514 Productions...

KK I want a little bit of info on our good friends over at 514...

1) Was 514 responsible for SONA? If no, who was running/backing it?

2) The events like FREAKY, CONNECTED, OASIS, CREAM, FORZA... where did these disappear to? I know there was a 2004 CREAM... but what about the others? Did these parties work? Did they not get enough people? What happened?

3) When did 514 appear in the city? Have they already shined and burnt out (ie: scraped a few crappy parties, kept a few) or are they just getting ready to restart OASIS/FORZA/FREAKY?

4) People who've been to FREAKY/FORZA/OASIS what are they like? Packed? Empty? Good? Bad? What were the themes of these parties?

/me looks in Kendo's direction...

:P

Thanks guys.

(edit: Some of these parties have some pretty stellar line-ups. Max Graham, Tiga, Digweed, Deep Dish, Oakenfold a la 2000, etc.)

Google is your friend...There are tons of informative articles online to answer your question...514 is now done...all they do is liquidate the trademark names to the massives now.

The shitstorm that happened between the boyz from 514 and Biggy should keep you entertained...

Google...you will be busy for hours.

The massives were fun and well attended, although you cant really compare them to today, since Dj's werent as overpaid and the scene was very different back then.

Connected was an amazing concept that i would love to see recreated.

Also Google Ray Jr as he organized alot of events to in this town at that time.

I can't seem to find anything sufficient on Ray Jr or anything close to informative on 514...

Anyone wanna do a quick write-up for Marrrkkessss?

(edit: I know the SWIRL 2005 story but I want to go a little further back...)

keep looking man...impossible to do a quick write up on this subject as you could write a book and still leave out info.(hmmmm *lightbulb flashes*)

I could be wrong, but i think 514's first event was Swirl in 96.
If you are really that interested google all the events and do your research.Of course it will take hours, but it really cant be broken down in a few sentences.

also if you go to rave.ca and search the site i believe they might have a few old flyers and reviews.

Some cool flyers/nights I found:

Connected

http://www.514productions.com/connected/connected2001/

Why did the CONNECTED event die?

I am not sure why it died.

But 514 has been dying a slow death. Every year it seems to drop something.

So it is on it's way down...

Was it a partner in Celebration or did it just license the rights to that party over to Godskitchen?

nice...its sad that you are posting some old aria flyers like that because it makes you wish for the return of the glory days.The sander/porter night was sick.No one knew who Porter was back then, and i remember him laying down a totally sick set.Nothing like how he spins today.

Let the past die, because reminiscing about it is just too damn depressing.

bro, it aint an easy buisness

swirl is gonna be a blast, and all the other events coming will rock the place

its back on it's feet and i will personnaly make sure everything happens

i dont pretend to know the business aspects of everything, and you know you have my support el gros, but les gars du 514 ont piller sur beaucoup d'orteilles
Swirl was my first party,I wish you success with it but if its not a massive its not the same.
You already got me to break my rule about not going to Circus, so you know i trust you.Mais les autres......

+1

i guess im the only one thats turned on by it.

I dont know much of the behind the scenes stuff, but I was a "hardcore" 514'er back in the day. Swirl 2000 was my first party, first trip....pretty much first everything, and since that moment on, I was addicted! I attended pretty much EVERY major 514 party from '00-04....Swirl, Connected, Cream, Freaky, Celebration...I had a kickass time at all of them! All of them were PACKED, long lineups before each one and each one was a good time.

I think they started going downhill around then...because by 03, Freaky, Forza,Connected..Swirl...they were all gone. Only Cream and Celebratation remained as the two biggest parties. Also, at the same time, ARIA was becoming #1, Sona was closed...moved, and then closed again....so it was the end of 514

Nowadays, I dont really party anymore....but those first years with 514 were something I'll never forget!

I miss Cream. Only shindig I went to that 514 productions did. So happy I went in 2004.
