I just got up from a 3 hour nap. The first sleep I've had since Saturday morning. I don't care though, the party was fantastic! Great vibe, awesome set-up, unbelievable music and no major incidents as far as I know aside from A-P being a bit late for their set. I sure didn't mind hearing DJ Treavor in the meantime though.

So where did everyone else camp at? I was over by the trees near The Dome.

over by the crappers as you are heading down the road down to the river... next to a mini van.. green and grey tent..

Well my camp was set up by the Dome too, here it is
Now about the party, boy, was it ever humid there. Friday night the main stage DJs were playing decent tracks, but their mixing was not very good. Saturday night it was a different story, but the headline was late and I really think that it would have been a awsome party if AP were there on time. Anyways I still danced untill the end. Here is a picture the stage Sunday around 5 am (I guess I havn't set up the clock of my camera properly).

AP played their regular stuff, which btw was great and the coolest thing that James Katalyst was dancing like crazy among the crowd.

The place was set-up very nice, here are some of the artwork

I also managed to snap some cool images of the fire dancers (I forgot what they were called
All together it was a great show, thank's James and keep up the good work!

PS: One thing surprised me unpleasantly, at some point there was Hip-Hop at the Dome which I totally do not dig, but anyways, oh and BTW, the set that DJ Kristoff played at the Dome was also amazing, maybe next year there are gonna be 2 main stages with more variety, such as Hard Trance, Uplifting Trance, Euro Trance, House, etc....

Definitely a memorable event for everybody involved. It is unfortunate that Astral Projection was on later than scheduled, however considering the problems they went through to make it to Edmonton it is fortunate that they made it at all. Their last flight leg from Toronto to Edmonton was arranged literally minutes before takeoff. Both Astral Projection and James Katalyst worked extremely hard to make sure that they make it to the party on time and both made some major sacrifices for this party to happen. Hopefully everybody had a good time and did not mind this delay.

let me sum it up real quick, I spent loads of money, nearly died from being tired and driving to get there, got super burn't all over, got lost in edmonton, scratched up my car from driving the rocky roads to get there, have spend the last couple days trying to get back to normal, and you know what, it was FUCKIN WORTH IT, DAM, if you missed this event, you missed a one of a kind show and atmosphere, MASSIVE thanks to Katalyst for this event, there better be one next year or I'm forming a gang to come after you.

The DJS were awesome, played really good music, I dunno what it was like in the other tent, but I'm sure Kristoff played a killer set, the sound system was mint, so clear and no distortion, plus they were nice and loud, the visuals were...well....like taking Acid.
Location was awesome, might of been in the middle of nowhere, but was worth the drive, so simply put, if you missed this event, go cry in a corner, once again massive shoutout to all the people who helped get this event going and to all the DJs that provided amazing sets all weekend long.

that was one of the sweetest parties ever

soooooo much fun

and astral projection signed my album

This year's Motion Notion was the best yet. My partner and I gotto tag with Treavor Moontribe on sat night, THAT was fun =)

Nice work James!

Hey party people, I just wanted to personally thank Everyone that came out and had a good time and kept the party going hard.

Id like to thank James greatly for the effort and time that it takes to pull a show like this together, even with the odds against him and Astral Projection missing thier flight and catching the last flight from Isreal to land in Edmonton at 4 am and book it straight to the party. They played the most amazing live PA ive have ever heard. Thanks to Darvin and Norris for letting us do our fire show during their set and for keeping the vibe alive with Trevor moontribe until A.P. got there.

Thanks to the Philipeano boys that were spinning the most amazing fire shows ive ever seen, good work boys. Thanks to my fire troup and Talia for making our fire performance something to remember. Just think six hot chicks pulled together to Show you the art of spinning fire. The Fire mandala ohm at the end was definately the ending touch.

Thanks to the Northern lights, the warm nights, the warm river. The hot sun and the short rain, thanks to the crew that helped Rise Sun City out. Thanks to my friends for rescueing me from my booth so i could go party and have a good time. Thanks to Tara and all those that came out to our workshop.

Thank you Jer and the PK Kru for wikid sound. thanks to Chris Yipp for great visualls all weekend. And thank you Katalyst Productions for bringing the most amazing group of people together for a weekend of pure bliss. There are more ways than one that make this event better than any other festivals and events. For all those that didnt make it , make sure you check this Sh*t out next year!!

Cheers
Zaralea
