And as far as Esscala/Sankeys, has Esscala ever had a non-trance event? I'd imagine this has got to be trance which is what got me excited in the first place... |
After EDMNY or whtever they're called bought esscala out they said they would be branching out into different genres so maybe that's what's going on here. |

The reason these trance events don't go until 6 or later is because the crowd doesn't stay. The reason the crowd doesn't stay is most trance sets these days are too on/off.
What do I mean by on/off? Breaks. So many breaks. 1 minute break here, two minute break there, three minute break in the very next song. 4 minutes of beat and then 3 minutes of holding your hands in the air just doesn't keep the energy flowing, no matter how good a set is. Don't get me wrong, those sets are great to listen to when I'm sitting in my computer chair, but at a club keep that ing beat rolling. Edit your tracks if you need to, like Christopher Lawrence does.
Listen to some old trance tracks from the late 90s/early 2000s. They all have one thing in commmon; they keep the beat rolling. They still might have a "break," but in the old school breaks they still maintain a beat throughout, keeping the dance floor throbbing as the melodies build into a heavier beat.
My next releases on L*C*D are mostly breakless trance songs. BRINGIN' IT BACK. |

| 3 hours is what we have to list officially, but once John gets into it and if he wants to go longer we are not going to stop him ;) |

| Just got a ticket to this. Haven't been out in about 2 months because of a torn ligament in my ankle so hoping it'll be good for this. Also, Sven Vath is the next weekend? woooo! Can't wait. |

This drives me absolutely ing crazy. Those breaks are so much more special and powerful after hearing 20 minutes straight of dark wacky . Almost like the light at the end of a tunnel.
drops and breaks in every single song, i hope it dies soon. |

I believe that was the other way around ;)
But yeah, youre right, i do remember mention of genre testing...so im not surprised to see house ect on rosters in the future.
Maybe this will be my opportunity to slowly find a way to like techno? HAHAHAH

i agree with this, not on a personal level- because i dont personally need that, but i see what youre saying here. I can see the difference, like the MA night, didnt have that- there was driving beat straight through to 5am.....and there was also a crowd through to 5am.
Im trying to remember in my past instances crowds in relation to music, but i honestly havent paid close enough attention. I selfishly love an empty dance floor, room for my drunk ass to bounce around like a fool HAHAHAH (but i realize that is in no way beneficial to the venue or artist...it just is what it is) |
