You're lucky you didn't catch DT's most recent set @ Stereo, or he would probably be tied for best and worst sets this year. |
How ironic is that, hah! |

Add Cassy @ DEMF for best sets outside of Toronto too; Sasha for Best DJ, and; Lawler @ Guv in June for best sets heard in Toronto.
I'm also glad that I discovered Eelke Klein recently. I can't believe I haven't listened to him before. |

As the years pass me by I rarely make it out to clubs as I have a hard time enjoying myself with the crowds. With that being said, I managed to get my dance on a few times this year and had a great time at the following:
Paul Kalkbrenner @ Footwork - Most people will agree that this was an awful night due to capacity, the sketchy Friday night crowd, the fact that Paul didn't play a "DJ" set and had interim breaks between certain tracks. Apart from me missing his introduction he played a stellar live P.A. and his music sounded so crisp on Footwork's system. His techno is the only type of techno I truly enjoy these days. Set of the year for me.
J00F @ Vola - The last time I saw this man in action was @ Freedom 2007 when I was really into Progressive Psytrance. For the most part he kept me engaged and dancing all night long. I have never been able to enjoy Full on Psytrance but the Progressive Psytrance he was laying down that night was excellent. Hats off to J00F for staying true to his own unique sound and not hopping on the bandwagon like the majority of DJ's that follow trends and patterns. |
