Came in at about 11, and from 11 to 12 I was in Guv cause I liked what Mark Oliver was playing more than I liked what Barato was playing. HOWEVER, at the end of his set, Barato dropped a TUNE AND A HALF: Moby - Go. You can NEVER go wrong with Moby.
Markus Markus Markus. Fouth time seeing him, and it happened to be the fourth time he completely knocked my socks off. I vote him as THE MOST CONSISTENT DJ EVER. In fact, if he continues to spin with this consistency, he'll dethrone the Dutch powerhouses in no time. Schulz = TRUE TRANCE. Absolutely phenomenal set. From what I remember and from reading this thread, these are the tunes that he dropped:
- Dogzilla - Without You (Great to hear, but it's time to retire this tune, Markus)
- Karen Overton - Your Loving Arms (Markus Schulz & Elevation remix) (also due for retirement)
- Above & Beyond - Air for Life (feat. Andy Moor) (ditto)
- Super 8 vs. DJ Tab - Helsinki Scorchin' (ditto)
- Vinyl Session - Session 6 CHOOOONNNN
- 4 Strings - Take Me Away (Purple Haze Remix)
- Rui Da Silva - Touch Me (feat. Cassandra) (some remix) (I actually ADORE the orginal mix, so I was wishing Markus played that one, but he didn't)
- Alex M.O.R.P.H. vs Rank 1 - Life Less Ordinary
- Tocadisco - Music Loud
Infected Mushroom were exactly what I expected, since their performance was almost identical to last year's. Also, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD STOP CALLING INFECTED MUSHROOM PSY TRANCE! Cause they ain't. Psy Trance is stuff like MWNN, j00f, Astrix, Oakie before 2000, etc etc. Psy Trance is complex and flowing. What Infected Mushroom plays is more like some retarded Techno. I tried, but I just couldn't get that much into their set. A couple of songs were good. Too many of their songs sounded just like the one right before it.
Rank 1 actually surprised me. The last time he was here, I wasn't impressed by his set, but this time around it was definitely different. Awesome that he opened with Age Of Love, although I would have preferred another mix of it as I was dying to sing "COME ON, DANCE WITH ME, MOVE YOUR BODY, YOU LOVE THIS BEAT". But meh, I'll take what I can get. The beginning of his set was nice. I think we left around 5am.
Overall, had a really good time, and I'm glad I made the last-minute decision to come out. Although, I could have left right after Markus was done and not have missed anything significant.
