Dirty Zneakz 11 november 2005

Right, changing the format again, and hopefuly the last time I'm not actually IN Brussels myself, here's the zneakage...

FRIDAY:

::BASS NIGHT @ Fuse : Even though you cannot get around the Fuse, the focus on techno and (with Oscar Mulero) minimal is slightly too boring to really recommend it...
::Frequencies @ BOAZ: To me this is the party of the week- easily beating I love Techno on saturday because of its focus on electro in all forms from gravitating to the dark centre to scratching up to funk, showing that beyond the electro-clash mainstream pop electro and breakz are the 'field' allowing more creativity than any other genre whilst keeping the focus on the wild animal inside that craves dancing... whatever that means. Just check the lineup and try not to get excited: ardisson, bionix, dez williams, sendai , spazmic systems ,lysergic and autokinetik vs d-tronik!
:: ?WANNA PLAY ? @
Milkclub : This is one of the things the the current clubbing culture needs; Introducing new dj's. With all due restekkepa for the big names, and the quality they provide, the biggest threath to the music industry these days is the music industry? Giving new dj's a chance is the only way to keep the business healthy. On the other heand they seem pre-focused on house, and if that's the case more's the pity.
::Before party @ Le Courant d'Air : eighties music? Early on the evening? - bless my tiny alcoholic brain stem, but I'm afraid there's a reason I only come out after 11...

SATURDAY:

::Search'n Destroy @ Quai des peniches: break core is about as narrow a genre defenition as 'music', but likely it'll be fast electronic breakz... what's not to like.
::I need techno @ The Villa plain vanilla techno... I'll dance to it, but don't expect me to cream my pants ;) alhtough kudos for sticking it to the big glockenspiel in Ghent I s'pose.
::Ritmo Caliente @ Soho: Right, just take one look at that flyer and you'll know it all. This is the kind of latino thing that makes me wish I could really dance..
::Blitzkrieg Analog Club @ Recyclart: And again with the advanced electronics- although this party should have a definite rock slant...And you have to love the title, even though it doesn't make my job any easier.. yes yes, i know, it's not a job if you don't get paid.
::Music on a Nighttrain @ train to Tienen and back: mishmash of styles. This looks to me to be a typical government issue party: too focused on a etheral concept to fill up a whole train.. however I've been on this train once before, and if you just cruise from one end to the other and back and hit all the bars underway it's a pretty interesting experience.
::After Smile @ Small: apparently an electro-slash-techno thing, this is at one of those little unknown clubs I hope to discover soon.. for the moment I couldn't say what it's like. Anyone?

PS: tonite I'll be hitting the Rumba in Leuven again, for the Lektric party.. my tip for out of BXL parties, even thugh the crowd is pretty young. I won't mention the circus in Ghent again, but consider I love Money in the Zoo on saturday- It's free!
