Personally, I think it's stinks! :(
Where are the trance headliners??? Adam Sheridan?? Preach??
What happened to the days of Paul Oakenfold, Johan Gielen, JOOF, Cor Fijnemann, Lost Witness, Pulser, Lange, Orkidea, Nostrum, Jon the Dentist etc etc...
I'm really really dissappointed with the trance line-up and for the first time in 7 years I will NOT be going. MSTRKRFT, WEMF headliner?? *shakes head*. All due respect, the guys are really good... but nowhere close to the class of DJ's WEMF used to bring. I still hope everyone will have fun (without a doubt I'm still sure) :tongue3
I will however say that the D n'B line-up looks :eyespop: :eyes: :eyespop: :crazy: :eyes: :eyespop: :eyes: :crazy: :eyespop: :crazy: :happy2: :eyes: :happy2: :crazy: :eyespop: |
maybe ur thinking too close minded they probably wanted to focus this year's 4/4 stage with house and techno mostly? wtf is wrong with that? nothing! its still a good lineup and when they brought oakenfold in 2000 he didnt even play his set hence why they dont bother booking big name dj's like tiesto, avb, etc |

although i agree the Trance line up is lacking, overall the line-up this year looks pretty good imo.
better than the past few I remember at least. |

That's not why they don't book big dj's at all dude! Just because Oakie didn't play his set?? That's the most ridculous thing ever. It's the fact that they really want to bring as many dj's to this as possible, so they don't have the budget to bring people like Tiesto, avb, pvd, etc... and I'm not complaining that they don't bring those big names.. it's the fact that there are barely any trance names at all!!!
ps. Actually, Oakie did play in '00, but later cause his flight was delayed.;) |

i just wondered...
for a WORLD electronic music festival... i would expect the line up to be similar to that of Global Gathering or Dancevalley or WMC ..u get the point...
the festival sure does not live up to its name... |

We are not in the EU or the UK or even the USA. If you have looked back on previous years of this party, there has never been any sort of lineup like you would get at any of the events you listed.
I think it is a great lineup and I think that it is good to have some variety.

It's really strange not seeing any of the "Guv" dj's on a flyer, and I can't help but think adding a someone like a "Carlo Lio" to the bill could have cemented toronto's reg clubbing crowd. (rather than 95% raver clientele)

I originally thought the same thing Jon but come to think of it I doubt the glam clubbers you see in Chinamon's pictures would be caught dead at a 3 day event with the "rustic" appeal of WEMF.
Bottom line is that there are threads like this complaining every year... there were threads complaining about Oakenfold being booked in 2000 and subsequently complaining about his set which was actually really good. All people do is bitch either way.
Truth is, you go to WEMF to have a good time with friends and half the time you don't know who is playing anyways. One year somebody came up to me after my set and asked if I was J00F, half the people don't have a clue either way. It's about the experience as much as it is the lineup... most of the djs suggested in this thread are 60 and haven't done much in the last 5 years. |
