after missing demf last year, i was pretty pumped to go this year, even with the particularly dull paxahau lineup.
note to paxahau: there are more styles of techno than really super dull, super monotonous minimal techno! i heard one non-techno set there (jump-up set by mark moss). 2 harder-ish, but not HARD techno sets (carola and beyer) i guess there was africaa baambata and some dubstep which i luckily didn't hear any all weekend anywhere!! coming to think of it, there were several songs that i heard repeatedly, one douche of a dj played that song twice while masturbating the mixer so hard it looked retarded.
to recap. the music at the festival was dull dull dull!! highlight was the mark moss set. oh and in the midst of his set he dropped NWA's "dope man".... yow! catching up with people i don't get to see very often was awesome! met a few awesome people too.
we couldn't find shit to do on saturday night so chilled at the hotel, got the crappiest sleep because i ate like 20 sleeping pills and washed em down with jager and vodka and took hours to actually work. fun fun.
saturday's afterhours was the highlight. lineup was amazing.... highlights were woody mcbride, mike grant, elektrolyte, and ben sims. oddly evol intent and joey beltram were pretty dull. i guess beltram isn't the powerhouse he used to be, and not sure what was up with evol intent
