I said let me give them a break, since it was their 1st time in NY, but I still supported it because I think NYC deserves a big EDM concert on par with Miami and Europe, we have the venues (Pacha, spirit, crobar, cielo, sully room, avalon, etc.) and central park or Randalls Island, I thought it would eventually evolve into a mini-WMC, ultra always does a bad job with sound, in miami as well |
the main reason for ultra not being as successful in other areas outside of Miami's WMC, is that each city has its own rules and regulations when it comes to outdoor events. It's less enforced down in miami because the revenue their economy generates from this week (as well as other weekly events - jazz fest, culinary week, etc). Miami is able to tax businesses on almost every front during weeks of these events. Unlike New York who already has a thriving economy, we are inhibited by laws which would prevent these outdoor festivals from popping up.
This includes the sound issue. Manhattan is a highly populated island, I don't think it would fair well with loud music where as in miami there is space and ocean front to steal some of that buffer zone. Sound overall can be engineered to great lengths, that's not the issue, it's the zoning, laws, and rules of a city that restricts the popularity of these events. And besides, many go nude on south beach....won't happen here in nyc.
