Beta is amazing - went there for the first time tonight and I was pretty blown away. Steve Bug and Modeselektor were fucking amazing too. Tonight was a landmark night for the Denver EDM scene as a whole, IMO...

Was really nice to finally hear some techno in this city... I'd like to see more acts like Bug, we need some fresh blood out here.

How about Bodzin, Romboy, or Huntemann??

Originally posted by thenightinvader wasnt too impressed by beta. sound is good. but its nothing that special. a hyped up vinyl.

i don't know what club you went to...beta was fantastic.

Ill hit Beta up in May for the first time - artists i like around then. By then everything should be up and running and Ill see how it compares with the european clubs. But yea, dress code should be enforced - get a classy club going. I think its funny how the church tries to pass as a club now by having seats behind the floor setup haha.

How is the balcony overlooking the danceloor at Beta? Is it crummy like a rock venue like cervantes and gothic or is it more of a club balcony? Balconies add a shit ton to a club imo. Make it more massive club like. Is the outside appearance club like? Does it read club or just a line outside a crummy building and you have to know its a club beforehand instead of driving by? I mean are there lights outside, name of the club, etc.?

JUSTICE was sick by the way. anyone make it to this?

Originally posted by kabelicious You better not be teasing, sir! Danny is up there with my fav long-set DJs - please say he'll get to spin longer than 2 hours? Who needs an opening DJ with Tenaglia - the man can open for himself and spin the whole 5 hours. Regardless, THERE if you're not fibbing!

Here you go

Sunday May 25th
Danny Tenaglia
http://www.myspace.com/dannytenaglia


Danny will be playing an extended set. The club will be opening early on Sunday.

Oh, and a semi good view of the club

Shite, well, if I don't end up at DEMF, I'll at least get to see both Zabiela and Tenaglia in one weekend.

As for Beta, it is perhaps the *best* clubbing experience I've had sound-wise since the days of BOA/Sonic in Toronto. It was amazingly clean and the crowd was the best I've seen at a club in Denver.

I disagree on dress code - everyone there would pass anyone's standards and the crowd that draws a dress code would make the club suffer in terms of atmosphere. I can stand happy go lucky ravers any night but stuck up drunk high-heeled party girls and tweeking Guidos are worse than being struck on the head by falling beer bottle or slipping in puke.

Another great surprise - the lounge is sound-proofed from the main room so there is very, very little sound bleed. This is something I'd never thought someone would pay such attention to so congrats to Beta.

Steve Bug and Modeselektor were amazing - best techno I've heard in Denver since Richie last year. I miss techno more than anything living away from Detroit so KEEP IT COMING! How about some Adam Beyer or Collabs 3000 on that system? I'd think I could die happy then.

all three yes plz - also i'd kill to hear hawtin//magda on that bad boy.


people need to remember that this is denver colorado - this isn't LA or NYC or even Chicago.

i think beta is a phenomenal club for denver and I know they're still working on it.

Avalon in LA is the only club that i've been to in the US that imo has better sound than what i experienced at beta on saturday.

omega if you're passing along suggestions to brad, i have one suggestion and one request.

suggestion
have them add newcastle to the bars, shit if you could get them to add peroni too that'd be ace, but newcastle at the least.

request
also - please please please have lee burridge play open to close he will fucking destroy that place

thanks in advance

What do you put into your live sets that has made you a dancefloor favorite for the past decade?

"I’m a dance floor favorite? Great! I would say the passion that I feel for the music I buy and the honesty with how I play it. I play the records I love not the ones that simply work. I’ve never taken the easy music option (which would make me a lot more money by the way) but chosen to push people a little. I try to draw people in a new direction slightly and expand their taste a little more than other DJ’s." - Lee Burridge

to all the WMC goers...hope you all have a good time...i want to hear all the stories and pics when you get back hehe
