Disclaimer: short review and these are my personal views of the evening.

I wasn’t sure if I was going to go to this party, Morales night and no tickets usually means a long queue to get in. If wasn’t because a friend of mine called and told me he could get me a ticket, I probably wouldn’t have gone - last minute decision.

Due to previous engagement, I arrived at around 4:00am at Stereo, short wait to get in, and inside the place was full but not super packed, and the temple was decorated with Spring like accessories.

Personally, the music was okay when I arrived, until it became monotonous, and then just plain boring. Not sure what Ricky Montanari was doing, and I hope next time he is able to understand the crowd, because if that place goes wild right at the moment good upbeat music is played, please keep “that” music going and stop teasing the dancers. Actually, that was not teasing, it was pure torture and I couldn’t wait any longer for Morales to take over the evening. Don’t think the crowd was expecting the mix of Progressive House and Minimal tunes during the first part of the night (?).

Finally a little bit past 5:00am and Morales showed up at the tables, unfortunately it was a short visit because Montanari continued spinning for another hour or so. Morales then came and as usual the crowd when nuts, and this time he stayed. Probably it took a couple of minutes for him to organize himself up there, because the music continued slow, or maybe he was just making a clean transition.

After that Morales did what he does the best, he entertained the crowd until the end. The versatility of the music during the whole evening was great, he took us back in time with some classic tunes, some older classics, moved the dance floor to the present, catapulted us probably to the future, shacked us back to Stereo, and I loved every minute of it.

Almost all walks of life were represented in the dance floor, which is something I really enjoy from Morales nights. I know some of you are saying “but this is the Stereo crowd”, yes indeed, but even more at Morales nights. The special energy was in the air, and how couldn’t be, just looked up and you could see how much fun Morales was having, then just look around and you would see everyone dancing like maniacs, and never losing their smiles or friendliness.

I believe everyone felt sexy dancing under the command of Señor Morales, and it helped he gave us the music for it. From tribal to the great anthems of the days, from techno to whatever else came out of those powerful speakers. Amazing up beat music that used up all my energy by 11:00am - if I can no longer dance, I prefer to leave because it would be torture to stay just listening the those great tunes, while my body is telling me I should be dancing.

Left the dance floor almost apologetically, but I had to go, just to be captivated by the energy down at Stereo bar. Don’t know who was spinning, but it was interesting music. If I had know it was rainy outside, I would probably had stayed a little bit longer.

Thank you Stereo for another great and energetic evening, and gracias Morales por mantener mi sonrisa alegre durante toda la noche.
