Originally posted by Surface Atlanta Beginning this week, SURFACE will debut a new event after each one passes.
This new event will be located on the first page of our sticky forum topic where the full calendar can be seen. This should minimize the number of postings while giving all of you something"New" to look forward too after each SURFACE event concludes.
Here is the first event release:
Saturday, 12/10 - DJ DAN
@ The #1 Club in the U.S "Compound"
In addition to that SURFACE will be hosting live mixes every Sunday by our featured artist of the week at www.surfaceatl.com.
This week we are presently hosting Above & Beyonds award winning Essential mix.
Finally, our new DJ format at Compound will be as followed:
We all know how strong our local DJ's are here in Atlanta. With that said, ALL Surface residents and locals playing these events will be closing the nights at Compound with the headliners going on around 12am and playing until 2:00.
For all of you DJ's & producers out there, make sure you join our forum at www.surfaceatl.com and post links to your Demo's.
We have a show coming up at the Mark and we are getting ready to start the voting. We want to support our locals as much as possible!
So if you need help hosting your mix, let me know and I can help you out with that.
These are all efforts that SURFACE is working towards to provide each of you with A New Experience.
We look forward to these upcoming shows and I hope that all of you enjoy Above & Beyond this Friday at Eleven 50!
Remember the instore meet and greet tomorrow at Satellite Records starting at 6:00pm!
I wanted to clarify this one point. With regards to the headliners going on at 12:00 instead of the normal, 1:00.
Compound has an early crowd and for those of you who were at CL can attest to how full the club was by 12:15.
Anyway, the club wants their headliners going on no later than 12:15 so thats why we are faced with the 2-3 situation.
Hope that answers your question...
Best regards,
Jonathan
Ok Jonathan,
First off, thanks for clearing up how things work. I believe that most people thought it was either the promoter or the club who were setting the times.
Here is the question I have for you... I have seen it with my own two eyes, a DJ gets into the set and wants to keep spinning. (The the paticular case that I am thinking the club wanted to close and so they shut off the DJs equipment. SHAME ON YOU 1150) Anyways, Lets say that you have a headliner who goes on at 12:00 and you have a local DJ who is all set to drop it at 2:15 for the last 45 min, If the headliner WANTS to keep playing please tell me that you would let them! Even if that means that the local DJ does not get to see the inside of the booth for the night!

Sure, we are not going to tell the headliner they have to stop. Its up to them. If they want to keep playing then, by all means have fun! I would have backed off to let Christopher keep playing.
You all will get everything out of the night, I promise!!
Best,

Good point. Let them play and then just promise the local DJ he'll get next crack at it again.
P.S. I know Dave Dresden wouldn't approve of 2 hours sets.

BTW - We have a show almost every weekend throughout the rest of the year and even into next. Within these events there will be quite a few extended sets. I am right there with you regarding the 2+ hour sets...

We have had MANY 3 hour sets. The problem is that in the past, people dont generally come out that early. Everyone wants to have it but when you give it to them, where is that crows asking for the extended set.
Like I already stated, if the DJ wants to do an extended set they always have that option. We will never stop that.
I think you forget sometimes that I am not just a promoter. This is my personal contribution to the local scene here. I want to hear the music as much as you do!
No one is trying to cut anyone short. We are working to give you something new to experience and I will never stop with that.
Best,
JA
