ok guys here is the breakdown of the events that happened:
reaced echo lake abt 6pm friday evening, set up camp and headed straight to both the stages to help out on any work that i could help with....
daya's vision of decorating the place was simply perfect............ i could not have suggested anything to be different........... just perfect.
well the sound reached a lil late but the sound was up and ready, (did i mention bloody powerful) by about 11.00....
tdc played for an hour and then i managed to squeeze in some music from 12.00 till abt 1.30 am.
fria came in next and just blew everybody away with her female energy and dark taste in psy music.
was too tired then so went to sleep......
woke up at 6.30 to come watch polaris's dj set but our friend was unfortunately dead tired from his flight so i had to jump in again and played from 7 am till abt 12.30....... was a lil longer than i had imagined.
obviously had to pass out after that cause i was drained...........
sat night started of with luis, then allen, laryn, tdc and then the main artists.........
i only got to the main stage at abt 1.30 when polaris kicked of with his live set just making everyone smile......... his dj set came next which in my opinion i preferred simply cause the man makes zero mistakes with his mixes.......it was difficult to spot his mix even to someone who knows the tracks well.
penta was next and just hid all the light that there was on the main dancefloor.......... darkness like ive never seen before, then again i could have felt that for other reasons..........
CPU came on after penta......... it seemed to me like this man his foot in the the electrcity socket.......... cause his charge just would not die........ man this guy just ruled the night...... and the day since he stopped at about 9 am......
nikka was next............. i was shocked by him cause i thought he will make the morning more fluffy but he held strong and continued the damage that cpu did to us.......
so basically i just dint stop dancing
both cpu and nikka's dj sets were just perfect....... but polaris's mixing was unmatched.....
then came contra vs bezerx
phew these guys must have had a nightmare just wondering how they could keep the party going after having such legends playing before them, but thats exactly what they did.........
wow gadi........ i was seriously impressed
the acid had worn off by then so i left to go sleep a little before gadi finished.
all in all i couldnt ask for anything more............. just perfect

yes indeed a great time although the first night was great the second night was out of there just non stop i cant even explain what that lineup did for me not to mention everyone else who buy the way made up the best crowd ive ever experienced really felt the energy as a whole. allen plays some really good stuff but i am dissapointed with his mixing about 50% of the time (except at gaian mind) although ive only seen him a handfull of times he still did a good job of getting the night started then lauryn came on with that wonderful ocelot track and continued to relentlessly make us kick up dust. Very impressed. polaris live was a good change of pace from the brain smashing on friday night and his funky yet demented dj set was flawless i didnt know if it would be matched but it was for hours and hours penta !!!!!!!!!!! and when cpu came on the space had cleared a bit and it was a more personal setting but thanks to those who shared that experience with me simply wonderful ive never felt so connected to a group of people of which i knew few and sometimes none..
excellent party tdc
thank you

What an incredible event. The deco was awesome, really felt like you were on a different planet. The Chill-out was very well constructed, great music being played there at all times. Unfortunatly my psychedelically inebriated head missed most of the music on the mainstage on saturday, but what I did hear(Penta Live, TDC sets, Mekkanika) was fucking awesome. Sound was crispy clear, wind added flavor to the bass. The rain was refreshing.TDC put all their hearts and energy into this and it certainly showed, thank you so much!
We are all visitors to this time, this place. We are just passing through. Our purpose here is to observe, to learn, to grow, to love... and then we return home. |

all main acts perform the astonishing. All DJs blast the floor for sure, nothing wrong just perfect. everyone include the participants. Max with his laserworks toning everyone appearances with his string instalation is very new for me not to mention Lunasamadelic string works valunteering the scene. I dance my a$$ OFF all the time, but the most strong trance set that driven me out of my world was TDC set. I remember it was only about ten people dance at that moment of the last day and add-up a bit more. Too bad Nik© did not made it to play his set in the fest (the only set that I have plan not to miss with any kind of excuses), hope you feel better bro!
Over all thanks to everyone that have help the deco and also giving the energy support to Khusuk Live set.

...........for all of those who read my rant and rave on NYC 604 some time back about the absurd infighting among the miniscule NY psytrance community ........
THANK YOU, TDC, for absolutely restoring my faith!! Such amazing good energy, and such incredibly high production values.... The sound was unbelievable, the art amazing..... Even Sayed, the owner of the campground, was full of good vibes!
These babies are my heros.....
So much has already been written that my words can only repeat the praise... but one thing i can say: nowhere in the world have i ever danced for 15 hours straight - from Luis's incredible early evening set on Saturday, all the way thru Surrender vs. Beserx, at noon on Sunday, without a stop (except a few minutes of Polaris's live chillout)....!!!
Again, massive respect to TDC and please call on me to promote your events anytime!!
My only sadness is that we didn't see more faces there.... what a great opportunity to have introduced people to what psytrance really is.
Still, that being said.....the crowd was so wonderful, like a real family ... the way it should be.....
A beautiful end to my first summer in NYC! |

Liquid Vision is just too right when he said that the rain was refreshing. Lying on the pier I wondered whether the droplets falling on my face were rain or some sort of liquid induced manifestation of the beats that were slapping me in the face. again and again.
Lauryn your music turns me on.
THANK YOU CPU, Polaris, TDC. Allen i enjoyed where your set developed into at the end. Cot' damn Penta you don't stop. I literally came to your enchanting opus. literally.
The deco was inubriating. I walked into some of the pieces several times. I felt like Mary Poppins jumping into chalk drawings in the park (anyone remember that scene?). Climbing into an artist drawn reality with endless possibilities.
Chay you are beautiful.
Thank you for giving us a space to get to know each other and ourselves a little better. It's a funny thing to dance in a room full of people you do not know but that you feel connected to...
bila nastoyashaya skazka!
