Helena Hauff was probably the best set of them all, closely followed by Steffi! how good were the other parties across the UK? Corsica Studios was brilliant. Really laid back club, felt like I could strike up a conversation with anyone and they played the Dimitri From Paris edit of I wanna be your lover by Prince when the clock struck midnight. Turned into a bit of a sweatbox by the end though, tiny rooms! Edited January 2, 2017 by BlackHole2006 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennyhana22 Posted January 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2017 Rainbow Venues in Birmingham was pretty damn good, guys. Started in the big room with some tech-house which was ok, occasionally very good (i.e. when it was more tech, than house!), Then Pippi Ciez in the small room starting off the techno proper. He was very good. I was uncertain about Alan Fitzpatrick for the first 15 minutes of his two hour set, but after half an hour he hit his stride and the rest really was excellent. And then the Master®... Oh. My. Goodness. It's lovely to see an artist and feel unequivocally that the hype is not hype. Ben Klock's two hours were absolutely stellar. Certainly one of the best techno sets I've ever seen. Everyone in the little Blackbox room was so into it. He came, he saw, he conquered. I hope his set later last night at Motion was as good at that. I got a text from Child 1 who was there at 0347h to suggest that Mr Klock had not dropped his quality for his fourth and final set of the day! Finished off with half an hour of Hot Since 82 who, despite my being mostly indifferent to tech-house, provided a very nice end to the night. Smashing way to start the year!

Ben Klock did a pretty good set at motion, but I think Hauff and Steffi were so good that in comparison I probably thought less of his. He's definitely a techno party DJ through and through though! 1 hour ago, Mezhyp1 said: Wasn't out partying for NYE, but saw Steffi earlier in the year and the was bloody great You can never go wrong with a panorama bar DJ it seems!

Mezhyp1 Posted January 3, 2017 Report Share Posted January 3, 2017 (edited) Would be surprised not to see some of the electronic names announced for BBK playing Glastonbury. The Black Madonna, Job Jobse, Red Axes and DJ Tennis who played last year and MCDE, Daphni and Dixon who didn't but would be so well received Edited January 3, 2017 by Mezhyp1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't think of many better than Dettmann for the Friday night techno on Arcadia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to see her and the rest of your list on the farm. I'd like to see Daniel Avery again, this time with a better slot than the short arcadia set.
