[CHI] APR 4 : BASSGOESBOOM w/ CASPA & SUPERISK

[entroemcee]

fucking buttscratcher. tuneage.

while i understand the philosophic debate of both sides of the trading/pirating debate... you have to respect the unstated rules of the game. Respecting all the nuances down the finest detail is what keeps things balanced and sorted.

Some dj's want their sets released... other don't. You can argue promotion is promotion... but to me this whole thing is a win-win situation. Caspa's set is ridiculous and you know this. Superisk and Timid's set are equally invasive and you probably DO NOT know this. So Caspa not releasing his set for download is actually beneficial to those who did not attend and to the dj's that did not reach you specifically YET. You can only imagine how the night went after that... and you've got enough downloaded material to fantasize.

I actually stand by the fact that the 10-12:30 slots are where some weird magic happens. Tim and Chris got heads out early in the club and always do. Thats a feat in and of itself. People who are ready to man up for 4 hours of bass exploration.

When Caspa or any other headliner comes to your town... and they most likely will... you can check them for yourself. Risk, Phaded, Timid, Shiva, and etcera that have represented at BGB... it may be awhile. And they represent a very interesting perspective on dubstep. And guess what... you have the ability to check it out on mp3.

Trust that the headliners wreck it and will continue to.

Respect the ecosystem, yea?

On another note there's seriously not enough room to bruck, Lava is so small.

Step 1: Get Skream
Step 2: Move it to SONOTHEQUE

I was there.. I enjoyed both of those guys sets (AYO Tech, 3 Kings remix!!)

once again, tho, the point is missed. the folks at lava take good care of the partiers, have been supporting the BGB effort longtime, and the club manager has been a Chicago staple for longer than i can remember. at this point, even tho i am not from chicago (they treat us right EVERY time we make the drive up from indy, tho), i feel a certain amount of loyalty to and love for lava, yanno?

i too have been frustrated when the club is rammed and there is no room to move, but there is something amazing about it at the same time, yes? packed in with a few hundred of your sweaty drunk friends, freakin out to the tunes. the best, really.

Step 2: Move it to SONOTHEQUE

this will more than likely never happen.

True I have trouble weaving through the crowd without spilling my drink or getting felt up; but the full house makes the show... Sono is like 5 times as big at lava and I think it would be sad to see our happy family spreadout into little chat sessions in the far corners of that lounge. Also... staff, family, love and support aside... Sono? for real... have you even been there... I don't like my DJs behind glass... I also like to get buzzed off my $5 drinks.

Not hating on Sono but the club was definitely structured around a different business model than Lava. Not saying I don't like the place but I think that what happens at Lava could never happen the same way there.

I would love to see that place full and bouncin' but BGB won't be the ones doin' it.
