The SA scene has died a terrible death, was so good back in 99

I'm luccky I moved to the UK when I did, didnt have to watch it fianl hours.

Cant speak for all of SA tho, but Cape Town has gone to utter shyte.

It's all about Hard House, or real cheesy trance.

Signum where down a while back, and pull a corwd of, gasp, 300ish ppl.

Dj sammy, however, pulled 3000ish

Erg, you said it.

Money has corrupted all the DJ's into bringing out very cheesy CD's, thus making everything just more commercial. Many of my friends don't like electronic music because the only stuff they hear is Hard House and Techno. Then when I play them some Darren Tate or Airwave they ask me why there isn't more of that kind of music playing.

Tiesto pulled about 5000 I would think in March, but most of the ppl didn't even know what to do cause they were so used to House. He finished off with "Flesh" and everybody was just standing there - except for me who was just losing myself.

But I think it is making a turn around since local DJ's don't pull that many ppl anymore cause they are sick off the same old crap every weekend. SA is just waiting for someone to show them the way. Maybe I should rise to the occasion.

But our women are very fine though ..... (They make it worth visiting)
