Here is my personnal review of the night:
Aria is a great place, i love it, the place is nice and the staff is doing a great job.
the perfecto visualization where great, but repetitive.
Oakenfold started at 2:15, I think he began to play a little too early, because the crowd wasnt 'hot' enought...at first i was desoriented, because i though he would start with something like.. animal - lostit..lol
it is fun, because i have absolutly no idea what he played for the first 40 minutes, but the tracks were good. anyway, the mixing skills of oakenfold are sometimes great, and i dont think his set was pre-recorded.. some mix where so good that it was nearly impossible to know where he crossfaded it. unfortunatly, he had 3 or 4(maybe more) bad mix, i mean bad. but since its oakay, i guess its ...
(im so funny)
i was talking with someone about the 'show' he was giving, and i must say he gave us hell of a show, pointing everywhere, arms in the air like if he was god. furious looking (and yelling) at the turntables when his mix where bad (damn turntables, its their fault). That's the part i dont really like from oakenfold.. he is a legend, he is good, but i dont like the 'rock-star' -look im doing a show- oakie..
i think i noticed some TA behind him (smiling at a good track or mix, crying desperatly on bad mix, focused on the music.) but havent talk to you, because of my first failure trying to meet some of you guys <> it was nice meeting with tranceaddicts from halifax !
The place.when you have to schedule your visit to the bathroom, it is full. It definitly was worst than at the carnaval de l'amour.
for the tracklist here's what im sure (no order):
Flash - The day after (one of my fav tune. i think i cried.)
Arrakis - aira force (main mix)
Arrakis - aira force (lemon 8 remix)
Rendez-vous - tilt (the one from tranceport, dont know the remix, i think he played 2 differents versions like he did with arrakis-aira force)
er.. i cant remember more... maybe should i write my post at 8:45 sunday morning .. ?

Dizaam!! You were wearing mirrored-lensed aviators, right? I came right up to you and asked you if you were fastmp3, cuz I recognized your pic from your website. You looked right at me and shook your head. Maybe you didn't have a clue what I was saying? :conf:
Anyway... I'm tall, and I was wearing a pale blue T-shirt with sunglasses and spikey hair. |
