I kill to have some HARD BANGIN techno played in there consistently

I play techno there almost every weekend on either Friday or Saturday

Haven't stuck around for a Sunday morning yet but Rudee/Loco have been booking some solid djs (for the most part). Paranoid Jack, Kenny Glasgow, Flipside...

Originally posted by Ni-Cd I can't stress how important an opening DJ's set is for a club like Cozo or The Basement--people are coming in (mostly) after a night of partying and need some serious tunes to pick them up and re-energize them. Having a poor set with next to horrible mixing is instant death for any wanna-keep-going partier. Thankfully the powers that be saw the damage being done and rectified it quickly.

What the fuck?

Originally posted by The Highroller A good place to start would be to play different music than pitched up banging house which is the only thing you can hear at 95% of the EDM/afterhours nights on any given weekend.

Yes unfortunately this is the standard for music in TORONTO. All n00bs here want is hard and banging shit.

It isn't all like you say. But Sunday morning, banging stuff is probably needed to get the blood going. What would you like to hear on a Sunday morning at an after hours club?

Bas - ? What's your challenge? I missed it.

Speaking of banging sets... El Duran posted this set on HA recorded from basement...and I can't help but really like it; ESPECIALLY given all the locals edits and remixes of the tunes. I'm alright with the n00bs wanting stuff like this.
