The set up was almost identical to the previous gig with a slight difference in the Deep Room entrance (but sadly no actual difference in the music seperation..)
Meanwhile, maDJam was still warming up and boy oh boy! this guy must've put the best warmup set in his whole career yest, and it's not just my thought as i kept asking everyone i know about his set and they all shared the same conclusion. IT WAS HIS BEST so far! congrats maDJam and we would love to check a tracklist of what you played..
moving on to the official warm up DESYN MASIELLO who put up a nice warm up set with some steady housy beats that put the ppl who gathered for around a thousand (depending on my personal amateur calculations) in the right mood and the night looked going in the right direction..
After like an hour and a half the man of the event stepped in behind the decks and took the charge of taking the clubbers into a groovy house experience. His style was much more faster and more varied than of Digweed's which appealed to some ppl (like myself) as it was found much less repetitive and steady..
Also, the sound system was way better than at Digweed's (though still not perfect and the bass is still kind of high) as melodies started to be heard and vocals were clearer, but one thing that was bad with the soundsystem is the positioning as many places inside the Warehouse lacked clearance of sound if any sound at all!! (especially in the back!)
Getting back to the setup, it was very similar to the early setup with 2 nice green lazers that have been accompanied us for quite sometimes now though i would def. love to start seeing some colored lazers as well for it's time to implement them in gigs!
Also, it'll be a good idea to start paying attention to the lighting effects, and implement playing with lights at gigs to deliver a better portrait of the clubbing night (ppl will eventually starts to get bored with the dark theme with 2 green lights probing above them..)
Now at around 4 or so, I moved with AMADEUS to the Deep Room where JOJO was playing a selection of House and a few Trancers in front of a few clubbers who gathered there. Deep Room seems to be the weakest point in the Warehouse as it's terribly affected by the sound coming from the main room reaching almost half of the room where u start hearing trainwrecks and sound clashes between melodies. A point that proved bad later on when the deep room started to get packed, but ppl who were passed it's half couldnt enjoy music at all and had to leave back to the main room!! Also another fact that should be solved is the ventilation inside the Deep Room as it was so poorly ventilated and the dust coming from the ground near the DJ Booth was almost lethal for the DJ and surrounding ppl as well as the equipments used..
As for AMADEUS, as usual he put up a great tracklist playing some of the finest and freshest tunes while taking advantage of the cozy feeling in the Deep Room and started to taking pics with the numerous fans and managed to fulfill most of their requests..
AMADEUS played a variety of uplifting and techy tunes delivering a very varied set with some pounding tracks that at some points started to affect the main room
A very beautiful moment was when AMADEUS was playing First State - First State and i asked him if he would mash it up with Solarstone - Eastern Sea (First State Remix) he gladly did so and for a long time the 2 tracks where perfectly playing together forming 1 super long track that was fun to listen to!
I managed to go out sometimes from the Deep Room to check things outstide where Gunther and Stamina were playing their After Hour set. ppl seemed enjoying their set (which i think was Tech House) and many kept on clubbing nonstop as the daylight started invading the Warehouse Top bottom..
I had to leave at around 6 with AMADEUS pounding Ferry's Star Traveller with around 200 ppl still gathered in the Warehouse enjoying yet another clubbing experience!
Finally, it was very nice to meet many of the THerz who are true clubbing freaks and never miss a gig! though many were missed that night but hopefully will be gathered once more (especially on the next upcoming Trance event!!)
it was also nice to meet a few ppl for the 1st time like Marquis and Stamina, and it's always a pleasure to meet you Carlo, maDJam, and Mark from GFX!
Until next time..
Cheerz,
c ya all @ next event
