So...I missed Morillo. No big deal. I got there as X-Press 2 were on, churning out all the cheesy stuff (do you really need 3 decks and 3 djs for this shite?). They were in party mode and there sets weren't crafted in the least bit. Eurythmics - Sweet Dreams (some remix) went down well with the happy-go-lucky crowd though.

Then wandered over to the Bora-Bora Ibiza tent. Gordon the Trumpet was on playing some fantastic house music, really uplifting and soulful. The place was rammed.

Then back off to the main stage....Lee Burridge! I didn't know he was playing! He was billed to play 30 mins but, probably because of Sasha's lateness, he played about an hour of incredible techy-house music, and to play to such a crowd just before you're off to play with Mr Richards as Tyrant across the way at Fabric. Great stiff. :RockOn:

Then of course the man like. First hour surprised me. I was expecting the same old set. But heard a few variations, new tunes and was moving my feet in no time. Nice to have a 10pm finish. :Rolling: Major down point was Sasha finishing with In A State, his remix and not his edit. :( Overall he worked the crowd well and it was more of the same 2004 brand Sasha.

As usual pics and vids to follow :WinkNSmi:

Get on it man ! :wink:

:cry:

Did you get rid of them tickets sir, i was so close to coming down but i had to do some work this morning. :(

So overall what timmy rate would you give it?

Re:: South West Four, Clapham Common

Lets be honest. Its a big commercial festival thing. Sasha's gonna take his money and just play out a load of easy crowd pleasers... Good to see Burridge keeping it real tho. :lol:

Re:: South West Four, Clapham Common

Yeah, ending on In A State was a disappointing end to the set... but what a set it was. Nice to hear Sasha let rip with two-and-a-half hours of large tunes - no patient build-up or fillers. Pounding, melodic, bassline-driven numbers for an 8,000+ crowd.

Only tracks I recognised were the Meat Katie remix of Deep Dish's Flashdance, Felix Da Housekat's Watching Cars Go By and what sounded like a dub of his remix of Cirque - Pokinoi... Anyone got an ID on the last track (before Unkle)? An electro/breaks/acid mash-up (my mate reckoned it sampled AC/DC)...

Burridge was wicked and I could quite happily have danced to him all night - didn't make Fabric - again his last track was a winner.

The sun shone, the beer was Red Stripe and not Carling (for a change) and while it wasn't vintage Sasha it was bloody good. :D

Re:: South West Four, Clapham Common

I thought it was quite a good event,not a bad set from Sasha only a bit quiet where I was due to it being near a residential area.

Not like Sasha to do a cash in event in the UK?? Why do you reckon that Presto??

Yeah didn't like hearing the remix of in a state at Fabric.:( Heard he played Killa as well???

Pokinoi 8)

Pics on resident advisor....

It was a good day, Bora Bora tent was cool and Gordon the Trumpet did indeed play a great set. Burridge was good, and I enjoyed the Sasha set, not his innovative best but did the job for a day festivcal.

Ive heard mixed reviews throughout the day?

Anyone else go?????

Still waiting to hear about Sasha in Space last night...

OK here we go 8)
