i was commenting on how every dj i hear play at the compound manages to drop the best set i've heard out of him. it really is the perfect forum for underground djs imo. three and lazarus were no exception! three is obviously a great dj/person and most people i knew went to hear him and were thoroughly impressed, but let's talk about lazarus for a second... i heard him at vessel once before and he never left much of an impression on me there--neither did three though when he played there. probably because both came on a thursday and the club didn't fill or stay filled. but wow, when damian hit the decks running and took off for about 6 hours, i heard a completely different dj in action and i was loving it. as friends began leaving the compound early, i was like wtf are you all doing??? i couldn't bring myself to leave until the music stopped. when it got bright outside and the space inside cleared out, the music and people remaining got more comfortable and the vibe took on a different life. it was a very intimate party by the end. definitely one of the top 2 compound experiments in my book. it's just unfortunate that more people weren't around to bear witness to the final hours. as always, it was nice to have the la crew come up for this. gil, sorry about the text, it hadn't occurred to me that you left because of that. greg, no worries, good seeing you out. schneider, good job getting your ass kicked by a steel railing!
