Glad to see Cisco back. I will do my best to be there.

Do it your way, because everyone else is just weird.

Damn, I missed that one.

Last night was crazy, not as packed as I've seen that place but I think it's because everyone was on the dancefloor.

Cisco played a (Ableton) Live set and had the main mixer, a Faderfox unit and the Red Sound SoundBite XL.

He rocked that shit and tweaked it well. Energy level peaking non-stop and threw in some cool ass drones here and there and the crowd was loving every second of it. I sure was.

Bad news is that I got to take 2 or 3 pics of him and then the weak battery signal came on. I got to take a few more before it died. hmm

Gosh, just not my kind of techno at all. Well, I danced a bit. But he should take Drexciya out of his top myspace friends, a bit of false advertising. Not to say that you have to sound like your top 8, but....

On the other hand, it's nice knowing other bots were there. I spoke to the DJ that played before him, seems like not a lot of techno shows at smartbar. I did like some of what the DJ was doing. He said he brought some UR records and enjoyed things off Bunker.

Well, either way keep me posted on more techno in chi town. I just moved here.

Re: 7-11-08 / The Advent / Smartbar / Chicago

He does Electro too which is also good and well, you can't front on Drexciya in that camp so that's why I think he has it on his top.

Yeah, not too big of a Techno town because it's House capital of the world but "good music is good music and it's all good." - Common

Re: 7-11-08 / The Advent / Smartbar / Chicago

I was hoping for more of that electro i saw on his site. too bad, but only for me because everyone else looked like they were having a great old time.

advent sometimes playes electro set but it's up to the party promoter/organiser to say if he want's him to play techno or electro. we should be having an electro set here in zagreb towards the end of the year since the organisers are into that sound..last year or two years ago advent played techno set but that was a techno party anyway so no surprises there. generally speaking the problem for most of us could be that unfortunately most of the party promoters are into techno hmm
