What do you prefer?

Have been thinking about this for a while, and i saw it posted on another website.

Do you prefer going to a festival with 20-50 Dj's with a variety of sounds or would you rather go to a club that has 2-5 Djs at most that play a select genre which is programmed properly.

Interesting article with interview above.

I much prefer the latter.

latter
unless 1 has consistency to it.

generally dont like the whole larger crowds thing, just means more idiots you have to walk through to get to where you want to go.
Also means set time clashes which is a pain in the ass, lesser sound quality on the side stages eg. summadayze

Clubs.


Doesn't always have to be an intimate crowd, maybe 1000 people at the most is ok, but clubs, for sure.

large events, i've only been to a club once @ bass(bass-sation) when i was there and thats back in 2003/2004, since then i've aways been to the larger raves

one of the best gigs ive ever been to was the first time (i think it was the first time anyway) Kyau & Albert toured here...they played upstairs at the royal melbourne hotel before it had been renovated

the energy in that little room with such a great crowd was incredible, after seeing something as intimate as that it's hard to go past anything similar

not to mention kva really did deliver that night hahaha

Clubs - Ronski Speed @ Alitutude was off the charts

You tend to get better sets from the dj at club gigs as well

I prefer outdoor events but with a small number of internationals.

Future has gone overboard in recent years.

It used to be that they just had 5-6 big jocks on main stage, not 30 spread over six. It was much better that way I think.

events suck: intimate events ftw.
the big crowds create good atmosphere, but not worth the downs

ONCE ONLY?

wow

I prefer intimate club gigs, as usually an international plays more than 1 hour as opposed to festival type gigs. Also most important thing is that djs usually let more loose at club gigs than festival gigs where they tend to play to please the commercial crowd.

Ive been to club gigs before where the atmosphere was absolutely more crazier & fun than a type of festival I had been too.
Festivals can be heaps of fun though....Two Tribes, Digital & Sunshine People have been some of my faves!

BUSH DOOOOOOFS!

Better than fucking everything. + you get to go camping with your mates for 3 days and don't have to lineup anywhere.


Posted by Deeman on Jun-17-2008 03:03:

Hmmm but that wasn't one of the choices .. but now that you mentioned it, doofs hands down every single time!

does this mean we'll see an interview elements: earth.. in the bush ?
and ofcourse "leave your vinyls at home".

(and bring back some of that line up from the last one.. tech&uplifting trance + psy! best combo ever! it ROCKED!)

small intimate club night are the best! i love being able to have my own little space to rave in, and the added bonus of knowing everyone there is great!


Posted by dan_essential on Jun-17-2008 04:17:

Festivals/Raves are my pick if i had to choose. I lovedddd UltraWorld last year, it was F***ing awesome, Tiesto, Armin were amazing as well. I did go to Digweed in that underground nightclub this year and watched him for a few hours, but it was like a sauna and chocas! But Pharmacy parties with the rooms are awesummm as well


Posted by Anomyst on Jun-17-2008 04:20:

Interview will stay in clubs but you can certainly count on the interview elements outdoor events to be something on the calender in the very near future. lots of learning to be done first.

sunrise yeah i totally agree man, building from tech, prog, trance and then psy is serious fun!

that digweed gig @ qbar was fucking incredible. yes it was crowded but fuck me did he deliver for 4 solid hours.

i prefer club events to festivals, having been to a large share of both over the last 5 years...club nights are my preference. they give dj's a larger flexibility to play in their style not to the masses. note digweed's set this year at fmf was a bit of a mixed bag in some aspects as he played to the crowd.

problem with club nights is that there simply isnt this 'well programmed' happening much in melbourne. warm up dj's play too hard or with too much energy before the main acts. warm up is a hard act, i know but there's been some disgraceful attempts.

eg. andy murphy before sharam @ prince...hard french electro before main room prog? what?
rollin connection before nic fanciulli @ 24h darkbeat. too banging and techy before a guy who is known to work from deep house to techier sounds. his set had so much groove in the first 20 mins or so but he was getting no love from the crowd as rollin connection had been banging out just prior to him coming on. he changed his set to better please the crowd much to the dismay of people who like to see dj's progress over a longer period of time.

i've ranted. i vote the latter in short.

That circumstance has never arrived!! (I think it's because I already go with rather high level of blackness compared to other khuntz!) Crust is for those other dudes who peel n shit!

Hey, if the possibility of crusty genitals ever did occur .. just go home! .. Oh and see a doctor if pain persists!

True story.
