It was the usual Armin stuff. Nothing exciting imo. I'm not into that kind of trance anymore anyway. I do like that Sander Van Doorn remix of Control Freak however |

| Armin's last 2 visits to Boston have been the best i've heard him since Spirit way back in November 04. He seems like he enjoys Boston very much. With the 2 hours he has, he skips all the build up fluff and plays bomb tracks one after another. I've had a blast, hopefully I can make it to his July shows, 3 days after my 24th b-day, i'm getting so old. |

i went to an armin show about a month ago and his tracklist really hadn't changed since about 2004. if you haven't seen armin in the past few years, you aren't missing much.
(except his cute butt) ;) |

usual = lackluster trance (I used to like his track selection till early 2004) and it was the weakest night I've been to all spring/winter musically for me |

Hellloooo darling! how are you? Haven't spoken to you in a while.
Did you see Armin in DC? i'm not sure what he spun there but his 2 recent tracklists from Boston are all fairly new tracks he's been playing on ASOT.
Armin Van Buuren ft Nadia Ali - Who Is Watching (Tonedepth Rmx)
Armin Van Buuren - Control Freak (Sander Van Doorn Remix)
Re:Locate - Rogue
Kyau vs. Albert - Walk Down (KvA Club Mix)
Gabriel & Dresden - Sydney
Mr. Sam ft Kirsty Hawkshaw - Insight (Aira Force Remix)
Sunlounger - White Sand (DJ Shah's Original Mix)
Enmass - CQ (Randy Boyer vs Kristina Sky Remix) *My request*
Interstate - Remember Me (Terry Bones Remix)
Coldplay - Talk (Junkie XL Remix)
Guissepe Ottavani - Linking People
Karen Overton - Your Loving Arms (Original Mix)
Mark Otten - So Serene (Menno De Jong Fierce Dub)
Jon O'Bir & Gareth Emergy - No Way Back
Ronski Speed - Incognition
Fable - Above
Nic Chaghall - Monday Bar
Arctic Quest - Renaissance
Fragile - Shugyo
David Amo & Julio Navas - Electronic Electro
Substate - Horizon
Nico Parisi vs. Erik Hubo - Metro
Rank 1 - Topgear
Besides Topgear, So Serene...everything else is fairly new and has never been played at avalon boston until that nite. A lot of these tracks were absolute bombs. Hearing Metro, Your loving arms, Monday bar, whitesand and Talk all live was crazy. I know you and Pat are huge house fans but as far as trance goes, this stuff is awesome. |

hey my dear! well, armin isn't THAT bad...i mean, he was one of my first favorite trance djs. but, i am just a house junkie now- so my tastes have definitely changed.
the good thing is i can go to ANY event and have a good time. i went to paul oakenfold about a month ago (oh, the shame) and had a blast.
some people get too caught up on the technical aspect of things, but i definitely know how to enjoy myself to any genre.
how are things with you, my love! how's life in beantown? :D |

I'm a house dj but I do know trance. I just don't care for what's out there and I don't think Armin's set came close to his set from 10/4/03 or 5/28/04. I had more fun at Ferry Corsten

no i agree, I enjoy all types of edm. I mean, trance is my favorite, that's why I have so much fun when a trance DJ comes to Boston, it's so rare. I was pretty pumped to see Ferry and Armin within 2 weeks of each other! But for me, if I have the right people with me, i'll have a good time regardless.
Boston is alright, the weather is awful right now, it's raining. Went to G & D about 3 weeks back at RISE, that was a good time but i've been taking it easy lately. I'm trying to get out of Boston, i'm seriously considering a move to nyc in September. Just trying to find a job, then an apartment :) |
