I won't be there, but tell me if he drops his mix of 'Number One'. That's definately one of my favorite house tracks out there today --- I went absolutely nuts when van Helden dropped it @ Pacha a few weeks ago!
Oh, and Eco, I agree with you to a certain extent. By this point, I love house just as much as I love trance, but the 'sameness' of house is something that I've come to expect, and perhaps love. Much of the beauty of house music comes out when you've listened to the same (or similar) beat for a while and get more and more loose on the dancefloor --- before long, you'll be stomping with the best of them! Silly points aside, the reason for EDM's recent tendancy to 'sound the same' is not something that I'm prepared to tackle. It might be that only certain DJs come to NYC, or that when a DJ comes to NYC he DJs in a way that would be more readily accepted by an NYC crowd (in other words, in a more 'housy' way). We haven't seen DJs that play completely different styles, like Yoji Biomehanika, or the Gabber DJs headline at NYC's big clubs (I've heard something about Gabber parties in the city, but nothing in say, Crobar or Spirit) --- perhaps if groups like this played, we'd have a different perspective on the EDM scene alltogether (Hehe, I know I'd be down for some noisy hardcore).
Those are just my thoughts.
