Good solid set, and must say armin is the man!! much rather have seen him at central park instead. Did anyone else find 3/4 of the crowd grimey and repulsive, I felt like i was in exit for a few moments. Anyway, good tunes he played, some were ruined by the trucker horns which came on at inappropriate times. He's defintely working his way to number 1 thats for sure.. Kudos to Armin


Some tunes:
Ton T.B. - Dream Machine
William Orbit - Adagio for Strings
Nikola Gala - Swing to Harmony
Mojado Ft. Mr. Sam - Naranja
Mark Norman - Phantom Manor
Armin Van Buuren vs. M.I.K.E Pres. Electric Movement - Intruder
Filterheadz - Yimanya
Armin van Buuren - Communication pt.3
..will remember more in the future

Hello guys and gals.

DJ Pippins here. Although I am a Trance addict, and my top 3 fav Trance DJ are PVD,Tiesto, Above & Beyond and Armin (not in particular order), I neved missed any of the shows Armin did in US.

To be honest, I agree what people say about people being a little tipsy, but I did not like very much what Armin did either. He kept signalling with his hands "Come on!" but he definitely has done better last time he was here in Roxy.

I found most of his tracks was dancable, but some of themn were really not there. The tack I dislike most for dancing is the track where the voices go "So, did you like it... then why didn't you buy it".. or something like that. He actually spun some of the AAB tracks. Surprsingly I could not take it any longer, and left around 12:30. The crows was dispersing too. Maybe because it was a Thursday night, and people had to work. The stange was fantastic, the lighting was OK.

Time for us to say to Armin "Come on". And what was that cheesy thing about taking the headphones and facing it to the audience. I mean, what was the purpose? It's not a microphone!. Overall, yes, Armin is trying to be #1, but I don't think he is there yet!

Comments, folks?

i thought that the crowd seemed a little grimey as well, but there was still a large number of gorgeous girls running around. hehe...im wonderin who has the pictures to post of AVB @ Crobar. im really waiting to send some to some of the other clubbers i know. the event was overall a success i think, even though the park would have been better.

Yea, he defintely had a great set that night, and booo to everyone who tried to play armin saying you can always catch him some other time.. ....pics are mainly posted in the new york forum. This section apparently isnt for party reports and pics

Yeah Armin threw down an extremely vicious set, 6 hours, thats longer then ive ever heard anybody spin out,...yes the train horns were HELLA annoying, ppl were like wtf??? but overall i had a good time and enjoyed meeting all the new cool people i did

haha well actually...

ever plugged your headphones into the microphone socket and then talked into either the left or right (can't remember which) phone?

Hi Ghost!

Regarding the headphone thing that Armin did, You can't!. The big DJ headphones that Armin uses the SONY MDR to be precise, has a 1/4 inch size pin that does not even go into the micro phone jack. To know, what equipments Armin uses, try this site :
http://www.arminvanbuuren.com/studio/

I'm saying this, because I mix myself. So I know the funky stuff he did was nonsense!.

Ppl, don't get me wrong. I absolutely love Armin. I think he can even be better than Tiesto. But I was a bit dissapointed by his Crobar gig. That's all!. And yes, wtf @&*%$%$ about the train horns? Who does that? I know it was not Armin since he looked surprised himself!

ok cool, sorry didn't know about the plug issue. It's just I have pissed my friends off many a time with some impromptu MCing through my HDJ1000's while mixing.

Hi Ghostface!

Hmm!! thats strange!.. How was the effect?

And what do you use for mixing?...

I am a PVD follower, so I use a laptop, and use Ableton Live.
