Glasgow DogsTrust <--- 42 Dogs needing to be rehomed
Click to expand...

I can't let myself look at those websites. I'll end up getting one. My maw wouldn't allow it & my mates have all told me that I'm not responsible enough to look after a dog when I'm living myself. Apparently it's not OK to just go & get your dog 1 day into a 3 day party & party on with the dog there... I disagree.

Already got my ticket %)

MJC & Paul Ritch =D Green Velvet is a bit of a guilty pleasure of mine an all, most of my mates hate him but I think he's quality. That Normal Nodge character is supposed to be excellent, I'd never heard of him before. Yoda can fuck off though, saw him at Pressure before & it just doesn't work. You're there to bounce along to some rhythmic techno, not watch some guy's skills as he cuts up about 15 tracks in 45 seconds without giving you a chance to get into a single tune.

I think I'll get the tickets tomorrow once I find out how many of my pals are going. I agree about Yoda seeming a bit out of place, he's more suited to the type of dj I'd go see during the day at a festival. Never been to the arches for a 5am license yet, I can imagine it gets fucking messy.
 
Now that real pills are back in full flow it'll get messy.

The last time I was there for a 5am license it was Green Velvet playing as well, other than the crowd round the main arch (which I was in the middle of) the place was empty. I was well shocked when I went to go for a fag just after 4 & the place was pure cleared out. There was only me & one of my mates left (out of about a dozen of us at the start of the night). Seemed that when the alcohol stopped flowing at 4 (& some other big-name DJ had finished about 3/half 3) everycunt fucked off. We were off our dials on mephedrone though so not giving a fuck haha. Should be a different story this time.

Saw Dave Clarke one time with a 5am license years ago & actually couldn't last the pace, not his biggest fan anyway, & left at about half 4 because I was dead on my feet. Walked out into daylight! That was a bit brutal, back when you could still smoke inside so I hadn't been outside since about half 11 when it was pitch black.
 
Speaking of The Arches. Last night :(

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-20282983

My mate was asking me if I knew why there was so many cops round the place at kick out time, I had no idea, assumed it was bams fighting. The "city centre club" they're talking about is clearly The Arches. Some cunt in Glasgow is selling PMA pills by the looks of it :|

It was Laidback Luke last night at The Arches so the place would have been packed with mental cunts probably. The report is a bit vague, could have just been a few fannies thinking they could triple dunt some defqons or something and ending up in a bad nick.

I'm guessing they'll be a bit more strict on the door searches in the next few weeks as well :\
 
I've heard talk of "bad pink pills" (I'm thinking red McD's) going around. Some guy from Viewpark (sketchy area, where you'd expect to find bad pills!) that one of my friends is kind of seeing told her that one of his mates died from a bad pill, all he knew was that it was pink/red though, so all she asks when someone's getting her pills is "What colour are they? Not pink? OK, get me 4" :\

There's been Defqons etc cutting about town for a wee while now, I've spoke to a few folk (usually in smoking areas) who've had them & said they were pretty wild, never heard anything about folk being hospitalised off them. This to me sounds exactly like someone punting PMA pills. Laidback Luke at The Arches would have been full of the sort of folk that would happily buy "5 for a tenner" as well.

They definitely will be stricter on the door. This better not fuck with Pressure's 5am license :| I remember some cunt died at Inside Out years back & they were crazy with the searches for a few weeks afterwards, police with dogs etc.

Edit - At least it doesn't sound like anyone's actually dead from that report, thankfully. I'd place money on it that it's PMA pills though.
 
Nothing planned. I will probably have a few cans tonight, then catch a bus home and maybe have a couple more, I was hoping for a game of poker at a real casino but it seems like it's just gonna be hanging out at a friends house for a few games of cards between us.

What we need to do is buy a fucking stack of booze before going out. Which often means crazy missions to get it if you end up coming out a club to go to a party at someone's house at one end of the city when your booze is planked in someone else's at the other end of the city (I try my best to leave my stash in someone's flat near to where we're going out, so it's easy to pick up no matter where we end up heading after). You also have all the unprepared (or just stingy, cadging) cunts who don't have any booze, so they inevitably have to drink yours. If you could just rock out a club & pick up some cargo from the shop while you're refilling on fags, skins etc it would be great. Stupid Scottish licensing laws :|

I'm staring at the clock wishing the hours away as if I was at work lol. This is ridiculous. It's Saturday night & I'm actually thinking "Fuck sake, is it only 5pm?". This is going to be brutal. I reckon I'm staying in next weekend an all, but I might at least be able to get a wee bag of green to make that enjoyable. Ahh well, time to roll up some more of this "hash".

Thats what I loved about ibiza, get back from the club, nip to the 24 hour spar next door, and get a litre of vodka for 7 euroes, cheap as fuck. If it was that cheap round here I dont think id still be alive, we get taxed to fuck. You see some sights in them shops sometimes its hilarious

Spar is even still rocking at 7am

Think if I was there though ^ id be out the door with a arm full of spirits. "oooher oooher" fuck off

still doing his 2 bar mixing with all tracks pitched together beforehand?
Click to expand...

