Ok, so I like Techno, more specifically Trance. Unfortunately, the US, it's let's just say... a bit behind in that department. If you ever hear such music on the radio, or even in the street, let me know (for instance, in Australia, I heard great Techno in even a waterslide park of all places).
Anyway, at least, with San Francisco nearby, I've had some opportunities to see some great DJs, even if at least at 1015, I've often been disappointed by what they played compared to their usual sets (it's been better overall at Ruby Skye in the recent years).

Over time, I've seen many of my favorite DJs across the world, whether it was locally, in New York City, Canada, Australia, and of course Ibiza, and at Halloween 2004, I finally attended some great local parties that proved that you could get the good stuff locally too (even if all the artists came from other countries :-).
That said, I ended up finding out that some of my favourite DJs who put out great CDs and mixes, unfortunately mixed mostly boring tunes when I saw them live. That was quite a disappointment, but I have been hanging on for the few times where some DJs did actually play great live sets). It's a tough job, but someone's gotta do it :-)

2008/06/21 Above & Beyond at Ruby Skye
π 2008-06-21 23:51 by Merlin in Clubbing

I managed to miss a few events at Ruby Skye this year unfortunately, but was at least able to make it for Above&Beyond this time.
This time it was actually Paavo and Tony who came to play (so far I had only seen Jono and Tony). While they had to start a little bit late, probably due to the backlog of people waiting outside to get in (yes, they still draw a good crowd), they played a great set.
Hours later they were still rocking the place, playing great tune after other great tune when we were feeling beat and were trying to go home, keeping us inside instead :)
It was definitely a great time, looking forward to the next.
