Indeed I did.
It was more just an impromtu collection of people dancing than anything as there was no collaboration on who was listsening to what. Which made it more interesting in the end as on every car (well, the 1 I was in & the 2 others I could see into) everyone was clearly enjoying and dancing to different styles of music.
But it got shut down on the Southbound return at Dundas b/c as usual the TTC workers are cunts. Clearly there was no security issue as you could hear the the other passengers on the cars applaud as we exited, both when we returned Southbound & when we left at Dundas.

There was a techno one last summer in Toronto actually, I forget where it was exactly though.

I did experience one as part of Global Gathering in 2006.
It was very interesting and a nice alternative which let the party go later than it normally would have.
Everyone was listening to the same music and I do believe Max Graham was the DJ (someone can correct me if I am wrong... lol).
The volume on the headphones had a maximum volume. You had to remove them to have conversations..
It was a neat experience...

Even though this is an interview, there are clips from the party:
quote:
Filmed in Toronto, this clip takes a look at the life and work of DJ/producers and label owners – Mike Shannon (Cynosure Recordings) and Noah Pred (Thoughtless Music). Two top Canadian exports and cutting-edge exponents of techno.
First up, Canadian-born, Berlin-based Mike Shannon talks about his label, Cynosure, partnering with his friend Jeff Milligan on the Revolver imprint, his recent album, Memory Tree, released on Plus 8 Records, the Canadian scene, and relocating to Europe. Mike is also filmed performing at a techno party hosted by Tempo in Toronto.
Next, we catch up with the deep and meaningful Noah Pred, head honcho of Thoughtless Music, and record him in the mix at a local Head Sync underground gathering – where clubbers brought their own headphones to plug into receivers/Pred’s sounds. In this footage Noah discusses his label, digital DJing, and the evolving future of the international music industry in a more democratic digital age.

where does everyone plug in?
and if you plug in somewhere, you're bound by a cord, which to me, is rediculous.
And if you're on wireless, doesn't the sound quality suffer?
And those headphone speakers, the sound quality already suffers, unless they're handing out Studio-quality headphones at the door.
Methinks this is garbage
