i tend to be thinking 'this is the best night of my life!' every time i go out, but i'll try to limit myself to 3 moments, in order:
3. cox and emerson @ home (without drugs of any kind)
- dancing to emerson and he drops freelance science-'can you feel the funk' (off his uruguay cd) and im thinking 'how good is this?', then he drops timo maas-'ubik (the dance)' right from the start, and as those fucking mad synth sweeps wash over and the bassline filters in im thinking 'how much is THIS gonna rock?'............ and then i remember who he's warming up for!
- later, during cox's set, i see an image thats burnt into my brain from now on: the home dancefloor entirely rammed and totally going off, everyone moving in unison. i think this was the point where i realised ill always love electronic music (in all its forms) and raves in general.
2. Sasha at mobile home (many, many drugs)
- walk in, thinking how great it is to be outside in australia in summer, and how hard the man like is gonna rock. declan plays barbarella as his last and then its sasha...
- dark ambient beginning and then the beat kicks in, as does the red hq and the next 2 hours passes like it was 15 minutes... one thing i do remember though is a girl in front of me saying 'man i love this music' and ynow i have to agree with her.
1. a plump night out @ the metro (some drugs)
- proper breaks fucking MADNESS. i have never seen a crowd more into it than there, and by the looks of it, neither had the plump one. seriously, dj and crowd, together as one...
- after a fuckin awesome set by mr. Rous i sigh and think its all over. how wrong. kenobi comes on and plays lee coombs 'future sound of retro' and i fucking LOSE IT.... and ive never found it since
sigh.... writing that has got me amped
good times
