Night Vision 1.27
(Co-Written with Bruce Benson)
Avalanche, cyclone, earthquake, famine, flood, landslide, tornado, volcano, labor day week-end.
Can you feel the pain yet ? We do. I just cut myself in three with a chainsaw to attend as many events as I can over the week-end. I might leave trails of blood on the dancefloor because the wounds will be far from healed but what the hell, the only difference between blood and sweat is the color, right ?
So pack up your drugs, soak your mouth with booze, and don't forget to swallow like a good girl : you'll need the moral support to stand up after a couple of party-fueled days !
Week-End Review
A full two-day dance marathon at Aria? Why not.
Last Friday's Conduct night finally delivered the goods. Mini's set picked up with Motor, who set the mood for some thundering dark electro madness. Guest Jason Delis' dropped a seriously twisted set, bathed in the warped sounds of Switch/Solid Groove. G O'Brien made good once again, capturing the evening's mood perfectly with Bushwacka's "Beastman": "Qui ne risque rien n'a rien – les apparences sont trompeuses!" Lots of folk at peak time, and a great party in general.
The new promo team's efforts are showing, and things are picking up at the Rue St-Denis venue, as evidenced by Saturday's party people-filled dance floor. Marco G's set was on par with his usual, which is to say it was pretty damn good, and beard-less Miguel Graça kept the heat on high with a mind-bending tech-house set.
We heard that the Chouchoune's loft party didn't rack up as many partygoers as expected on Saturday, and that Akufen and Ark's sets at Academy last Friday were wicked, but we couldn't make it. Send us a postcard saying "Wish you were here" and we'll wipe our tears away with it, promise.
News en Vrac
Well well, guess who's coming to dinner? Green Velvet, on September 23rd, and DJ Dan on October 7th. Get ready for some after-hour madness: both events are happening at Aria.
Now, guess who's not coming to dinner? Miss Kittin, who is no longer visiting North America this September. Oddly enough, it's Voir Québec that first had the scoop, but we waited for this to be confirmed before mentioning it here, because you know, these guys aren't always in their right mind.
Jake Fairley, AKA Fairmont, will be performing live next week at Mini's Overdose night at Parking. Nice to hear, since we were wondering who the guests would be for the rentrée...
Guess who's gonna get shitfaced like crazy with lots of cool people on Sept. 6th ? Us ! We're launching the website officially, with the musical help of Thomas Von Party and yours truly, and it all goes down at Lola Lounge for a mere 4$. Needless to say, you're all invited to come down and boogie with us, especially if you're a devoted reader. Are you ready for Cocoballz & Mirrornutz ? Shake them testicles !!
Thursday 31/08
Jennifer Cardini, the parisian chicka who teamed up with "Ho" to offer us the much played track "Stay", remixed to good effect by Roman Flugel, is Mini's guest at Parking. As Belmondo would say : "Ho !!"
Sean Kosa, Poontz & Kai share the decks at Mix Thursdays. Mix it up, mix your drink and get mixed !
Friday 01/09
The madness starts. Thomas Von Party + Boys Noize share the decks at SAT. 20$ gets you in and once you've entered, you will never wanna get out.
At Zoobizarre, Flaky Disco presents D*I*R*T*Y Sound System, from France, and Why Alex Why ? This is the launch of MEG, Montreal Electronic Groove.
Aria welcomes local electro'ers X-Cube & G O'Brien for some more late night madness.
Saturday 02/09
Chromeo take control of the SAT with DJ Lindsey, from NYC, and Why Alex Why ? once more. Neon Nights, part 2. 20$ at the door and a special price for whores.
At Metropolis, things crack & shine as Ellen Allien & Apparat, Ghislain Poirier, Feadz & Uffie, DJ Mehdi, Sebastian, Busy P and Motormark come from all over the planet to get your groove on. MEG madness ensues.
Ferry Corsten, the punk-ass DJ from Holland, plays Aria.
Sunday 03/09
This is le Jour du Seigneur, right ? No sir. Not here, not now. DJ Remo, from Italy, come to town to show us how to do it the latin way. He collaborated with D'Mia and Chelonis Jones on tracks he recently released, and Bender invited him to Balroom's No Excuse night to kill the lights. Sean Kosa also plays.
At Metropolis, MEG still goes on with the overblown Para One, the experienced ESG, the vulgar Lio & Tekilatex (from TTC), the rockers Planningtorock, the hot Ferenc, and the unknown Jean Nipon.
Neon Nights concludes its SAT occupancy with the biggest bash of the week-end. Jordan Dare opens for a live performance by aussies The Presets, and filthy frenchman Riton ends the night with total mayhem. Look at him the way you want because he sure has "the looks" - but if you end up chatting with him, don't mention his square eyes, please.
More a day scoundrel than a night owl ? Piknic goes to Jardin des Floralies once again as Misstress Barbara and Anton A take control of the decks !
If cheese is your favorite grocery store department, head over to Stereo : Armin Van Buuren will amaze you. Aria is open too with yet another trance night.
Monday 04/09
It's TURBO PIKNIC TIME !! It wasn't announced on the initial flyers at the beginning of the summer and that explains the general state of sadness around the world right now. But cheer up, folks ! Mark Dillon, Thomas Von Party, Jordan Dare and fuckin' STEVE BUG will play at Place de l'Homme. 7$ to see all of 'em ? It's a steal, bro !
Tuesday 05/09
Wanna feel Dizzy ? Head over to Academy Dancehall !
Wednesday 06/09
One word for you - and no, it doesn' mean "chocolate-coated testicles" - COCOBALLZ ! If you've got the ballz, join Coconutz' regular crazies and a whole bunch of other fuck-ups as we launch Mirrorballs with style : face down on the floor.
Next Week
Calm down. Have a sniff of whatever. Take your binoculars out of the closet and prepare to spy on lewd & lascivious behavior as the next edition of Voyeur takes place at SAT.
Until then: keep the booty flesh gigglin' !
