Armin Was Amazin...

For those of ya'll who weren't at Aria, in montreal, this past Friday, sorry but you really missed out..first off, the club was a decent venue...the main dance hall was nice and the five large screens,displaying tripped out video feeds and at times live feeds of the crowd, that were setup up around the dance floor was pretty cool...but the lights were seriously lacking and was pretty weak...anyhow, this was my first time seein armin live....what can i say...it was amazing...if you ever seen a dj spin a 4 hour set, there is normally atleast one or two moments where you would drift away from the music to have a thought but Armin's set was non-stop amazment...after Armin dropped "for an angel" remix, by who im not sure, about an hour in, the crowd really just went nuts...he drilled the crowd with more great fukin bass and continued to drive the crowd into hysteria literally every ten minutes with the music building back up...when the music was silent, every single person on the dance floor just stopped and stared at Armin to see what he would do next...it was truly an amazing scene when literally, every single person in the club stops and freezes only to let AVB drive them into more hysteria with incredible build ups...but when armin dropped "ligaya" onto the crowd, the party seemed to just start over again with even more intensity...what sucked was everyone knew armin would be done in only a few minutes, seein that his 4 hours were almost up....but naturally, the crowd chanted in unison for one more song and armin delivered with an extra 30 minutes of great unanticipated music...all in all, i've been to several great sets in my life and i just became a huge armin fan cuz of this past friday's performance..."simply amazing" is what i seemed to utter throughout his set...i kept thinking, he's got to play one fill track or just a played out song but it never happened...i kept on being pleasantly surprised by Armin till the last note of his last vinyl for the night...

I love Armin, he kicks off the night with such pleasure. His easy flowing attitude throughout his sets makes a crowd go wild...especially the females.

it was one of the best parties I ever attended! I even filmed the party... there will be some movie clips soon on aria's website.

jparknyc, the lights at Aria doesn't suck at all, I've seen them in full effect and let me tell you they are amazing. But, people kept complaining that they felt "bombarded" by lights (which tires the eyes) and the light engineer now tries to follow the music and keep the intensity at minimum. Also, people at Aria wants it to keep its "underground" feeling by minimizing the lights... I love the lights but after being there for a dozen times now I can tell you that I prefer it now than before. The lights were so fast and intense I kept closing my eyes, at 9am its not that fun having full light in your face!

Anyways you can do lots of stuff in the dark

Hope to see you soon there.

malek, ur right...i only stess the lights cuz clubs in the states are all into that shiet...i guess it is excessive and until i learned ur point of view, plus everyone else in montreal feeling the same, i realize how commercial it is also...it definitely does feel more "underground" and it should stay that way...i've only been there once, as opposed to a dozen times for you, and i guess i would feel the same as well...i love the mechanics and layout but i was comparing the club to commercial clubs...i guess i made a mistake bout that and shouldn't have...in anycase, the lights are really irrelevant when great dj's are spinnin a set...i could;ve watched armin with fukin disco ball and a dinky strobe and it would've still been amazing..

and u know the dark is definitely better...that i can't stress enough at times...hehehe...oh the dirty minds...

and trust me, i hope to be back as soon as i can....

Hahaha... did you know that a few blocks away from Aria there's this after hour called Stereo and has only a huge discoball for a light system? People live and die for that place man! Its house all the way tho and has its own hardcore clientele. Its reknown to have the best sound system in Nort America ( I'll have to hear it before believing this).

you're always welcome man!

Sasha, Picotto and Corsten are coming in October
