I feel the need to whinge about the lack of hard dance in Melbourne in particualr the big festivals.
The lineup for godskitchen is good with some really talented artists but where is the hard dance, its the same with Godskitchen (yes Ed Real and Andy Farley were there but i'm talking about superstar dj's) Elctronic festival got it right earlier this year with proteus and Kai Tracid, but why do GK and TT never have big name hard dance dj's i.e. cosmic gate, dumonde (yes retired now but in the past), hennes and cold, dj scott project, lab 4, phil reynolds, the tidy boys, rob tissera, billy bunter, jon doe, dj spoke, K90 etc. pharamcy parties are good but they[re nothing like the big raves.
What about the biggest superstar hard dance dj in the world Yoji Biomehanika? This guys headlines dance valley, trance energy, senastion black, godskitchen global gathering all the biggest raves in the world, yet when he comes to australia he only plays in hard kandy to a couple of hundred people, no offence to hard kandy but yoji in rod laver arena at the end of the night would tear the place up.
Even Sydney has transmission and they are massive and we in melbourne have nothing that size.
I think thats all i wanted to say.
P.S. if anyone knows where i cand download yoji's EM i would be much appreciated and any of his other sets to, cheers. |

You know what. you.
I resent being put in the same category as Soups. |

i have put up with 4 years of hard dance so that i could one day see a lineup like the one at godskitchen.
i do agree though, the whole melbourne hard trance/dance scene has dropped off a hell of a lot in recent times. im not complaining tho', in fact i love it. |

It may have dropped off to an extent but its not as if the "fluffy" trance scene (incorporating melodic, 'uplifting', progressive, etc) has exactly taken off or grown at all...
Their biggest nights still only include stuff like 5AM at Room and Trancsend at Altitude, which are both pretty small nights when compared to how big HK, Bassstation, Bubble are or have been in the past.
Personally I love seeing acts such as Above & Beyond and Gabriel & Dresden given the main stage at events like GK, but variety is the spice of life and i would equally enjoy a set from the likes of Yoji. |