Aye, that sort of shit. Thinking he's Mixmaster Mike because he can move the channel faders up & down quickly. I hate it when techno DJs try to scratch n shit. 99% of the time they are awful at it but because it's rare folk think it's amazing when it just isn't. Actually lost count of the amount of times I've shouted at Jeff Mills "JUST PLAY A FUCKING RECORD!!!! BOOOOOOO!!!!!" while everyone else is blown away by his terrible (off-beat) beat juggling & looking at me like I'm the idiot that doesn't "get it".

Went to see Clickbox recently (cunts that are signed to Minus, I'd never heard of them before). They (2 guys) were playing a live set & ripping the arse out of the effects to the point where just when a nice pounding bassline was going it would be drowned out after 4 bars by the cunt going daft on the effects again. So you're dancing away for about 30 seconds at a time then end up just standing there for a minute or two waiting for a kick drum to become audible again. It was fucking torture. Quite a few times it ended up just distorted into this high pitched screeching that was genuinely hurting my ears. It got pure quiet at one bit (again, because the cunt was going overboard with effects) & all I could hear was my mate shouting at the top of his voice "FUCKIN' BOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I'M GOING FOR A FAG!!!!" haha.
 
a good friend of a friend a friend said that he used to have all of his tracks on cd burned at the same bpm so there was no pitch adjustment needed when he was mixing.

yeah pisses me off when djs overuse effects. the idea is to enhance the sound, but plenty of muppets like to phase, flange, chop etc for the sake of it
 
Ahh, I didn't realise that's what you meant. I thought you just meant his bad attempts at being a 'turntablist' that he's so famous for. Strangely famous for being good at it, whereas he's actually shite at it. It seems that a techno DJ just has to attempt some sort of beat juggle, cut, scratch etc & they become well known for it, it's as if no-one in the crowd has a clue what the thing they're doing is supposed to sound like. Jeff Mills is the prime example, he gets mad praise for beat juggling & whenever I've seen him do it it's sounded fucking dreadful & I've just been wishing he would hurry up & get it over with & get back to just playing the fucking record.

Re the pre-beatmatched CDs, I didn't know Dave Clarke did that but I'm not surprised tbh (to be fair to him though he is (was?) a perfectly capable vinyl DJ). The likes of Steve Angelo & those other wanks all do that. Like, their entire set will run at say 128bpm, so every track on every CD is already at 128bpm with cue points & shit set. Absolutely ridiculous imo. I use fucking Traktor to beatmatch for me & even I will vary the bpm slightly during a set. Like, it'll start off at 124 & sometimes be at about 128-130 after an hour or so. Angelo even used this as his excuse when there was a video posted of him DJing completely without headphones. A full set. Folk were saying he was faking it, as you can't cue up the next record without headphones no matter who you are. Angelo's answer was that you can if your tracks are all at the same BPM & you've got cue points set already. So to me his answer was "Yes, I was faking it, but not in the way you thought."

If you were to give someone Steve Angelo's CD wallet & a set of instructions they could play his full set no bother with minimal experience. Like painting by numbers.

I rarely touch the effects, apart from the filter or the occasionally bit of reverb (normally to kind of cheat my way out of a track lol). I wouldn't even go near the phaser, flanger etc.

phaser/flanger can be ok for a big build up (snare roll or something) as long as it aint overused. calvin harris seems to filter his mixes more often than not and while it doesnt sound shit exactly i just think it would be better left alone.

This is my thinking. The dude that produced that track knows far better how it should sound than me fucking about with effects in my bedroom. Leave it alone & let the tune sound like it's meant to.

If I knew how to properly use the phaser etc I would, but I don't so I don't lol. I use the filter for shit like cranking it right on towards the end of a breakdown & letting go of it (I've got Traktor set so I can do this with jog wheels) just as the track drops back in, fairly light use, occasionally, just to make the drop seem to kick in a bit harder.
 
MC-ing cunts get on my tits, nights here with drum n bass in the main room, then house music, glitch hop and stuff upstairs etc. off my tits feeling the beats on a good liquid tune then some MC tosser starts jabbering absolute fucking nonsense
 
I've not long woken up. Started off yesterday with a game of snooker, few drinks, went off to a few pubs, drank all day. Got to about 11pm and the plan had been to just get the bus home because we'd both spent about £50 already and are kind of skint. I convinced my mate to stay out even though he claimed to have no cash (LIES!) and told him the drinks were on me. We ended up on a bar place that turns into a club with DJ / live band, got in for free because I know the bird that works there but it's about £4 a pint, don't really remember much of it or if stayed there long. Woke up this morning on my mates couch, don't even remember going to his flat. Must have went there to drink more booze I'm guessing, came home gubbed a blue and slept all day. I've spent about £80-£90. Dunno why I was feeling so generous, it's not like I've got loads of money I'm fucking unemployed and skint and my mates fucking minted anyway, guaranteed the cunts away out tonight with his missus for tea and drinks like every other Sunday. I've been far too generous recently with my cash, spending it on other folk, need to get a grip seeing as I don't actually have any. Think I'll stay in and save as much money as I can from now until Xmas.


The guys a pisstaker aswell, dosent do "change" here mate have these horrible shots as your £8 change, the cheapo ones in the thin long plastic things that taste like shit.. nice one.
Click to expand...

The bar doesn't give you change and makes you takes shots instead? Fuck that I'd demand my change and tell him to keep his shitty shots.
