Review :Jon O'Bir @ Club Rio

Very good night overall. Jon played some great tunes and is a very cool guy. I will admit for around 45 minutes he played some electro-trance stuff that I really didn't like, but he followed it up with some massive melodic tracks. Very good vibe, I hope everyone likes the club since the last time everyone was there since god knows how long . The Soundsystem is something of it's own, it's a true pleasure to have a system like that in Toronto.

Some tracks I remember hearing...
Jose Amnesia-Louder (O'Bir Remix)
Lemon & Einar K-Anticipation
Dmitri Federov-Falling of the stars (Paul Miller Remix)
Vast Vision-Summer Blush (Aly & Fila Remix)
Luke Warner & Mat Lock-Deep Psychosis (Daniel Kandi Remix)

Once again, good seeing everyone.

Electro???
Ben don't make me kick your whacked ass!!!!

That was FREAKING AMAZING! The set started with one teaser track, then went into high pace/high bass mode, and never looked back.
Soooo many good tunes mixed in a brilliant flow.
Spani up there named a number of great ones...the 2 tracks that just did it for me were deep psychosis, and Far away....they just came at wicked times and reinforced an already sick bassline and great energy.

This dude is hands down the nicest guy in the business and such a fantastic DJ. He was so happy to be in Toronto, and was exstatic to meet and chat with all of the people who have actually heard what he is able to do.

Rio itself has a greatly improved sound system, and I am glad that there were a decent number of people covering a pretty large dance floor in there. Only problem is that it is a cracky club with no booze, and most people could only really appreciate an amazing mix/track as far as their current rush would let them.
Still, a great night overall, and not a horrible atmosphere at all!

Any justice in the world gets this guy noticed by everyone, playing big name clubs all over the world.

Fantastic night.I would like to thank each and every one of you for coming out tonight.Jon's set was top notch and the man is probably one of the most down to earth guy Ive ever met.I cant wait to have him back here again.

One thing I have to mention here is the vibe that was there throughout the night non stop.Everyone was dancing and having a good time.

Once again thanks to all you people who came ,we will do our best to have bigger and better parties in the near future so stay tuned.


p.s. and dont forget we have some of the best local Dj's showing off their magic every single Saturday there,so if you liked what you heard tonight,be sure to check it out sometimes.



Cheers

Navid

I haven't been back to Rio (Viva), since like 2005 roughly I think, but last night felt like old times. A lot of the usual people that partied back in the day at Viva on big events, and some new people. Nada is one of the people that gave me a flash back to the past, with her going crazy. We used to have dance offs, and I wanted to again! My legs wern't having any part of it though lol. I realize now that my legs just are not what they used to be haha, and they were dead so fast, and I sat down for a long while lol. I wanted to dance, but the legs weren't letting me. Stupid legs! Frig! lol

Everyone was into it and having a blast though! I haven't really listened to any Trance in a super long time, but I got right back into it when I walked in the club hehe. Around 6am I finally had energy again and I started going crazy just like old times, dancing my ass off, and turning my dry shirt into a soaked shirt lol. Thanks for the awesome beats Chris. I wish I could have went nuts like that earlier in the night, but ah well, gettin' older I guess LOL.
