| Originally posted by magikb When I saw this lineup a couple days ago on groove collection I was sooooooo jealous. If only I could have managed an extra 2 weeks off work I would have spent 3 weeks in Holland. Their summer Awakenings party is the one to be at. Although I wouldn't trade my experience for anything else and still would love to be there for tonight. Now that I have experienced it is something I don't want to live without. |

| Originally posted by Kate Manus Ya it looks dope for sure!! A handful of names in particular like Marko Nastic, Gayle San, Miss Djax and Pet Duo make me want to book a flight! I plan to be able to check out quite a few festivals next year though.. then it will be more a matter of coordinating it all.. no shortage of options! That lineup is not complete yet either I don't think... I expect to see another Canadian or two on the lineup |

| Originally posted by magikb well Paul always offers me a place to stay with you guys when I am in Montreal and if everything works out for me and I am there for all these festivals by May of next year, you just let me know and hopefully my place will be big enough that I can offer you a place as well for a couple of weeks |

I came across this earlier... too funny.. hehe
Kate, have you gotten your order from music head yet?
I'm going to have to place an order there...they have all of the releases I need to fill out my collection of Alex Under.
nah not yet... I just placed it not long ago and some of the titles aren't even out until next week so I imagine they won't ship it for another few days.
I can't think of the last time I placed an order that was mostly all hard techno... One of them is this fun Felix Krocher double ep that has a track on it sampling lines from Fight Club... hehe
I noticed there is a new remix of Murder was the Bass... I wish they'd let that tune retire for a few years.. another remix is so not necessary at this stage!!
Mixmag Make Minimal Their Next Big Thing
Text by Jonty Skrufff (Skrufff.com)
Mixmag dubbed minimal techno 'the hottest sound in dance' this week in a four page feature asking 'why are we going mad for squeaks and bleeps?'
The UK dance mag raved about 'the rest of the world going spastik to minimal' describing it as 'the catalyst to a resurgence in underground music that's reinvigorated clubbing all over again', just as Time Out staked a claim to be the first magazine to start the 'minimal is dead' inevitable upcoming backlash.
"Minimal: the sublime and stripped back sound of the future or is it just for wasted K (ketamine) kids at silly hours on a Monday morning," asked Time Out. "Will it be the sound of the our summer or will we be so over it be then?"
Riton ('it can be really dull') and Ben Fat Trucker ('it's already starting to look really tired') offered up the sharpest sound bites while Secretsundaze' Giles Smith ('I can see why some refer to it as boring') was more positive complaining instead that the term is already overused.
Scottish minimal maestro Alex Smoke raised the same point chatting to Skrufff last week, declaring 'everything gets called minimal, whether it's techno, electro, house or anything and it's become quite bloated as a genre definition."
"I suppose I've listened to more of what's called minimal in the last year and I've DJed some of it, but already I'm starting to play more electro and techno again,' Alex added.
"Because it's experienced such a rapid expansion it can't help but change just because you've got a lot of DJs out there now all playing the same tunes," he said.
More pics from awakenings on Friday! no sets tho 
Babs...looking a little tired from her tour?
some pics from the following night of Awakenings.... sheesh... must be nice to not only have one party of that stature as an option for the weekend.. but two!!
A rising female dj from spain.. Pelacha!
Joel is such a cutie!
The man of the party.. .Steve Rachmad! Rachmad considered it to be his best Awakenings party in years... and he has played 30 of them

I <3 mnml.
It's all I have been listening to lately. Blip Blurp Beep Squeak.
minimal's good... in small doses.
but then again, thats how I started out with DnB, and now its one of my fav. genres.
I guess as with most EDM genres, it takes some getting used to.
Although I did really enjoy Alex Smoke's EM from a little while ago. Fun stuff.
I've been listening to a lot of minimal at home, on my commute, etc. It takes the right environment to enjoy going out and hearing a whole set of it, but if done well, it's the sound I'm enjoying the most right now.
I don't think minimal will be as huge as it is now forever - but it's certainly not just a passing trend. Minimal techno is not new. What I think this focus on minimal is doing is introducing it to a wider audience with a lot of top DJs playing it, and eventually a lot of these DJs are going to be regularly playing a wide variety of sounds in their sets. Some will focus on certain aspects more than others, but generally, the recent movement of top techno DJs towards electro house and minimal is eventually going to mean in any given set we are going to hear a variety of sounds - which I think is exciting.
As with anything that becomes popular, there's a lot of crappy content that gets put out there by people trying to quickly capitalizing on the trend...but there's a lot of great stuff too, groovy, sexy, dancefloor minimal techno that can be layered and worked over and tweaked and cut and faded just like harder techno.
