100% from all the people hmmmmmm (UTOPIA)never happened never will be!
You ve missed a point my friend...
I do support them,
that is why I am pointing some things here that me and other people noticed, in order to see a better result next time!
That is support,
by saying yes everything was perfect and nice and congratulations is silly
and sounds like I am trying to get a free pass next year.
I am not one of these people
I say what I see,
I support with my presence
and I add en extra smile to the gathering.
I don't think that I am spreading rumors or I wanna harm the fest,
I was just honest
I hope that there are still people appreciating truth.
Where does the love and unity goes when everyone has an opinion???
The only way for peace and unity is truth,
I said mine and I became the enemy!
Great message guys. |

elfish as you can see we don't
excuse nobody I see the forest not the tree
that means I count the all image of the fest
no if it is a lot of dust or if the water is hotter
I can be in saouna as about the cleaning ladies I say again they did their best if you learn to make your shit to a golden bowl with a smell of levanta is your problem you were in a fest in nature not in megaro you can say what ever you want
but the complaints you said are ptesmata in front
of the all fest at the first day I said the same thing like you for the dust but I didn't find it so tragic and if they if the orginizers spoil water every hour we probably make mad so mayby you had problem again
anyway have fun and wait antul next summer

totally agreed!I saw your first post speaking about the chill out stage,sure Direct Connection were great!Terra9 also,Alkan Ruller and Simon Baring!I will say it again to the organizers you put some greek djs to play chill out when they don't have any idea about chill out music,just because they are known djs in dance territory but sure no experience for chill out.Now another mistake you put all the greeks to play first and then the international.You could mix the greeks with internationals so they could have the chance to play for a biger audience than 10-20 people..Sure I am refering for those greek djs who realy deserve it,those who made the difference and they didn't play just some "amanedes"

Moonsun you make me think you are unable to follow a conversation.
I said nothing about a bigger festival,
I said that this one was as big (= important) as other festivals and you are underestimating the effort by saying it was small!
At this point I am with the organization side (I had no idea we had to pick sides in a conversation) not you.
2nd as I said, such efforts can get better and better by pointing to the people who organise it what could be better.
I am not shiting in a golden bowl,
but I eat no shit also.
The guys had nothing to prepare but the bookings, the line up and the decoration, I've been on the Mountains and never complaint about the toilet or shower because I was in the middle of nowhere and the only dirt I had on me was sand and swet, so It was ok.
In a camping full of cars, passing by all the time trashing the air we breath under the trees, with all facilities ready to use, yes I expect more.
The artists who didn't play were more than 3,
the security was pretty hostile and said no sorry after seeing the fest-bracelet,
the chill out was left on the campers to make it a chill out place, running under the first spot with shadow,
After Saturday morning noone picked the trash till sunday morning, allthough the chill out stage was full of people.
And I have more.
I didn't stuck on these details,
I had fun,
but if I want something better next year,
I have to point these things out.
Is it sooooooooo hard to understand what I am saying?????????
We have to say what wasn't nice to help them get better, we are not helping by being blind.
Don't you want to see 10.000 ppl next year???
I want!
That's why I am saying that in public,
and in a forum that the organizers read,
I don't wanna harm them!
I support every effort taking place in Greece,
I want the scene to be pure and grow bigger!
If it's still blury what I am saying
then we have a great communication problem.
Take care

hello all,just returned from the fest.i had a very good time,saw lots of friends that hadnt seen for a while,listen some very good artists
about the dust,in every break the organizaton people were throwing water in the dancefloor(yesterday the part in front of the stage was almost turned to mud.but guys,you were in a festival in nature,what did u expect?to wipe the dancefloor so there wont be dust?
other than that,showers and toilets were ok enough,clean most of the time and the ladies and guys whoi were cleaning them were very good,helpfull and funny
naow about music,satyrday was the day with earsugar,ritmo,quantize and shadow fx being very very good.also PAUSE was a project i didnt knew and i was totally blown away by their music.also,zen mechanics,freakulizer and quantum and AMD were my personal favorites.
overall,i think it was a great festival,with big potential to hapen again next year
cheers to all

Well, here we are after this crazy festival! The most positive vibes i've ever seen, trully amazing! I had a very good time, i listen VERY GOOD MUSIC, i meet old friends and new from all over the world and i'm completely happy! Who cares if U-recken and other dj's don't play? who cares if the timetable was wrong? i didn't stop dancing for 4 days, not only me but many people!! Congratulations to Psytrance.Gr for this massive project. We will be glad to repeat it next year!
  So you think you can Trance ? |

