i love trance, but when it comes to the subject of sensation, i think you are better off leaving it alone. the concept is something that was started out one way and developed into something else. It comes down to this:
they can book whoever they want for sensation; however ty he/she might be, whether they ask ing justin timberlake to perform, it will still sell out. people go for the event and for the name not for the music. Sensation (especially white) will always sell out because it is all about the marketing and it is an event for the masses, not an event for the music lovers. the people that go to black are much more specific about going for that specific music than white. if they were going to ask some performers to come, it should've been to white, not black. id&t got bitten in the ass and they deserve it for letting sensation turn into such a joke
it's sad because it used to be an amazing event, but true. this coming from someone who has been to sensation white & black, lived in amsterdam and now lives in miami, so take my word for it ;) |
Yes everything you say here it's true.
Add on your post:
Duncan Stutterheim (Owner of ID&T) doesn't really know what kind of people are coming to this amazing event and what music they prefer.
Especially with Black Edition, people come for the music and want to have a great party, you see from the 1st minute until the last it's all about the music and the amazing party it's becoming during the night ofcourse, this is all my opininon.
I've been to all Black Editions and last year for the first time to White, I've been also to 2000 and 2001 editions and that was just 1 edition.
And what I remembered of last year @ White is that people go crazy when they announce the DJ but that's it.
It's not about the music.
People dress in a way if they go to a model contest or something.
I visit White because of the lineup: GREAT MUSIC.
The year before I wanted to go, but to pay 60 euro's for only Paul Van Dyk and Sander Kleinenberg, no way!!!
The style of Rob Gee and Slipknot was an experiment that failed.
Hardcore and Metal is not the style for Black Edition.
Keep it with Hardstyle/HardTrance/Techno.
Last week before White, Duncan said at the press conference that the White concept is sold to more than 40 countries: USA, Australia, South Africa, Ukrain, China, Japan and many more countries.
Good for him, because with that money he can get a great line up for White and Black next year if there will be a next year. |
