what can I say..... you Sydney siders have it pretty good!! Always thought Melbourne was the but think we've got some competition from you guys. Weather, women and clubs were all stellar!!
Friday nite went to the ta meet up. Was good to fianlly meet all the sydney ta's. Big ups to Selena (Chookie) for organising everything. The 3 course meal was really nice, good company and god tunes (despite a few train wrecks along the way!!) lol.
Transmission Afterthoughts....
Rocked up at about 2am, unfortunately missed Liquid M, Stama etc as we got lost and took a little bit to get our together. Finally got in to catch the last bit of John Ferris and I think Jumping Jack (or got of been nervous) not sure as was hard to see.
got there last few tunes:
Clokx - Clocks (Ron van den Beuken Mix)
Igor S - Boomerang
Ricky Foris - No Regular
Next up was Scotty Project. As soon as he jumped on their was a huge roar (think it was obvious who people were there to see). His set was absolutely stellar, nice mix of his own productions and quality fresh hard and banging tunes. can't remember much of what he played but here goes
.
Sensation - The Anthem 2003 (Igor S Remix)
Eruption - I Feel Free (Dj Choose & That Mucho Remix)
SOD Dinero (Sean Dexter Mix)
Arome Overdrive (Scot Project Mix)
honestly, this is terrible but I cant really remembered that much stuff that he played, Overdrive was the encore, but it was an awesome set, well crafted and carried out with precision. ABSOLUTE QUALITY!!
Next up was the boys from Melbourne, Steve B and Hellraiser.
They put on an awesome show played some wicked tunes and really working the crowd. They played heaps a mixture of hard trance and techno. They played
Vitalic La Rock
Scott Brown Bass be Louder (played on 8 apparently)
Merly Dee Paradise
Polartraxx Inspiration
Amber Savage and Yoshi, finished up the night and played a quality morning set that had everyone rocking. Amber was rocking it hard behind the decks, not only can she play but shes a fair hottie as well;)
Think the highlight of their set was
Bartezz- On the move (Dumonde mix)
. gone but not forgotten (absolute anthem)
Overall the night was sensational as was the weekend, met heaps of wicked people. Cheers to everyone that made the effort to come up and have a chat and hopefully we can make it back up there soon :) |

| How was the lighting and stage production? I heard that the Transmission crew had the stage to be set up on the longer side of the Sports centre [instead of the shorter side which it always has been] - therefore more lasers, lights and speakers!!! :eyespop: |

honestly, thought the lighting was good, the lasers (think there were like 6 of the boys) looked wicked, and the stage lights looked pretty cool as well.
But the thing that suprised me was there was no decor??? I'm not a decor junkie or anything but the place looked pretty plain. Sure the lasers were cool, but it didnt look like they went to too much trouble in attempting to create a party vibe (was the only downer). System rocked hard (reemo had the ear plugs in) so it must of been good.
Yeah, we were a little shocked, because down here party organiser spend thousands on decor and it makes the place look crazy and really does create vibe. Every Picture tells a Story did i as do the NRG Parties down here and at $70 a ticket, I thought it was a bit rich honestly. |

a mate of mine claims to have one of only two copies in australia, hellraiser musta borrowed it. :p by my calculations, playing it at -8 still equates to about 145bpm, but why? the sheer madness of it should not be tampered with!!! |

Some of the tracks he played in Perth were
Solar Factor - Urban Shakedown (original) <-- he started his set with this and it ing rocked bigtime
The Gift - Love Angel (MIKE MIx)
Digital Pressure - Unreal
Arome - Visions of Paradise
Scot Project - Rock (i think??)
Arome - Overdrive <--- finished his set with this
Some track with Beach boys - I get around sample in it
Some track with 4 non-blondes - Whats going on ?? sample in it
Plenty of hard acid tracks...:disbelief - some bordering on goa/psy :p
with a smattering of more uplifting hard trance that I hadn't heard before
Twas one of the more memorable sets I have heard this year |

couldnt agree more. He absolutely rocked it, he worked the crowd to a tee while still playing all the freshest tunes. Cant wait to see him play for 3 hours in Melbourne. |
