someone should have told security at the last Split - with the bad attitude they were showing I think they thought it was still an RnB night

[Kube 72]

Well to be honest I have never had a problem but I guess everyone's views will be different but personally I found them ok.

whats turnmills like as a club? never been, is it big etc..

[SimonH]

It's a big club with (proportionally) a tiny dancefloor and a no more than adequate sound system and yes it's still 4 quid for a can of Stella and 2 quid for the cloakroom

and for the record, at the last Split the security near us were extremely heavy handed - if you like a club with constant random searches then Turnmills is the place for you.

The S1 club was abseluteley wiked. Massive space. Really good buzz about it, 3 quid a can wich wasnt that bad either.

quite - the previous Retrovert nights at the Rocket worked much better. Don't get me wrong, the music was absolute quality at Split, it was just the wrong venue although apparently they have addressed the overcrowding issue for the next one.

I shall be making the trip over for this :)

se1's sound system isnt too great tho

[split]

a big thanks to all who turned out on saturday, it was a busy night again and all the dj's did us proud.
we set the capacity at 200 people less than the last party and hope this did something towards easing the movement inside, it was still rammed but definately an improvement.

look out for splits return after the summer with another solid line up and 2 summer retro_vert boat parties.

the rv's.Â*

Had a brilliant night again at Split. I wonder if SimonH went to the same nights as me. I found the security to be firm but fair, and you can't expect them to act differently because it's a techno night, and not r'n'b. What difference does that make to them? I've not seen anyone stopped for a random search either.

I think the venue's pretty good, the sound system crisp and clear, and it was very busy again. But there's always space if you want it. I found up the back of the second main room was good for getting the arms and legs moving. And then once Rush was on and cleared the lightweights off to the chillout room, it was no problem.

Through the second room was like sardines though.

No-one dissapointed me music wise all night... apart from Rush dropping "Just Kick". Probably the only point of the night I stopped dancing :lol: But he made up for it later with some brilliant hard as nails stuff.

Looking forward to Chris Finke coming up to play for us at Refresh in July, and I'll be keeping an eye out for the next split event. :clap:

hmmmm im not sure if its just me or what. that place was so packed i couldnt move unless i was being shoved out of the way by people trying to move... there was no room to dance and barely enough room to breathe. the sound was mashy in most spots (unless you could worm your way into the middle of the room). my 2 friends left at 12 and i eventually gave up at 3. sucks though cause the music was unbelivable and everyone there (with a few exceptions) was really friendly!
i hope this isnt how most techno parties are in europe. i kind of look forward to dancing when i go out and not just bopping my head to the beats.
any suggestions on smaller more intimate parties?
dont get me wrong i had a great time ive just never been to a party THAT oversold.
