Re: Sasha @ Beach Club Woodstock (Netherlands) 07-05-2011
Alwright, a little review:
It was saturday around 1PM and I left my room. Cycled to the train station and the journey began. The weather was really nice and it was about 27 degrees (it's like summer in may for Holland :D). 2 hours later I arrived at the Amsterdam station and I took the bus to Haarlem. Because the weather was so great I rented a bike to cycle along the coast to the beachclub Woodstock.
There I was, Bloemendaal aan Zee. I watched the sea for a couple of minutes and walked to the club around 4PM. The wind was blowing in my hair and I felt great :). Their resident dj was playing some laid back lounge tracks and I decited to lay down on the beach with a nice cold beer. It was really a pity that I was on my own (my other friends don't want to spent money on special gigs or they had other things to do :(), because at that moment I really wanted to share my happiness with somebody. Luckily I had a little meeting later that day with a member of another music forum.
Around 6PM the grill was opened and I enjoyed the food. [URL="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=726"]Fady Ferraye[/URL] also started so the party began. Finished my meal and went to the dancefloor. Fady was playing some really nice tunes and it was a perfect warm up set for a perfect night. After he finished [URL="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=22"]Pole Folder[/URL] came in. One of his first tunes was a really big killertrack. It had such a nice float :D. The rest of the set was also nice and when the sun was going down he played some epic tracks like Oliver Schories - The Composer and Hollow. It really felt like I was somewhere on Ibiza. The palmtrees, the temperature, the people and the sun that was going down into the sea, just lovely :D.
Around 9PM [URL="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=5"]Sasha[/URL] came in. The party could start! He started off really slowly and the sound of the first hour was like his latest WOMB Tokyo set. When he played Midland - Leitmotif I had to think of the ADE Yacht Party that was also epic. After he "build" the place he began to play some more uptempo tunes and at the end he played big tunes after big tunes. The whole area was rising and everybody was going insane :D. He had to play till 11PM, but he went on till around 00:30 when he ended with Foals - Olympic Airways ([URL="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=41"]Ewan Pearson[/URL] mix) :D.
The way back was less fun ^^. It took about 3,5 hours and I was back at home around 4AM. But after all it doesn't matter, because I had a great day and I won't forget this great epic gig :D.
