fear and loathing in miami...(a luzzumentry)
thurs:
we arrived at around 4:00pm or so.
we went to wet willies first thing when we arrived. got ourselves a round of call-a-cabs which were extremely delicious. saw master chiarello and his boy there.
after that we attempted to goto the get physical party at the gansevoort unfortunately it was too late upon our arrival and they wouldn't let us in telling us it was going to end at 8 and we arrived at 7:40, oh well.
went back to the hotel, got ready, pregamed a bit then headed to space terrace for lawler and company.
great night overall. whoever opened up the terrace that night (looked like a little german guy, tiefschwarz maybe?) was amazing. opened up with some sick 118 bpm groovers that got me going for sure. the bass on the terrace is the best part, so much oomph to it, love it. only problem is the high's are a bit much as i had ringing in my ears throughout my whole time down there.
anywho, tanzmann went on after that little guy and rocked it proper. couldn't id anything but it was just some great uptemo bumpin' house. lawler was sick too as with voorn. doope night overall.
friday:
we went to the sander k/desyn boat party. this was amazinggg. good vibes all around, not too packed, not too empty, just right. open bar with not too long of a line. was just a perfect party. as oppose to who rocked it more, sander or desyn? definitely sander..
at this point i was running on no sleep for almost 2 days so we decided to sleep friday night which was a very wise choice...
saturday am:
we got food then went to the get lost party. unfortunately we weren't in the state of mind that everyone was in at that party and decided not to stay too long. that party should have been called light and dark. you had 2 options, being in the dark inside freezing or being a sweatbox outside in the blaring sun..i didn't like any of those options so we left early haha. man that party takes the cake as the most fucked up bunch of crackie's i have ever seen. ouch lol.
after that crackbox...
we ended up going to the bentley rooftop for some of the nyc locals as well as fortier and paulo mojo. great party that was. good vibes all around and music was on point throughout the whole afternoon/night.
we went to beach plaza (which is also where we were staying) right after to check out jody wisternoff at 8:30. loveeeed his set of course. played alot of the tracks from the album and was just good vibes all around.
saturday night:
we went to the sulli party for a bit then went with yumPOP to digweed at vagabond. MY GOD, digweed was PHENOMINAL!. probably the best technical set i heard down there without a doubt. perfect flow and vagabond itself was a really cool venue. we left at around 6 which was a little early due to my friend not feeling to well, man i wanted to close that out. i'm sure he was amazing till the end
sunday am:
we went to sunday school at around 10:45: caught a bit of soul clap outside, cool vibe they had, nice 115 bpm spacey disco cuts. vincenzo played after and started his set with ronda-folana...dooope start right there, played a few of his own tracks as well but kind of lost me at the end of his set and playing tom middleton's remix of orbital-halcyon right before middleton goes on is amateur hour lol. middleton went on after vincenzo and was great, played some great deep house. rest of the day got foggy for me so don't remember much of the other acts, although i remember us getting really bored from seth troxlers set and decided to leave sunday school and head to the bentley rooftop to catch add2basket and jody wisternoff again. unfortunately both of them never showed up which sucked (heard some crazy story about porter and jody's night before and wasn't amazed he wouldn
t be there haha) but we still enjoyed ourselves there.
by sunday night at around 8 we called it quits and went back to the hotel to just unwind and drink ourselves to sleep till our flight in the am.
overall it was a great wmc. had a great time with great friends and good people.
only thing that surprised me was there was absolutely no wmc 'bomb' this year like prior. maybe it's the way most house tracks are nowadays with little to no hook and just deep vocal cuts which don't stand out from the other?
not sure, but it is a new generation, 2010. can't wait to go next year! man, if i can go back, i'd so hit up that loco dice/luciano party..from the looks at some of the videos i seen, that seemed to be the party of the conference
