i didnt really think paul van dyk was that good at monster, especially when he only played the beggining of the seven nation army song, shit messed with my roll.
this could also be one of his own live versions that has not been released. He seems to have been playing FAA harmonies with the Let Go beat. The 2009 version sounds a little different than this.
monster massive was amazing, tao 9 hours of amazing! hopefully tao will top all the raves i've been to, especially flying from colorado to california just to rave lol. I agree about going for the music!
most of those ppl don't even know what the fuck is going on. they don't realize the art behind the music, they just realize the drugs and fuckin Ecstasy. retarded fucks.
You should learn the raver's mantra, bro....PLUR. Peace, Love, Unity, Respect. Regardless of whether or not people choose to roll, you have to be respectful and loving of one another. One thing about ecstasy, if you care to research the effects of E yourself, or even try it, is that sensory experience is enhanced, especially sound and touch. It deepens most people's appreciation for the music....which is why it goes great w/ the atmosphere. Chill out, dude.
the only good ones he played was for an angel and let go club mix i think he could have had alot better set but was still fun although kind of killed my roll when he played seven nation army twice between 15 minutes
I love how every DJ is unique and don't understand how people can be judges.
People aren't used PVD's new style.
He plays similar tracks that flow really well in a mix but then he suddenly drops a new beat that doesn't fit the previous tracks. It's for a shock effect. It changes the mood of the crowd and creates a sudden change in awareness to the music. It was very weird at first, but I get it now. He did a nice job of mixing big trance with house(IE. SMACK-WTF- CRUSH).
The man is a genius. Search YouTube for PVD at Metro, Melbourne 2007, he even mixes rock'n'roll, see how he used Wonderwall by Oasis. I say again, genius.
He's been around since the early 90s. Has years of major hits that people expect him to play. SO he remixes them or reproduces them live. I saw him four times in the last 5 months. Every time the set had a different feel. Sometimes it was POP-ish, sometimes it was dark, sometime very intense. Each one was different. SO many of you rookie ravers simply do not know how to appreciate his different styles. Get seasoned in the rave world, then be a judge.
Been to a few small events, they're fun as well. Actually the smaller ones seem funner, Lovefest Afterparty 08 was spectacular, though I don't consider that small I still consider it a massive. I've been to a few clubs with DJ's playing. Completely different atmosphere, but still fun. Didn't enjoy Tiesto too much at a club event though. Maybe its just my opinion, but hey opinions are opinions no wrong or right to them.
You are right, I shouldn't judge new ravers. It just seemed like there were a lot of people on here who have only dipped a toe into the world of electronica and are trying to judge.
But hey, that's what we are here for right? ..Too discuss music and our great lifestyle.
I reccomend seeing PVD at a smaller, less crowded event. You need to have room to sink into the music. There are a lot of rookies out there who only go to the massives. Go check out a smaller show with local DJs. They are just as fun.
yeah monster this year was good i agree with a couple people PVD didnt play anything that amazing besides his 'let go' mix that he ran with 'for an angel' but the white stripez shit got played THREE times that night - once by jules, twice by paul if anyone noticed read the review by DI magazine... cant wait for TAO
Not trying to be negative sorry. To me its just opinions and everyone is entitled to them. I'm all for fun ever since my first event at MM07, I've been to a massive nearly every 2 or 3 months. Half the time I'm there to give back the love with lightshows or just trying to get to know people and enjoy the music.
Unfortunately, it wasn't fun when PvD closed at EDC08 =(. Again just my opinion. I wish it was though, I'm all for good music and the crowd going nuts.
I absolutely agree dude...Moby took the set. As long as people who go to these events for the music then I have nothing but respect. Some people do need to learn to be more chill and friendly though, but not everyones like that. Nothing's perfect.
im might be conidered a "rookie" cause i only go to massives but i only go to the massives to keep the x usage minimal...but i always bring my good vibes so...whatever im a rookie :) but im a rookie having a great time! and yeah some people need to chill out
Rookie or not everyone is welcomed, as long as people go for the music and not to be an idiot. Good to hear you enjoy the scene, hope many more great times come. We all were a rookie at one time =).
i barley started hitting these raves up.. BEST THING in the world!!!!!! Dance the night away.. , no need for hate on n e ones styles.. PEACE and LOVE..
I might agree that he has played better sets. I went to San Fran to see him a week later and he played a set that topped EDC08's.
But what he does is so much different than any other DJ. So much of his set is produced live, not just off of a CD. There is a reason Tiesto, AVB, and PVD are all at the top of every DJ list. They do not suck at all.
i thought he was gonna play one more song at the end, i think he was but then everyone started booing him :( i didnt like how he ended it...still had a blast though,
