I had not seen him since 2002 at ((())) and whoaa.....
We got there around 10:30PM and Jeff did an exceptional job to get things set up for Satoshi. Got the club warmed up beautifully. Was nice to meet you Jeff, on the steps by the dj booth, we chatted for a bit, I was the blond dude with the white wmc tshirt (Chris). Sorry I did not meet more TA members - perhaps I was in my bubble!
I preferred Satoshi's set over Hernan's at Shine for wmc, for sure. Satoshi's programming, track selection/sequencing is flawless.
Satoshi delivered us a 5-hr dark epic prog musical journey. He built things up at the perfect speed - so smooth. No weird, cold, robotic noises, but the occasional well-placed twisted sounds that plays with your head. He proved to us why he's the master of that sound. Carefully weaving deep sounds incorporating many sub-genres to create a unique mood. He had the place under his spell and most of us did not stop to dance at any point during his performance. I was hoping the last track would be more on a melodic trip to end things, but it ended quite harshly. Either to make a statement, or he had his orders to shut down. Regardless, I had to shake his hand at the end.
Indeed, congrats to the Footwork Team for 5 great years!
