Carl Cox was decent but surprised to hear a good chunk of techno from him.

that's the carl I know.....the true king of techno....what he did at TiL last year was disgraceful but he made up for it big time.
I can't believe how many people asked me who was on the decks when Carl was on.....probably that stupid moment of the night was this.
Random Dude: Who's spinning
Me: Carl Cox.
Random Dude: No, that can't be carl cox
Me: No, that is definately Carl Cox
Random Dude: But the guy spinning is black
Me: yeah carl cox is black.
Random Dude: Is he from Africa?
at that point I just walked away. |

Had a REALLY good time last night. I haven't been to Guv in a while, and it still feels like home to me.
First off, what is with the Loblaws parking lot charging $20 to park now? Back when everyone was parking at LCBO, it was like $10. And now they ticket in LCBO and suddenly their rates double. HMMMMMMM. Whatever, I parked for free in a parking lot just down the street.
After getting inside, chilled in KH for a while, and listened to Ferry. Overall, Ferry didn't impress me (although he never really did in the past either). Wasn't able to get into the Trance at all this night. There were definitely some good moments, and some good tracks dropped, but I felt like there was too much downtime between the tracks. He was letting the tracks play out too long, which is where he would lose my interest. I just can't enjoy dancing to the (kick-highhat-kick-highhat) for very long. But I guess he was just stretching it out cause he was there for 8 hours. Probably a 6/10 for me.
Anyway, after Ferry it was time for Carl Cox. Mainroom was, of course, retardedly packed anywhere close to the DJ booth, so I had to settle being by the back speakers. Sound there was great, there was some space, it was nice and cool, and Cox was banging it out. Although I don't remember anything from the Guv9yr, I think I liked that set more than this one. I liked Cox when he would throw down those bass-heavy Techno tunes, but then he'd slow it down with like Housey type of stuff and totally lose me. Overall, still had an awesome time with him though. 8/10 Oh, and haha, Guv was like going crazy with those cannons! It wasn't even that hot, but they were blasting that A LOT. Not that I minded though. Also, I think I noticed that they use the lasers less than they used to.
Saw Scumfrog in the Orange Room. One word: MENTAL. I originally only wanted to stay for like 30 minutes, but the man would just not let down with the tunage he was dropping. Awesome stuff from him. I can't decide if i enjoyed myself more with Carl or Scumfrog. Although I think Scumfrog takes the cake because he was much more consistently BANGING. He got sloppy with a couple of the mixes though, which kinda surprised me to hear, really. I don't know why, but I didn't really like the vibe in Orange Room. I think he would have been better in The Drink.
Listened to a nice chunk of Tommie Sunshine as well. He would play really eclectic, but good tunes. Can't even say if it was House or Breaks or what it was, but it was nice and edgy and hard-hitting. His mixing was a little... creative though. Sometimes I remember thinking, "WTF is this guy doing?", but then he'd finish the mix, drop the bass, and it would be good times again. Surprisingly, The Drink was really ing empty by that time.
And on that note, THANK GOD for Circa. This was one of the rare times where the Guv complex wasn't packed to the (mainroom being the exception as it was packed in there still), and it was such a pleasure to be able to have the space to move. KH was PERFECT.
Didn't really get to hang out with you guys at all during the night (except Barbina, who it seems I saw everywhere :p). I guess you were all front and centre, and it was a little too crowded there for me. Although I was surprised to find that no TAs were in the other rooms - everyone seemed to either be in mainroom, or KH. |
