heres my little review:

we got there at 13:00 saturday. the setup was ok, but you gotta love hardcore camping (everybody who came in saturday with a tent knows exacly what im talking about). Security & police were all over the place, and I think they did a great job (at least i didn't notice any incident). I was there for thrillseeker and fleming, but I also wanted to hear new stuff.

+: Im new to d&b and i must say : wow. I was amazed by this type of music. Great work MCs. from now on I will have to say that SOMES D&B MCs are artists! (but hey, the 'stfu during trance sets' rule is still in effect).

+: Everybody, Its a great thing to see new generations of open minded people that respect each others. Hard core ravers, casual candys, clubbers, ginos, goths, MCs, all hands together to create special vibes. Worked for me.

+: sound, outdoors even are so nice. If its to loud, you just move away. If its not loud enough, you just go sit next to the guy whos hears are bleeding (wtf man!)

enough flowers

-: To a DJ playing in the afternoon saturday. DO NOT stop the track the previous DJ putted on. EVEN IF IT IS NOT YOU STYLE. EVEN IF IT MEANS YOU WILL LOSE 1-2 minute of you play time. some of us are actually listening to whats coming out of the speaker. whats better; start a set with a slight 3 minutes delay, or start a set with angry, unsatisfied listeners wondering 'why the hell did he do that for'. I will not remember you for your set (maybe because I left after your fabulous intro). BTW congratz to the previous DJ for the set that ended with that so nice brisky remix, I didn't know at the time, but it was going to be the best trance track of the weekend.

-: Speaking of trance. it sucked. I mean, OK so there is a stage, sponsored by TRANCEAddict, with a mix of house djs and trance djs. Good! so i though : house music, AND trance music (shame on me for expecting that.) After Jelo's set, (was good!) i though we would go more into trancy stuff to introduce thrillseeker, and then followed with Mr. fleming back to more 'dancing floor approved' tracks. But it didnt happen. Great intro by Scott Stubbs, the dance floor was ready for some of the best epic trance Mr Helstrip had to offer... And we received tracks like Yellow "Oh Yeah" and Randy Katana - Play It Loud. CMON, I paid 75 $ to hear one of the greatest trance producer! Play some of your stuff, play something you do like ! not thoses crappy fillers. But the dance floor was responding. Some were expecting trance, others were expecting 'something' different. the trance community was not properly represented by thrillseekers. of course we had our Synaesthesia (sublime would have been better) but you know what, I can listen to that 'new track' 'born slippy' at home. As a headliner, you play your style and let the other dj follow you. Even more in a mixed genre environment, listeners are ready for that. If not, then its the organizers's problem. And the trance fans are still happy.

Fleming, did a good job, but I was soooo dissapointed at thrillseeker that wasnt really in the mood.

I didn't know the others DJ after Fleming, but hey Mark EG is a crazy man. (Maybe too crazy note: the music will not play propely if you drop a 24 500ml water bottles case on the turntables, but I guess he knows that now )

Great set by Savage. smooth mixing, nothing to complicated, but it was ok like that.

I was dissapointed (again) when I realized they didn't finished the night with trance DJs, (I didnt know what to expect from Drag N Fly and Bratan). But you know, Outdoor event, Sun rising, TranceAddict's stage ? maybe, eu.. Trance ?

Trance is dying here. And even tranceaddicts don't care.

Jo

Oh man where to start

I fucking love WEMF!! I had such a fucking blast. I'm probably going to have more negatives than positives but I still had the time of my life as always, I don't let little petty shit bother me.

I really only hit up the 4/4 stage with the exception of a few minutes here and there in the hardcore room (which had a terrible sound system).

The 4/4 stage was fucking sweet. Great lights, great sound, assloads of room, it was great. Thrillseekers really rocked. I died when he dropped Synthesasia, and that other song, shadowsomethingorother. I didn't catch JOOF, but I hear he kicked some ass. OS/2's set was all over the place, jumping from Cosmic Gate to False Light, to Public Domain, no flow at all, but, it was REALLY fucking fun ahahah! Anne Savage was great too. BAAAH acctually all the music fucking rocked on the 4/4 stage!

I played a really sweet set on the DCM's Renegade, which I recorded, gonna upload it later. I listened to it on the way home, it's like perfect yay!

I found ten bux and a bag of 6 pills on the ground haahha.

Great to see all you TOTA's again. Andrew, nice job on the mainstage, pretty much a flawless set.

Keith, great to see you again bro, that track of yours sounded sweet on the loud speakers. I was pretty rocked and sorta wandered off before you finished, then I couldn't find you again when it wore off hahaha.

Jem, good times dude. The only TA who outlasted me on the dancefloor. Woulda been a whole nother story if I dropped though ahhahaaha.

I saw DJ IRENE by the mainstage!

You Canadians really know how to fucking party. I'm so sad to be home. I think I'm going to go set my tent up in the yard, and play 6 different kinds of music at the same all around me and pretend I'm still @ WEMF.

