Re: Report : Digweed @ Bedrock 10th Birthday (Matter)

well, i just landed back home in calgary. talk about a blur of a trip. i still don't even have words for how awesome friday night (and well, WELL into saturday) was.

digweed at several points during the night had me losing it completely. there werent words for what he threw down. utter madness! i got to chat with him at the end (the security were being not so discrete about their desire for us to get the fuck out of the club). told him it was worth the flight from calgary and more, to which he said a big thanks.

thought it was funny when he came on the mic after the last track, which he kinda just faded out...and was like "thanks. i just can't play anymore". think that was the club shutting him down, cause he obviously wanted to keep going!

huge thanks to everyone i met, andy, greg, simon, mo, chris, and anyone i'm forgetting. great group, really looked out for me, being half jet lagged and not used to such an experience.

i will be back!


more later. my 9 and half hour flight back has pretty much destroyed me lol. my back and feet were screwed up after the show, but the flight put me over the top. a hot tub and a beer are in order.

glad you got back safe you were a really star and a great hit with the ladies

i dont think i would of been able to go on much further when he stopped as my feet had stopped working and are still sore now

diggers did sound gutted he had to stop it seemed the club couldnt get the lights on quick enough etc

get the photo's up owd lad!

Imense night, digweed really played well. I've seen better, but for a 10year set it was top notch all night.

Shame it couldn't have continued another 3 hours as I think Digweed had planned. I suspect those 3 extra hours would have been something else, something to really tell your Grandkids about.

Matter might be the best club in London, shame it;s a souless concrete shopping center.

It would have been GU 2 right?

[foreks]

Re: Report : Digweed @ Bedrock 10th Birthday (Matter)

Wow
U were at Matter and not Heaven right?

Matter.

... out of interest what Digweed sets do you like Foreks ??
For many the mixing was seemless and the blend of tracks (new & old) absolutely inspired. I remember on commenting to Chunky how fresh the old stuff sounded - music can be timeless and the renaissance/NE/Communicate tracks are still awesome today.
Dunno what you were expecting mate ... but sorry you didn't enjoy things.

expected some schedule, programming? I know that was a tiresome set and a celebration, but for me to be honest sounded like a random compilation.


I am probably one of the the oldest Digweed chasers around here, got all his available sets and have to tell you I'm disappointed.

however, I missed my scheduled plane and took another late BA flight to Heathrow. took a direct taxi around midnight to Matter and was rather tired.

best regards to all dudes from around the dj's booth I've got to see at any Digweed gig from years.

especially those from August Amnesia night

Re: Report : Digweed @ Bedrock 10th Birthday (Matter)

I actually like the way he placed the tracks. I thought he was just going to play his usual set (The Tracks He's Playing At The Moment) and then spent the last few hours playing a load of the older tracks. Which to be honest i don't really like. I liked the fact he mixed it up a bit through the night. They didnt seem out of place to me.

I had a great night. Meeting people from here was a bonus. It was nice meeting Simon, Adam, Jeff, Andy H & D'Zone. I much prefer spending my time with people who are enthusiastic about the seine and these guy's definitely where enthusiastic. No doom & gloom about it being better in the good old days. I enjoyed every minute i was in there. It really was an amazing night, that just fueled my existing enthusiasm.

Re: Report : Digweed @ Bedrock 10th Birthday (Matter)

Well said chunky ... it was a night that really re-lit my enthusiasm for the music and it showed just how many timeless tracks there are - fuck those Communicate-era tracks sounded awesome on that system.

Respect to JD ... unfortunately Sasha's lazy, if he did a similiar night I don't think I'd be able to cope with just how good the music would be !!

Re: Report : Digweed @ Bedrock 10th Birthday (Matter)

It would have been GU 2 right?

see the wiki entry on global for the actual reasoning. finally , they pu tit up.

has to do with how the north american releases were labeled. there are actually sasha san fran covers with 002 on em. and digweed sydney 001. oakie as 003.

Re: Report : Digweed @ Bedrock 10th Birthday (Matter)

I too loved the way he was suddenly break out into a classic track, i thought they were well placed. I remember dancing for ages to solid house tunes that i had never heard before, then suddenly Roaches came on! Genius!

[AndyH]

Re: Report : Digweed @ Bedrock 10th Birthday (Matter)

Roaches -

Im still buzzin I tell ya. Got back from work today and watched vids of the night for about half an hour! lol
