Zach, i don't think charlotte has EVER gotten a trance artist booked that wasn't a well known star. We had Dj Micro get booked here years ago, but he was an american icon back then. Besides him we have never gotten any trance here besides the usual suspects...Ferry, Tiesto, Armin, Markus, BT, Acosta. This is a first for us to get such a powerful lesser known artist like this. Make the trip up man. Friday night for Gareth can't be beat. |
Yeah, I know you guys have been getting a lot of the big names, but not many unique names to the area. I've watched the Charlotte scene grow a lot the past year or two. You guys get a lot of the people we get, and in this case, a great person we may not get. It's good for you guys and glad you can get to hear some of this stuff without driving 4 hours to Atlanta. I'd love to make the trip, but funds may not allow me too. Just got back into school.

It's not so much that we're getting more "house" DJ's as much as we are getting a wider variety of DJ's in general. House is a much broader genre than trance. Desyn, Migs, Voorn, Aoki, Sasha - no two are anything alike (regardless of whether you like them) but they are all loosely defined as house. Trance DJ's are less dissimilar, both in mixing style and track selection. (No discredit to their production. Gareth is a very talented musician.) |
I see what you're saying and I agree. There is a lot of variety in those names even though they probably play very similar stuff at times. I know a lot of trance djs do tend to play a lot of similar stuff. For example, I've seen at least 3 different djs play Big Sky in their set along with other songs that seem to make its rounds among the trance djs. As long as they are playing mostly different stuff and I'm enjoying it, I'm still rooting for more trance.
