It's just one of those nites (or in my case, mornings) when u come home and say "That was the best party.... EVER!!!". Thing is, I think 1/2 the parties thrown by Temporal Rhythm have sent me home thinking that very same thought. It doesn't lessen the value of any previous party- it just shows that they throw parties the PROPER way, and very often, it reaches that 100% mark on the nose. Am I making any sense? Who knows?! All I know is, I HAD A BLAST!!!
Hartec laid it down HARD at the beginning, and really started playing some really sweet stuff that would better flow into Gielen's set. MC JD was GREAT! Oliver was on the ball, if not more so. He makes me his slave every time. Mark Oliver like you'll never hear him at Guv.
That was my 7th time seeing Johan, and I think it was my favorite set of all. He just keeps getting better and better with every visit. His skills on the mixer tonite blew my mind!!! Track selection was incredible. Danced all nite- every muscle in my body is sore! Johan is one of those rare DJ's who takes me higher than any drug will- I'm so glad I stayed sober last nite. (the expression on my face all nite: :D )
Got a copy of the new Trance Energy 2003 cd with DVD (thanks SO much Johan!). Love and respect.
I took a million pictures. They'll be posted this week. (Still got more to take tonite too. UGH!!!!!). Met a ton of 'Viva-virgins', new TA faces, and loads of really nice people in general. I can't even begin to post shout-outs- just know that if I spoke to you at all, each and every one of you are partly responsible for making my night so great.
I suck with track ID's, but Arsalan got most of what I would remember anyways. He mixed Fat Boy Slim's "Star 69" with Umek's "Gatex" (not a Mauro track, but was always played by him). ;)
He also played:
Divine Inspiration- "The Way" (Green Martian mix),
Marcel Woods- "Serenity"
DJ Sash (?) with ? - "Recycled" (on Media Records)- the song that sampled 'Joyenergizer'
& closed his set w/ a Jan Johnston track- "Beachbreeze" by Svenson & Gielen-?
The 'Super Spin' party will probably pale in comparison to Johan.
If you missed this party last nite, just kick yourself..... HARD (you deserve it)
Only 12 more days til session #8 w/Johan @ the Dance Valley party during the WMC in Miami. WooooooHooooo!!!!!!! :eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes: |

me and Pyromancer were dere too
hooked up with Cuzo
told E-motion i was the porn king of Ta (i duno, i was probably messed up)
^^ damn that guy is HUGE.
we left at around... 4-5
in my honest opinion, i must say that there was nothing special about it. I actually think Marco V from last year Blew me away more. I guess its all in our own taste in music. Either way the crowd was hype. The dancers I got a better look and man have they got Camel toe.
I think I saw Tatgirl with a camera going up to the dj stand, DAMN, she looks so much better now. hahaha.
CUZO!!! U must realize that trance alone will give u the high, not E lol.
overall a good night. Way too many guys once again as always in viva. I tried to dance with some of the girls but most of them were uptight and wouldn't dance with anyone else but there own little groups, very disappointing. makes me wana go to a hip/hop club lol
disappointed that i didn't see many other ta's though, we got there at around 11:30 and saw no one at coffee time so i guess most of you were inside already. |

johan gielen was really good!
this was my first time in that club, and its ! look at the crowd.. they cant even party. in stoners with ghetto clothes took E's and smoked pot the whole night, and just sat there. i swear, i felt like kicking them.. there were normal people too, but not many. and there were so many 40year old people.. what the hell is this.. ill go back to europe and see this guy spinning @ Sensation and other good clubs & events with normal crowd.
:mad: |

Well, I must say - music wise this was a very good party, Hartec owned! You should post your tracklist EVERYTIME you play, it's always nice to know we got amazing local talen :D. Johan surprised me too, his was was much better IMO than last time, great energy.
Now, in terms of crowd - I've never seen it worse. The place was waaaay overpacked. I'd say about 1/3 of the ppl was just standing 1/6 were dancing (PS I don't count bopping your head to the rhythm dancing ;)) and 3/6 were doing drugs. Too many ppl smoking weed, popping e and sniffing coke. I don't really care whether you do drugs or not. Just don't do them on the dance floor, standing there taking that then tripping out and bumping into everyone around you. I mean go to the side, trip out, look at the trippy laser, talk to the walls around you, you can even BUMP into them for all I care, just don't do it on the floor.
Music wise 9.6/10
Crowd 4.0/10 - horrid :( |
