menno was good, all class.
sander van doorn was a bit average, nothing mindblowing.
john o'callaghan had a nice blend of uplifting and tech trance going on but it didn't seem to flow that well.
all round, top night :D |

caught last half hour of strangis, there was a few good tracks in there to get things going :D (and air guitaring! .. or was that obir?)
obir nice n smooth n super melodic! (he sure kept away from the vocal trance if i remember correctly..) i was expecting a few bigger tracks from him but still it was really good!
menno tore the place up from get go. zomfg. set of the night. i was expecting decency, he delivered greatness!
sander's started off to what woulda fit into his fmf set 2 years back, great stuff.. however 15 mins later electro van dorn came and ruined the night :( AS EXPECTED. talk about boring. atleast a bit of the crowd left, much easier to get around!
didnt like how joc started, he basically continued from svd, then started sea sawing into trance (although im a huge fan of underworld - cowgirl, loved that!), took him long enough to get there but he did eventually but i left after the first hour, atleast did get to hear some good stuff, even if some of it was heard earlier!
12 hours of funzo was more than enough for me! (i woulda left after svd went O_o but ..yes... )
overall the immense awesomeness is best summed up by the following...

John O Bir - awesome.
Menno de Jong - ing ; same pounding beat and crap melodies for two hours.
Gareth Emery - started HORRIBLY, playing prog-trance and progressive electro-house, ala deadmau5, which caused us to leave. Apparently improved a lot later on, playing "Lethal Industry".
Sander van Doorn - ing . Since when is 138 BPM tech-house "trance"?
John O'Callaghan - started very shaky. First track was awesome but then more SvD style rubbish ensued. Last hour was fully mind-blowing, and completely vindicated spending $95 on enduring the previous four hours worth of bull.
DJ Eco - "Light At The End (Lost World Remix - Martin Roth edit)", O'Callaghan and Kearney - "Exactly" (picked this a full minute before he dropped it) and Paul van Dyk - "For An Angel" were all awesome.
Biggest disappointment for me wasn't the music; it was the crowd. They seemed positively disinterested for 90% of the night, especially during O'Callaghan's set. The lack of atmosphere was very off-putting considering some of the awesome events I've experienced where the first 20 rows are virtual mosh-pits. What the happened? |

lol you didn't like menno? i suppose each to their own :)
i jumped in the side room for a bit when emery was on and ya, prog, boring and left. although i thought wow atleast this time he's not playing electro! (but sounds like it happend eventually..his set at 5am years ago pwnd, then that boxing day set the other year was the start of the sellout :( )
and lol svd doesn't do trance anymore DUH!
as for the crowd and joc.. i think everyone was drained by then- tiredness and got bored out of their mind after svd and how joc continued svd for a while. they REALLY should have had joc on earlier, put svd on last (only trance'ies know the rest of the lineup while every moron and their dog knows SVD) and cos he's overhyped ridicuously, way more would've stayed only to be dissapointed. and then everyone would've left happy with joc instead of whatever the hell that was supposed to be O_o |

I thought Menno, SvD and JOC were all brilliant.
Sure SvD had that weak 20-30 mins or so in the middle, but the rest of his set was more or less spot on I thought. If you don't expect that style from SvD you've really got your head up your arse, that set was SvD in a nutshell, and I loved it.
Menno was cool, lots of great tracks and some really good trance without playing fluffy Armin .
JOC played exactly what i thought he would, started off with a few of the more melodic things before ramping it up, thought he was great. Trance the way I like it. Didn't have too many issues with flow, trust me I've seen sets which were much much much worse than that, if you thought it had bad flow (and I don't think it did anyway) you must have been blessed in your clubbing life.
I had an awesome night. The floor was too much crush for me but we were only down there for Menno, the rest of the time in ths stands was pretty good.
The best performers were those mirror-suit dancers. That was cool. I bet Josh (Sydney variety) is pissed he didn't patent it.:toothless
Pretty much fell asleep the moment i sat down on the plane and woke up on final approach into Adelaide. Just trying to keep myself awake until this evening now. |
