Booking # 153: 5th Annual DnB BBQ, Ceder Creek NY

This is probably my favorite day of the whole year. This was the 5th time Strife and I presented the event. Even thu its lot of work to run the event its certainly worth it. We started about 2 hours late because my car broke down on the way to the bbq! Thankfully my father bailed us out and came to the rescue. Thanks dad!

Even with the delay, and headache of breaking down on the grand central, i still had a fantastic day, albiet a tad shorted then expected. Some of the musical highlights for me include The Insiders and Sol.id's sets, but everyone played quality music. The Insiders played a great set mostly of that deep minimal style that i love and they are known for. Really quality upfront tunes and a few classics. Sol.id played an excellent set of well known tunes and a bunch i did not know, melodic stuff, soulful, deep, funky. Strife as always delivered a quality set, we were going to tag but for various reasons I ended up opening. I played alot of US stuff, brand new Dave Owens, Sinistarr, some great stuff by Hobzee and Zyon base, as well as few Mixmaster Doc and Random Movement tunes, which are basically new classics in my opinion.

The grill was roaring all day, burgers, chicken, I grilled a whole salmon, removed the skin and vertebrae and we all enjoyed it thoroughly, even thu i forgot the lemons at home. Great group of people, lots of fun, hope to do it again next year. Thanks alot to my mom for coming out and taking all the great pictures.

Many more pictures soon!
