Hate to say this Darren...but you were kissin his ass at Gatsby.
"Armin I really appreciate A State of Trance, etc etc":toothless
As for me..I liked him more back in 2000-2003 production wise, but unlike Tiesto and Oakenfold, I still have yet to see a live set of his that has let me down. I enjoyed his sets at Gatsby, Spin in Miami, and the Meridian and getting to chat with him at all 3 events, he's still a down to earth bro.
Granted his productions in the last 2 years haven't been my thing, I could say the same for the other major headliners to include paul van dyk. But the bottom line being if I can have a great time at there shows and not get bored and leave early, chances are I will continue to support em when they come to town.

i would have to agree with screen
armin has fallen off... i feel his last good cd that he put out was the amnesia 2004 live
astot 05 was really good... but after listening to it over and over again... its like... damn it gets worse the more i hear it.
the only good time i heard armin play an awesome set was when he was in houston in 04...
im slowly convincing myself that armins best year was 04 just like oakeys best year was 99 ....
SOME ONE CHANGE MY WAY OF THINKING !!! |

Armin van Buuren....
I had seen Armin live 3 times up until this point. Last year's Trance Energy, @ Space in October, and recently in Los Angeles for Armada night. Everytime I'd seen him, I thought he was kinda average to ok, but as I kept on seeing him, he kept getting better, so naturally when I saw him this time I wasn't expecting too much.
Boy was I wrong.
He absolutely in' RIPPED it last night. Like never before. All banging, hard-hitting stuff. NO sleepy, progressive trash ala....well, you know who I mean. ;) Someone gave me a theory that he was saving that for the Armada stage, so that was even more reason NOT to go there. :haha: And so I didn't. :haha: :haha: Armin played like maybe one weak song, but even then, it didn't ruin the flow of the set. Energy.....from start to finish. Eric IDd Control Freak, and I got some video of that for Lis. ;) The real moment where I knew that Armin, IMO was the DJ of the night for Trance Energy 2006, was when he dropped Marcel Woods - Advanced (Original) and the entire mainstage area just became unglued. Insanity everywhere, and got some video of that for Mel <3. GET THIS SET. His set was accompanied by the sickest IN’ lasers I have ever seen. I got a ton of pics of those. They were too good to pass up. He closed with John O'Callaghan - Vendetta. TOO SWEET. That's all else I'll say about Armin. BIG thumbs up this time around. If he kept playing like this, I wouldn't shun him so much. They should book a separate area for him to play the slow, retarded progressive filth like Tracking Treasure Down at all his gigs. :haha: And funny thing is, I heard a certain DJ who shall remain nameless played that autistic song at the Armada stage. So glad I didn’t even CONSIDER going to that fragfest of a stage. :haha: Nice job on keeping the garbage tracks off the mainstage! :D NEXT! |
