ABSOLUTELY SICK!!
First I'll say that Damian Lazarus was very good. He layed down some wicked tracks including André Kraml - Safari (James Holden Remix) that I'd been dying to hear. I didnt get there till 12:40, so I must have missed Mazi.

Then JZ came on and tore it up from the start with Solid Groove - This is Sick. Love that track. The rest of the set was filled with so many wicked basslines, effects, vocals, and all kinds of stuff. He was appearantly running ableton off a little mac laptop along with all the other mixers, cdj's and stuff. All those inputs created amazing output!
I enjoyed this set more than his last time at Soundbar. I guess he made up for what he called an average show last time with last nights set.

I managed to sneak in a few vids and pics with my low battery camera. I took the first video and then the damn low battery signal went on. I thought it was fresh because my other one was dead. Anyway they'll be up at www.hansgruber.com/zabiela

Anyone else go? And if anyone has any pics or vids that they need hosted from last night, I'd be more than happy to host them. Just let me know

i also went to see zabiela after the mess that was trois (meaning that the drinks at trois were so strong that after 3 of them i was walking funny). sorry i missed you tom, but i was not seeing straight when i got to sound bar, much less even when i left around 4 am.

got there around 11:30 or so to catch damian - who had a very solid set - liked the beats that he was throwing down, but then james came on and tore the shit up! he brought it up that one notch and the madness ensued. i haven't seen james in about 2+ years (he seems to always come when i'm busy/out of town/or just plain tired), so i was really looking forward to seeing him and he did not disappoint. the place was going nuts during his set. i can't id tunes, but he brought his brand of electro/telectro goodness.

ps - i think i almost had a seizure when i first got to sound bar with those white flashing lights

must've missed you last night. then again, maybe its cuz i was stuck in my own world and pretty much danced all night in one spot

incredible night! didn't real dig the party at the Tavern Club, so i'm glad soundbar was able make up for it. Got in around 115 and Damian Lazarus was tearing it up. JZ's set had me going from beginning to end. two more tracks to add to the list: A Studio - S.O.S. (loved it! :crazy and blue monday. i gotta agree this set was much better than a few months ago. possibly my best night at soundbar so far this year. tons of room to move, a great crowd, and sick music.

Ya I didnt roam around much at all either. I was there with my gf and we were mostly on the right side of the club. Those strobe lights made me feel like we were in a haunted house at times.

Also he played that track with the Star Wars samples/vocals in it. "Help me Obi-Wan" and when Darth Sidious says "Rise" at the end of Ep. 3. That track was goooood!

tom - we'll have to see each other next week at burridge and mazi - which will be another sick-ass night of music

How was Mazi?
