I met up with Jeff almost as soon as I got in line, and then was lucky enough to meet up with a bunch of you. Though Im not andrea .. it was nice to be recognized ;)
The set up was insaneeeee... i loved the forum, but the line outside was freezingggg and I thought I was going to die omg. Digweed owned.. Sasha was pretty damn good too. That bell song.. that he played at the guv on halloween ... is still my favorite
ps. jeff does dance.. a lot! loll
so music wise..
we didnt catch anton --sadly :(
what i heard of spooky was pretty damn good
sasha = 8/10
digweed 10/10
sander 7/10
sanders set was alright, at the end i was getting tired and bored so i went to sit down with one of my friends since the other boys wern't ready to leave yet. He dropped some really random tracks.. and his encore? what was that?
oh well.. i went to see digweed .. and i wasnt dissapoined at all. |
It was awesome to finally get to "really" party with you :D
I had a blast with you and your NY crew! |

That was easily one of the best party experiences I've had in MTL! This was both the thoughts from myself and the crew I went down with (most of whom who have partied longer than I) -- props to Tribe all around for putting this event together.
From the crowd's vibe, the sound, to the lights, to the randomness of the escalator/elevator this party had it all -- the booze wasn't so much of a big deal but I can understand how having waited outside so long may have sobered up the pre drinkers. Good thing we showed up late ;)
Hopefully there will be another party with a similar setup in the Pepsi forum -- for all those ppl who missed this one this time around... |

| I dont know why ppl are saying this set had no flow, this set was insane and it had more flow then you think. They played the crowd perfectly and really took the mind fak traks to another level. I would have never thought Dubfire's Spastik would mix in that set but when Sasha dropped it then mixed Steve Lawlers Violet in woooowww u can truly see the experience of these dj's. Tribe props to the sound system it truly was amaizing. |

I agree with what most people already mentioned, this was definitely one of the best parties i've been to in mtl (Up there with sundance and cream).
My frends and I were a little apprehensive of the setup at first (dancefloor seemed small) but was very impressed in the end overall. Loved the escalators like everyone else surely did. Lights were insane, almost too intense at times. Sound was very good but a touch too loud. Good crowd in general.
S&D delivered! I liked Sasha a bit more than Diggers, but enjoyed both sets tremendously. I disagree with the lack of flow/direction comment. They are 2 different djs with different styles afterall. If they played exactly the same...what would be the point? I am happy that i can say that I saw them play together and at a high point after the great year they both had.
As for Sander K... I thought he a little disappointing. Started off solid but then became too repetitive and, quite frankly, too 'noisy'. It seems that he has lost his magic touch from a few years back.
I was surprisingly impressed with Spooky. I would like to know the track or two they played before SnD came on.
Overall, it was a great time with great music and great people. Can't ask for anymore than that.
PS. thank god we parked underground....avoided lineup and coatcheck.
PPS. Uneek: first ID is Kaliber - 15.1, and I think Digweed played Kaliber 15.2 after that as well. Popof - My Toyz was also played. Dont think gridlock, silverlake, or coma were played either.
PPPS. Highlight of the night: While taking a piss I saw Digweed waiting for a stall with a security man in the bathrooms near the elevator lol :haha:! Talk about VIP treatment hehe. |

Great video. Bit long though.
here's my review
Long wait outside and at coatcheck that was quickly forgotten.
Not easy with such a venue to deal with logistics, it is a mall after all!!! lol
Finally get to the dance floor, the set-up blew me away. Very impressive. A lot of money and effort put into the lighting&sound, some new technology as well for sure. I started the night 10 feet away from the Dj booth but I had to move back as it was getting too crowded and the sound was really high.
Musically I was more than satisfied. Exactly what I was hoping for, actually even better that I was expecting. Last time I had such a feeling was at Sona or at a 514 event many years ago.
Not only Sasha & Digweed delivered a set of an extremely good quality (one of the best I've ever heard), but the vibe, the class and quality of the crowd, people dancing as opposed to rubbing each other, the crowd seemed older than most of the mass events I had been to.
I had not heard a proggy set since Lawler at Sundance. S&D played proggy, dark, techno, and hard on several occasions which is great!
The slow proggression of the beat, getting heavier and heavier, driving you insane, that's exactly what I needed, some of my househead friends told me they felt inconfortable on a few occasions, lol, I personally loved it.
To me the King is Digweed..he's always been. I like his minimal tech style, influences from Dubfire, Holden, some insane tracks like Popof - My toys. Sasha was unreal as well. He really kicked ass from the beginning, he played hard, trancy, proggy, techno, it was perfect! The two of them together give an explosive result! I said on several occasions ''techno is back, techno is back!!'' during the night. There's no doubt in my mind that we're gonna hear more and more tech releases this year! that's awesome!
After a crazy final on Supermayer - Two of us, Sander K kept the banging beats on coming, some great tech house tracks. Unfortunately, he started playing more commercial after 1.5h or so and everybody lost their hard ons...
Overall definitely the best event of the year for me and one of my top event in 10 years of partying. Extremely glad to have been associated as a promoter for such a great quality event, I would do it again tomorrow morning. |
