Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

I thought the idea was to go to a gig and then bitch about it. :lol: Why are you bitching about it. ??

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

Good Question. Not too sure to be honest, just felt like bitching about it, and what a better place than an EDM forum.

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

So is this a good bitching or a bad bitching? Confused.

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

Good definitely good. The girlfriend does the bad very good though, all her bitching is bad.

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

Ah right like Charlie Sheen bitching. :lol:

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

It's the flavour of the month in'it? Although I do not reflect myself as a form of an astonishing drug. And sadly do not live with multiple women.

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

I hope your girlfriend doesn't read this :lol:

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

Well sometime I wish she does. Oh the futility of this emotion love.....

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

You are having a strange day aren't you :lol:

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

Doing 11hr days at work and going to Uni in the evenings every second day has finally caught up...trust me its worse than hallucinogens.

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

I know what you mean , when I had my photographic business . I worked in the darkroom for three days once without sleep, I lost chunks of time, fortunately I kept working :lol:

Wow I feel sorry for you, that developer stuff is as strong as dog shit. Would love to see some of your work. What did your company mainly cover just weddings and things?

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

Didn't do weddings, mainly entertainment industry stuff. Movie stills etc. And mainly for particular photographers. That stint was to get out a whole heap of stills for a particular film. Head shots etc. I don't do it any more .

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

Amazing night. Thank you Sven and Richie, blowing minds one click at a time.

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

Glad it worked for you!! :D Sven did a no show at one of the events down here :lol: Was supposed to be [url="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=681"]Loco Dice[/url] and friends , guess he doesn't have any friends because it ended up just him :lol:

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

Melbourne...everyone gives up in Melbourne. However, [url="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=681"]Loco Dice[/url] would have been pretty wicked.

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

Heard Hawtin was great and Vath was boring.

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

Haha well I think that's a given. But both played some fantastic tunes, and the crowd was pumping, nothing really boring for me.

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

I went to Local sessions on Friday saw [url="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=1159"]Sean Quinn[/url] play the best set I have ever seen him play.!! :D I think we have slightly different taste in music :lol:

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

Sydneysiders like their avant garde snoozetech ... (mostly). Not that Hawtin and Vath would've been a snoozefest.

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

^^Yeah good points. I can't put a genre that Sydneysiders are...seem to me they love their electro pop...a little too much.

Can't say much about Melbourne, too much of a European influence, which is definitive good thing. One day I'll hit up chapel st, or wherever the Melbourne clubs are and experience on what the call the Melbourne shuffle. One fine day....

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

You haven't club in Melbourne yet? Come on!

Brought a Sydney colleague to party in Melbourne and he loved it! We hit Billboards for Sasha and then Brown Alley around 4am in the morning, ended up trying to get back to the hotel at 3pm from some random suburb :lol:

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

That sounds like fun.

I did hear average things about Brown Alley, but definitely have to do it soon. I was there last December but didn't get much of a chance to hit the clubs. Casino was good for about 20 mins...

Why the hell are you stuck in Shanghai again?

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

I spend most of my clubbing time at Brown Alley!! :D Whether or not it is a good club probably depends on your taste in music and the promoters on any particular night. I love it !! So many good nights for me, and the promoters that throw those nights are great !! It's also home to the legendary Sunny. Although we really only get those as part of the No Nonsense crew now.

That's where [url="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=568"]Charlie May[/url] was !! :D [url="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=1159"]Sean Quinn[/url] last week. ! :D Oh, and Sven did turn up to the gig there. :lol:

And it's where Danny Howells is doing his Dig Deeper gig!! :D

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

Nice.

I must quote my former boss, who now transferred to Melbourne. When I told him Zabiela will be at brown alley, this is what he says; [I]"[COLOR=black][FONT=&quot]Shame its at Brown Alley, [/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=black][FONT=&quot]Pony venue."

[/FONT][/COLOR][/I][COLOR=black][FONT=&quot]To be honest at the end of the day its just[/FONT][/COLOR][I][COLOR=black][FONT=&quot] [/FONT][/COLOR][/I][COLOR=black][FONT=&quot]a large dark room with a blaring sound system and some lights, big woop!

Melbourne definitely the best planned city...god it was so easy to get around even though I stayed there for 2 days, and circled only the MCG, and Little Collins St. Fantastic place. [/FONT][/COLOR][I][COLOR=black][FONT=&quot] [/FONT][/COLOR][/I]

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

^Ughh never pasting anything again...

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

Paste and match style. :lol: He must have gone on the wrong nights. The top room is just a big room , although the sound is good. The restaurant area is great ! But as I said, a lot depends on the promoter. The Darkbeat/Sunny nights, and Zabiela was one of those , are really well done . Steve of Sunny is absolutely fanatical about the sound being right and it usually is. :D And he does some amazing things, with the decor sometimes although I must admit if the sound is right I don't notice much else. They do have multiple screens happening though.

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

Restaurant, definitely awesome!

Yeah sound is crucial, but at the end of the DJ doesn't know much about it well no matter how expensive your speakers are its a bleeding ear.

Paste and match style - gotcha....new around here.

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

^^^ I didn't understand that for moment. Did you think Steve was a DJ ?? He is a promoter, they bring in sound/vj guys/girls and Steve wanders around all night making sure they are doing it right :lol: [QUOTE=feather;937684]You haven't club in Melbourne yet? Come on!

Always the biggest complaint about any show there. :lol:

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

DD that was awesome, I'll have to plan another night out when I visit Melbourne.

I think on the whole Melbourne just has more and better venues than Sydney. Sydney's scene is more pub/flashy bars than clubs. (I do love the Cricketers.)

Chinese Laundry has a shit layout and is too claustrophobic. Melbourne's basement equivalent would be Billboard which is a lot more spacious, has a biggish flat dancefloor with a stage, and extends way back where the bar and seats are.

The Civic is decent but the basement sound system is no good, the ground level feels like an afterthought. The Melbourne equivalent would be the Brown Alley which is really the Colonial Hotel on Lonsdale and King. The difference being Colonial is 3 levels, the ground level has a high ceiling that extends up the 2 levels.

PS. I work in Shanghai and clubbing is even shittier here. Sydney is heaven compared to this. The only decent club is Shelter and a bar called DaDa.

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

I dunno, I googled :lol:

[QUOTE=DIDI;937717]^^^ I didn't understand that for moment. Did you think Steve was a DJ ?? He is a promoter.[/QUOTE]

No, no meant nothing of Steve, was just generally commenting on some DJ's in general who don’t know how to control the highs and lows. Not claiming myself as a second born digweed, I have no skills in this field but hate the hipsters who think heaps of bass is what draws the crowd.

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

I'm sure there are Djs like that in Melbourne, fortunately I don't have clue where they play :lol:

Re: Seeing Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin tomorrow night...just wanted to bitch about it

Just found out they play at Brown Alley :shock:

[QUOTE]Sound was pretty awesome, and I have never heard such bone crushing bass in a club as I heard on Friday! [/QUOTE]
