So displeased! I was the most shocked of all with Tyas' performance. I never thought I would hear that from him. His last 4 tracks were good and his typical style (or typical previous style apparently lol). But there was just no redeeming the set, the damage was already done. I spent a good chunk of his set in the Acid Lounge, where Greg Gow was actually playing amazingly. The crowd that night was something else also. I was basically in an extremely large top 40 club. I hadn't been to a Saturday event at Guv in ages, and I did not like what I saw. It really is unfortunate. At least we all have our memories!
You should have stuck around for Simon Patterson & Ashley Wallbridge who both, in my opinion, played great hard hard sets to finish off the night.

Here is the plain truth of the matter. The main promoters are now only booking based on an artists radio plays. DJ mag is irrelevant in most situations, although it is still an important part of the overall picture. I get messages all the time from people...When are you coming to my city?? Well...the honest answer is, I won't be coming to your city unless a smaller promotor brings me to a smaller club or I get radio support and the main promotors book me. What I mean by radio support is regular rotation on the radio station's playlist. Guys like Dash Berlin, Avicii...etc have all blown up seemingly overnight just because of radio play. Many of these "producer" type DJs are playing mainstage sets ONLY because of their radio presence. Whether or not they can even mix is irrelevant. This has made me evaluate where I am as an artist. I love the music and the scene, and I also know that the gigs will dry up if I do not evolve as an artist.
There are many, many artists out there that will do anything to stay in the spotlight. I cant say I have any sympathy for them if they have to do what it takes with their sound to make the most money possible. There is proof it can be done without selling out your soul, tons of underground artists making a living touring; even in this time.

guy's like j00f,airwave,solar stone,orkiedia have been around for years and have never changed their sound...
they may not be the richest guys but they are loyal to the pure trance sound
