I've read about that place. I would go just to check out the sound system. Hearing any psy in there would be incredible, and Atmos with his new album will be pure magic.

Atmos played very old stuff, i could recognize much from Klein Aber Doctor and it was great when he played "Drums Dont Stop"... spirit has the BEST SOUND i ever heard in ny... you know what? the best sound i ever heard anywhere. every beat warm, round, thumping and full of energy, the volume was loud but not too loud, just perfect. the place has its own deco, not really allowing any psy-freedom to decorate it with. a weird diamond shaped light matrix that descends a few times from the ceiling into the middle of the floor. too bad there was a very low turnout of people and the event ended at 5am...
Atmos was amazing though, last time he was here did not go to well... this time he was the man!

This is strange. You are the second person I have seen say that they thought the system was great. I did not feel the same way. The sound system was good, better than the systems at most of the parties I have been to. But it didn't live up to the hype. It was loud, and had lots of bass....but the bass was slightly distorted much of the night. In general, the sound was not so clear. The system did not create a *clear* stereo image upfront, either.
Overall the party was okay. Okay vibe. I don't ususally enjoy progressive sounds, but I did enjoy parts of Atmos, Noma's and Gavin's sets. The place is spacious. They really needed to shut those damn lights off, and keep that UFO thing up! Would have been nice if they bathed the place in black light and psychedelic artwork ;-).
Caveats: I am anal about sound, so YMMV. Maybe the sound would have been better if I was further up front. The furthest up front I got was the front 1/3 mark of the dancefloor, center. And, again, the system was good, just not great, IMHO. Mood has a profound effect on our perception, so maybe my feeling about the sound system reflected my mood. Who knows.
cONTRAST THIS WITH THE SYSTEM AT eCLIPTIC'S Hux Flux/Neuromotor party. It could have had some more sub-bass, but the sound was so crystal clear! No distortion, sharp highs, clean mids, very well EQ'd, and the best stereo image I can recall hearing at a party! It was pure bliss for me, I would just close my eyes and I could feel the sounds flying around during Hux Flux's set. Floating melodies during Electrofunk's dj set flew above me. I was @ about the front 1/4 mark. I don't recall ever "feeling" the sound so well without the aid of LSD.
PS I was not on any psychedelics at either party. |

I am sad I missed this. I wanted to go just didn't have the money. Thanks for the review - I was wondering how it went.
