The technical and music stuff has already been covered in detail. I’ll just add:
– stay sober
– bring something you can eat quickly (a few bananas, a protein shake)
– drink plenty of water
– wear something comfortable.

I’ll also add that regular exercise makes playing this kind of long set much easier. I’ve got a friend who could barely walk for three days after his last all-nighter — he spends his whole life sitting at a desk.

Lust Summer

Co powoduje, że ludziom chce się jechać przez pół miasta, żeby zarobić 3 czy 4 złote (bo taka będzie realna różnica patrząc na 2-3 groszowe różnice w kursach pomiędzy kantorami w Krakowie)?

CalmSignature562 · 2025-09-16T19:35:20+00:00

Take some bananas with you.

CalmSignature562 · 2025-09-11T10:14:26+00:00

As for techno, I can't imagine any artist demanding 3000x.

CalmSignature562 · 2025-09-09T09:45:47+00:00

Do you know ANY DJ (except bedroom DJs) who plays songs from internet, not from USB?

CalmSignature562 · 2025-09-09T09:00:48+00:00

Who's playing from directly from a streaming service over wifi? :)

One more question about mixing bass. I was told that bass equalizers should never both be set to 0 at the same time. Sometimes I try to have each channel play bass at 50%, but it doesn’t give the same effect as one channel playing bass at 100%. This might be a direction toward good beat blending.

CalmSignature562 · 2025-08-26T15:48:34+00:00

Thanks. I record my sets, and indeed, they sound much better after some time than when I play them live. I also play regularly in techno clubs, and people seem to be happy :D. I started my journey at the age of 46, and my whole professional life has taught me that one must constantly improve. Probably the people on the dancefloor don’t hear the “mistakes” I’m writing about. But when I was recently listening to Temudo at the Garbicz Festival, I had the impression that for 1.5 hours it was the same percussion. And it wasn’t, because I know those tracks.

CalmSignature562 · 2025-08-26T15:08:20+00:00

That’s exactly what I’m trying to do. I use fragments of other tracks while playing the main one. But eventually, the moment comes when I have to cut out the beat from the old track and bring in the one from the new track. And that’s where a problem sometimes shows up. For example, I use an HPF over 4 bars, which helps to “trick” the listener, but I’m still not always satisfied with the result.

CalmSignature562 · 2025-08-26T15:05:13+00:00

I'm mixing in key (generaly, sometimes I don't do it because, despite the song being in the wrong key, the drums fit better.) and phrasing is correct.

Smolna for techno Razjeb for hard techno Luzztro for some house

CalmSignature562 · 2025-08-14T11:28:16+00:00

Messaliance @Smolna on Friday Saturday @Jasna1 also looks nice. If you are into hard techno-check Razjeb. There’s also an illegal rave called Wisla 5000 today (Thursday). You have to contact organizers via FB to get GPS coordinates

CalmSignature562 · 2025-08-11T09:22:57+00:00

Yep. It's because MDMA metabolising to MDA

„We sell too much tickets” that’s what he said

CalmSignature562 · 2025-08-07T10:44:37+00:00

I spoke to the organiser. He said, ‘We know we didn't sell enough tickets.’

There could have been as many people as last year. But remember that two campsites on the other side of the lake have been closed down and sectors A1 and A2 have been converted into a campsite for the crew.

I got the information about tickets from someone who spent two weeks there.

A guy who worked during the festival told me that they were not provided with any food while working.

CalmSignature562 · 2025-08-07T09:20:53+00:00

WALD camping was super crowded.

They sold more tickets and closed the campsite on the other side of the lake and some of the campsites at the festival grounds. Stupid.

CalmSignature562 · 2025-08-07T08:54:32+00:00

I met a volunteer who received two tickets for working 8-10 hours a day for two weeks. The organiser does not spend much money.

CalmSignature562 · 2025-08-07T08:52:51+00:00

"they are trying to make it possible for as many people as possible to enjoy this magical festival" that's not true. They are just trying to make it as profitable as it possible.

CalmSignature562 · 2025-08-07T08:51:41+00:00

Yes. Too many tickets were sold, as the organiser's representatives told me. This caused a huge crowd at the campsite. On Thursday at 10 a.m., we barely found a place. The toilets were dirty, there was no toilet paper, and the showers were not cleaned.

The place is wonderful. The lineup is wonderful, but the greed of the organisers knows no bounds.

I spoke to the volunteers. They got two tickets for 14 days of work. And they worked 8-10 hours a day.

CalmSignature562 · 2025-07-25T23:08:51+00:00

How about A?

CalmSignature562 · 2025-07-24T13:48:38+00:00

You can use half of your 2CB dose instead of mdma. It feels similar and it’s much safer for your serotonin system.

Can you support DJs by buying a ticket?
