Last night will be a night I will soon not forget.
I had a lot of fun with all of you and thanks to all of you for the birthday wishes and the special TA rendition of "Happy Birthday" during Tiesto's "Magikal Journey", though I'm sure Tiesto would have been appalled lol!
I'm glad that many of you enjoyed my set, it was a pleasure spinning for you all again. It's unfortunate that the soundsystem is not exactly anything to be desired and the cutting out of the speakers did get annoying especially for me!
I'll post a playlist of my set soon if I can remember what I played hahaha.
Trancearmada - good opening set, you played some pretty funky stuff
"My foot wants to be a DJ, My ears want to be DJ's.....My D@#K wants to be a DJ"
Deepgroove - great as always, dropping some classic BOMBS! A special thanks goes out to these guys because without them none of these TA invasions would have been possible. THANKS!
Sarah Mixington - great set good driving techno the whole way through and tight mixing...I tried to introduce you to my gf LiL_Kandi_Angel after your set, but there were too many ppl crowding around you to congratulate you; so I figured I'd introduce you later, but I didn't see you after that....maybe next time.
Percurser - great set from what I heard, energetic trance and tight mixing as well. Too bad I had to leave because I was enjoying your set but some of the people that came with me were tired and wanted to go home.
Az - I'm glad I was able to aid in turning your awful day into a great night.
Bizz - nice seeing you again, msg me on ICQ when you get a chance
Eso - thanks for the b-day beers, its always fun hanging out with you
Pixiechick - Erica it was finally nice to meet you, hope to see you at another party soon.
nismodreams - nice to meet you, and I'm glad you enjoyed the choons.
Endlesswave - always a pleasure
Highroller, Diginut & Hordash - techno feinds!! nice to see you all again.
Desidel - BOH BOH!
E2iek1el - Thanks for organzing this, and thanks for the screwdriver :crazy:
Swamper - Thanks for the heads up on Artik, and it was nice meeting your friend Carlos
Matt & Tara - Thanks for the B-day wishes Matt, too bad I didn't get a chance to say Hi to Tara that night, next time.
High On PSI - thanks you and the rest of the crew for coming out.
Sober_24/7 - thanks for coming out this time, and I'm glad you enjoyed the set, we have to hook-up again sometime soon.
RyanM - nice partying with you again
Mike & Jenna - you guys are the best!
Navid - haven't seen you in a while so it was nice to chat and party with you again
Stylez & Waxen - Where'd you guys go???? Saw you at the begining of the night but then you guys disappeared.....
I met some other people that night as well, but I just can't remember right now.....
Ok that's it! I'm exhausted now.......back to BED! hahaha |

oks so i guess i'll post a review now .. :)
after accidentally almost leaving 1 hour early for work this morning (7:45am) and catching the Vince CArter charity game at the ACC .. i wasn't sure if i'd be able to make it in one piece tonite after comin down with a bad stomach ache earlier in the day ..
anyways .. oks so onto the review:
The Event
What an amazing night. The crowd level in the VIP room I found this time around was just perfect. There was plenty of space to dance. Air circulation was well established, and those AC vents blowing down from the ceiling added a nice touch. Also good to see that the sound system in the VIP was finally fixed up (i didn't notice cutting??) and for some reason the decor and environment seemed a lot cleaner this time around.
I arrived with my co-worker Sean at approx. 11:15pm. By then the VIP was already filling up as TranceArmada was setting the mood inside. I was surprised to see all the TA's that weren't originally on the roll call, that was about 3 times as many ppl !
Anyways, the vibe and energy inside was surreal. It's always awesome seeing some crowd favourite TA DJ's take to the decks as well as seeing new up and coming ones take it to the crowd for the first time. At one moment I looked inside the VIP and then looked outside into the main room. We were destroying it in the VIP! The energy of the crowd and the TA massive made it no other than the place to be. I personally enjoyed this event over the last Invasion party.. and for those coming out thanks for coming out again! TA is definately getting stronger and our massive grows ..
AFter some amazing sets by all our DJ's I finally left around 5am with Endless, Hordash, HardcoreTrancer, and Eso along with my co-worker Sean.
The DJ's
TranceArmada
After arriving just after 11:15pm I didn't have an opportunity to catch all of ARt's set. However, the tracks he was laying down early on was setting the perfect mood for things to come. A very nice blend of prog-house with some techy-breaks it sounded like towards the end.
DJ Möbius
What can I say, such a pleasure as always to hear this guy spin. Imho one of the most technically gifted trance DJ's on TA today. Carlos never ceases to impress me with his track selection and flawless mixing. Really got the VIP room crowd going crazy around 11:45pm and that happy bday throwout for him by JOhn was a nice touch as well. Look out Sept .. big tingz gwan! :toothless ;)
Deep Groove
Great set by 2 amazing resident DJ's of system. After hearing Carlos' awesome set, the crowd was ready to be put into a state of Euphoria. Deep Groove did just that as they dropped an exclusive old school trance set where most of the tunes you would not find newer than 2000. Just some of the tracks dropped include:
William Orbit - Barber's Adagio for Strings
System F - Out of the Blue
Energy 52 - Cafe Del Mar
Art of Trance - Madagascar (System F Remix)
and none other than ..
Binary Finary - 1998 :eyespop:
The songs brought back some great memories of what the old school scene was all about. THe BLC, a great vibe, great music, and above all great people.
Sarah Mixington
For someone who had never played infront of such a large live crowd this girl did not cease to amaze me. A sick techno set that kept the place moving like crazy after Deep Groove's insane classic set. Sarah openned with Underworld - Born Slippy which made the place go wild and kept it banging all nite long. It was nice being able to hear some techno at an Invasion party as we were able to mix it up this time around for a change. As much as the DJ feels she erred on certain areas I thought the mixing was flawless and only after a short hour I was totally spent. Totally looking forward to hearing Sarah spin again at a future event. TOTA has a new Techno Queen!
DJ Precurser
Andrew got the tuff job of cleaning up the night and he did a fine job at that. Dropped a lot of newer tracks for all the hardcore TA's still left in the VIP into the wee hours of the morning. Was great to see such variation in sets with Deep Groove's oldskool set, and then with Andrew's new skool set. Aside from the minor technical difficulties he was having on the mixer, the set had great flow and kept everyone going till the very end. He closed off the night with .. Solar Stone - Seven Cities (forget what mix though) as a fitting end to a very memorable night..
