Hey guys, was just wondering if the Argentinian mega space Moonpark was still around? I haven't seen a set that said it was from there in a while. Even though I don't usually follow the sets much. I always remember hearing about it and how awesome it was.

One thing that got me thinking about it was a few weeks ago I saw the M_nus Contakt DVD where they were in Argentina and what a crappy place it seemed to be that they were in. And why they weren't at a huge venue like Moonpark.

Any help is appreciated.

After that, the DJs that used to play at Moonpark (Digweed, Sasha, Zabiela, etc etc) are hired to play in State (a club), which, IMHO, is way inferior than a Moonpark (VERY crowded, for example). I think that it's more profitable this way :evil:

We really miss them here!

Re: Moonpark

no more moonpark.... btw, they were called moonpark because the party was at "Luna Park stadium". Only the first two were made there: the first one with sasha and Hernan Cattaneo, and the second one with Carl Cox. Great parties, I went to both.... then the organization moved them to other places, some horrible sheds with awful sound. But the djs were great (digweed, satoshiie, howells...)

Re: Moonpark

Martin Gontad sold his production company (2Net) to a big multinational production company called T4F (Time For Fun) so now he has to pay % in order to do Moonpark style parties (the brand Moonpark was acquired in the deal) while getting a % in the ownership of this new club State, which is not actually new, but a revamped re-tuned old classic BA club. Thats why all the exclusive deals he has with super star djs (and agencies) he brings down to BsAs now go to State

No $ to share now.

No love to give, now.

boo

Re: Moonpark

yeah I kinda always wanted to go to such a massive event. Especially for one main headlining DJ. Getting to see Hernan in his home country would be killer.

Thanks guys for all the info.

Re: Moonpark

Hernan played @ State, but you can imagine how that turned out.

kind of 8 people for every square meter - and of course here the 'legal allowed capacity' of a club is stil a big question mark.

there are rumors moonpark might come back, but I think rumors dont know the insight of the deal with this companies, so I guess rumors are just cries of hope.

EM has slowed down a bit here in Argentina and its overall popularity... aaand parties like Moonpark are a big cause/effect of this. Lets hold tight.

And Mr. Garcia is closer to a 3rd age retirement than a club dance floor right now !

[color=#BF4040]some friends from cordoba, that supposedly know some people, talked about some things ... ... but I guess yes the hope is very strong influence .. ........ just hope rumors are reall

what really hurts and do not understand at all, is that there are no creative proposals, really creative in different spaces, with the number of sites that should be in bs as I really don't understand ............ .... not happen in Montevideo is okay .. no people, much less in the progressive house scene, ................ .... but here is incredible that does not pass, makes you want to join with people who love music & are wellbrian [bien del coco], .. start to put things together .. for the good of all including djs! .... .. and people who do not belong, which is a lot .. .. . . gradually disappear

I mean is BsAs ... big city ... . .. ... we must not let decay take everything, .. here or anywhere

the opening of State with John at least yes it was up to BsAs and what the real people of the scene deserves ......... old place rearmed with quite design, ... sound, ... 6 hours set ... .. welcomingyou babes etcetc ....... ... and most importantly, ideal or nearly ideal space to flow in peace

on Satoshi the space issue was also well, ............ ... but in Hernan was really insane, sadly even dangerous insane .. all night looking for space to breathe and try to dance relaxed .......... ... if not for the 6 hours of music in heaven :roll: , .... .... .. I can not speak of Sasha because I went to Cordoba [mágic cordoba]

Martin last Saturday was 3 hours almost 4, .. quality music, underground music, .... .. but the place sucks, shit on the design and more stuff

sorry for my indio english

yeah, that was last saturday, but before that his last gig in BsAs - he living here -I think it was in December. there you go.

and Didi nahhh.. its not depression... depressed I would be if a family member is sick... I dont care anymore... argentina is socially fucked up at the moment, and of course that translates into the dancefloor.... it's very sad, but I am happier going out abroad that in my own home town.. at least I enjoy it more, much much more for a big number of reasons.

its just how it is right now here
