Hello! Hello

Hey everyone!!!

Just stopping by to say hello and let you all know I've safely returned from my trip to Australia

Geez, a year sure flies by fast huh? My experience there was nothing less than extraordinary!!! I've learnt alot about myself and really opened my eyes to another culture. Australia doesn't differ much from Canada, but I'll tell ya, they sure know how to party down there!!!

My trip went something like this. First to Sydney for 6 months, down to Batemans Bay for 1 week, up to Brisbane for 2.5 months, then backpacking for 3-4 weeks going to Surfer's Paradise, Harvey Bay, Fraser Island, Airlie Beach, Whitsundays, Townsville, Magnetic Island, Cairns, and Karundah. Then I flew south the Melbourne for my final 3 months.

I can't tell you how many AMAZING beaches I sat on, all the crazy wildlife I encountered, and the hottest weather I ever experienced. I can't even begin to scratch to surface of how the last year of my life has really impacted me.

All I can say is that if you have ever wondered what it would be like to travel to another country and see something new... it really is a life changing experience!

I hope you all had a great 2006, and wish you all the best for 2007!!!
I've made my choice to move to Toronto where there's much more opportunity to advance in a musical career. Australia really has shown me that if you want something bad enough, you have to make it happen, and unfortunately, I don't feel Vancouver (as much as I will always long to live there again) has the accepting mentality of a dream I call trance.



I've attached a few videos from youtube that I took of some of the most amazing parties I ever seen in AUS.
After watching these, I'm sure you're all want to go have a taste of what I did

Thumbs up Welcome Back!

Yep, it sounds like you had a fab trip. Good luck with the move to Toronto-keep me updated! And I'll be over there in your neck of the woods at the end of summer-you'll have to let me know if your gig'n anywhere or where the hot spots for trance are. GOOD LUCK!

Hello!

Glad your home safe Kris

All Canadians welcome here with open arms

By the way Kris, so you don't forget Melbourne too quick here's a little something for ya':

Papa Smurf @ Kiss My Grass, Melbourne - 26.01.2007

Disregard the stupid announcers and advertisments during some parts of the mix. Hope it's not to 'hard' for ya' hahaha

Here's a video too:

You bet your asses if anybody comes by to visit T.O. I'll be right out there with ya to show you the hotspots (that is of course when I find them myself ).

Not too sure about that Papa Smurf, Anita. I liked his style when I saw him, but his technical side needed alot of work. He plays great tunes though, alot of tracks I play myself. Plus, I don't really get along with the arrogant type, and Papa Smurf reeked of it when I met him on all occasions.

Yes Elena, I had some amazing things happen to me down there (for DJing). You should've seen how many copies of 3D World magazine I had stacked up in my house I played some amazing gigs that really have highlighted my trip, and can only hope that others here will see here, what they saw in me down there

It's really nice to be back a part of the hockey world too!! One of my best memories down under was watching the Stanley Cup Finals last year at 10am in the basement of a sportsbar, packed full of Canadians cheering on the Oilers.

AND OMG........
IT'S SOOOOOOOOO GOOD TO DRINK CANADIAN BEER AGAIN!!!!!!

You are welcome in my humble home anytime the winds bring you near.

Mark, def hit me up when you're coming my way eh!! Love to hang out with you again.
Krys, I'm seriously thinkin about coming back to Van. Mostly because I hate the snow here and rather be riding the moutains Maybe I'll just show up one day in your room, sitting on a chair, so when you wake up, I'll be the first thing you see, and scare the shit out of you!
Fuck, I'll never forget when you did that to me. It still haunts me bro. LOL.

EDIT. GO WINGS GO!!!!

summer trails but aim to get into the snow as well, eventually.

for all the nutty australians .. be cool, be fun .. let's do her.

Posted by Mortyman on Feb-05-2007 16:12:

You "think" we can start up a few small shows in Whis??
Brother, I "know" we can
I hit the hills here in Ontario last weekend. OMG, they suck sooo bad, but atleast I got out to ride. Shit, I only been twice in 2 years! That's hurtin!


Posted by krysx25 on Feb-06-2007 03:56:

Yes dear brother-from-a-different-mother, I say you catch the
next rig come west-bound and we throw maddass parties in
whistler and hit the slopes.

Cocked n'ready .. let's do her.


hey .. think I can get you to spin up some electro?? hehe..


Posted by Mortyman on Feb-06-2007 18:22:

Oh man. I miss the days in Whistler! And seeing all this fucking snow in Toronto licks goat balls!! I heard Vancouver and Victoria got mad amounts of snow and rain this year! WTF!!

And I think you'll find it amazing how much electro is found in trance these days too Krys. So you might actually get your wish

Man it's been forever since I posted here. Haven't visited the site in awhile. Thought i'd say hello and give a welcome back Kris. I had a few friends spend 7 months in Surfers Paradise last year, said it was a blast. Glad your experiance was pleasurable and progressive in your life. Nice to see you back and I hope you enjoy Toronto .
Matt

Global warming man .. it's ughh .. gonna kill us all.
Especially us here on the coast, I'm just waiting for that
one special tsunami and we're all floaters. Bridges
everywhere, so nowhere to run ... Certain death awaits ..
BUT THE MOUNTAIN VIEWS !!! haha

In Ontario, you'll choke on humid first before the great
lakes overflow and kill you .. haha ...