Just got back from the festival as well.
Overral i have to say the festival was really good. The best after the Samothraki festivals as far as i am concerned (you can take out the 3rd one of course, which was good but we all know there was a big problem).
I also agree with elfish, dust was a problem, cars in fest area could be dangerous eventhough nothing bad happened, toilets wasnt that clean but i wouldnt expext anything better in a place that crowded (its not easy), music started late, but that happens to many festivals, chillout stage neaded more shadow and lastly, the cancellations were quite important.
Talamasca, U-recken, Cosmic tone and Serious Isness are my favourites (i am not sure if serius isness actually played, but i was there the time they were supposed to play and they didnt, also asked other people and nobody heard them).
This last paragraph is not about complains, just pointing out things that could be better next time. Not sure anything can be done about the toilets, but shadow in the chill out stage is sth that can surely be done.
Also i m not sure but maybe putting one of those green carpets on the floor of the main stage could be helpfull about the dust problem.
About the cancellations sure its not very nice, but we all have to consider that its not easy to book so many artists as problems can occur with the flights, the timetable etc, and also these things cost real money. Actually they cost A LOT of real money. If the pre-sale didnt go as planned, a guess everyone of us would think about cutting down the expences a bit, as otherwise one can be ruinned by an event that big.
Now for the good part. I had a great time, the artists that played really did their best, as i even enjoyed the music that artist that i dont really like played in the festival. The organisers did a great job in many departments. I had no problem with my tickets, they got the music going and kept it for four days as promiced.
Dont forget that this is Greece and half of the festivals turn to disasters. The organisers did a really serius job dealing with the authorities, no problems with the police, with the sound etc. The security never hassled me as well. Food and water was provided in very logical prices, and you could also fill your bottles with water virtually from anywhere in the camping for free (imagine that in Greece there are indoor parties were tabs are shut down so that people have to buy water all the time. Also nothing was stollen in the festival, which is a credit to the people that went there. Another suggestion could be to have a "lost and found" department (maybe there was and i missed it).
All in all a GREAT festival. Good organisation, very good vibes from all the people, really good artists, nice place, none of the usual problems that we have in Greek festivals. Generally i think it was the 3rd best festival that happened in Greece (take Sonica out as i missed it).
Congrats to the organisers , They have my support and i hope they did well monewise (they deserve it).
I m already waiting for the next one. If you can solve these little problems i mentined before we might be talking about the best festival in Greece.
P.S. I de like to hear what people from foreign countries have to say about the fest. I think their views will be positive and i also their opinions are important for all of us and especially for the promoters.

Well, i'm back from the festival too. I had
a really good trance experience.
I have enjoyed till the end.
Although I did not hear PLEIADIANS, I dance a lot with, FRECHBAX, TRISTAN, CHROMOSOME,
ANDROMEDA, SOLAR FIELDS, QUANTUM, X-NOIZE,
EARSUGAR, PROMETHEUS, HALLUCINOGEN (the master)
and many more.
Also the dj set from YOUNGER BROTHER, SHPONGLE were the highlight from the festival.
I hope the best in future and a festival near Athens!

I just get back home a couple of hours...
I can say that i had a great time to Aurora.
For sure some things could be better, as the dust problem on the main stage, or more shadows etc.
The important for a fest things, like sound, lights etc was amazed for the Greek reality:
More than 100KW clear sound, nice lights, killer work on the videowall.
Camping area was beautiful water was in every corner for free (so it's silly those complains about the 1 euro price for water)
Toilets was most (but not all) of the time clean, cleaning ladies was working their best.
Is important to say that the other campers
(families etc) was treating us with their smile and was never said not even one complain about the noise. Imagine that they didn't sleep for 4 days!!!
Now about the security crew, i thing that they do their job in low profile, they didn't disturb no one with no reason.
As about music, all artists they gave their best they can. For the cancellations from some artists, i can't blame no one, as we don't know what really happens about the deal they have with the organizers.
Generally, ok, Aurora had some little detailed problems, but not so many for say that was bad organized.
The crowd also was nice, many older people, many friends, lot of smiles, good vibrations.
I don't have something more to say,
I had a great time to Aurora.
A big bravo to Teo and psytrance.gr crew for their effort.
I hope to continue next and next and next and for many more years, better each time
and is also to our hands for help to make Aurora festival equal festival with the big festivals of the trance world.
peace + light
