Since our official TH.com reviewer is the DJ himself I am honored to write the review myself. I arrived around 11 PM with PROZACT to Mute which was full of friends who I havent seen for some time. Some folks didnt know about Mute and their first reaction to the location and space was very positive. Others even asked me to convince DJ Amadeus to spin in Mute and not OM. I have to admit a location in ashrafieh monot street (very close to DT) is much better than an isolated place in Beirut district. Although we went for the music and the DJ, we still would have enjoyed a tasty well done cocktail. Some cocktails were a disaster but I am sure the bartender can fix this next time DIONYSOS spins at Mute. Oh one last comment regarding the place is its resident DJ. Personally, I wanted to kick his ass for interferring with DIONYSOS's night and track selection but I guess this is always the case in every pub/club in Lebanon.
Now I'll move to the night and music itself. First I want to thank EVERYONE who attended and made the night a successful one. Thanks to all TH.com members and thanks to all the friends. I am sure DIONYSOS really appreciates your presence even though some of you are not trancers. Thank you! It really makes me happy to look around and see so many smiles and faces looking up and thanking God for a night to remember. DIONYSOS my friend with time and practice you WILL be one of the best DJ's in Lebanon. The fact that your tracklist is simply outstanding, good mixing skills, and understanding of the crowd makes you one heck of a potential future big DJ. Practice makes perfection keep practicing!!

I cant forget when Amadeus visited your booth and whispered in your ears maybe some words of encouragement or advise from the pro himself. Whatever the words were I felt happy seeing the Jedi Master himself beside the young apprentice. Having said this I'll move to the music and the crowd reaction. My friend as soon as you started the progressive (Starsign ~ Taurus) many of us switched to DANCE - INSANE mode. I am convinced that if Taurus is played in a cemetry the dead will rise and dance.

I also noticed you received few requests and one of them made the gig go wild (Motorcycle ~ As the rush comes). I myself made a request (Paul van Dyk ~ Crush) and I wont forget your reply: "3ala Rasse Esteeez Issam 3ala Rasse". I LOVE YOU MAN

Oh I want to congratulate you on your great bootleg of Adagio for Strings (Tiesto & Ferry). Man at first I was shouting Tiesto Tiesto then few minutes later Ferry Ferry!! Some thought I am drunk shouting different names for same track well they are right I were but I know what I heard.

The night continued until around 1 AM where many of us had to leave since its Wednessday and next morning we have work/university. I remember I went up the stairs to say good bye to DIONYSOS for an awesome night and great music. He replied Issam please stay 15 more minutes I have a special surprise just for you!! I smiled and looked at his GF and told her I think I know what he will play next. I went down told Amadeus and Johnny to hold their horses and not to leave because there is a little surprise from DIONYSOS. Indeed few minutes later DIONYSOS mixed in a Psychedelic Trance tune (my favorite style) and even one of my favorite tracks (Yahel - For the people). OMG what a marvelous finish and what a great ending. All in all two thumbs up to our future trance DJ and thanks again to everyone who attended.
