Going to Cancun

Yey!, i'm going to cancun in 41 days (august 26th) to an amazing 5 star resort called the Riu Cancun



i'm looking so forward to this, and the best part is i don't even have to leave the trance world behind!!!...they actually have a club there that plays techno called la boom! when i read they played techno, i thought it prolly meant the misinterpretation techno...but i went to the website of the club and on the top 10 list, i saw randy katana - one solid wave) so they're actually up to date with there list...wow, fun in the sun, and EDM, and one week with my GF ...couldn't ask for anything more!

oh ps. i also have a liquir dispenser IN OUR ROOM, equiped with vodka, rum, tequila, and carona!!!

Nice!

I was in Cancun at the end of March......had a blast!!
Riu is where I wanted to stay, but it was too pricy.

You are going to have a blast........if you have time, make sure you check out The City - New club by MTV.....I saw Luke Fair and Sasha there....it is an amazing club.

Have a great time!

u lucky bastard!

Thanks Guys...yeh, it is a bit pricey, we actually got a good deal on it compared to what it normally costs...it was 1000+200 taxes...so $1200. We've seen this resort priced at 1500-1700 b4. so we are saving some money.

We do have a minifridge restocked in our room, but i'm not lying, we actually do have a liquir dispenser IN OUR ROOM!!! lol



this is in your room too

Posted by RobbyG. on Jul-16-2004 17:34:

Thumbs up Aaah....Cancoooon

Went there many moons ago for 2 weeks & stayed @ the Cancun Plaza which was the cheapest BUT comfy hotel...Funny thing was that our hotel was blasting tunes at poolside the whole time we we're there ...The first club we hit that nite was LA BOOM and that was an awesome venue...It was like the Guv BUT better...I barelly got ANY sleep the whole time I was there too and so I was actually wanting to come home after 10 days...2 weeks was WAY too long to party...

You'll have a blast

Rob

The music at La Boom doesnt' look that good to me;

quote:

1. Deep Dish - Flashdance (Original Mix)

2. Mario Ochoa - Hot Muzik

3. Hoxton Whores - Two Fat Guitars

4. Hoxton Whores vs Jungle Brothers - You're In My Hut Now

5. Mario Ochoa - Cherokee (A Side) / Blue Sound (Tweaker Freaker Mix)

6. Cinderella - Where's My Shoe (Danny Tuval Big Room Mix & Zigi's Club Mix)

7. Base Caleta - Estan Vivos (Dj Fist Rising Mix)

8. Hatiras - MoNEY SHOT (ANTOINE CLAMARAN MIX)

9. Crystal Waters - Gipsy Woman 2004 (Tonio & Deep-r Hard Drum Mix)

10. Drummers Of Love - the thrut


However, according to This source


quote:
At its busiest times more than 3,500 can be present at any one time and turnover of guests sometimes gets as high as 10,000 people in a night.
One of the most popular spring and summer break clubs the club organises a weekly program of special events with guest superstar DJ's. 2002 saw DJ performances from MTV's DJ Skribble, DJ Clue, and European legends Judge Jules and Paul Van Dyk. Eminem and Dr Dre have played here several times during spring break. Theme nights every night of the week, such as Male Hot Body (Wednesday) and the famous Bikini Contest (Friday). Specialising in techno, house and the latest dance music the dance floor is split level, the open bar is definitely recommended - good service, strong drinks and close to the action unlike some of the other clubs in Cancun


That would be kewl to go down there and see PVD! Especially with this going on:


Other famous DJ's that appear at this club are: "RICK MORILLO, HARRY CHOO CHOO ROMERO, JOSE NUNEZ,THAT KID CHRIS, JONATHAN PETERS, DJ SKRIBBLE, BENJI SOLIS, DONALD GLAUDE, ANNE SAVAGE, GEORGE ACOSTA, JOHNNY VICIOUS, PAUL VANDYK, JUNIOR VASQUEZ, BAD BOY BILL, LOUIE DE VITTO & CHRIS FORTIER."

