No more Trancemissions!

Now I'm scared for the fate of HFStival!

The last minute of WHFS can be heard here (Submitted by Mike Sica): http://www.hfstival.com/elzol.mp3

Now I'm really sad. The last song they played was Jeff Buckley's "Last Goodbye." I won that CD (Grace) on their Top 11 at 11, back in 1994

Wow. What an end of an era. I grew up listening to HFS. I still remember the first time they played Nirvana, back in '91 (?) when I was in high school.

& the 10 o'clock News, where Gina Crash sang over the Fox trailer..."10 O'clock News...ten oclock news..."

how sad..

i didnt even hear about this till I listened to WTOP news. Was there anything saying they were going to go Spanish, or did they just do it last minute?

Trance-missions with Gina Crash was awesome, i liked her better than Zoltar

Zoltar was original, let me tell you all. He had a show on HFS before Gina Crash's Transmission. It was "The mutanted dance party" from 1994-1997 on WHFS. Rememeber, he played Jam and Spoon-Right in the night before anyone else did. No flame please

LOL, but I wasn't joking.

Anyway, I haven't listened to HFS in a long time due to the fact that their programming had been in decline for many years - and I really don't listen to the radio anyway.

I'm down because HFStival is one of the only mainstream events in the States that incorporates electronica acts - and now it's probably gone.

Maybe Max remember that lovely afternoon, when Dave Ralph owned the Buzz tent. I met a lot of nice people during those event. Now I wonder, who is going to pick up after WHFS. DC101? A Clear Channel Station, ummmmmmm nope!

NO, you're right. An ex-girlfriend got me listening to HFS in '91. Mutant Dance Party was hit or miss, though. Sometimes it was very good, but often times it just plain sucked.

Those were the days when Squeeze, New Order, (then later Nirvana, Soundgarden, etc.) were still considered "alternative" or "modern rock."

He did own that tent!

And Oakey wasn't too bad spinning to the crowd in RFK stadium. His wasn't the greatest set, but it was definitely a very memorable experience.

I still have my tickets

Posted by Mebot on Jan-13-2005 14:12:

I still have my own tickets. I converted two o fmy friends to trance because of the Buzz tent..

well not really conversion, but I did brighten their horizons and show them that "techno" is not just repetive 4/4 beats.. it's actually a culture and attitude.

Lieven was awesome.

Do you still have his old mixes on tape? You really should burn them to CD!

I do and I did

I can send you a copy (please note that the quality is quite horrendous, but it's not that bad...)

Considering I recorded it on a cassette back in 1998, and then just recently transfered it to a CD and .mp3...
