| I'm intrigued by the way so many of u hate twisted, azim, and others so much, but I don't know why. Any personal experiences or explanations would be very cool. |

- Overpriced tickets
- low quality DJs
- attracts the wrong crowd.
- gives bad name to electronica
Although, I would say that twisted 2004(Armin and AVB) is going to be awesome, and I'm looking forward to that event. Just 9 days remaining :D :D :D |

NightCreature pretty much summed it up from the partygoer perspective...
From a promotional/DJ standpoint, Twisted is a pain in the ass too. I have seen PROOF that they are really unprofessional in dealing with DJs from outside their organization. They only book their friends to play, no matter how ty they are. It's selfishness, plain and simple.
The same thing goes for Solid Corp too, which is more or less the hard trance version of Twisted. They don't give a about the music, all they care about is MONEY. For instance, at Insomnia, Vlado was given an hour on the decks, and he played the best set of the night, whereas the Shy Brothers spun one of the worst sets ever and got two hours to do it in. Quality DJs mean nothing to them, they have no idea how lucky they are to have some of the talent they do. But that's just how this city is, there are too many goddamn idiots working in the scene. |

| around 80-85 % of ppl who go to twisted and solid parties go there to get ed out of their minds on e, and not for the music, they know that , and they dont care, as long as ppl buy tix their happy, sound sux, local dj's sux, overpriced tix...so much they do... |

solid corp is different from twisted. they arent as much about the $, they just need to break even to be happy. ive been to about 10 of their events (i know them really well) and they have lost mega $ on some of their club shows.. its all about the djs. Equipment, lighting, etc is not important... its the quality of the tracks. the big raves just put them close to even.
twisted is a business which cannot afford losses, which is whiy they are more cuthroat businesswise.
i must admit that some of the songs shy brothers played at insomnia have been overplayed by them, but anyone whos heard azim play sholan - can you feel a million times knows what i mean when i say they havent reached that point yet.
on a side note, i loved vlado. |
