oooh! me first!!!

7:09am & it looks like I gotta cancel my dentist appt at 10am, if I even want to try to get thru the rest of my day of work. Ears are ringing, and I wasnt even done getting over the jetlag from Israel when I screwed up my sleep schedule so horribly again this birthday weekend. So I'll keep it short.

Caught the tail end of Walters set when I got it. Dennis Hahn threw a killer set! Mad props! Johan.......... Oh. My. God!!!!! It's been almost a yr since I saw him last, and boy was it worth the wait! One of the best sets from him that I've experienced live.

He played "SALTWATER"- Chicane (Johan Gielen mix)

That alone made the hell I'm gonna feel for the next few days worth it all.
A fine mix of new tunes & classics that had the packed main room jumping all night.

Glad to see that Republik filled the main room for this event on a Sun. night.

Everyone who didn't attend missed the f*ck out.

More later. Only 3 hrs of sleep b4 the day from hell begins.

Sounds like a good nite ....How long was his set?

i had nothing left to give this wknd after a very emotional sat night / sunday morning. I danced my heart out this wknd to Mr. Lawler and Sasha and had no $$ and no energy left to damn all sunday night.

Glad to hear Republik held a successful night on a sunday. (DONT make it a trend!!--the sunday night parties not the successful nights)

First time at Republik and that place is really impressive. Not a big fan of light shows, lasers and flat screens....but this place has an impressive setup. Staff was really nice, AND YOU COULD SMOKE YOUR BRAINS OUT ON THE FLOOR!!!! Anyways the music got progressivly harder and harder, louder and more banging.

Johan put up a good show, other than the weak opening track, he never relented, he just kept on pounding some really beautiful trance. That was some of the clearest, hardest basslines I have heard in a while.

Did anyone else notice the amount of times that it said "IN SESSION WITH JOHAN GIELEN??" does that mean we may be able to get our hands on that set? - that would be nice.

+1 , I hate missing such nights due to work nextday...

WHOLEY SHIT!!!!

that my friends is exactly what i needed. i'm sorry to be the barer of bad new, but if you like trance music and weren't there last nite, you must spend the next month kicking yourself for it!

just like the above post, it was a completely eargasmic experience! we got there around 11:15 and the place was DEAD, there must of been like 50 ppl in the whole club, at 12am it was still pretty dead and i was like wtf? where the crowd, don't be a repeat of last year. slowly but surely the club started filling out to dennis hahn's set. (which was very good btw.) and by the time johan came on at 2am the club was PACKED! and it was an awesome crowd totally in to the music.

i can't believe how many amazing songs were dropped last nite. some i can remember are

josh gabriel - i feel alive (denis's closer (thanks so much, i love this song!!!)
reflekt - i need to feel loved
airscape - sosei
ferry - sublime
angelli & nelson - shivers (i absolutely love this song, johan was singing along and everying, one of new favorites, and made my nite!!!)

and seriously so many more, almost anything i could of asked for was played last nite. and you could tell johan loved those wall lights lol. he was getting jay to que them up and the whole bit and the perfect time, (qudos on the lights )

my gf had to work this morning, so we left around 4:30, but at least what i was there for completely raped me. (when did he finish btw?)

i actually liked the opening track and wanted to see if anyone knew waht it was? i definately thought it wouldn't be everyones cup of tea, but i was really digging it. kinda sounded like housey trance in a way. whatever johan did i enjoyed though...from the trance to the moments of techno here and there (i'm normally not into dancing to techno to much at the club, but johan did it very nice (he didn't play much, only a few here and there, but when he did, they had insane energy to them)

btw. one thing i forgot. Republik, your sound system is fuckin awesome!!!! i was so impressed, the clarity i could here was amazing, definately don't get that type clarity at the guvernment or docks (i don't know if that has to do with accoustics and being a smaller club, but i loved it)
