madthatter Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 What's the best line up for a night you've ever been to? Remember a NYE at Alexandra Palace in about 1998. Orbital live - Laurent Garnier Live - Chemical Brothers live and then Sasha and Digweed back to back. Pick that one out :-) Blimey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc505 Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 I find Pete Tong's Radio 1 show on Friday night proper hard going these days. So much disjointed or minimalist sounding stuff on there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonzo Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 I find Pete Tong's Radio 1 show on Friday night proper hard going these days. So much disjointed or minimalist sounding stuff on there. Thought the same about Danny Howard covering Annie Mac earlier in the night mate. It does my head in that they decide what's popular and what's not. He said at one point in his show 'is trance coming back?" It never fuckin went anywhere. ASOT is on tonight in front of about 90,000 people. Check the Ultra events and A&B sell out stadium tours across the globe. It's bigger than prog house will ever be. They should at least chop things up and play something different than house music with bongos smattered with drum and base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big E Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Trance isn't big in the U.K. But Holland....massive. Europe has proper trance radio stations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry missed this in the haze of yesterday, I didn't hear Howard's show but his Dance Anthems program has been un-listenable for ages. And dont get me started on B-Traits' stuff. Things made somewhat better by me retuning my telly and now able to get Clubland TV haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whiteboy Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 (edited) http://www.youtu.be/JjseOpGtS_I Quality set from last night. Don't think there was 90k there though Gonzo mate. I heard Armin actually played a decent set, unfortunately i was pretty much unconscious around that time Edited February 20, 2017 by whiteboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flicked through that set, sounds ace. This too https://twitter.com/alyandfila/status/833738383847469057 Not fancy my mate Nicky at gorilla in a couple of weeks?

Great venue, nice city. Plenty of English/Irish out there. Went last year and reckon I'm in again for next year. Boozing from 5am at Stansted wasn't a good idea at all though. Way too pissed by the early evening, left my phone at the hotel (not a good idea in a venue that big) and the first few hours are a bit of a blur. Dan Stone was epic 4-5am then Armin played a vinyl/classics last hour which was quality (didn't get that last year after PvD fell off the stage). Wandered into a free afterparty for an hour or so - some really bad states on show in there. Back to the hotel for breakfast at 8am! I did see about 10-15 mins of Ben Nicky, not really for me but seemed to be going down pretty well in the 2nd room. I'm at Dreamstate in Brixton that night, i'm not sure 2 weeks will be long enough to have recovered from this... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whiteboy Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 What was Ben Nicky like in the end Gonz? Getting mithered to go along to MoS in May for his night... Haye-Bellew messed up Dreamstate for me the other week, didn't get in until 12.30, combined with a 20 min cloackroom queue the rest of the crowd were on a different planet to me by the time i got in. Paul van Dyk was quality though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whiteboy Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 Well, yeah that's what I don't really get about it...isn't it just a slightly 'trancier' version of the late 00s hard house tidy/polysexual etc that seemed to pretty much die off? I'll probably end up going, just not sure i can handle 3hours+ of it these days, especially in Ministry - the sound levels are pretty brutal in there.

kent_white Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 If you like your old style progressive house then Enrico Sangiuliano is well worth a listen. I realise you'd probably class it as techno but it's got an old Bedrock type of feel for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got a bit of cult following, reminds me of Eddie Halliwell back in 04/05. Love a bit of Scot Project for harder stuff. Bit of a techno vibe in his stuff too. Kent, if you like a bit of prog/ minimal techno check out Mark Dekoda if you haven't already.
