A Family Affair at the Pool - Spundae Pool Party @ Catalina 3/24/06 review + pics
This is where I spent my entire Friday before PVD, at a hotel pool party. Michelle (Sweetcandy Girl) had a hand in this and it was a really nice, chillax kind of thing. There was house, breaks and trance at night. I got there with Elevation @ 1 P.M. but Michelle ended up arriving late.
Normally I can't stand house, but in a chill environment like a lounge or hotel, I can just focus on other things easier. The breaks that were played were really good. However, me and Elevation heard a LOT of trainwrecks yesterday. REALLY NASTY ones. Among the DJs on the lineup, D:Fuse was there in the late afternoon. He started getting the pool crowd going.
The first DJ who I came to see play was Kristina Sky. She played a slightly slower, more mellow proggy trance set but I still liked it. Tracks included:
Like A waterfall
Naline & Kane - Open Your Eyes (???? remix)
Mixing was flawless. Her crowd interaction was superb. And I got to meet and chat with her later. Really, really cool chick. I hope to see you again someday, babe!
After Kristina, came a dude I didn't recognize, but judging by the tunes I guessed Sander van Doorn. I wanted to be sure so I went up and asked someone and he confirmed it. A huge grin came to my face as SvD tore it up. He trainwrecked SLIGHTLY once or twice but he kept cool. Tracks included.
The Police - Message in a Bottle (SvD remix)
SvD - Pumpkin (SvD remix)
The set consisted of mainly his songs a la Marco V from Sensation White 2005, but I still REALLY enjoyed it. I also got to meet with Sander. Really nice guy! Very young.
After Sander came John '00' Fleming. His set was actually good but more like relaxed trance. Mixing was flawless.
DJ Fei Fei was supposed to play after John but the hotel got a noise violation. On top of that, I had to run to Golden Beach to scoop up Michelle, Mikey and Philippe. The atmosphere was AWESOME at this place. Great vibe. I actually played pool ball with random people. One person's drink got knocked over by the ball. Oooops! At least it wasn't me. I did hit a girl tho.
Really nice seeing Sarah (GypsyGirl), her friend Julie, and my sexy milf bish Carrie. It was an extreme pleasure meeting and chatting with Fei Fei. Que hermosura!!! <3
I'd never been to a pool party so this one, my first one, was a great experience. Many thanks to Michelle and the other groups for putting this one together. Pics coming in next post.
