottle for later anyhow) and started chilling a bit.

Soon after I had refilled my bottle twice, I was feeling much better and the music appeared more appealing

The suddenly, I leaned over to enigmaT, 'cause I was wondering, if I was really hearing 'Trancesetters - The Saga', when i noticed the beloved vocals 'The m0therf0cking saga continues...' That was it! I was gone..

soon after i started sweating -and was finally awake again- with The Saga, I felt another familiar beat coming up: Massive. I went even crazier, since I love this tune...

the night went on and on with some cool beats and some more relaxed stuff in between so that i could take a breather

somewhere in the 4-5 am hour, i met another guy I remembered from the PvD show, and he showed off his skillz with 'Punk'... another song I loved.

At about 6 am, after walking around a little, I was returning from the bathroom and started feeling a little tired -been up almost 24 hrs by then- and knew that I needed something 'pumpin' to get my heartrate back up and me going -and awake- again..

Then suddenly, apparently out of nowhere, I heard a set of beats, i had not heard in quite some time. I thought -it cannot be- that beat, those synths.. but yes it was 'Veracocha - Carte Blanche' I went insane.. he did some nice slowing down at the right spots and just waited for the crowd to want the reprise.. w0w.. he must have read my mind, for I was back on track and in one of the best moods ever.. it was great...

The best part was that it was followed by the dance valley theme 2001 -nice and fast- and the PUNK... omg, i died so many times, but it was a sweet death while dancing like a madman.. I loved it..

thanks Ferry, you made my weekend

Cool review drizzt81, I'm glad you had fun. So that was your first time at Exit right? Did you think it is as bad as people say it is?

i cannot really say, at first i thought it sucked, but i had fun, and that is what matter, right

I -honestly- like SF a little better, layout wise, but SF was more overcrowed than Exit...

in the end, i think it depends a lot on whom u r with and i met some awesome people at both venues.. greets to you guys

the tap water at SF was better than at Exit.. in case you care :

I apologize for extending this thread but I finally had time to sit down and reply. I was a little late getting to the club so sorry if I missed some TA's. As for the club, it was my first time there. I did not have any problems cause I was on the second level where I had plenty of space.

Is it just me or does the lighting at Exit suck really bad? And when I say suck, I mean my dog could push the controls better than the lighting guy. It is the same effect over and over again. What's worst is that it is not even in sync with the music. Seems like a 5 second delay. The lighting guy really needs to get a clue and learn how to follow trance music. Please let me know if anybody noticed this or if I'm just in a time warp smokin' some crack.

yeah the lightning wasn't really the coolest stuff ever.. kinda weird. i did not notice it that much, but in retrospect i have to agree.

the music covered it well though

So so sad....i never thought i would live to see the day when PvD would set foot inside the sound/juice/crack/factory. I must say, the night was great and it was better than i expected, but still no where near 100% PvD a la twilo (rip). Now we must deal with the fact that he is coming to Exit which is even more of a fuckin Bridge and Tunnel teeny bopper/wanna-be factory heads/staten island silver chain wearin high school. The bouncers are fuckin dicks, and they are probably gonna make everyone strip and perform full cavity searches. Forget about takin a shit in peace there, they WILL open stalls on you. Anyway, just the mention of someone like PvD becoming a fuckin resident at Exit or SF(not likely) makes me wanna puke. This really makes me realize how much our "super clubs" suck in NyC without twilo. Yes, exit is huge space wise, but thats all it has goin for it...System, staff, crowd all fuckin suck. Anyone tryin to act cool cuz they are a so called promoter for that place is in a juvenile lala land. Get over yourself, nobody really cares, and very soon you will grow up and need a real job. Last time I was there (2+ yrs) i remember snow machine and zombie nation. WEAK....im actually blown away that exit would have people like corsten, PvD, MVB....i never thought i would see anyone there except the likes of Baez or Tony Draper. If PvD is a resident at Exit, i will shoot myself. The owners of centro-fly need to expand that shit into a warehouse on the west side or something cuz that unfortunately is the best we have. That and vinyl which couldnt hold a high school prom much less an int'l DJ. If i had my way, i would have all these guys, esp. PvD, at shelter. At least they have the twilo phazon.
