Fave Party Highlights 2005

A few of my fave parties this year:

5am feat. Christopher Lawrence @ Room 680 ... trance the way it supposed to be played. Amazing set!
UNIFY feat. Ronski Speed @ Altitude ... it is still possible for a trance party to have an excellent vibe from start to finish
Chinese Laundry feat. Deetron @ Public Office .. 3 decks wizardry and DJM600 abuse central.
Transatlantic 7 feat. Collabs @ The Metro ... The legendary 5 hour set! Whoever said techno is dead, you obviously wasn't there!
John Digweed @ QBH ... A living proof that once you got to that stage when you're a superstar DJ, you don't need to look at the crowd (not even once) to get the party going.
Obsession #1 & #2 @ Room 680 ... we all loved it, apparently Dr. P didn't. who cares what he thinks anyway.

Special mentions:

Thrillseekers @ The Cage .... everybody misbehaved in their own special way that night!
Unicycle 2 ... always a memorable one!
Private Function feat. Chris Meehan @ Altitude ... "what is prog?"


what's yours?

each day i hate tachyon just a little bit more

nickson (begic & mangler), bexta & steve hill would be my fave (and only) parties this year


honourable mention: pana & oztiesto in canberra

edit: dishonourable mention: jewelz. what a piece of shit.

Christopher Lawrence - top notch set, one of the most original I've seen this year
Ronski Speed - Great set, great vibe, APPALLING SOUND all night; you could stand right in the middle of the dance floor and clearly hear conversations all around you, it was that quiet.
Obsession #1 - fabulous big-room feel during Mr Strangis' set. Lots of fun.

My highlights:

Infected Mushroom @ Metro - This was by far the best party on Labour Day Eve. IM completely blew my mind.
Chris Fortier @ Private Function, Platform One - The whole spectrum of deep progressive music, finishing with Sarah McLachlan, James Holden, the Chems and the Killers. Top stuff.
Habersham & Numinous @ Sunny, Brown Alley - Normally their style of prog/breaks is not my thing, but it was twisted and delicious, served up with a great Sunny vibe.
BT @ Godskitchen - A great party set. He played to the masses, and the masses loved it. Love Comes Again ftw!!!
Astrix & Protoculture @ Earthcore - Blissful, driving, uplifting and a little bit different. Uplifting trance without the same old sounds.

01 - James Zabiela @ Field Day, Sydney. Best set and best day party in Sydney evar.

03 - Two Tribes Sydney. THE PRODIGY & M.I.K.E tore off the roof at the Sydney Superdome. Jan Johnston tore off some shower curtains or something to make her outfit.

05 - Trancetribe: The Event. Top night catching up with regulars.

06 - Fri ~ Deep Dish & Danny Howells @ Academy, Canberra. Danny Howells, hot following the release of GU027, hit Canberra with some smooth prog. Deep Dish reaffirmed their place amongst the dj ranks by starting off their 4-hr set with The Star Wars Imperial Death March
Sun ~ Deep Dish & Danny Howells @ The Hordern, Sydney. Big BIG event, but Canberra did it for me.

11 - Digweed @ Home. Finally caught the master in action. Wasn't that impressed by the 5-hr set (wasn't no GKGG EM) but that rounds off the big names that I've wanted to see.

12 - Renaissance Weekend.

Renaissance Summer Ball @ Home ft Sasha, Zabiella and Fanciulli. Wicked sets, even crazier versus sets - JZ vs NF in the terrace ZOMG THIS IS SICK I DIE, and then JZ vs Sasha vs NF closing. Did Sasha REALLY drop a remix of Madonna's "Hung Up" at 7am?! FO SHEEZY.

if that night wasn't paramedics material already... the following afternoon...

The Garden Renaissance @ Slip Inn ft. Desyn Masiello + Nic Fanciulli. Electro house damage in a wicked venue, and everybody's fave robot loving Brit was partying along front row with the crowd!

TA massive was present at both. Funny how it takes a little electro house to get the chinstrokers out and on their feet these days

hmmmm. im not sure whats so funny but im glad youre enjoying yourself.

i didnt say i thought steve hill (or bexta for that matter) was awesome. i said they were the best i got to see this year (mangler & begic ftw tho!) and he was infinitely better than jewelz. if i wanted to hear pointless music with 1 bar looped for 2hrs i could do that at home.

bexta wasnt too bad at all. a bunch of decent tunes, nothing flash. tight mixing. looked cute. was polite and genuine.

jewelz is ugly and plays *horrendous* music. whats to like?

International wise..

* Big Day Out - too many moments to mention, but Carl Cox & Chemical Brothers
* Christopher Lawrence (as per previous mentions )
* Deep Dish @ Metro 5hr set
* Danny Howells @ Room
* Transatlantic7 (and the tek-neck epidemic)

Funny mentions go to:
* Thrillseekers @ Cage (welcome to the 3rd dimension)
* Jan Johnston @ Room (Pump up the Jam podium stylez)

jewelz isnt even as good looking as my scrotum. theres no way in hell she's better looking than bexta, esp since she's prob old enough to be her mum.

secondly, if i had to bet all my worldly possession on who's had far far too much stuffed deep in their back door my money would be on you, not tathi. you look like that kinda gal

im not disagreeing with you about steve hill. im saying that he's better than jewelz. which part of this arent you getting?

definately should've mentioned the minichilli parties .. best monthly night out there imo.

ROFL@
