Ascension 18 @Palais Royale

[ecstasy riot]

Well, I went and I left.
Fully reitrated my loathe of trance and people who take it seriously.

The venue was awesome, and I love the way they opened up the patio onto the lake. So gorgeous, too bad I was freezing with a jacket.
My 1st Ascension, 2nd trance party. I have learned my lesson - not for me.

Had a great time! S4 and Grimace were amazing, definately set of the night.. Orangepeel was awesome as well - except what happened to the sound around 3:30? It seemed to just cut in half and didn't seem to do as much at lower levels... ahh well.. was still a fun time, but i'm sick of makin that hour and a half drive home.. three times in a week is too much.. oh well, see ya again next weekend i'm sure

P.s. .. meghin..what was your first trance party? wintergalactic?

 

[ecstasy riot]

dave: yes

 

[Cheer Bear]

It was fun

Pete was the highlight set of the night

then my friend got kicked out

then it sucked

 

[Smurf]

What else can be said about St. Pete.

AWESOME as usual and was definetely the highlight of the night.

What a truly inspiring person.

The Parking Ticket scare and seeing some cars get towed kinda brought me down for a bit. Running outside frantically praying my car wasnt gone is something I would rather have not done. It seems it was ONLY people who parked in areas of the lot that were not designated parking spots were towed. Something to remember for next time.
ANYWAYS....

I love the Palais Royal

Pete =]

I really enjoyed it, it was my first rave.

Met a lot of new and interesting people, loved the music, danced, had a great time. I'm looking forward to Ascension 18 at the end of the month.

BTW, there was this guy that had a kickass shirt, "I [heart] PORN"

Dats why! YOu have nothing else to compare it to.

 

[Musical Rush]

That was an amazing party the vibe was so strong the people were great the music ahhhhhhhhhh how sweet is hard trance ,for the one that doesn't like the trance hmmmmmmmm ,there's nothing better then a wicked hard trance line up, you compare it to other parties well you can't compare it to other parties like the house or jungle cus i look at them as either a thug party or clubber party(house) you should try your 3rd trance party with Lab 4 live at ATM if you don't like there set then you'll never like trance...maybe your just to old for the energy that trance brings to a party and you can't handle it....

Oh really? An trance is age-specific, and are you saying that trance makes people energetic . Which is a somewhat igorant comment to other forms of music. It's not about handling a party, it is about appreciating music that your mind likes.

[Musical Rush]

Well i guess your mind doesn't like trance ..and yes trance does make people energize ..how long have you been going to parties???? Go to a house party then go to a trance party then you'll know what i mean about Trance brings out the animal inside (LOL) sort of speak..i'm not trying to be rude but i just hate it when people bash the music that i love and been raving to for 9 years.I thought it was rude on your part saying &gt;&gt;How people take trance so serious&lt;&lt; as if trance just came out of no where ..if people didn't take there music serious then there wouldn't be music.

 

[bucky]

i donno man, as much as i LOVE trance, I've been to some 'house' parties and things can get crazy.. I'd almost say a crowd for house music can be much more energetic than trance at times... Donald Glaude, Dj Dan, Hipp-E, Halo, Mazi, Josh Da Funky1, all some house dj's that can get a crowd rockin

 

[Musical Rush]

Yeah there's some hard house dj's that can get the crowd going ..come to ATM and watch how LAB 4 gets the crowd going then go from there .

 

[AVE]

you want energy, hype, and a rocking crowd??

two words: Jungle Room

cannot be beat, no matter how you slice it

What does how long I have been partying have to do with this? I've been partying long enough to make proper assumptions, let me assure you.

Trance brings out the animal inside?
I doubt that. To me, most people dancign to trance look like they are about to be carried away by god or fumbling their feet cos trance does not have the same amount of soul as house does, for the most part.
If it is good house (ie. Dimitri) the crowd feels the music, and dances to it.
Jungle is the same way. Trance could never live up to what those two have established.
IN MY OPINION!

Well i guess this is coming from a clubber that just dicovered raves and doesn't know what the hell a rave is, house is for the clubbers that stuff does nothing to me just make me sleep there's nothing to it you call it soul music well to me thats club music i call TRANCE brain music it makes you think ,it exspands the mind to new heights which i see you wouldn't know anything about cus you like SOULLL music and for the jungle,well if you like music that sounds the same after 10 mins and want to hear the same bass line for 10 hours then have fun ,you just stick to your electric circus crowd and leave the real raves to me ..and it's funny how all the top dj's in the world spin trance hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

 

[AVE]

^^^^Ha.....you are such a fuckin joke I can't even believe..........."All the top DJ's in the world spin trance"........whateva buddy, maybe according MIXER, MIXMAG and other wack music mags...and as for your very educated comment about jungle having the same basslines and same sound over and over, well I wouldn't expect a sorry-ass oldskool trance head to think any different, so yeah

open your fuckin eyes man...if you've really been raving for 9 years, then you should be well aware about what music offers, and different styles offer different things, most people I know started raving only liking one specific type of beats, but over the years ALL have grown to appreciate other styles and forms and what they have to offer........don't be so damn ignorant

end of rant

 

[Musical Rush]

Yeah from the Mag's and from myself from all the dj's i have seen over the past 9 years and I see with my own eyes what each type of music brings to the table and by far TRANCE kills them all ..for the jungle i'm not the only one that thinks the same bass line is played over and over there's no inteligent sound in jungle it's just the same shit over and over and you need a mc to help it..for the different styles of music i heard them all and thank you i'll stick to my hard trance and goa trance any old skooler will tell you the same or maybe they just got older which means softer now they listen to less intence music..so that's my opinion and you have yours

hahahahahaha..... hahahahaha.... that has got to be one of the most foolish comments I have seen on this board in a long time.

I'd make more comments but I'm tired and have to get up early tomorrow. For now, try climbing out from underneath the rock you've been living under and realize that there's much more to good music than just trance.

ahhh.. thanks, my sleep was good.

btw: your opinion as to what's best for rave music means nothing. If what you're saying would be true than all we would have is the Destiny and other trance oriented parties in this city (not that there is anything wrong with them). But *gasp*, there's also other parties with other music and *gasp* many people attend those too. WOW!

hmmm.. maybe those people have not seen the light just yet like you have..
