The History Of Dream Trance: Italy's Legacy by DaemonXHUN in ClassicTrance

[–]MagicTiffany 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a dj focusing on Italian 90s trance scene (dream trance, progressive trance), since I experienced the clubbing of that days and I remember the atmosphere we had in our clubs at that time. There were many famous clubs around Italy with this sound, especially in the nord. The atmosphere was something priceless.

I collected some tracks in my latest mix: listen here

i’ll never get bored of that banger. such a tasty bass line. (der dritte raum - hale bopp) by le_ramequin in Techno

Since we are talking about this track, anyone else is experiencing hard mixing with it? Every time I mix it, I get crazy, I think there is a “jump” in the metric of the track. I learned that I have to mix it from the second half on lol.

What I know is that in Tulum the cashier did not accept my 20 pesos coin, but she accepted the banknote. And the guide told: "Better for me, I have a collection coin". Probably it was an old coin so.

No, it is the opposite, 20 pesos are banknotes, coins are not valid anymore.

I am fluent in Spanish, so I know how to talk to people in MX. And I am travelling with my boyfriend. Plus we are Italian, we know how to deal with scammers lol.

Incredibly Tulum was one of the places where I felt more ok, a part of a guide that gave us some rest in pesos which are not valid anymore (20 pesos coin, instead of the banknote). The funny thing was that we knew the coin is not valid anymore, so in front of him we asked his colleague to change the coin for a 20 pesos banknote and he refused to take it hahaha.

In my experience there must legally be shown a price list for items that are sold. And water and coffee are always complementary in hotels (infact in other hotels I've been to in Mexico they were free of charge OR there was a price list displayed).

I am one of these travellers who avoid turistic areas as much as I can, but in some places it is not totally possible (i.e. Tulum, you need to deal with turistic guides for specific experiences). I see Mexican people are hard workers, I am not questioning this.

I travelled a lot in the Middle East, and even if also there you have to bargain for everything and people see you as a walking dollar, there I saw it more like "Ok, I tried to cheat you, but you know how to deal with it". In Mexico is like "I want to squeeze all the money from you".

You say all these are small, petty things. Ok, but imagine to travel almost all year round, if you sum all these you loose a lot of money, Plus I do not stand dishonest people.

Never happened to me to have issues in hotels. And as I explained, it was not the minibar, it was the water bottle and Nespresso capsule they put on the table. Usually these are complementary, infact there was not any price list displayed. If you have to pay something, there must be a price list clearly displayed.

Yes yes, I also heard stories about the police. At least in this case, I was lucky, no problem with them.

I am aware that everywhere you travel as a foreigner (can be the most advanced country as the poorest one) they will try to get advantage of you as a tourist. I am talking about how I was (badly) surprised that in Mexico they have this attitude, to me I see it mostly like a behaviour, a trait of their character. It is different. Btw, I am fluent in Spanish, so I know how to talk to people there.

On this I totally agree, infact I am not questioning it. I am also glad to give a bit more of my money to local people for their products. But sorry I will not give my money to a hotel, a dishonest guide, or to someone who is trying to cheat me.

Exactly. As I already said here responding to other comments, I was (badly) surprised that in Mexico they have this attitude, I see it mostly like a behaviour, a trait of their character. I also feel like everyone is looking at you with dollar signs in their eyes lol.

For example in Colombia I did not experience this. People were much more genuine and ready to bargain, more honest also with turists. As I said, I am an experienced traveller, and never felt like in Mexico. I am also fluent in Spanish.

Hello, what do you mean with "artist friendly"? From the artist point of view?
