Danceteria never fails. After taking a taxi from Yle studios to DTM and driving through totally empty city I couldn’t help thinking would there be party at all going on in DTM. After all, it was the first Friday after Vappu celebrations and the taxi driver was stating that there’s no one going out tonight.
Well, luckily he was wrong. When I arrived to DTM at 00:30 the floor was full and Something Good was pounding their combination of tech-housey tunes and melodic prog tracks to an enthusiastic crowd. I started off with a bit deeper approach, moved pretty quickly to groovey tech-house tracks and dropped in some technoish numbers. DTM’s sound system is just massive and it was great to see rather minimal but groovy tunes such as Max Bett’s Different Foot make people go nuts. However, the track must have been Kaiserdisco’s brilliant Peak Tram which blew off the roof. Snare rolls are back! :)
Massive thanks to Mr.A who invited me in – it was great to return to Danceteria after such a long pause – and Heikki L, who took care of the end of the night with BIG tunes. Not to forget the people who won their Vappu tiredness and showed up – I couldn’t imagine better and more open-minded crowd as in DTM last night.
