[QUOTE="blue jammer, post: 841178, member: 1606"] What I want from an old skool night you just can't get anymore... A maximum of 3 DJs - anymore and it's a waste of time for the DJs playing, as you can't get into 30 or 45 minute sets, a minimum of 2 hour sets is required as per back in the day. A decent venue that is dark, dingy and like a warehouse - these have all gone now, and we're left with hybrid bar-clubs (ie a bar with a 'dancefloor' area of about 6 foot) or clubs that are so bright, you may as well be stood outside under the streetlights. A good sound system, Funktion One are shit and anyone that bangs on about them must have had their ears burst at some point as it's all high end and lows with no midrange, the separation is too great and unless you are in a certain spot directly under the speakers, it sounds shit. Good luck with the music crusade Jim, I banged on about too much piano years ago on here and it'll never change, there are too many people that like it - sheep/music for the masses and hence why the site name and music policy has remained the same. It takes some serious planning and organisation to get things right and a lot of the nights have lacked a lot of the above and I won't go to them anymore as I don't want to be stood around bored for most of the night. Going way back is the answer, Hip Hop, Electro, Soul and Funk is where it's at now for me and luckily the people doing these kind of nights are taking the time to plan it well. [/QUOTE]
