Im thinking of packing my bags and heading off to Europe this summer to experience some continental living.
Im probably going to head off to spain or portugal first. Ideally id like to stay in an area that has a good techno scene, any one have got any info on any good areas??
cheers mrbenn
Try Eastern Europe (Czech, Poland, Slovakia, Hungary etc.). Cheap, cheerful and fun.Quote:

Yea, thats where I'm going this summer. Going to get an Inter Railing ticket and go nuts for a couple of months. Seems to be a huge amount of quality techno out there. Any pointers, Sunil?Quote:

They only like house and shitty electro, electro house and those sorts.
The only places where u can listen to techno/hard tehcno is in free parties. But as I told you, we are little collectives doing all we can to make a scene, (at least in barcelona)
Erm, are you sure mate? I might be all the way over here in little old Ireland, but I'm pretty certain Spain is a particularly exciting place to be at the moment, Madrid especially. With the likes of Oscar Mulero, Reeko, Grovskopa, Surgeon, Gunjack, Takaaki Itoh and The British Murder Boys all playing there quite regularly. :shock:Quote:

I think you have gonne to fast talking about barcelona´s techno stuff. There are good places like APOLO or THE LOFT, that bring good people very often, and the raves party outside barcelona periphery. Inclusive underground records labels and good producers. :nono:
yea man, the loft! we can pay out the ass to see any DJ whop charges more than 3000 euros there! if you want to see rush, ruskin or folks like this in a snobby environment, got to barcelona!
MADRILEÑOS ANTIBARCELONA. :rambo:
pero RESPECT TO LAESK.
And to elaborate on this comment-if you go anywhere in Belgium-go to Ghent....They have this thing-I believe in June, called City Parade.....then in July-one HUGE festival for 10 days called 10 Days Off (www.10daysoff.be). Went last summer and had such an amazing time :)Quote:

dont come to birmingham!
we may have a few things happening, but itsa like swiiming upstream n treacley shit to get something going on.
Berlin is pretty rocking...
The loft at Barcelona. Thats all you need for Techno
The Loft is good, but they would think to bring unknown dj´s or live acts, not only famous dj´s that sometimes sucks :cool:
The Loft is pretty cool but i have to say it has one of the worst sound systems i have ever heard in a big club.
Unfortunately that´s truth man, :cry: :crackup:
Past summer I was all over Belgium and i must say i thoroughly enjoyed myself...from Brussels, to Ghent, to Antwerpen, even to Herenthals! Techno everywhere and people are into it...not to mention the excellent beer! Prague is dope as hell too...such an eerie city.
hungary.
Frankfurt in Germany for banging techno ( check these sites http://www.djamok.net, http://www.svenwittekind.com http://www.tekktribe.de events all on the time )
http://www.soundsoflj.com for most things eastern european
http://www.techno.cz again for events all over europe
and of course mutant dance
http://www.mutant-dance.clubbers.net/links.html
Yeah and Leeds rocks... bigtime
hahaha you never came to Malta guys? why all DJs want to come to play in Malta and the party people not seem interested?
I seen all pages and didn't seen any post mentioning Malta, In summer we have about 3 festivals, featuring all the BEST! not mentioning any other events where there will be wuality artists, especially lately.
Definetly I suggest Malta, the only thing is the contact me first to give you more additional information, like example if the party will be good, and soon ;) because we have to say everything, we might have parties who are poor, but we have many good ones.
Here is my e-mail for any additional info: fab@djsirround.com
:eh: :eh: surprised me guys...
Bonus my uncle lives in malta, thats another country to add to the itenary ;)
cool :lol: :clap:
lol i got finished in antwerpen. that beer man.. muahahaha 2 am rooted in alcohol wondering the streets.Quote:
