Review: Guv 11yr anniversary party

Simply insane chaos

Almost every DJ I saw was top notch.

Juicy details to come after I get my ass home.

When I left around 6am, Carl Cox and Ferry Corsten were going strong.

My body hurts already

^^^ didn't see you there Mr.

Madness...absolute madness! From the Roaches to Loco To Carl... they were killing it...I honestly just didn't really leave the main room at all with all that juicy Techno that was being played. My feet are destroyed.

Great to see so many TA's out...but some of you newer TA's are friggin weird

T'was good

Da proper review: Night of Utter Chaos and Good Tunage!

Got in at 11 with my friend Darryl. No hassle through reduced list line. Awesome

Did a quick tour of the complex and settled on Orange Room where Deadmau5 was just getting started. ZOEL, THE RULER OF UNIVERSE REIGNS!!!
He quickly warms up the crowd with the dirty and nasty beats to get the groove going. Love his use of breakdowns to build up the energy and slams down the filthy bassline. You heard the typical Deadmau5 mix of electro, tech and prog house and the crowd loved him. Good to see Joel enjoying himself like he's a kid inside a candy store.
Will def. see him again.

1am came did a bit more exploring because I didn't dig Cedric Gervais for the little bit I stayed. Tunes seemed standard Gallery type of house and the transitions were a bit sloppy.
Tried to get into whatever Loco Dice was playing but I just can't do tech house in a big club setting. Gotta be more dark and intimate venue. Oh well.
Settled at the Gallery where Uberzone was playing some kick ass breaks so I just chilled there for a bit until Carl Cox went up.

As expected, it was sardine can inside the main room but I knew that I'd regret not staying for Cox after Remo's fantastic review of Carl Cox from previous night so my buddy and I grabbed a slightly less crowded but suckier corner and proceeded to get destroyed.
Took a little bit for Carl to bring up the energy but once he started going, he was on fire. The tune selection to me were well balanced out between housier and techno tunes but seemed to mesh well. That little bit around 2:55 where the fog cannon went into overload mode and literally washed the mainroom in a big haze where you could see nothing was just plain awesome. Everyone was having a kick ass time and Carl Cox kept that energy going for another hour or so.

4am came and Carl slowed down a bit so did more bit of exploring. Checked out Tommy Sunshine in the Drink and he laid down your not typical electro house set. Very... eclectic. It got my head bobbing but wasn't really into it so I went back down to check out Carl again for few more mins but decided that I better check out Ferry.

When I got inside Kool Haus, it was packed, but not as stupid packed as the main room was. Ferry was playing really HARD, just the way I love it. He got my dancing mojo going overtime and I don't think I danced my ass off the way I did for a such long time.
I know I've been down on trance for a long time, but Ferry rekindled my innate love for trance and I was so happy to listen to good trance. I so wish trance to be number 1 in my life but oh well...

I left around 6am as my buddy was all pooped out. I knew I had the energy to see Ferry till the end, but oh well. Ferry still is my number 1 fav DJ

Overall: 9.5/10
Tune of the Night: Deadmau5 - Jaded

Random utterings
-thanks John and Jay for the hook ups
-the sound in all the rooms were near perfect. bass was just fine in the main room and the sound level wasn't ear hurting loud. forgot to bring my earplugs, and I don't have a ringing in my ear right now. (the drink was a tad bit too loud though)
-I lol'd at random chick who was walking around in bikini and straw hat like she just came back from Mexico
-always pleasure meeting new TAs
-decorations weren't excessive but done tastefully in KH
-saw that pervy Samoan dude with shirt off. UGH
-there needs to be more bass in the smoking pit area beside the Guv
-was kinda surprised that there was no KH entrance open and thought that there might be congestion to get in, but I got in pretty early so no issues for me there
-the club was packed, but not stupid packed. I guess Circa took a lot of people away
-where the hell was Lisa and Cale? You two disappoint me!

Ferry is known to deliver but really what he did last night was just 50 cherries on the top!!!! the entire night he did not have one boring period during his set, I tried to stay in the Guv on more than one instance, when Cox was MURDERING the place but I chose Ferry over Cox and I made the right choice for myself....everything that i wanted was in KH last night mostly SPACE to dance....spitty would agree we haven't had a trance dance night like that in a very long time .....and the music....just fuckin amazing...and that goes for every room I really wish that last night I had a clone that I could have sent off to Carl Cox!!!!!!

What sucks the most about last night is LISALOO missing this party I hope you are feeling better!!!HOLY FUCK I still am in shock that you were not there with us girl that's how strong your spirits are when it comes to Ferry ppl were looking for you to see who this crazy ferry's bitch is lol.....he signed you a get well ticket that spitty had with her some classics that i remember now Veracocha-carte blanche, The Thrillseekers - Synaesthesia 2004 (Ferry Corsten remix),Ferry Corsten & thrillseekers- Sublime (thrillseekers remix),William Orbit - Barber�s Adagio For Strings (Ferry Corsten Remix), Way out west- Mindcircus(G&D remix) an early classic in the night really knew I could not miss this set and very happy about my decision

BT-force of gravity track of the night for me!!!!
HOLY FUCK I literally was yelling that out loud bc I thought he dropped a track that sounded like it and immediately after he fucking drops that that's what we love about Ferry!!!


p.s DEADMAU5 is FUCKIN FILTHY GOOD!!!!!! wow

honestly I agree that MUSIC in each room was phenomenal last night!!! WOW well done Guv

more later......

Posted by The Highroller on Oct-08-2007 13:33:

I wouldn't be surprised if Cox was still playing. Last time he was at Guv, it went till about 9:30am.

Posted by Yohan on Oct-08-2007 13:46:

I also gotta say Mark O delivered a kick ass house set before Ferry.
Wow. Haven't heard Mark O go that hard in a long time

Trying to figure out if that is a good thing...


Posted by iLLnaDa on Oct-08-2007 14:25:

I just remembered.....



SYSTEM F- OUT OF THE BLUE


MAJOR CLASSIC right here!!!!!

have been dying to hear this live for a while now and finally did last night!!!


Posted by Cribby on Oct-08-2007 14:26:

Loco Dice was crazy loco.
Carl Cox was decent but surprised to hear a good chunk of techno from him.
Carl Cox Vs. Loco Dice was legendary! It was a highly influenced loco set, with some tech bombs being dropped by the cox as well. The last 30 minutes was extremely bland and boring though. Carl pretty much took over and played what sounded like the same song 5 consecutive times. lol.

Full review someday.
