Madeon at Vain review(show as 7/31)
Heard about the show at 8:30 last night while I was halfway napping during some primetime Olympics action (first night I was at home chilling in almost a week).
So my boy calls me up and wants to go -- fine, I had heard good things about this kid Madeon, and we decided to go. 15 bucks to get in, no big deal.
Never. Again. Will I go to one of these pop-house-electro-house-prog-house bullshit "EDM" monstrosities that are marketed at UCF kids.
This shit is NOT the house music scene. It's just not.
I've had good times at Vain on Friday nights (when there's more competition, I guess), but these special event shows they pull off every so often are just ass. Absolutely terrible crowd that doesn't know how to party, doesn't know what house music actually is, and everyone was on bath salts. Just freakin' lame. And Madeon was absolutely garbage. Those of you on this forum that like him -- uh, why, or how? He sucks ass. Yeah, he's good at "mashing up." Too bad the music he plays is just a bunch of electro farts and white noise and full of "drops" every 20 seconds. Way too many fucking breaks. I like a constant beat, you know, the way house music is supposed to be. I like to dance, not fist pump like a guido straight outta Jersey Shore. Abomination.
I'm sticking to Senso, Sky 60, etc. Much better educated crowd and real house/techno scene.