I dont think people really booed him. I think they booed the fact that they wouldn't let him play. Ive seen him come out for encores many times before.
oh "they" didnt let him play? i see, i thought he just didnt want to or something...i really had my hopes up for one more song man...Raves are love/hate for me. That night i LOOOOVE them but the next day i HATE them for how shitty i feel coming down. :/
but whatever i only go to the massives that are at the arena or the colusium (spelling?)
The promoters only get a permit until a certain time. If the DJ plays anything after that, they get a heavy fine or have future permits pulled. You might say that they are already pushing limits.
I've seen PVD come back and play an encore a few times.
ahh yes i see, makes sense now...and yeah raves are pushing the limits indeed. the staff always seems annoyed by us...especially the people working the water stands.
I am 27. I work in entertainment at very popular tv network. I have been to many shows in my life, but Monster Massive 2008 was my first rave. I never listened to electronica except for "Sandstorm" before last Saturday night. My opinion on MM2008: It was on of the greatest nights in my entire life. I don't know enough trance to rate the music or DJ's, but they did blow me away. I agree with the adjective that it was "Orgasmic." AMAZING! TAO here I come.
even tho pvd plays the same stuff over and over, he dropped some sick ass remixes of his music at monster and im sad to report you missed 1 of his best performances in my opinion. i tear up and get the chills everytime monster was Truely AMAZING!
You are fuckin stupid 4 saying Pvd is horrible he is amazing at what he does! he was the main dj there why bother 2 go if u see his name on the list! ROck on PVD!!!
pvd was horrible he mad me want to leave the rave early he was soo bad im being honest sucked at EDC sucked at Monster dont know how he was the closer
Honestly, the middle of his set was amazing, but the end was a complete trainwreck. I'm sure it sounded AMAZING if this was one of your first raves, but it was really garbage noise.
They need to start booking some new talent for the main stage, because hearing For an Angel EVERY SINGLE TIME he's on stage for ANY massive gets boring and repetitive.
eh i agree with you about how he always plays For an Angel, but Markus Schulz does the same thing with "DayDream". I thought this rave was well put together overall.
Judge Jules gave me more than i expected, but I also agree PVD ended his set so horribly. The P.A. announcer gave the crowd the impression he was going to play an encore if the crowd got loud enough, and PVD waved it off. lol sad that it ended like that, but overall, it was a great night.
Yeah, I agree w/Markus' Daydream, he played that at POP earlier this year too, wtf. It's kind of a buzzkill to hear songs played at previous events one, or even two years ago. Including 2008, For an Angel has been played by PVD for the past three years.. lol.
I'm so glad I left before that PVD's end. It seems like PVD always messes up the closings. At '07 Nocturnal he ended his set by teasing Blood is Pumping, stopped and left everyone hangin... WTF.
I welcome Markus' Daydream any time any day :D. Markus plays different things, however it seems that PvD keeps playing the same thing over and over. I have a personal thing against PvD since EDC.
POP was in NorCal and this is SoCal so he's just reaching out to other fans I would assume; but even then, I would welcome it. :D
Don't you agree that the DJ should play one of his hits? I'm sure he'll phase out daydream eventually, its just one year old!
Well the original song is a year old, but Markus plays a remix version of it since POP. Either way Daydream is a good song and so is For An Angel, I have nothing against PvD playing For An Angel just the way he DJs. One song doesn't make or break a DJ.
vip tix ftw! i was like right next too him! good set! i was the guy dressed as a grim reaper bobble head( head was like 3' X 3' haha was tripping everyone out that night took atleast 20-30 pics :D best damn night this yr so far :D
it was so f*ckin sick! it was packed in the building, outside was packed too! hella people OD'd that night! inside was really humid, but it was well worth going to LA for it!
I was so fucking pissed they weren't letting anyone back in. All I did was go get some air, I try to go back in and they tell me they hit maximum capacity so I missed Paul fucking Van Dyk :(
i sat through the whole thing and got bored...honestly i wish i was outside listening to good house music that way i could hear some unpredictable sounds...
pvd's set was too hectic and you couldnt really enjoy the roll
John O Calaghan and Markus Schulz made Paul look amateur, to be honest his mixes were not that great. All in all it was a good event but at TAO it will go down.
I hopped on a paul van dyke train (line of ppl dancing there way all the way down hands on shoulder train dace line thing) and when we got down there they fuking stopped letting ppl in because of overpaction.....gay......but still a magical night
I was there last night too it was fuckin Amazing!!!!
Im looking for anyone that might have taken video or pics with me last night. I was dressed in a wizards costume and everyone was taking pics with me all night long like I was a frikkin character at disneyland lmao! It was the best night of my life!!!!
i fukn love u pvd this was my first rave n i got to c u..cant wait for u to come bak to L.A

