I got the cleaning lady addicted to techno!!!! (and I'm not talking about darude :D)

Today, I woke up and played really loud "Boriqua tribez - Corona"... it's very nice techno stuff... anyway, when I looked in the corridor, the cleaning lady was dancing and playing with the broom as if it were a glowstick She was so deeply involved in the music that I decided not to disturb her (and approaching someone spinning a broom is not really wise ). So, when the music ended, she came to me and asked if I could give her a mixed CD because she wanted to listen to this kind of music at home and it was far better than the music played in the radio. Probably, I'm gonna give her a liveset either from Ken Ishii or DJ Cave (my favourites). Anyway... I felt like telling it here because, let's face it: you don't see such thing happening everyday Has anyone here ever managed to do something similar?

Mission acomplished

LOL that's cool. Brazilians have good rhythm, that makes sense that she likes techno.

I have a question. Who is Boriqua Tribez? Boriqua=Boricua=Puerto Rican in Taino (native indians). I was wondering if there are PR techno producers i don't know about.

That's cool and everything but I got my grandma hooked on trance... I was listening to oakenfold: new york on day and she liked it. Long story short, I dubbed it onto a tape and hooked her up. So a couple weeks later she wanted me to dub a different one since she'd played the other one out already. I then dubbed dave seaman: buenos aires which she likes as well. This is all pretty freaky to me since she's like your typical blue-haired granny except she's bumpin some phat trance at her crib.

Hmmm, but they're actually quite common in Brazil. We, as well as pretty much any other family member or friend always had them back home. Having one does not insinuate down south what it insinuates up here.

lol... my grandma tolerates ambient, but that's all... here are some of my achievments:

1) Got my whole school van (about 12 people + driver) addicted to trance back in my school days (we would go to school listening to stuff like Cafe del Mar and For An Angel).

2) This cleaning lady is now addicted to techno (and my brother got her addicted to happy hardcore as well).

3) My father likes Brazilian drum'n'bass, but I can't say he's addicted yet.

4) I got a couple of Europeans addicted to trance as well.

5) ... I remember I recorded some mixed tapes, but I don't remember whom I gave them to

That you're lazy (or for the touchy ones, "leading a fast-paced busy lifestyle" ) and/or have too much money on your hands.

Hahah nice, Last year i had a friend who was one of the most
hardcore rap followers out there. His get up included a full outfit, and loud bothersome crap-hop beats playing all the time. One day i downloaded some trance on his computer and left it there. When i came back a week later, he had downloaded gigs on gigs of trance and was raving in his room! It totally changed his life.

Apart from my school van and some foreign girls, I've never been succesful showing trance... on the other hand, I've been more lucky with other genres like drum'n'bass, techno (including acid stuff ), house,....

He's Alberto Santos Dumont, one of the greatest Brazilians ever born. He invented about 100 different things (if you're using a wristwatch, be thankful to him ), and in Brazil and France he's considered the inventor of the airplane (although we know how important the Wright Brothers were as well). In case you're curious, here's the story:

Santos Dumont was born in July the 20th of 1873. It all started in France when he was hired by "Lechambre & Machuson" to fly in a balloon (it was a test drive of a model he was working on actually). He got the money he had earned and bought a smaller balloon for himself, and named it Brasil (i believe you all know what it means ). Later on, after winning prizes with his zeppelins (is this how you call a "balloon with an engine" in English? ) he built the 14-bis. Different from anything he had worked on before, this one wasn't a balloon. It was pretty much an airplane, with a 24HP engine. It flew 90 cm high for 100 meters (speed: 37,5 km/h), in Bagatelle camp (Paris). Unlike the Wright Brothers (who had just 5 witnesses), thousands of people saw him and the International Avation Federation considered it the first flight with something-heavier-than-the-air ever.

If you want pictures, here they are:

(his flight with 14-bis)

(a proper portrait)

I believe he designed the hat too

ROFLMAO!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

My old manager (she's in her 40's) caught me listening to Ferry Corsten's set on my iPod and asked me to burn her MP3 compilation. She's hooked... she was even asking me how she can attend one of these parties... that's too funny tho... The story with cleaning lady is hillarious, coz' I think of our cleaning lady, eastern-european (polish) woman in her 50's and can't imagine her "poppin'" with her broom to some Dave Pearce... ehehehe roflmao!
