This party seems too good to miss out on, I'm going. =)) Anybody else is up for it?

It's a possibility.

Cool cool cool, I think we met at ZNA some years ago. K-BAN introduced us. =))

[Dolmot]

Possibly possible too.

How was the show?!?!!

[staffan]

It was fantastic. My friends and I arrived a bit late so missed most of Corkscrewed. But I didn't hear a singel boring track the whole party.

Prana played a lot from the latest album and a few classics. Both Nicks slime mix and Desiring Machines, which are my favorites from that album. =))

 

 

Total Eclipse did a full retro banger set, and they have many of them.

 

Squaremeat played awesome. A few tracks from other projects also. I'm really happy he played Kulloon Kellot.

Prana was damn smooth. If you search for Tsuyoshi sets (or have heard one), you know the deal. I didn't feel like track spotting but maybe some of the 2013-2021 remixes of classics there and new album stuff of course. But IMO the real highlight is just how well it's put together. All those juicy basslines, one blending into another. I didn't even think about taking a break from it. 

 

Total Eclipse definitely has many hits, all the way from the early 90s. I think we got a higher amount of originals there. They're somewhat harder to put into a really continuous mix. Nevertheless, Waiting for a New Life, Can't Do That etc. at 3 am still bring back something very special from the days when I managed to get some selected compilations to the backwoods and things changed.

 

The venue is a proper no-frills techno cave which gets the essential rights. I think I'll be back at least for CBL next year.
