a short tour through the centre

Did we mention that there is so much to do, and so little time? This year, more than ever, most parties boast a jam-packed house. Big line-ups all over the place, where to begin? The Supperclub turns out to be a good starting point. People are having desert, just getting ready to get off the comfy beds and try their luck on the dancefloor. No worries they, because the Buzzin’ Fly / Misco crew (Bent Watt, Justin Martin and Charles Webster) are about to do their deep house thing. Shortly before we leave the building, the party is on in both rooms.

Next stop, Paradiso: Flamingo Nights @ Paradise. Fedde le Grand’s Flamingo imprint is rapidly gaining popularity. It’s Fedde’s buddy Funkerman performing a dj set in the Main Room while the German funkateer Mousse T is in full control with his Peppermint crew. It’s a cold night, and people waiting in line to get in huddle up to stay warm. Just a couple more minutes before they enter the impressive venue, and lucky for them, the heat is on inside.

Unfortunately, we are on an ambitious schedule, and after a short trip to the west side of the centre, we are about to relight our fire at the Space Disco Inferno at the Westerunie / Westerliefde. We get our groove on with our Norwegian friends Prins Thomas and Todd Terje who are in charge of the ‘Diskomiks’, and everyone in the room seems to agree with their intentions to dance the night away. Charles Webster is the man for the last few ours, and in the other room it’s the All Is One posse, starring Andy Barlow (Lamb) amongst others. But after a quick peak we’re off to our final destination for tonight. Richie Hawtin’s Contakt show at the Sand…
