Based on the events of August 7th, 2006.
There's no REAL way to describe Circoloco @ DC10, it's a different experience for every one, whether you choose to kick it inside, with the dark sounds and more of a rough feeling, or, (And this is a BIG "or") if you choose to be on the terrace.
Notice that you never see pictures from inside of DC10, all you see is pictures from the terrace, and there's a good reason for it...
The terrace, is one of the craziest places on the face of earth, I can honestly say that the only place that comes close to it is Panorama Bar in Berlin.
It's the most respected and sought after party in the island, simply because no one can match it, hell, even Space closed it's Monday After Parties becuase no one showed up, everyone goes to DC10 on a Monday morning/afternoon.
It's a mixture of some extreme gay crowd on the right side, what we like to call "The Skin Zone", but on the other hand you'll also meet cheeky elegant Spanish and Italian ladies dancing their thongs off.
A lot of the people are in masks/disguises, wearing surreal hats and clothing, doing some crazy things, a woman in a Bride's dress with a dildo on her head, 2 guys in a donkey suit, an Indian Pizza delivery boy (Actually holding a Pizza!), I can go on and on...
Last time I was there was August 2006, nothing beats the feeling of entering the terrace, seeing the Red (now Yellow) walls, the industrial fans shooting a blend of Cold/Hot air on you, the afternoon light of the sunset is cought between the fans and your eyes, the Bass is pumping so hard from the speakers, that's all this place really needs to keep going for hours and hours, a solid bassline, leave the rest to the crowd.
The DJ Booth is a fiesta, at times there are 10-15 people except for the DJ in the booth, skinny girls dancing, taking their tops off and throwing them to the crowd, it's very common to see other DJs just pop up in the DJ Booth, we saw Danny Tenaglia for example, dressed up like a bumble bee in the booth, dancing and shouting to the crowd, Ricardo Villalobos and Richie Hawtin stops by for a visit before their Cocoon night to taste the vibe, one of the most rememorable moments was at 2003, Steve Lawler was spotted in the DJ Booth, the crowd went crazy, Lawler took off his shirt, jumped into the crowd and was carried all around the terrace, with his hands in the air.
Then comes the big attraction, the "Sit Down", Loco Dice, plays one of his monster tunes "Seeing Through Shadows", the break arrives, everyone and I do mean everyone sits their ass down, clapping, whistling, shouting, you hear Spanish, Italian, German from all over, there is excitement in the air.
Then the beat comes in and with it, the club lifts off, hundreds of clubbers jump up with their hands up in the air, it's something you just have to experience yourself, this was truely one of the greatest moments in my whole clubbing career and I'll remember it to the day I die.
It's when moments like this seem to bind together in DC10 that I feel so happy to be a part of this thing called the electronic music and clubbing scene.
I think, these pictures, say it all:
And the rest my friend, you just have to see for yourself.
...we had similar feelings/experiences, when we were there in 07...DC10 is a truely unique club(bing) experience...
