for the last little while, all of the parties i've been going to were of the prog/house/techno variety. dirty is what you'd call the music. always lots of fun, lots of dancing. the music always brings an angry little snarl to my face when i dance.
trance however, brings the hugest smile to my face and makes me scream like it was my first time. fists pumping, body jumping, this is what trance does to me. pure big party music.
last night was all that and a bag of chips. mark oliver started the night off amazingly. i don't know what to say about this guy. first, a little banging, and i emphasize banging, prog. then, brings on a little fluffier prog, then WHAMO! here comes the trance. good lord, even in my 1.5 by 1.5 feet square of space, i was shaking my ass, thrashing my head about, all the while with my fists in the air. the tunes made the crowd go absolutely insane.
then armin came on, and yup, big time epic pussy trance right from the get go. they had a big spotlight on him, and you could see the huge smile on his face. he just fed off the crowd, dropping huge tune after huge tune, bouncing and dancing behind the decks. for the first hour or so, he provided the cure for my itch for trance. i was completely sober, but rushing like mad. he then switched pace and started dropping some heavy prog, percussion ablazin' type stuff that just makes me go nuts. then went back to the trance again, and again, the crowd exploded. the crowd responded to him almost in the same way as for s&d last week, i couldn't believe my luck. all this for $15 (eve though it was supposed to be $10 before midnight, but the girl at the door was like "it doesn't matter what time it is, it's FIFTEEN DOLLARS!!).
i think the night is best summed up by what i was like most of the night.
eyes closed, ass shaking, screaming, and fist pumping. only trance will make me do all that in one night.
cheers to the absolutely wicked crew who came out last night, you guys were the reason i enjoyed myself so much as it didn't matter what the guv crowd was like, cause i was surrounded by such great people.
