Also I noticed you work for the Canadian Forces so depending on if your an Officer or an NCM (non-Commissioned Member) and your now in Kingston by the looks of it so your no longer on your basic training where you get paid peanuts. So like I said depending on if your an NCM or Officer and your rank, you probably make at least $50,000 a year but most likely more. And depending on if you live at CFB Kingston your cost of living is probably very low as well, but even if you weren't cost of living in Kingston isn't that bad. Its only $30 which is cheaper than most nights at Stereo. Most of us on here who post about Stereo have put out probably hundreds and hundreds of dollars clubbing there just this year alone, and have never really complained for the most part. I know I sure as hell have.

wow, Nitzer Ebb, they are classic! WRT 140bmp, even most of the downloads I've gotten from the techno time link are too fast for me. Hard charging techno is the best, but not fast charging..

I can admit I was/am quite disappointed with what seemed like a mass migration of my favourite techno DJs playing mellower sets in recent years... but since moving over to this side of the Atlantic, there seems to still be a demand for good pumpin techno!
I'm encouraged by what I have been hearing lately... there don't seem to be as many quality harder tek releases compared to a few years ago, but there are still some and artists playing them.
Give it time... the bpm's will pick up again

because most of the musik played at eclipse was full-on psy-trance, and it's not a very popular genre. If you listen to more psy-trance sets, you'd realise that some DJs still mix that genre (see Guy Salama).

and yes, the music at eclipse ruled !! haven't heard good full-on like that in a long time !

There seemed to be a lot more people at Eclipse than Stereo or Eclipse gets in a month.

Your right the music ruled, it was a nice break from what they play at the clubs.

I just don't get why they don't have a club that plays hard trace and techno every weekend. I am sure it would revive the scene.
Most people like reasably fast beats (not gabberhouse or hardcore) and don't know anything about the music.

Anyways, it's a shame. It used to be great to party in Montréal now it's boring. Altough trancemission and tribeoliscous at Stereo are pretty good.

One thing that is great about the scene in MO is that there are barely any thugs. I partied in Toronto and you have to be really careful.