Honestly, the middle of his set was amazing, but the end was a complete trainwreck. I'm sure it sounded AMAZING if this was one of your first raves, but it was really garbage noise.
They need to start booking some new talent for the main stage, because hearing For an Angel EVERY SINGLE TIME he's on stage for ANY massive gets boring and repetitive.

Trainwreck huh? Sounds like Paul van Dyk to me :)
He loves playing 7 Army Nation as well.
Go ventures saved all their money for TAO this year :P

eh i agree with you about how he always plays For an Angel, but Markus Schulz does the same thing with "DayDream". I thought this rave was well put together overall.
Judge Jules gave me more than i expected, but I also agree PVD ended his set so horribly. The P.A. announcer gave the crowd the impression he was going to play an encore if the crowd got loud enough, and PVD waved it off. lol sad that it ended like that, but overall, it was a great night.
SeanTyasOwns 3 years ago
Yeah, I agree w/Markus' Daydream, he played that at POP earlier this year too, wtf. It's kind of a buzzkill to hear songs played at previous events one, or even two years ago. Including 2008, For an Angel has been played by PVD for the past three years.. lol.
I'm so glad I left before that PVD's end. It seems like PVD always messes up the closings. At '07 Nocturnal he ended his set by teasing Blood is Pumping, stopped and left everyone hangin... WTF.
I swear he's the next Oakenfold.
roxb0x 3 years ago
I welcome Markus' Daydream any time any day :D. Markus plays different things, however it seems that PvD keeps playing the same thing over and over. I have a personal thing against PvD since EDC.
POP was in NorCal and this is SoCal so he's just reaching out to other fans I would assume; but even then, I would welcome it. :D
Don't you agree that the DJ should play one of his hits? I'm sure he'll phase out daydream eventually, its just one year old!
xnxsxx 3 years ago
Well the original song is a year old, but Markus plays a remix version of it since POP. Either way Daydream is a good song and so is For An Angel, I have nothing against PvD playing For An Angel just the way he DJs. One song doesn't make or break a DJ.

I was so fucking pissed they weren't letting anyone back in. All I did was go get some air, I try to go back in and they tell me they hit maximum capacity so I missed Paul fucking Van Dyk :(

John O Calaghan and Markus Schulz made Paul look amateur, to be honest his mixes were not that great. All in all it was a good event but at TAO it will go down.
