Infact "walking away" was probably his weakest track that honestly felt like he just threw it in there cuz he sorta had to at the end. great set :)
completely agreed with these two points
steve angello was the highlight of the night. I don't think I left the room once when he was on. This was the first all access party in quite some time where I spent virtually no time checking out the locals.. which was fine because I saw most of them at CZ later anyways :)
GREAT time at Guv!!! Kudos for opening D'Luxe lounge once again! My favourite way to enjoy the main room!

We arrived just after 11 there was a bit of a line up but it went really fast. Guv was pretty empty and Tocadisco was up. I wasnt a huge fan of the first bit of his set (but Im sure he wasnt expecting to be be opening DJ, wtf happened to MO??)
Headed to Orange Room for a a little bit and one of the YM boys had the room slamming already.
Curiousity got the best of me and I decided to check out KH. It must have been Perry Ferrell. Holy what a depressing place. Everyone was just standing there arms crossed looking like they were thinking about suicide. I ran out as fast as I could.
The tent from the KH to Guv was a STUPID idea... it was full of smokers and walking through burnt my eyes and lungs.
By now the guv was filling up quickly and Toca was picking it up. For the most part I was really impressed with what I heard. He was really good at bringing up the crowds energy. The whole room was a crazy party vibe. But I do really HATE that new Tiga track 'shoes'
I really liked Kascades set. First time seeing him. Everyone around me was having a great time. Lots of great tracks playing.
I for one liked Sharams little western intro. Maybe because I am such a 'noob' and it was my first time seeing something like this when a DJ comes to the decks. It got me excited... although I was a little WTF for a minute. I like the visuals for his set. I had very low expectations for him but overall his set was pretty good.
The sad part of the night... I went to Decadence pretty much for Crookers. But never was able to meet up with my friends in the KH. Tried to go find them but the place was so ing weird. Some dude was trying to follow me around showing me his acid, people were just sitting on the floor sketching out, people were just smashing into me... I hated it.
Angello was OKAY. Pretty predictable. The first half was good... then I got bored FAST. He kept stopping the music for a couple seconds every once and while (not sure what that is called) and it REALLY annoyed me. I left just after 6:30
OTHER THOUGHTS:
I love d'luxe... I should have spent more time there
We found the perfect spot to dance, we always had just the right amount of room and sound was pretty good
Orange room's sound was ED UP... ouch my ears
Carlo Lio is ing sick
Most glow sticks I have ever scene at a house event
People sleeping on the roof of the patio (i wish I had actually seen this)
Running into Shay <3
This night was truly special because of the good friends, both new and old. Because of this alone it is one of my fav. parties. Thanks guys <3

Decadence was the most intense night since LOL. I felt so fuken comfortable with the crowd, i didnt see ANYONE spastiking out, and everyone was really cool and friendly. Didnt see any fights or overly drunk people.
A crowd determines the outcome of a night. House Music nights are always great.
Dj's-
Tocadisco- Just got in as he was hailing the crowd in his thick german accent. Thought he was done at that point, only to here him continue..i still left for KH in time to hear Bloody Beetroots.
BBR- Awesome mixes first time i heard them, crowd atmosphere was climaxing. Saw Jesse and Aoki chilling in the back rocking out to their beets (haha)
MSTRKFT- Creat compostition as usual. i think they play at a more make it up as you go along style rather then a previewed set. Everyone's hands were in the air loving it, really bringing it to a local level in such a large venue.
CROOKERS-Ok at best. all their songs seem to us the same electronic sound added to the backround.
Steve Aoki- Very interesting, first time actually hearing him play his own sets. Last time someone else was playing while he was rocking out with the crowd. He started playing rock and it change my mood. I love the classics, but i didn't come out to hear rock.
CARLO LIO- this guy wowed me, it was just amazing listening to this guy. I did not want to leave the room, but a group of my friends departed and i did not want to dance alone. Went back to GUv in time to see steve angello killing the house.
STEVE Angello- wow. thats it. i stayed till the very end and was still jamming to his awesome beats. Acid lounge was still well crowded and pumping. i heard this guy with ingrosso but i thought this time he was better (his choices of tracks seem to side with me).
All in all it was a prime night at guv right? Contact was dull for me, did not enjoy much of it. As my love for trance fades and my love for house and tech-house grows, i learn to appreciate these dj's a lot better. I can honestly not wait till skybar opens as well. Probably the only place in toronto where you can merge the glamour of the city, the beauty of the sunrise, and the pleasure of the music all at once....

I'll add that I really liked the decorations in Kool Haus. They were simple but pleasing. I loved how some got ripped down and were being flung around by people

Its a bootleg that Funkagenda made before he spun his set for Toolroom Knights at Space for WMC09. Doubt there are many copies floating around.

This was the only reason i came to decadance and it was SO 10000% worth it. His set was everything i was expecting to hear i just wish it was long and not at 11 pm. Highlights for me were when he dropped Shake it Down and Riverside OMG INSANITY!
After Toca was done I made my way to the Orange room where Joee was playing and he was having a total kick ass set and the room was going off.
Wondered around the KH for a bit and there is nothing i can say to really describe it other then that it was like nothing ive really seen before; people crowd surfing, running around on the stage, full on insanity. The music wasnt really doing it for me in there but the vibe was re ing diculous!
The mainroom was stupidly packed and made me wanna kill people so i headed to the drink next where M&S were on. I dont really remember much of their set but i know i danced my butt off so it must have been good.
When they were done I caught a bit of Deko-ze's set, HOLY is all i can say.....no one plays closing sets like this guy! AND on the way out caugh some of Carlo's set in the Orange room..... he is SOOOOO talented, can not wait to see him in the KH 2nite.
PS Sharam sucks and bored the crap outta me just like he does every time he is here, i wish he would stop getting booked here as i would prefer to watch paint dry then listen to him again.
Well, since i was with u most of the night, your review is pretty much my review. I'm SO GLAD we went early for Tocadisco, he was GREAT. Def. the best set of the night for me. I am still pissed about him opening, he deserved to play for a PACKED ROOM...not an empty one (def. didn't help that the main room opened LATE), but what can u do. I had little interest in seeing Kaskade in Guv, he's NOT a Guv DJ in my eyes. I hope to catch him on another boat cruise this summer though....where he's better suited :) Joee Cons in the Orange Room def. delivered. I also had no interest in Angello or Sharam, and opted for M&S in the drink instead. I was super excited to see them back in there, where they never disappoint me...and didn't. The locals def. played a big part in making Decadence what it was.
I had an amazing time at this event. Saw tons of friends, danced my ass off even though i couldn't tell u a single track that was played. It was messy, it was worth it, it was another incredible guv night. Glad I ignored the so-so line-up and went :)
