Well i'm glad i wasn't dancing anywhere near them. Everyone i spoke to was there specifically for Apollonia. Would have definitely been a shock to the tech house fans though - really percussive, hypnotic even.Sounds like a load of kids attended without really knowing what to expect and were disappointed
I went to this as well! Great to see Fabric back to it's best and forgot how good that sound system is!! Really did not understand any criticism, thought the French delivered even if Dyed couldn't make it!Well i'm glad i wasn't dancing anywhere near them.

i'm weirdly happy it would have pissed some people off
I think we have similar tastesI went to this as well! Great to see Fabric back to it's best and forgot how good that sound system is!! Really did not understand any criticism, thought the French delivered even if Dyed couldn't make it!
Next up is the RPR & Friends 24 hrs event, very excited for this! Did anyone got to the 24 hr one the other week? Different music I know but just curious what it was like, done the birthdays a few times so assume similar to that just not as long.
it really is a thing of beauty
seems like that rule went out the window all weekendHeard that Jamie Jones was decent in Fabric yesterday. Although the No phone / camera policy not enforced judging by social media
That sounds somewhat tidy
Last time I went to see rodhad and red axes and only seen one guy filming - same as the bday before. Not suprised that people were filming in jamie Jones gig tbh hope it's just a matter of a crowd.seems like that rule went out the window all weekend
I'm going. I'm sure Laurent and Dave gonna clash so not sure who to see. Might try to split it and see both if possible.Huge one with Garnier and Dave Clarke at fabric this sat. Whos going?
Silence indicates they are still going….How was it gents?
Best fabric ive been to in years. It was also the most packed ive seen fabric ever. Felt like the whole of paris came around. We got in at like 1:30 and caught Clarke for an hour at2 and he was solid as per. They open up all three entrances as the que went waaay past subway down the hill. Garnier and scan x went b2b from 3 to 7 and it was incredible. Garnier is sill the best a round.How was it gents?
Sounds amazing....glad you had a good night! I love fabric....its amazingI agree, we arrived just before 12 and they already had the biggest q I have ever seen! Seemed busier than fabric birthday! Still knowing how busy it was didn't have to wait to get served too long nor there were q for toilets - amazing! The more time on the dance floor the better
One of my friends never knew that there is room 3 in fabric all these years - I couldn't believe it lol so we went to check out room 3 for a bit to warm up, then headed to room 1 for works of intent which was alright. To our surprise it was almost 2am already so headed to room 2 for Dave and jesus christ he absolutely smashed it! It was my first time seeing him and being honest I wasn't sure how it will go because from listening his online I really didn't like the way he mixes (using a lot of chopping) but on the dancefloor it works very well.
At 4 we went to see Laurent b2b Scan X and at first it took awhile to adapt to slower tempo but once I got into the groove it was incredible - some of the stuff they played blew my mind. I couldn't believe when the music stopped that the night was over already - passed like a blink of an eye. Was about to leave but they dropped a few drum n bass tracks (or was it dubstep? Lol). Not a huge fan of dnb but they were pretty fun tracks to end the night and bloody hell what a night it was!
We continued in fold from 9am. When we got in the party was still popping. The lady machine and tasha played b2b, much slower compared to their usual sets but it was perfect fit for early morning. Highlight in fold was marron and voicedrone, really good sets! Also the vibe and the crowd in fold probably the best I have seen in UK! Wanted to stay till the end but had to leave at 2pm to catch megabus back to Wales. That was amazing 14 hours of raving!
Now will be back to fabric presents DVS1 all nighter at Village underground on the 25th, followed with richie hawtin at printworks on the 26th. Full recovery mode till then
