Well it has been an interesting two weeks off, but theres work to be done and plenty of events centered around dance music that deserve attention for the masses of dancing souls. Those masses were out in force this past Monday to witness Datsik blow the lid off the Ballroom again. Though I was not in attendance, many described it as being even louder than the 100,000 watt PK sound system from the Excision concert earlier this year! Apparently the loudness was so great that it was physically affecting concert goers, striking them with nausea, and vomiting according to a review in University at Buffalo publication The Spectrum. However true that may be, that sounds very intense and bludgeoning, literally.
Last week, I was once again directed to "Exit Music," the online column from Artvoice writer and friend of buffaBLOG Cory Perla, to listen to the latest installment in a series of exclusive DJ mixes from local artists. I would like to just take the opportunity to commend Cory on this idea. The exposure to new fans and opportunity that this has presented to local DJs has been beneficial for the scene. I hope to see this series continue, so that more mixes can be churned out from the likes of LOKI, D-STAR, MEDISON, RUFUS GIBSON, KILLSOUND, CUTLER, BIG BASHA, and most recently SWAGGLEROCK among others. You can listen to the series on Artvoice's Mixcloud page which can be found HERE.
