Re: Melbourne loves Danny Howells !

Just backing up Didi's words Danny did an awesome show here in Melbourne and everyone was loving it I knew Melbourne would get things back on par after the Perth disaster, the Rollin boys did a perfect warmup for Danny and his set was just pure class, he started out with some really good deep tribal sounds lots of bongo's & yummy warm sounds and slowly progressed into some deep hypnotic funky progy house & techno he covered eveything in the 6-7 hours as u would imagine. I really hope the set becomes avalible for download I would luvvv to hear it again, Im very tempted to check him out again tomorrow

Re: Melbourne loves Danny Howells !

Some local wanting to make a name for himself . Came onto a forum here saying Danny should harden the fuck up !!!!!! Maybe his username on the forum explains a little "DKolonic"

Btw Danny took down that blog, and has since apologised for it . Personally I think he had every right to say what he did and I appreciate that he said it!!

Also just found out he is playing again at a club within walking distance on Thursday night. Just time to recover

Feather, Rollin connection played the best warm up set last night. A good Dj should be able to do a good warmup set. We have a lot of good Djs in Melbourne.

Forgot one asked about deep house, I thought so , whatever, it was some of the sexiest music I've heard in yonks, built slowly and superbly over the night! You knew it was going to be amazing from the 1st track and it was

Keep forgetting stuff. He was down at floor level, and the sound/vj guy said it was being recorded
Fabulous crowd of incredibly friendly people who certainly knew who Danny was.

hey guys..it was ME!! and to be honest im not feeling the slightest bit sorry for myself at all...danny howells is a world class dj and should have been able to deal with the situation in a much more profesional manner!! i was on 12 - 130..the club was packed, full of energy like it is every weekend...i think i did a reasonable job maintaining the room...not once did i play any techno/trance or did my bpm go anywhere near 132..infact i maintained it at 128 then in the last 20 min brought it right down to 125 which i personally think is rediculous for that time of the night!! i respect what he does and have always been a fan..but i was pretty disappointed in the position he put me in!!!

Re: Melbourne loves Danny Howells !

You should really read this whole thread. Its fucking hilarious

And Danny's response

Ok everyone.
First of all, I've been feeling really bad since writing that original blog. I wanted to write something about why I played a shorter set, but it turned into an angry outburst. The next day I realized it was unprofessional to vent my frustrations in that manner so I deleted it. Too late though as once something's out there, it's out there!
Colon, you're not the first DJ who's banged it before me recently, and I'm sure you won't be the last. Normally I just deal with it, as there's little else I can do. However, on this particular night, my record bag (which, I hasten to add, contains the bulk of my bangers, compared to my cd wallet which takes the bulk of my deeper stuff) had gone missing. So when I got to the club, I was taken to the office for a drink before I came on. On hearing what you were playing, I made it clear that it was going to be very difficult to follow you, especially as my records weren't with me. On no occasion did I refuse to go on, but Roy kindly offered to ask you to "bring it down a bit" which you did ... a bit!
Once I got on it soon became clear that it was going to be very hard to maintain the energy you'd built up, and to hold onto the floor. That was why I requested the next DJ come on a bit earlier, as I felt I was wrecking the night with the change in flow.
Colon, I'm sure you're a nice guy, and probably a great (peak-time) DJ too. But your comments are making it hard for me to like you. I never wanted this situation to escalate like this, but when I see your comments about how I've been "throwing the shits" (??! please elaborate - this is news to me!) and calling me a girl, you're not really doing yourself any favours.
Anyway, I hope this all calms down as generating this kind of drama was never my intention.
Perth, when I return next time, I'm gonna try and find a venue for an all-night Dig Deeper party. That will hopefully make up for the truncated set you got from me last weekend - I do want to make it up.
And Colon - I'm sure we won't be playing together in the near future, but I'm willing to kiss and make up, but only if you can quit with slagging me off! And I would like to apologize for the way I publicly dealt with my frustrations. i took it out on you when in reality, you were just the straw that broke the camel's back.
Danny
