Almost 2 years to the date since I last played Respect, last time was opening for Commix. Its such a pleasure to play what is one of if not the biggest and most respected Drum and Bass weekly in America. Absolutely professional promoters, sound, venue, vibe, everything. Just a fantastic night, huge packed venue, few hundred people. I played 10-11:30, good crowd, early, had people dancing for my whole set, thu it wasn't packed, and alot of people were outside listening to Dj's in the patio. Still people reacted strongly to my recent collaboration with Dave Owen which is a great feeling. Kjell's The Dynamic also went over huge, as it always does. I started deep but for the majority of my set i think I played slightly harder than i usually do, although it still maintained the funk... Few halftime tunes, went over well. The bass was HUGE in that place, so i tried to play the real bass heavy tunes, my last tune was Machrophage by Mixmaster Doc, sounded really excellent on the system. Good to connect with a few of my west coast friends there, Jo-S, Calculon, Machette, and nice to meet Asides and Clutch. I'll be back on the west coast in July, looking forward to another return to LA!
