[QUOTE]There was a trippy relatively slower part that peaked with "Blood on my hands" Villalobos remix and an unreleased Erofeev "Abdumanob" that will be out on Nikita Zabelin"s Resonance label soon. (I was very happy about that particular transition that with the bay view in front of me, the sunset and strong cold wind blowing in my face took me into some other dimension)Just before it got completely dark there was also non-4/4 part with Bjarki's upcoming "Fresh Jive", fucked up beated Eric Martin's "Emergency" and that one track that has been an absolute essential "WHAAAAT???" gem in my recent sets that basically is a very bassy techno yet beatless sonic weapon with a repetitive Russian speech ( not mine) that suddenly for about 1 and a half minutes loses it's own shit speeding up to 155 BPM, changes skin and one amen break into another turns into a proper drum'n'bass or even hardcore (in an old, d'n' b related original definition of this term ) to finally drop the speed almost to 129 and become his normal self- a totally my cup of tea like tune. An absolute gem that is made by a Russian girl Mira aka ISHOME or Shadowax. The tune is called " I want to be a stewardess" and soon to be out on my трип label. There was also a proper Ghetto House/electro part with Dj Slugo "Wouldn't you like to be a hoe" ( A track that I have been playing for about 10 years now) and a pussy track by dj Assault. Both tracks were played at their original high speed. Last but not least there was also fast, trancy, acid techno part with some classics, unreleased and pretty hard to find tracks including one rare Australian made trance track that mimicries a techno track if served slower.

I want to hear the set.

Controversy aside, I don't often hear a DJ talk about their sets and I like her articulation of it.

I have heard so many bad techno sets played by guys, and I do mean bad not just "I didn't Like" , and no one asked for money back :lol:

Kinda surprised at Melbourne though, what's happened to the scene? The set sounds like the stuff Laurent Garnier might play and people in Melbourne always lapped that up. Maybe it was the time of the day too, it was a day-to-evening party.

Re: Nina Kraviz vs Melbourne

I wonder if her recent sets are somewhat in line with her upcoming Fabric album..

This is a personal preference, but I am not really into the trend of only playing 30-40 seconds of tracks for hours.. I understand that it works at certain times, but not for the whole set. It's really hard to get any sort of a groove going..

Went to to see Cassy a few months back and.. good music but no flow

Wonder if Nina is going in the same direction

Re: Nina Kraviz vs Melbourne

My impression was that the set was just too eclectic for the crowd :lol:

My guess, is that it will be a lot less exciting, than it sounds.
