okay, its about time to post a review!
Frostbyte was flawlessly executed considering the sheer amount of organization involved. Djs were booked for a total of 24 hours, all of whom showed up and played great sets. I heard more good music over those two days (friday and saturday) than I have in a long time.
first, the set up: plenty of room to dance, plenty of room to wander, plenty of seating. free water for 24 hours. clean washrooms. adorable decorations. funky lighting. loud system. live internet feeds and webcams. it doesn't get much better.
now the music: the first set i caught was Clint House's funky techno at 6PM. amazing! everyone who was there will confirm it, this guy has got the skills. too bad he didn't have a better time slot! but then again, you can't fit 20 some odd DJs in the prime slots.
other stand out sets: Doublecross' set at the high point of the night. packed dancefloor, high energy, tracks i had never heard before.
Jelo was purely random. thats why alot of people like him... you never know what you're gonna get. i thought it was kinda ridiculous, but hey, its all good.
D-Minus, for weeding out the softcore weenies and the old fogies who couldn't keep up! all anthems... absolutely hysterical. CheeseCore blaring at my on-campus bar. priceless.
Spinsah (Phaedrus) and Strongbow's trance sets. both were completely exhausted but neither of them let us down! Spence gave us some wicked tracks and showed us his KISS imitation the whole time!
Alex (Strongbow) was wicked too! i loved his track selection and it was perfect for the time of day. nice job guys!
at this point (7 AM) i really had to get some sleep. but the following afternoon i listened to even more sick sets from home while writing an essay! Morgan Moran's show closing tech-house set was surprisingly interesting and groovy. i hear he had to contend with breaking needles too...
sooo... probably one of my favourite nights in london for a long time. so many familiar faces. so many TBK kids.
personal highlights:
-Stormshadow pouring his beer on his crotch. slick.
-meeting Black Elvis.
-singing along to far too many hhc tracks to my friends' horror.
-meeting Preroller and doing all i could to keep dancing with him thru the morning!
-seeing people from all my courses and talking about school stuff.
-RAVING AT THE SPOKE! what more can you say??? its just so surreal!
Congratulations to all the organizers, the DJs and the MIT council for pulling off an outstanding event!
