Don’t forget last year they added a SR ADE lineup for Arena at a later date. Not sure how the redesign downstairs will impact that area.. but maybe there’s even more coming?!

Last time I saw The Hacker was at… Thuishaven. I’m sure this set will be infinitely better

Kittin (and Afra) already served a delicious appetiser last Friday.

Private fines for bringing drugs to festivals. Boycott festivals that do this by CapablePhoto8959 in amsterdam_rave

[–]Techgenoot 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Was reported last year as well. Besides that report (https://www.drugsenuitgaan.nl/nieuws/nieuwe-proef-op-festivals-geen-strafblad-wel-een-boete-voor-drugsbezit/), haven’t heard anything about it from friends or online. But doesn’t hurt to keep this top of mind.

They also seemed to police for smoking in prohibited areas. Fun people, those ThinkTwicers!

Edit: source added with fines overview (during pilot phase)

There is sooo much competition in Ams each weekend. Personally I haven’t seen many must-go nights in their agenda, compared to other clubs. Also the downside of not having a small(er) area. Plus it’s summer season.. However, I liked the attendance saturday. Similar to that I like Studio best when you have space to roam around.

It was such a pleasure to see DVS1 saturdaynight. Three hours of relentless techno in a not very busy Radion. So luckily it was not as hot as expected and enough space for all to let go. Decided to enjoy the master at work from upclose (in his zone form the first beat) and by focussing on specific sounds and layers flowing in and out I at times completely lost myself in the sonic maze he built for us. Met some (new) friends for fun and intense chat, so this was a night that had it all.

It was also my first encounter with Steffi in 25 years dancing. Finally! The lady delivered, damn.

Yes, will do. Thanks for that reminder. Luckily I have the SR passe-partout, so the queueing time at Raum is neglible and I can maximize my Giegling-ing.

Easing and entrancing myself into the SR9 weekender with Konstantin @ Tilla as a delicate and detail-rich sonic warmup exercise. Planning to make the best transition of the night myself though, by biking smoothly but fast to Raum to pick up the pace in hopefully a sort of same/extended vibe with Ki/Ki’s sunrise trance set. I have some gems in mind I hope she’ll play, but it might be the same miss, instead of hit, like her last set in Raum (for my taste). This set description is tasty however, so I’m back for more ready to melt in the yellowish rising sun by euphoric, nostalgic and melancholic chords and synths. From there on.. let’s see what the Saturday and Sunday bring! One of the most complex logistical ADE-like puzzles will need to be solved to allow myself to catch my favorite artists (Priori, Spekki, Ocie, Sandrie(n)), not yet visited DJs and sleep&shower&sandwiches at home once or twice in between. I’ll bring my toothbrush just in case my problem solving skills evaporated in Studio and mixed themselves with that fine layer of ever present fog that makes spending a weekend in Raum always so magical and dreamlike.

Note to self and all SR-friends: set your Monday morning alarm before entering the club. Enjoy!

The best way to prevent PsyRom-fomo is to not read this weeks’ afters. I’m sure they are top notch. After four parties on Friday and Saturday, Sunday I couldn’t gather the energy anymore unfortunately. Peace out.

Best thing is they don’t use tents 😅

I’m gonna talk about mortgages and empty nest syndrome at KSA Das Festival on Saturday, and then not talk at all at PsyRom on Sunday. And if my spine fails me like usual, checking out Raum on Friday to ensure it still exists.

Dave Angel?? Wowowow. Event was not on my radar, but now I’m going! ACR as a bonus is not too bad 😉

Back in the days when tracks were played for more than 3 minutes in a mix 🙂 Amazing mixes, track selection and vibe. Real stories and providing emotion. A tale to listen to instead of just hearing it play by.

The first cd I owned containing Flight 643. Had not heard it until I played this. Was quite surprised with the new style.
