the lotus used to have a great soundsystem...last few times been there though its been going downhill.

[Filo]

I know it was shit for adam freeland... no bass and allllll treble....but that's the only time I've been there in a while

[Akeel]

the problem with so many vancouver clubs is they dont hire proper sound technicians to do anything. for example...who decided to put the extra bass bins right in front of the decks @ sonar on sunday? granted bass is omni-directional but thats still piss poor positioning. all that bass just hit a sea of dampening bodies that surrounded it.

[Wood]

I really like the setup at Atlantis, with the big bins positioned around the dancefloor & the hi-mids way back around the perimeter of the room. It sounds awesome, the bass can be fully rocking but you still don't have to scream at peop0le to have a conversation. I'm not sure what caused me more hearing loss on Sunday - the screeching highs of the sound system, or the people who kept coming up and FUCKING SCREAMING in my ear.

[Akeel]

atlantis is kicking right now :) probably the best lighting rig in the city too. its a shame of its location though and they might be forced out of there.

What a great way to end my birthday weekend! Thanks for the spanks! I had so much fun. AK1200 was great as per usual. I *heart* dieselboy!
Dalyn - that was fucking hilarious when you flipped that chick's skirt up! She was not impressed at all.
Kam - again incoherent as fuck! we'll have that conversation sometime soon haha
Matt - it was great meeting you and finally putting a face to a name.
the rowdy brothers! - Dave and Ryan you guys rock! Dave, girls don't like it when you push and shove them. I was ready to bop you one right in the nose! haha j/k

*winx*

the show was fucking dope.
i guess i had Andy C hyped up too much, because i was let down.
First time i ever heard live vocals from the Miss, and they were tight.
AK1200 and Diesle boy playing it rough and hard.
its was good times, danced to until my pants stuck to me and my hair was a frizzle.
*yuumm*
cant you hear the beat of drum sound stuck in your ears?
*buzzzzing*

[dj_soo]

I think I'm also going to have to agree with Wood and Mirka and a few others - fantastically fun night but hampered by the poor sound and the repetitive floor-banging tracks. I thought illesha definitely put on the best set out of all of them since she let her music ebb and flow rather than play banger after banger. Definitely wanted to hear more building and easing off with slightly lighter and more funky tracks to give the heavy ones more impact, but then again, it's Andy C and Dieselboy... guess I should have expected it.

Still an absolute blast of a time tho.

most likely "the score" by van city's own -- Krusha.

[Ragga_Wh0re]

^yeah It Was!


If Any Of U Received A Set From Jimungle Or One Of His Loyal Ho`s That Track Is On That Set Numba 8!

[lacosanostra]

I too think Wood has said it best... yes the setup and the crowd energy were off the hook! however the sound system was like a 16 year old girl getting it good from Rocco Siffredi, def couldnt not handl;e anything, should have been properly eq'ed but whatever, and I concur that I thought POTD and Andy C were rather boring, where was the originality something special etc... but I saw a lot of people loving it all night, so they must have been doing something right!

good job ph1, the show was fun and well organised!

[say_whut]

what a way to top of the weekend.

after 3 days and 2 nights of camping in sub par weather, i boarded a greyhound bus and began my journey to POD.

i had a bit of trouble gettin in the doors, apparently i was too drunk. the oh so friendly bouncers made me get back in the line up 3 times before giving me the go ahead. but only after they made me promise to not buy any drinks. yes, i was cut off from the bar before i even got in :|

the next few hours are a lil fuzzy. but i know that i was thrown out; either for tryin to buy a drink or for sleepin at the bar. i'm not too sure which one.

no matter how much i pleaded with the bouncers they weren't going to let me in. little did they know nothing was keepin me from tearin sonar apart. i waited for the bouncers to get pre-occupied with other patrons then hopped the velvet rope and made a dash for the dance floor. I MADE IT BACK IN! and i stayed in, and i danced, and i drank, and then i met ak1200!

as i stumbled through the smoke room i saw a familiar lookin face sittin there.

me - "hey man, you look like ak"
him - *smile*
me - "hey man, you ARE ak!"
him - *smile & nod* "yes i am"

i sat and talked with him for a while, even got a picture taken with him. (thanks peter!) i can't believe he let a drunk like me babble away with him for as long as he did. really wish i was a little more sober so i could remember the details of our convo. i do know that i told him my whole ordeal of trying to get in, then he had a good laugh. that was by far the highlight of my looong weekend.

hello to all the people that chatted with me while i was stuck outside.
thanks to thoes that tried to get me back in.
a big fuck you to the bouncers. i know you were just doin your job, but fuck you anyways!

i listened to that at bassix today, sounds good.. i'd have to hear it on a system to hear how that basslines sounds...sounds heavy though..

[Moon]

krushas new track is pretty sick

i pumped it on my system and the basslines pound pretty hard

That doorman just slung you over his shoulder & walked out!! classic. I'd hardly stopped laughing at that when all of a sudden i see about 4 bouncer's forcibly ejecting our young latin hero.....

fuck i thought i saw the whole show but was just drunk, cuz i woke up with cuts cuz i feel in my trees at home, and passed out on the staircase.. i swear its cuz i drank alot the night before, then woke up and sat in the sun for hours then drove home from camping and drank again.. haha how embarrassing, i'll be standing at the next show for sure lol



Taddy bear, yeh u were there the last time i did that, but that time i could still walk and talk a little
