-- Review: Carlos Fauvrelle @ Hotel

Review: Carlos Fauvrelle @ Hotel

So after massive win at Airwave @ Vola lounge, I was in mood for some house music.

Welcome, Carlos Fauvrelle! Got in around 1145 with Veronica and Vince after massive headache trying to find a parking spot (which we ended up parking at the lot right beside Hotel. lol)

First step in and I can hear the bestial sound of house that just stirred something in my soul. Was nursing a massive headache all day so wanted to take easy, but D Unity played a decent tech house ish set.

First 90mins of Fauvrelle was freaking awesome. Didnt wanted to dance, but the beats were just hypnotic to get me to move my butt a little. Slamming tech = epic win. Slowed down and got a little too repetitive around 3 but still delivered a very good set. Very little tribal tech which is disappointing, probably due to Toronto being a little too much in love with techno/tech house right now. Gotta play to the crowd.

Jay was big bag of shambles <3

8/10

Was wanting more of a chilling night after that lovely dose of trance the night before. This was the first time I've seen Carlos Fauvrelle, and BOY did I enjoy it! The techy house with some tribal here and there is exactly what I was in the mood for! Banging tunes all night long!! D-Unity did a great job to set the mood before Carlos' set. BTW, when Carlos was playing his last track, the lights were being turned on...we were leaving at that point anyways, but I thought Manzone and Strong were supposed to be on after him?? Then again it had emptied out quite a bit by that time of the night, I suppose everyone was tired from all the New Years festivities!
Anyways, so nice to see some familiar faces and a couple new ones too! A perfect way to end NYE/NYD!

Carlos Fauvrelle killed it at Hotel. Very good track selection, mixing and programming. I was surprised seeing someone so young have so much skill.

Only complaint of the night was the crowd was too tame for an NYD party. Maybe I was expecting too much because of the madness I experienced at Boa/270 and Lawler NYDs of years past.

Fun times!

You call what Fauvrelle was playing "chill"? Come on!

Maybe at the beginning, but he was banging it out for 3/4 of his set.

I think she's saying she WANTED more of a "chill" night...


Posted by v-vaughn on Jan-03-2009 06:04:

hahaha, no he definitely wasn't chill! But I'd say the combination of a smaller and darker venue, as well as it not being rammed was more what I was referring to being perfect for how I was feeling. I definitely was looking forward to some tech-house and tribal after dancing to trance all night long on NYE! And like jon jon said, I wasn't really in a "huge party" kind of mood when I was leaving my house (after watching the Kitchen Nightmares marathon on Food network all day long lol) but that VERY quickly changed.
I'd definitely hit up this venue again, I really enjoyed it!

Yup -- I'm really glad I mustered up the energy to go to this!

First time at hotel, it's a nice venue. D-unity played some nice stuff. Carlos Fauvrelle played really well, nice transitions, flow and kept the energy going most of the set.

And yes Jay you looked ruined lol.

Unbelievable nite WOW

Carlos played a very deep set compared to when I saw him with Frank Maurel in portugal last year.

First time at hotel and absolutely loved it I was losing it all nite in front of the dj booth

Bring Fauvrelle Back ASAP (maybe in the drink for an all access?)


Posted by Yohan on Jan-03-2009 22:51:

My only complaint of the night was that the highs were pitched way too high. My ears are still ringing a bit
