What DJ wasn't in top form in 2002.

I spoke to Sneak earlier on in the night and made the mistake of thanking him for bringing Ricardo to Toronto He was well on the way by that point, and said the after-party would be above a kebab shop on Peter and John...but that is not even an intersection!

I've been there! it's right next to what was formerly circa/lucid/playdium, above the middle-eastern place... they usually just do private events but there was one party put on by Locol there last spring that was aboslutely bananas. i took some friends who don't usually dig that scene and since then they haven't stopped asking me when the next event at this venue is. frankly i would love to see someone (anyone) book something (anything) there soon, it was awesome and very low-pro

lineup was mc flipside, jason hodges, loopity goofs, chris vench, g. cue and miz megs. what a night

I went to hear Sneak there on Canada Day (it's john and adelaide, basically a door or two up from hooters on John), I'm not surprised that's where he said it was going to be...however did it actually happen?

Awesome at the afterparty place. Cool beans.

I went to one or two Milkrun and Box of Kitten jams, those are so amazing compared to a lot of the 'regular' club parties we go to...mostly because the people are so friendly AND they space them out so they're not every weekend.

sorry, why? if that's what made that person begin to like and follow that DJ, why not share it with everyone else? this is a music forum? It may be hype material for that person.

If someone wants something more recent, they will find it.

Sure I understand DJs change their style along the way, but its still them.

Ok, so Villalabia sucked - all 17 pages of it confirmed it. But Fries and Bridges were awesome.

And Phil Weeks and DJ Mes destroyed "Our House" the next night. Word on the street is that Hector Moralez will be spinning at "Our House" this Friday, Nov 12th 2010... so people that were at the party, they can contest how good quality he truly is.

So yeah, real night of beats, without all the bullshit propaganda, no $50 cover charge either, no attitude... it's very laid back. And that should sort of answer the question of the title of this thread.

What could be better? Well, a night out with Hector Moralez. lol

Sooooo very excited for this Friday!

lol, gotta love reality setting in to a bunch of lemmings. Anyone with half a brain, that doesnt follow hipster hype would tell you that attending this night would be a joke. Comon, this flamer looks a mess behind the decks 9 out of the 10 times hes attempting to spin. He most likely has a major hearing impairment to go with a longstanding coke addiction.

As for the venue, the place is a mess. Their concept is standard fair in Toronto's scene in 2010. They will be 6 feet under in a year, maybe 2.

LoL

The question was to post an impressive RV set.....imo that set from 2002 is a pretty solid one of his, i don't really see whats wrong with posting it up lol

But i agree with you about the roll calls and hype materials, posting recent stuff would help give an idea of what to expect. It can be a challenge though with certain djs as some are quite reluctant to allow their sets to be recorded often...

sooo that means that for the past 8 years RV has been shit? cos that's the impression I would get post a good 2009/2010 set - now we're talking of course like you said - not all Dj's release their stuff freely.. even radio shows are a poor indicator of how good/bad the Dj is

LoL I posted a 2010 set right after

And yeah i see what your saying, that set just jumped to mind right away

+1 to this. Getting hyped up for an event doesn't necessarily have to be hype about the DJs current sound, it could be getting hyped to see the DJ period.

For instance, I really like old Sasha sets, and you can pretty much guarantee that I will probably throw on an old Sasha set on the 26th to get me pumped to see him at TiL.

If you thought that set from 2002 was a classic one then why shouldn't you post it? Who says that hype material has to be from the last year?

If people are seeing a DJ for the first time and want to hear what a DJ spins and there's no recent sets in the roll call, there's nothing stopping them from searching current sets online, or asking someone to post a new one.

did you miss out on the roll call? I didn't mean generally sharing great old sets, we have download threads for those

esp. in the context of this thread when 2 people already said they haven't heard anything good from RV, then someone posts a 2002 set - how's that even helpful? like RJ said - even Tiesto was good in 2002...

as I said already, it may be hype material for the person who posted the set in the roll call

what is one person's hype material may not be another person's hype material.... kinda like how one person's opinion may very well differ from another person's opinion

I was actually going to post one of my favourites in the roll call if I remember to upload it... the Maida Vale EM from 2005....

Maybe you shouldn't. That would be disobeying roll call rules

You should change your account to 40 posts per page. It'd make things go a lot quicker

Gutted Even though he was in a drunken stupor, I should have paid more attention to Sneak and tried to check it out. I even had a little fold-away map for an early-morning recce mission! I told you I came prepared

When you see Sasha, there is no way you can omit that seminal Ableton mix from the hype material. That is the thing with roll calls, you are not trying to be reasonable and balanced, especially when the whole point is to market and sell an event to within an inch of its existence!
