Tracklist: I Love Kiksu 4th anniversary event
I Love Kiksu was a very well organized and successful trance event - there aren’t too many of those these days. I was surprised how early the dance floor got crowded - I was expecting people to stay home longer after such a warm day, but it seems you can always trust trance fans ;)
Jokke started the night with 100% vinyl set, plenty of great oldish tracks and fresh releases. A great warmup from the guy who has been keeping the scene warm for god-knows-how-many years. It was great to get to play after him. After a couple of trys with pretty new tunes I decided to count on tracks with were a bit more familiar. Not surprisingly, a bit more technoish tracks like Boogie Nights and Surin remix didn’t go down too well, but I was happy of the reaction to the proggy and even houseish tracks like Mystify remix and Sweet Harmony re-make. It’s good to see that you don’t need 145bpm energy trance anymore in a trance event to push the spirit high and get the hands in the air. 127bpm and well fitting bassline will do just fine (Jaytech/Dinka, anyone? ;). DJ DNA finished the night well with his stage charisma and driving two hour trance set in a true I Love Kiksu stylé :)
