I <3 Techno...

So alot of content is down, but we're getting things back up and running. I <3 Techno was amazing as it is every year, spent some time in Amsterdam, seemed like a good time to go since they're talking about changing the red light district and closing alot of coffee shops. Once again the only sets to really make a impression on me were the live acts, didn't even feel Justice really compared with last year which was live I believe.
We got a New Years Eve party happening at the SpeakEasy, you can see what that's all about over at newkinkyeve.com. Check it out if you're feeling adventurous.
2009 will have more events from the Crimson Events, starting February 15 with Illuminaughty.
Have a listen to one of our favorite Butch tracks below, if only more Calgarians appreciated these sounds...

Big thanks to OrangeTree for the capturing all of these moments as I wasn't able to see most of what was going on from the dj booth. Thanks go out to all the performers as well, everyone's contributions really made this night one to remember.

Dr.Pong & Beyond

We're back from our visit to Berlin, with a mini-mix and memories of I Love Techno in Ghent. While in Berlin we took our drinking to the streets with our friends The Operator & Emmett. Later in the week we did some clubbing @ The Watergate, a minimal club with a riverside view, John Selway was playing, he's always on point. The next day we were off to Brussels for I Love Techno. Justice stole the show with which may have been their first live set, god I hope it was recorded. But we managed to catch Klaxons, Goose, Simian Mobile Disco, Trentmoller, Stephan Bodzin, Alter Ego, & holy fuck Erol Alken! He played before Justice & totally destroyed the dancefloor again & again with things like his intro which was a fresh take on Micheal Jackon's Thriller I believe. He also played Brodinksi's remix of The Shoes which is included in this mini-mix we dropped at a Ping Pong club in East Berlin called Dr.Pong.
Got some shows confirmed that I'm excited about, little party for some peeps that have a birthday around now @ Soda. this Thursday. A Old Scotsmen Ball this Saturday, and In Order To Danse has just been confirmed for New Years Eve @ The Ship & Anchor.
Enjoy the mix
