This party... was something else entirely! Holy shit.
Did anyone go to this? I ran into Colibri and some folk I know from Rhythmism, but other than that the crowd was.... interesting? Maybe if we had been there from the beginning.
Tom and I were looking forward to joining Wai at Pacha, but when we found out it was $80 at the door we were like eff that! And off to BK we went.
I don't know how this event was earlier in the evening, but when we got there we walked into the kind of place your mother would never want you to go. It was in some kind of abandoned looking building. It was also about 9 million degrees in there and god help us if someone had dropped a match in there. 99% of the people in there looked like there were on some whole 'nother kind of level. I said goddamn Tom, do you think they're all shooting up? or smoking crack? I didn't know what it was but it was really sketchy.
They still had a bar open at like 7 and 8 o'clock in the morning, which was nice for me when you could actually get the bartender out of their heroin nod to serve you a drink. We stayed in the back room for a while and the music was ok, but nothing I was used to. Is that what minimal techno is? I don't think I'd ever heard it before. Every time it seemed the music was going one way, they'd change it and have it do something else. I think I much prefer the continuity and flow of a trance or house set.
If it hadn't been for running into those few sane people we knew, I doubt we would have stayed long. Tom and I both said to ourselves that if there was ever a place that looked like it was going to get raided this would be it. Around 9 something the music stopped and I heard some people saying something about the cops. Ok Tom! This is our cue to get in the train and go home! Don't want to stick around for this. I don't know what happened after that, but we left before any trouble may have started.
So had anyone been there earlier in the night? Marcello did you go? Was it like that the entire time or maybe it just turned all sketchy for afterhours. Someone told me that it cost $50 earlier in the night, but by the time we got there we just walked right in through a crowd of dazed and confused revelers. No id check, no search, nothin. Quite honestly that scares me. I feel much more comfortable going somewhere when I'm assured that everyone has been searched for weapons.
So anyone else have any reviews? This was interesting to say the least. |
sorry to hear you guys didn't have a great night. The reviews on rhythmism were very mixed.
I hear what you're saying about minimal. I like it as a building block for a dj within his / her set...but to listen to it all night...yikes, get me outta there.