It looks like this place gets good reviews though:

This Place gives it 4.5 stars out of 5.
This Place gives it 4 out of 5

I�ve never been to Cancun (actually, I�ve never been more south than New York state), but I�m at work and I was bored. Good luck with your trip� just too bad you have to bring the girlfriend along.

After doing all this research, I want to go!


Posted by djbruuen on Jul-16-2004 22:41:

thanks for the tips buddy!!!...yeh i have a tendency of researching stuff i have no relation to either if i'm just sitting around bored hehe...actually i think that top 10 list is great! you know why? cause its not top 40 shit that i was expecting i'd have to hear at every club while i was down there. looks like some good house music on that list!!! i know what you mean with the gf thing when its like a freakin striptease down there haha...but i know i'll have tons of fun down there, and since shes really hot, thats good enough for me!!!

Thumbs up

You need to check out "The City", it is one of the best clubs that I have ever been to. It's brand new and just opened in March. :P

http://www.thecitycancun.com

They don't play trance everynight and we actually ended up going twice, and the second time we caught a bit of everything (hiphop, trance, Mexican music ) So if you have a club guide (usually one at every resort) they'll let you know what kind of music is going on for a specific night. Have an amazing time! I wish I was going back


Posted by petro on Jul-19-2004 02:09:

cancun is pretty good, but i didnt find any "techno" clubs

i walked in Daddy-Os a few times, heard some beats..but that didnt last too long, its mostly top-40, rap/rnb, and the occasional gino anthem...but lets face it, thats not the reason why people go there, its all about the drunken wimmin


Posted by TranceKitten on Jul-19-2004 03:13:

Ahh Memories!!
Cancun, I absolutely LOVE cancun!! The best place I've been to party or relax or both.
I was there in February and stayed in a resort closed to La Boom, we could just walk to it in 5mins, we could also walk to the downtown where all the other clubs are such as Coco Bongos and The City, which opened the weekend we were there, so we went on the opening night, they were still building stuff behind the club, which I supposed they finished by now. Those 3 clubs rock!!! They are the biggest I went to there, also went to Fat Tuesdays and Se�or Frogs, which are good clubs too, what I liked about Fat tuesdays was that you can party outside right by the beach, which is great but it gets a bit too packed there (spring break)

Well you are gonna have tons of fun! and if it helps to know....I'm so jealous!!

Make the best of it!!!!


Posted by ChadVanDyk on Jul-19-2004 03:20:

I've been to Cancun twice...both during Spring Break...and was actually there for one of PVD's shows in 2002 at La Boom...absolutely incredible time...still have the poster in my room. The ice cannons at Dady-O's and La Boom are to die for. Hot, sweaty, pounding dancefloor completely obliterated by a rush of cold air...It has to be experienced to be believed. Only other place I've seen the cannons is Amnesia in Ibiza.

P.S. When I was there, both Dady-O's and La Boom played nothing but EDM from 2 onward....clubs didn't close until like 6.


Posted by djbruuen on Jul-19-2004 06:40:

thanks for all the kind words and clubs tips guys!!! i really appreciate it!...ps. do you remember which nites of the week you got all EDM on???


Posted by Kris on Jul-19-2004 13:28:

i've been to cancun 4 times, and 3 times the week you're going - last week of august!



it's a great time, lots of people (mostly toronto though) but the clubs are insane.. when we were there Jimmy Van M & Chris Fortier played laboom, but that was during the gay/lesbian/tranny night so we decided against it..



Daddyo's plays alot of tribal house monday's and alot of trance on friday's... laboom not so much, its more cheesed out now..


if you feel safe doing this, talk to some cabbie's or younger waiters at the hotels.. they always have crazy beach raves that play alot of psy trance (well that's all they play at the raves) that i've heard are amazing..


Alot of my friend's are going there again this year, i was supposed to go but can't get the time off work... i've also heard many good things about your hotel... if you need anymore help pm me or add me on msn... i like to consider myself a cancun expert especially that time of the year you're going!

When I went to the City and saw Sasha & Luke Fair, it was on a Monday and I don't recommend going on a Friday (it was a mix of all types of music). I can't speak for the other clubs though.
