Best party since getting to Miami for me! Sander just killed it, the energy was sensational! I just love, love, love those Sander beats, Dank u wel Sander!
Paul started it out melodic and slow for a change of pace, but then delivered one of the best sets I've ever heard! He was smilng, dancing all over the place and then Giusseppe and Armin show up. I bet this was running through Armin's mind: "Man, I must be at this party next year!". I went completely crazy over the synth beats in one song that Paul played, had the lyrics "better, faster" - that was a wicked track! Danke, Paul!
Guiseppe spun until 6:30am, so many great tracks. I went up to the terrace, but the music was much better downstairs that I was back within minutes! Grazie, Giuseppe!
Space is one monster of a nightclub, I will def come back again. Only complaint is that party was advertised to open at 10, but doors didn't open until 11:15, so long ass wait even getting there at 10:15. Music was still going strong at 6:30 in all rooms, but downstairs switched to House. Hundreds of people waiting to get in after 6:30 when I left with my friends, insane! :)
Sasha @ Shelborne for me tonight for a change of pace, anyone else going? |

Great party. All 3 DJs in the mainroom played good.
SVD's 2 hour set was a 10 out of 10, and the best IMO. He could have played all night & I would have been happy. Perfect flow, energy and mix of tech-house, tech-trance and high-energy trance. To me he is one of the best DJs to see live @ a club, bar none. He is a master of building up & destroying a room & needs to headline a party next WMC.
PVD played good for 3 hours and was an 8 out of 10 IMO. The 1st 2 hours or so were amazing, great start building it up & then dropping banger after banger, all high energy stuff. The last hour was not as good as he let up on the energy a bit, dropped some melodic fluffy stuff and vocals to make the girls happy. And yes as mentioned that "Dark Beat" remix that he has been playing for years needs to go already, along with that crappy "Im in Miami Bitch" garbage track. Still was waaaayyy better than last year's fiasco of a set.
Ottaviani came on around 5 a.m., I stayed till about 6:20 & have no idea how much longer he played. What i heard was very impressive and a 9 out of 10 IMO. By his second track he had the energy levels full tilt & delivered all high energy tracks at super high BPMs. Most surprising was how hard the breakdowns were as i did not expect that from GO, and he even layered in a few breakbeats over the trance he was dropping. |

Best set if the night was Sanders, too sad it was short.
PVD set wasn't bad, but it just isn't for me anymore. Great opening tracks then long melodies, then vocals, then i am in Miami. His sets are to predictable in energy and really no difference every time he comes. Like I said it wasnt bad, but isnt for me anymore.
To me another set that was super impressive was Beyer upstairs, holy did he bring it hard!!!!
Left at 730am got to work at 845 left work at 2pm, super tiiirrreeed LOL! |

Congratulation! |
how was his set? thought it kinda fishy that he won, considering he has a show on sirius that showcases vandit tracks. he also has another radio show that showcases (mostly) trancd djs, and pvd has been on the show. apparantly, over a 1000 mixes where submitted, and pvd's team had 4 days to listen to them (yeah right); mixed in key had a mix competition a little while ago and the mixes where only 15min (30 min for the pvd comp) and it took them weeks to sort throught them. i think that pvd (or whoever he hired) clicked on kaenows website and where impressed. he has tons of mixes up, all from sirius, and not to mention, prob the most important, he most likely draws a crowd in miami (this of course is the most important thing, that being how many peeps you can bring to the party.)
btw, i know kaenow is a TA, so maybe you could write a bit about the experience you have had entering this mix contest, winning, and then playing the party? what time did you spin? did you really play hard progressive trance? in nyc pvd's opener plays techno/tech house. |

| My god! my favorite night of WMC. All the djs played top notch. It was insane. Sander's first 30 minutes or so put me to sleep but then he destroyed the place like nothing I have ever seen. After that 30-40 minute mark he brought it track after track - except for the Ferry Corsten remix he made which i am not a fan of at all. PVD came on next. He started killer and then 40 minutes into the set or so played three or so hiphop like tracks and a daft punk mix and a few other tracks I felt was total crap but for some reason people sang to them around me. I had no idea what they were but hated them. After that dip for 20 minutes he brought it back up again. He had an epic set in my opinion. I mean I have seen him many times before and his sets dont change much but I never saw him at Space and this was madness. Was worried but was not dissapointed at the slightest. Then Ottaviani came on - people were leaving to line up for the terrace but i stayed till the end of his set. I am a hardcore fan of live sets. Playing along with a keyboard adds so much to it. I really enjoyed his set. Was hard and yet had him playing his melodies over it. Space pulled some BS by waiting for over 90 minutes to let people in. I had a before 12 ticket and waited in line at 10:20 or so. Wonder if they screwed people over with the before 12 ticket because of that crap. Plus they let people in so slowly that it honestly could have filled up by 12:30 if they didnt play that line game crap. Overall, so so pleased i went to this. Not sure how the nocturnal one went but this was epic. I give sander an 8.5/10, pvd a 9/10 and GO 10/10. Looking forward to the video recording to be posted. |

Whether warranted or not, any trance party that goes up against PVD @ Space is fighting an uphill battle in terms of turnout. Most people do not even try to compete, but this year it was hard not to being that PVD was there Friday & Saturday |

| haha never heard of dark beat then youtubed it now. Thats one of the tracks i mentioned i didnt know and never heard of but hated it and yet people around me sang it. Not sure how all of you have heard it before and appears like a lot. But man this song is . Not sure why it fits in with his set at all. |
