The opener played some northern Exposure tracks

I agree with John on this one. It took a very long time for Sasha to come on, leaving us with 4 hours of some really boring minimal tech. (Sorry to those who were spinning but you were opening for Sasha and not James Holden} But Sasha did deliver with the the exception of his first hour. The rest of the night was a total deep dark underground journey with about zero tracks I can put a name too. I didn't hear any of this new tracks get played and that's not a bad thing.
The venue was awesome. The sound was decent, the lighting sucked, they turned on a surprise laser at about 5am (why wait all night, idk?). It never felt too crowded. |

| Cheers for the video. The massive CD wallet belies the "vinyl only" story I saw on twitter. |

Imo, it was just getting started at five and the lighting after was sick. Three's set was better than Sasha's first hour and yes, it was a dark, dark set. Sasha delivered though and he set was perfect for the venue. I understand why some people didn't get it because they aren't used to it dark and dirty but that was perfect for us. I don't remember who was on at 9 but seriously, crazy good. If I wasn't awake the whole day before and he didn't work from 6am on Friday, we would have closed it out. Blkmarket delivered and this was the best party in a long time and it is going to be hard to top it. |

| Great set by Sasha. He got into a groove with great programming and as always great mixing. I don't recall seeing vinyl, but saw CD's and him on his Mac to the side. Nice venue and great crowd. Lots of cool people at the show. |

| Christina saw a Mac, but wasn't sure who was using it...I wasn't really paying attention. Thought the music was good, but not amazing (seen Sasha far better). |

The surprise lasers were really cool :D
Great venue |

I just woke up... what a f*cking party!
I got there very early (1 am) thinking it was going to be a clusterf*ck. As we go by the venue, the cops were all along the block (this is what posting the address on a public forum does).
Walked right in and went through the line pretty fast, there were a lot of people already there. T+F played first, Sasha got on for a bit and it pissed me off how everyone was just standing staring at him! I never really understood this, if you go to a party, dance, that's why you're there after all. I don't really remember much after this point, I think Three got on after an hour and went nuts and then Sasha came back on? Then I remember seeing Sasha and Three playing together for a while. People started leaving like at around 5 and then's when it got really good, the music was ridiculous until I left @ 10 am, Chris was still playing and there were still a lot of people dancing their asses off.
Party of the Year! Erica: dumbass maneuver to leave so early, at least you should've come back, it cleared out an hour after you left and the ventilation system kicked in, it wasn't as smoky after that. Whoever missed this party should regret it, it was a really treat to hear Sasha play in this setting, I hope it happens again. I know a lot of people are going to talk about this one for a while and went down on the books as the best night of the year.
Thank you Taimur, Fahad and your whole team, I know you guys were very stressed out about putting this together, but you really came through, from the venue to the sound to the lights and lasers, you managed to blow me away. Keep it coming, I expect a great party next week with Konrad Black :crazy: |