AAAAH! I love WEMF! See you all again soon!

It's officially Monday and I haven't slept yet really...just the 2 hours in the tent from like 6-8 yesterday morning.

I had a fantastic time at WEMF. It was brilliant. sooo sketchy haha. I met some awesome new people, and I prolly forget most of your names already (it's not personal, i just suck at remembering names!)

Tree-saw (Theresa..yeah, iunno why i called you tree-saw lol) i love youuuuu but didn't get enough time hanging out with you
Lowell - ahaha you weren't supposed to be at the stage!!
Ola - you are so much fun! *muah*
Jay - you are awesome and soooo hilarious! "Katie, ask j00f if he wants you to suck his cock! say it with a serious face." thanks for everything you did for me, and it was so much fun with you on the stage!
Mikey - nice seeing you for the 2 hours or so that you were around. I hope everything is better now
Drew and Dannie - you guys always put a smile on my face!
Dima - ahaha it took you long enough to find me!! fun times dancing to whoever that was
Adi & co. - glad you guys made it up for WEMF!! hope you had fun
Linz - thanks for the tent usage. you are awesome
Vidman - glad we got to see eachother again

aah there's so many others that i was happy to see. I'm glad that everyone seemed to have a good time.

My WEMF highlight was definitely John '00' Fleming's amazing set. I love him so much. He looked really happy to be spinning at WEMF, and he is a wikkid down-to-earth guy. Right after he finished the set, I did an interview with him and it went really well. ahaha it was my very first official DJ interview. I will post it after I finish some things.

call them out call them out!

4/4 Stage music

Friday
liberator - Perfect set. Very hard and very acid.
Sat
Scott Stubbs - bullshit. Mixing sucked. Played some cheesy tracks like Operation blade remix and remix of childen.
Thrillseekers - SICK. I expected euphoric mellow trance but he played sick tech trance. Punked (sean Tyas Remix), Direct Dizko (SVD mix), Oh yeah (SVD mix) Synaesthesia. Thrillseekers respect
Joof - solid shit. Good psy tunes. I enjoyed a lot
Mark EG - amazaing.
Anne Savage - Amazing. couple of cheesy tracks played but fuck hard nrg is a fucking perfect music for dancing. I had a lot of fun.

I must agree wholeheartedly with you on this. I was absolutely appalled. Cliques are disgusting and really need to be weeded out.Are we still in highschool or something? Or must we have our "gangs" that stick together like the hip hop scene now?
Leave me out of that one!!

Saw tonnes of other TA's, some of which were absolutely freakin' rude. I was a little shocked at how ignorant some of you were. I clearly said hello to a group of TA's I recognized, and you all just snubbed me and walked away. If you are going to be a part of a community, I suggest you drop your little cliquey B.S. qualms with people, and have a little courtesy to at least say hello.

Rodrico, that's Josée.

Sorry I never got to see you, I heard you were at our freaking tent, but at that point I was trying to catch a few hours of sleep bc I still hadn't slept yet, and I needed to be able to fucking bust it ALL NIGHT till ALL the music had stop.


WEMF 3DAY - I got about 3.5 hours sleep, and then only bc I forced myself, not bc I reallywanted to. Thank god I did, otherwise, NO way id have had the energy I did to go to the end!

HIPPIE TRIPS are the best!

Thanks, Ill need to be seeing that pic girl.

Its "BLACKNESS", lol, not "black man"... and his real name is Jay, but really he just goes by Blackness!

Originally posted by Rodrico I know, but in the end, you cant imagine everyone looking to be nice, even if you do know them in some way. Even tho I am very blunt and rude on here to some people, I am really the opposite outside and very welcoming, but I think it could be a pain in the ass to have to be nice and welcoming to every single person who says they post on TA, just because you share a single common interest doesnt mean you are forced to like everyone. Its not really enough to expect anything special, cause in reality most of us are pretty much strangers.

Although genearlly I'd subscribe to the idea of being polite and just saying hi back instead of snubbing ppl if they saying are hi,

i hafta agree w/ Rod's words here too!

Fucking awesome Rob! Man, this was my best WEMF yet musically!!! INSANITY! I loved the variety of the fucking 4x4 tunes I was listening to and loving more than breasts or life itself! SO AMANZING!

Dude, great fucking partying with your ass!

LOL I outlasted all the TAs and had the fucking TIME OF MY LIFE on Saturday night and even more so early sunday morning... not to down play Friday... fuck that was insanity too... God that walk a group of us too was surreal! I did know know where the fuck we were!


"DAVE! We're looking for Dave!" "DAVE the Percussionist"

Drew, you rock man! Me you and andrew were fucking riddiculous!

Seeing fucking Petty all of a sudden there around 4 or 5am at the Renegade stage where Dave and Chris LIberator and some drunken DJ HAMMERED off his fucking ass train wrecking EVER mix.... gold!!!

Man, this wemf was nuts.. from the convos me and Jay had with Lars and Alex passed out in the back seat.... which was tripping them out...
