Not sure exactly what you're trying to say there? Are you implying that because I criticised Loco Dice I am jumping on an anti-minimal bandwagon?
Re: Re: Wax:On - October Thing is with a lot of minimal...you need to be out in the club atmosphere to really GET the music. At first I was a bit like what the fuck but after hearing it out its slowly grown on me more and more!
Same here definitely! Since it was small it never seemed like the event was that quiet as it was always packed and by far the best music! We were there most of the day
i must admit i find minimal horrendously boring, like...standing there thinking "this is fucking crap" style boring.
There is some which is shit though I agree but when I went to dc10 and Luciano was on...there was someone next to me with a twister board out on the floor in the busiest club ever..then every1 in the whole club getting down on the floor waiting for a bass line to kick in then jumping up and going off it. Every1 was absolutely loving it and I really really enjoyed it! Although Lucianos stuff is wicked anyway
mrmonkey > Nah i wasnt refering to you. All i am saying is its amazing how people mention fuck all on here or say nowt with regards to bookings or DJ's who are minimal say and then come the booking all hell breaks loose. I know people who are proper into this scene but at the moment its thread bare up here for it, there elated with this booking and rightly so cos i would be in the same way i am the way Junior G's going with DJ's. You then get people tho who have overheard someone in a taxi que in the town say someones good so latch onto it and next thing there flyering for the bandwagon.. Then again whatever packs a club eh.
Exactly....if people are going to fill the club and its going to bring more awareness for the minimal scene then this could only be a good thing and hopefully more will be booked up here in the future much to Nicky etcs approval!
I didn't mean on the same night I just meant in Newcastle in general. And no I don't do the flyering and stuff for it anymore because Im looking for a full time job.
I admit I dont know the first thing about minimal who dj's what etc, I used to hate it but now it has quite grown on me from hearing it almost 24 hours a day for 3 months in Ibiza. I quite like it I didnt think I had to know a minimum amount of information about the dj's/tunes/ etc to LIKE a type of music
ive never got this "bandwagon" crack - who cares if people start liking stuff? its funny cos people whinge when a club is empty, but then when its full they winge cos its all "bandwagon jumpers"
My CDJ's will be here this week like and al be taking them out of the packaging and setting them up if anyone wants to come round and make a Minimal EP with me hew ??
I don't whinge- if a club's full then I'm happy. People can jump on all the bandwagons they want. I like what I like, simple as.
Well i find it funny and others know what i mean, if i wanted an arseholes opinion i would of dropped me guts. Jog on.
