Re: Sasha booed in Lisbon
Yup. Awesome mindfuck of a set. It kinda makes me wonder why he didn´t play a similar set, but I guess you have to be in the right mindset to play such dark music~.Originally posted by simonr
Here´s that thread :
Anyway, Sasha might unwittingly have been a revolutionary once again : after this event, there´s a huge debate going on right now over here, lots of people are saying that the comercialisation of dance music is killing it, that it´s time to take EDM back underground...something that probably is discussed a bit throughout the world, but which has been getting a lot worse here in the past couple of years.Comment

Very true and at any point in time he has access to new tracks. From what I hear, he has a FTP server and has some of his good friends in the industry reviewing racks non stop and uploading them to the server. All he needs is an internet connection and he has um-teen tracks at his disposal. I read an article about this not too long ago. Some of the names of people scanning tracks for him were Sean Q6, C May and many more. Sasha also said that this is ground breaking for him mainly for when he is on tour. He stated that once he went on the road for a tour, whatever records he had in his box is what he played the entire tour. Now if you go see 2-3 shows on the same tour, it could be completely from the first shows.Comment

Re: Sasha booed in Lisbon
yeah, but he also often said that to play a tune in a gig he needs to know it by heart. Which is I guess true if he wants to do any ableton thing on it. So I don;t think he can download tracks and play them on the fly...
I agree with whoever said that people who come for a Sasha gig should more or less know what to expect. It won't be a tribal night however much you would like it to be...Comment

Re: Sasha booed in Lisbon
I'm a big Sasha fan, I think he's the overall best DJ+Producer out there. But he can certainly do wrong. First time he went to Bogota, he was so fucked up he could barely stand up and spin the records... very unprofessional imo.He went back a couple of months later and did a good job.
Whether DJs should spoil crowds, I guess there must be a balance. People go to see a certain DJ because they like his/her style, so people should know more or less what to expect. On the other hand, people are paying to be entertained, so a bit of crowd reading does seem reasonable.
By the way, the Lisbon's set sounds like a good one, hope we would be able to d/l and judge by ourselves.NicomaxComment

Highly unlikely. I?ve been searching for his set from last year, the one I described in the thread I metioned above, and I never found it.Originally posted by nicomax
Shame really, I think some people would bust a nut hearing it.Comment

Re: Sasha booed in Lisbon
Although Sasha isnt my #1 pick, in his defense, instead of putting the full blame on Sasha, I say the event promoters and Sasha's booking agent (Im assuming he has one being the god like Dj a lot of people make him out to be) could be to blame too. They should know more about the venue and usual crowd at an event. Especially since this was only his second time.
Also, if all the top Djs like Digweed, Sasha etc played the same style over and over again and again how boring would that be? These guys are supposed to be "cutting edge" bringing us new styles and fresh music. How many times have you taken a listen to a new style set or track and thought, what the hell is this? Then eventually it grows on you and you actually start to dig it. Maybe this crowd didnt even know what hit them.....
Oh well, to bad for the crowd. Goes to show you no matter who you are you cant please everyone all the time.Comment
