    How was WMC??

    I thought a space should be created for those of you who made it down to Miami last week to share your stories of your experiences...we're dying to know what your favorite night/day was, who surprised you, who dissapointed, crazy hotel stories, most embarrassing...
    Hope everyone had fun!!
    Peace.

        favorite sets: Olivier Berge who opened for pig and dan
        Clive Henry who opened for Lawler.

        both were dark and dirty. i was only able to recognize a couple tracks from henry's set and none from Berge's. Berge was also the biggest suprise as i had never heard of him prior to that night. If anyone knows anything about him, please share.

        disapointement: The Saw Party was CANCELLED! But other then that, Desyns at the bedrock party was the most disapointing - im not sure what happend but the music cut out twice, digweed even kind of pointed at him when it happend. his set didnt seem to go anywhere, and luke fair stole the show with out a doubt. Jimmy van m didnt show.

        hotel story: getting kicked out our hotel for smoking a blunt only to get it back an hour later and also have our drinks comped at the hotel bar for the rest of the trip.

        favorite club - state although it was hot as hell inside, there was a good vibe and great sound.. although space is pretty cool, esp being on the terrace at 7am.

          Sounds like everyone had a good time at WMC. Can't wait to here some of the WMC sets over the next week or so.

            Hey man...glad you liked the set. Though I just want to point out that the sound issues were not Desyn's fault at all. I had the sound cut out twice when I opened and the monitors would cut in and out all night. Also, one my cds that he was to mix out of must have been scratched and died in the cd player and stopped the music completely.
            Unfortunately he was the one standing up there when it happened.

              Every dj's been there, it's not a matter of IF it happens...cuz it will.

              It's all about the recovery.

                thanks for clearing that up - i wasnt sure what to think as it happend twice in a matter of like 20 minutes or so. I didnt get there until mazi was finishing up. Shit happens. It was pretty cool how john was hanging out on the street by the door and greeted us when we came in.

                        I couldn't agree with you more. The show of the conference was the Hallucination Party on Wednesday night at the Marlin. The only downside to the whole evening was the fact that it was hotter than hell in The Marlin. I ended up dipping right before Three went on because I couldn't breathe. Thank god I got to see Damian's set though. Abso-fucking-lutely AMAZING. As he walked through the crowd on his way out I had to stop him and tell him that I thought it was far-and-away one of the best sets I've EVER heard. He threw down some of the most evil, twisted tracks I've heard and the man was just brilliant with his mixes and effects. The whole night was incredible and Mazi deserves some proper respect for his set as well.

                        Other than that my highlights include seeing Nic Fanciulli at the LMR Party (along with [ms]ers: neoee, jibgolly, code11, picklemonkey, djmatthew, evangelion) on Thursday and dancing my fuggin ass off in front of the booth for his entire set. What an amazing talent he is. I implore all of you to check him out if you're lucky enough to have him appear within 500 miles of you. Truely brilliant. The Spleen Records party thrown by Mehmet was a wonderful time as well and had one of the best lineups of the conference (Bill Patrick, Desyn, Ozgur Can, Barish Turker, Dan Berkson, Dr Kucho, etc etc etc) not to mention the fact that it turned out to be the 2nd offical unofficial [ms] meetup (me, chuckc, remoh, rubyraks, picklemonkey, ftc, code11, holy shit I'm drawing a blank). Anyway, someone out there has pics of the event.

                        Last but not least, Sasha & Digweed. The only thing I could've wished for was that it had been in a better venue. Hell, it could've been in Abu Ghraib and it would've been a better venue. But what a helluva show!

                        Well, I will post pictures and video later but I have to go get something to eat for the 2nd time since last Wednesday.

                            Im still recovering... HUGE thanks to all that made it out to the frisky party on Sat. Great meeting rubyraks there!
