    Intresting line-up but not as good as I had hoped for from this event - Technology arena looks a bit poo (except Outblast - that will be ****ing wicked if his Q-Base set is out to go by), and in Radical room only sets that I think would tempt me are Producer & Simon Underground, Producer's Ableton set and Andy playing hardcore techno - not enough to go all way down Swindon for though really! Far too much hardstyle imo.



    A lack of imagination in the radical room - although tbf it is quite a fresh line-up in there, just chosen too many DJ's I don't over rate - Akira, Brisk, Scorpio, Deathmachine, Addiction etc are all not worth the 4 hour mission - good DJ's as they may be and no doubt if it were closer be a dif story - big ask though to put a line-up on that would have convinced me enough to get me to go to Swindon, but thought if anyone could do it then North could - apparently not!




    Main irritation for me - NO FRENCHCORE and not enough BREAKCORE!!! = NO KAI!!!

    Also - a distinct lack of HARD TECHNO sets is an irritation.

    Scrap the hardstyle room and lets have some techno, thats what I say!!



    Still, all good to have North back on the scene - cant be a bad thing really!

    yeah but guaranteed all the glowstick waving kids will love it, even if they go just to say that have been to NORTH lol

    Hopefully this is just one line up not the sign of how its going to always be, surely things can only get better.....

    Nah Frenchcore, or rather French Tekno as it should really be known, is ****ing wicked shit - just a shame they've advertised it as being on the music policy for the Radical room but not actually booked anyone to play a set.


    In terms of what it is think the likes of Radium, or if you've heard hardtek/tribe then basically the same shit - in the words of Justin Lee Collins - "I love it, I do, I love it..."

    I'm a little confused here I obviously must have not been at North events myself...
    Kai says - Also - a distinct lack of HARD TECHNO sets is an irritation. as does Technobitch
    when we were at the void we had 1 or 2 techno sets in the Technology 2nd room which was mainly a hard trance room
    when we moved to the Emporium we did the same but moved the Technology Arena to the main room.
    when we moved to Bristol we did the same in fact when we did a couple of proper techno based nights in the 2nd room they were the most poorly attended nights - please can you clarify what you mean by hard techno sets
    Kai also says - Scrap the hardstyle room and lets have some techno, thats what I say!! -
    what hardstyle room????
    the main room or technology arena will run like this

    NICK THE KID & LOUK - hard trance
    WRAGG - techno
    Bobby V - hardtrance / hardstyle
    NOIZER & VORTEX - jumpstyle
    BRAIN OVULATION - hardstyle
    OUTBLAST - hardcore
    MZONE - hardstyle
    MARK EG - classic finish playing pretty much whatever he wants
    so out of 8 sets you have 5 different styles all based around similar bpms peaking with outblast set & rounding the night off with the 2 biggest names in uk hard dance..
    North has always been a night to move ahead of the time & bring new sounds & styles to the ears of our followers

    as for this comment isn't it contradicting itself
    Kai said - A lack of imagination in the radical room - although tbf it is quite a fresh line-up in there
    mmm I don't really no where to go with this one..
    2 never before done b2bs in the uk + a producer set never before done
    & Akira only English date this year

    I'm definitely confused with the lacking imagination comment

    you have to go with what ppl and i think you have, its just not what some ppl want, but that will always be the case after all you cant please everyone can you

    as for wanting more techno, i always want more techno, thats why ppl call me the techno bitch................ :razz:

    FRENCHCORE COMMENT
    at the end of the day I could have used a dozen different terminologies for the Radical room as there are so many variations over the Hardcore techno spectrum.. By Kai's comment I really guess you must know now exactly what each dj in the radical room will be playing before they do. Most of the time recently when he has been in the uk he has mainly played mid tempo dutch DNA etc...
    the only time he actually played anything frenchcore over here that I've heard was at SS4
    I've played stuff that would fit into the Frenchcore bracket myself lately as has Producer etc etc..
    as for Frenchcore actually being called French techno where did that come from... mate in the rest of europe apart from the uk hardcore means something completely different than it does over here. Radium would tell you he makes hardcore..

    kai didnt say french techno he said french tekno which is different
    and made by people who strongly believe in free tekno ala teknival
    and the likes...tribe/hardtek producers like axium, desert storm, dsp (not the techno dsp), lsdf which is a sound system crew who producer under lsdf also....but that is here nor there... :eyes:

    what do you mean by techno room I imagine you mean Kay D smith, Chris liberator etc techno & if that's the case we have only EVER in the 100 parties we put on had 4 techno rooms
    all at lakota as I said we used to have one or 2 techno sets in the 2nd room when we were at the void out of 6 hrs & at lakota apart from the 4 parties mentioned before we had 1 or 2 sets in the main room out of usually 9 hrs
