This was my 3rd time playing Philly, and by far the best time i've had. This is a new party, run by great people who are really into the music. Mostly DnB all night, although a very wide range of styles, with some dubstep and hiphop downstairs.
Beau's set was awesome, as usually. He has been Djing for 15+ years, so he really knows how to work a set. He played that rolling style that is is known for, playing tunes from last week to 10 years ago. It was good that I got to play an old school set at DD last week on vinyl, because it was good practice for this set. I played serato on vinyl for this gig, just like riding a bike.
I've been playing lots of fresh smooth funky DnB lately, with deep clean heavy bass line dance tunes, and this night was no exception. Lots of Sinistarr, cant get enough of his stuff lately. Also playing a lot of The Insiders, Random Movement, Raw Q, Kjell, Mixmaster Doc, Jubei, Spectrasoul, and some of my own tunes. People seemed to appreciate the tunes i played and the vibe i was trying to bring.
The monitors were not setup properly so it was a tad hard to hear, but sound was on point for sure. With the monitor and laptop in front of me, even as tall as I am, I could only see a portion of the club while i was playing, which is unfortunate, because its hard to play to a crowd that you cant quite see. It was a massive place, so the portion i did see has a good amount of people in it. Turnout for the night was very good, although a lot of people stayed outside most of the night to smoke. Its typical, and the smaller the scene the more people are outside I've noticed, i think because they all know each other and are not there necessarily to dance but to socialize. All in all, i got to play a real nice club for a good amount of people, vibes were good, totally a fun night. Much respect to Pena and the Droppin Science crew!
