Your worst acid techno moment?

[DarkYoung]

for quite a few years i actually thought that lawrie immersion was his actual full name.

or i thought he was called lawrie immerson or summat.

weak i know.

My worst acid techno moment came in 2003 at a free party on the South Downs - some geezer kept following me around, convinced that I was dealing K. I managed to give him the slip, and sneaked off to my car for a bit of a snooze. Sometime later - not sure how long it was - I woke up with a jolt as the same geezer was rocking my car and banging on the side window shouting "OI YOU GOT ANY K?! ANY K MATE? OI!!!!!!!!!!". I tell you, there are some very strange people in Sussex.......

in 2006/7 ? i went to a free party in wales, for some ****ed up reason i took some records wanting to play. anyway it turned into a really really messy party. i took a lot of acid, pills and way too much coke i then tried to get on the decks, after a few minutes i was discretely led away from the DJ booth, and made a complete fool of myself.

ah i can laugh about it now.

I've never done anything, ever, to make myself look like a cunt, especially when I've been completly munted. Oh no sir :whoops:

[davethedrummer]

played the same track twice in birmingham last month
the beauty of handwritten cds eh ?

[rhythmtech]

too many to mention.

one that springs to mind was playin all 3 remixes + original of that old rebel yelle track (including the cool dub remix), 1 after another and thinkin i was the bizz :embarrassed:

at an after party in poland a few years back, askin henry to let me know when it was time for my flight home, only to later realise i should have asked him to remind me 2 hours before hand.. ended up coming home nearly penniless as i had to get a hotel for a night and another flight :embarrassed:

got munted on K with the havok lads in tysenn st bout 15 years ago while we were all meant to be playin in their little side room. needless to say people were strolling in, looking at us, havin a right laugh and moving on again.

first time ever playin on lawrie's old rig. first record on (the old technoslut with all the snares), thought i was being "da man", killed the highs just before it all kicks in but instead of bringing the highs back in i missed the knob and ended up cranking the gain!!! couple of deaf munters in the front i'd say! :lol::lol:.. and lawrie nearly had a kitten.

playin in bow road party after someone, i started with exactly the same record he finished on. total brain fart.

ive more and ill add them when i think of em.

I went all the way to london at the start of the year to catch an acid techno afterparty. not sure who was playing chris lib and ddr defo and i cant think of the rest. it started at like 9am and was to be finished at ard 2r 3 that day. I ended up going on a mad one the night before down hackney. by the time i made it to the club it was over.

Bergers birthday in the cellar in Tramore, we got told to pack up and **** off because I played waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to hard. :lol: I'm actually proud of that tbh.

same but worse...

playing after Steve Kyte at a party with about 10 of the same records he just put on.

Producer cranking the decks up to plus 8 every time I picked out a new record at a night and laughing when I tried to sort it out and slow it down.

various K based delusions where the vinyl appears to be stopped so you press play and oooooops

[The_Laughing_Man]

Popping the shutters on a warehouse in P****gton, london, looking to party it the following weekend, lifting the shutters up to be faced with a shop floor, people working, never legged it so fast in my life.

Nailing up a door to the roof at on of our parties in *****loo (from the roof, we were then gonna climb down onto the fire escape and get back in) to stop munters from getting up there, drove in last nail, 2 K`d up italians kick door down, which landed on top of us.

Too many to mention really.

my was few days ago when ive discovered that someone has ripped all scythe releases into mp3 and sharing free over the p2p programs like emule or soulseek

we never selling scythe on mp3... just to keep vinyl alive

the worst propably is the ripper it was polish guy which "supporting acid techno scene" and "he would just like to get all scythe releases on mp3" (i can imagine his arguments)

it means my years of education to people in Poland and hundret of hours spent with chating, explaining and talking over internet, radio and in real - is gone!
.... and we get no effect! :(

There was that time I asked some bird who was kind of hunched down in the squatting position if she was ok. She replied "F*ck off, I'm having a piss" :lol:

[Jay Pace]

Saw a guy get stabbed to death at a free party after sonar.

[DannyBlack]

Well, by not releasing digitally you are closing off your market.
I don`t DJ any more, so I don`t buy vinyl.
I buy all my music digitally. If there is osmething I like that is vinyl only, I will download an illegal rip.
So the artist has lost my sale.
You can`t stop piracy, but if you make your music available on all formats, those that love the music will pay for it.

Vinyl usually gets ripped the same day as release, so not selling digital versions of your vinyl does absolutely nothing to stop piracy.

Vinyl is very expensive and most people these days don`t want to pay £8 for an ep of which they may only like 1 track.

Sad state of affairs, but reality is reality. Embrace the future or get left behind in the ditch is what I say.

Every moment of my acid techno life has been ****ing well proper!

i have to say athar that i agree with steve 100%

i think to limit yourself to vinyl is a bad move for the label. supplying in a vinyl format is definitly to be applauded but mp3, in this day and age, is going to reach a much bigger market 9whether it be legal or not).
