Party Vibe

to be fair the lad lives North of here and it seems relatively nearby so I can see why he is going.

if I ever decided to go to a big quasi-commercial EDM event I’d go to one in Holland due to obvious geographic proxmity and transport being cheaper.

Porter Robinson sounds more like a pint of real ale (and dissapointingly is not), and I probably only have one track by Avicii and maybe a couple by PVD.

I only got into trance at a relatively late stage and am sceptical of “Protestant Work Ethic House” – OK I will listen to it and mix it and its good well produced music but the philosophy behind it is a bit unnerving, its like ruthlessly well produced trance without the fun bit and a lot of fashion conciousness added with a ethos of “don’t enjoy yourself too much as you’ve got church tomorrow 😉

if they did a smaller version of mysteryland with our local crews here (East Anglia’s DJ’s can genuinely supply all the genres if not the “big” names) I’d be there like a shot, but for the distance most events are away from me they might as well be foreign travel anyway….

this was tweeted by local cops…

one one level there’s nothing bad or sinister here – its simply traffic cops working together to keep young drivers safe, but I can’t help but think if there weren’t so many fucking NIMBYs in this area (I don’t even blame the Police as they only enforce licensing laws, they don’t make them) then there wouldn’t be such a issue with traffic congestion and confusion over being in a unfamiliar area which is what this tweet hints at – its also another clear sign of a rich area pushing “problematic” events and their fans into a poorer one..

its now fully locked off and being evacuated…
