[quote=jay813;583202]omg NOW I understand what the fuss was all about. I couldn't count how many times I shook my head in utter disbeleif that a dj could do what he did last night/ this morning. This was clearly the party of wmc. I had to leave at 5 to get to work by 10, which I'm still at, LOL I'm so fawking exhausted!

I have pics and vids which I will post as soon as I unpack my bags.

Miguel, ran into your homie and was talking about the amazing party u missed, I really hope 16 bit lolitas was worth missing this.[/quote]

Glad to see you get the vortex now Its the craziest high in dance music As a dj Diggers still stands alone

Re: REVIEW: John Digweed @ Vagabond WMC 2008

I'm still getting my head around Hernan playing a warmup set:shock: How many djs of his statue would not only play a warmup set, but from what I'm hearing here, it really was a warmup set. :lol:

Sounds like an incredible night. Glad you all had such a wonderful time. :D I love EDM!! :D

i have to agree 100%, non stop mind blistering tune after tune. never letting up. i am amazed at how technical he is. he is constantly working the mixer/effect, every song he seemed to transform it to his own liking....... if this ever gets released i will be so grateful.

now back to work and reality...very difficult to handle

Prydz played this at bedrock - I think its fair to assume its his own edit/remix that he gave to John that night :D

#993032Post 61 of 247

Re: REVIEW: John Digweed @ Vagabond WMC 2008

That was the first diggers set I've seen since he used to rock my world back at Simons in 98-99...and Vagabond had that same Simons feel to it, right down to the ceiling dripping sweat because he tore it up so hard. Let me just say that he blew away anything I've heard him, or [U][I]anyone[/I][/U], ever play. The bar has been raised to a completely new level. There needs to be a law passed so that everyone is forced to listen to that set, and then another law passed immediately after banning it forever because it should be illegal to do the things he did. Music has been violated in new and dirty ways, and I love it.

Yo Jib, see Carlos on the left side facing the camera. I can't tell if his eyes are closed or just turned inside out. haha. By the way he almost killed us like 3 times on the way home last night...told ya I should have drove.....

Re: REVIEW: John Digweed @ Vagabond WMC 2008

OMG....I'm still in awe of what we experienced on Sat. night. There were moments when I was dancing and had to stop 'cause the music was blowing me away. It was great to meet some MS peeps. Steve, Mike you guys rock. Neoee, such a sweet guy and his girlfriend was a sweetheart too. Can't wait 'til the 11th for Sasha and Digweed in Toronto. On my way home in a few hours. I'm going to need to sleep for days.:shock:

[quote=chuckc;583170]Hernan warmed up only 10am -1am. Hernan was ok in the begininng real chilled deep melodic warm up.....but then after a while i was getting real bored with some of his selections. wasnt all that impressed but then again it was just a warm up set.[/quote]

that is a real problem I want to deal with

#993185Post 71 of 247

Re: REVIEW: John Digweed @ Vagabond WMC 2008

Looks like they replaced the Steve Dash Phazon Sound System with a custom Funktion One sound system. Kind of ironic that Vagabond was Twilo Miami.

#993191Post 72 of 247

Re: REVIEW: John Digweed @ Vagabond WMC 2008

Anybody else that was there have any more pictures they could post. Thanks jay for uploading your videos.

Probably a long shot but I hope somehow someway this set could get released. I would gladly pay dearly for it. Too bad instead of releasing so many studio mixes djs couldnt start releasing live albums. Just give some of the proceeds to the artists who trax are used in the mix.

[quote=Jibgolly;583235]heat and one-stall bathroom debaucle will be included in my report. :)[/quote] Definitely make of note of the bathroom, but forget about the heat. They busted the ladder out and turned the air all the way down half way through his set, short of some cold air blasters (which woulda been sweet) there's no AC built that could have cooled that party down. Anyways, you'd probably sweat in Alaska Jib, what do you care?

Re: REVIEW: John Digweed @ Vagabond WMC 2008

From bedrock

Just wanted to thank everybody who came down for making it an amazing night. Hernan did a great job setting things up, and I loved playing in that room the whole club had great vibe all round.

As for the set I am going to make it available as a free download. Just working out how to do it and will post the link later on today.

Many thanks

John
