Summer Music Conference '08

Hey All... How did this event get overlooked?

SMC '08 Toronto
July 23rd - 27th
http://www.summermusicconference.com/

It's not all trance but it is music & big parties. Maybe some people in here have some connections to get more electronic music into this conference. Would be great for T.O. to have it's own WMC.

It got missed due to poor promotion and a lack of cohesion with the festival?

While I'm sure behind the scenes allot of work has gone into it, but what is 'presented' feels like it was slapped together with the majority of SMC 'events' being things that happen in the city regularly anyways (Dekoze @ Straight on Thursday, Rehab @ Footwork on Friday), with not (m)any hype-worthy DJs to really build up buzz around the festival.

Just the name Summer Music Conference turns me off. It's too similar to the Winter Music Conference in name and it has no affiliation with the aforementioned WMC. Just looks like something trying to cash in on the WMC name.

A true summer conference would have to be in Europe because all the heavy hitters are residents in Ibiza. I think Pete Tong actually put it together in Ibiza this year called the International Music Summit and how much did you hear about that?

from what i heard, they originally had a big investor from europe involved but that investor pulled out so i guess the event already flopped before it even occurred.

As kotsy pointed out it actually didn't! Well, at least not completely. Poor promotion for sure.

I wrote out this big long reply critizing the whole thing.. then i realized it would be better to just not say anything at all...


BUT... i gotta say something.. so I'll keep it short and sweet.

poorly executed
poorly promoted
unoriginal
not well thoughtout

Is their really a need for another music conference? There's already Miami, Amsterdam, Montreal, Las Vegas, Ibiza.. and lets not forget San Fran which already had the SMC name first FFS! I'm sure there's more that I'm forgetting about to...

I don't understand the point or purpose of "SMC"
