You are kidding right? The way a schedule is built, and how the Dj plays before you as EVERYTHING to do with your performance.
If the DJ before you plays at his hardest, tribal, 130 bpm and you play minimal tech at 125... and the guy after you plays hard trance at 135... there's absolutely no room to make any sort of build up in your set, you just start with the fastest hardest stuff you have, which results into a mindless night of pounding beats with no story. Or you start from scratch and everybody thinks you are boring.
This is why Lawler is at his best on long 6 hrs set. He just works, and works his way with patience. Releasing that beast 3-4 hrs into the set. |
i honnestly don't see it this way, i'm not a dj either.
If I'm booked for 2 hours to do my thing, well I'll do my best. You guys are professional right?
Also, thats me, but I have a hard time thinking about what was played in the first hour of a 5 hour set when we're at hour number 4. I have absolutely no memory for these things, stretching to more than say 15 minutes, i would believe that I'm not the only one this world that has my condition, if we can call it that :p |

so true...lawler did the right thing and just started from scratch that night, playing what we was there to do...and I found alot of ppl were saying he was "too slow"...or boring....
guess like Louis said too, theres no sense in slapping big guns together and expecting to please everyone, esp at events like Resolution and BEB, where most of the clientle don't even know whats going on, except *bump bump bump fast, or *bump bump bump slow |

1.Wont get into this here... but bookings are kinda too often in the wrong venue... at a wrong time and not well promoted
2.I prefer less internationnal but at the right place and right time... than bringing all the big guns... make em play with other internationnals without any musical structure and book em 3 times a year
3.By the way... im very happy lawler plays at tribe... last 3 times i saw him... he in killed it |
1. wrong venue, wrong time, not well promoted...couldn't agree with you more on that. too many parties like that in MTL...
2. less international is always good...it's fresh! as much as i adore my old-school prog pioneers, and i'll ALWAYS be ecstatic whenever they're booked, freshness is definitely something this city lacks.
3. lawler kills it everytime ;) i think i've seen him over 7 or 8 times now...never once disappointed. |

I think indeed putting Lawler between Vibe and a hard-trance act was a mistake.
Vibe was playing very hard, 2004, non-stop drums, kind of fast too.
Lawler never plays over 125-126 maybe 127. He can be totally amazing, I witnessed the magic live 3 times. But you can't judge what he does with the Resolution performance. He didn't have a proper transition. He was like a fish out of the water.

Ya that was kinda weird, it was like going crazy up-beat driving stuff, to slow-moving progressive. i know one of the first couple of songs he played was his track Violet, and if you compare that to what the DJ before was playing, wow it was like a total 180.
Don't get me wrong tho, I ing loved his set to death even if he didn't play at the right time or with the right kinda DJ's before and after him. |

i honestly cant believe im going to say this, but he was good in seoul and his manager owes me a drink.
he was actually more tribal tech (see a la mode en ce moment) than i thought he would be. |
