Guest lurk Posted August 6, 2002 Share Posted August 6, 2002 How come no-one has said anything about it ? it can't have been that bad, i guess, cos people would have moaned; or that good, cos people would have mentioned that too. or maybe no-one went at all ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest StoNeY! Posted August 6, 2002 Share Posted August 6, 2002 Yeah, I went, and IMO it was good. Unfortunately not a lot of people seem to feel the same way. Only negative point I saw was that there were too little people, and the weather, but that wasn't all that bad either. Well, the location was on a big field, there was a big chill out tent with some rugs on the floor. The main stage area was surrounded by nice uv wallhangings. And the speakers were set up in a big circle around the stage, real good soundsystem if you ask me, it blew my mind The music was pretty good, and not too much progressive, too bad there wasn't a lineup on the festival, you hardly could know who was playing...

Guest phaeton Posted August 6, 2002 Share Posted August 6, 2002 well i gotta say i have mixed feelings about it .. overall i had a really good time, but it could've been even (a lot) better if only there would have been more people and nicer weather ... the location and decoration were imo much better than last year, although the camping wasn't surrounded by such a beautiful forest this time .. but hey it finally was totally outdoors! unfortunately this _did_ mean that there was no escape when them evil weathergods felt like giving us dirty hippies a well needed shower, at least not apart from the chill out tent .. music-wise the festival had some really good moments .. i really enjoyed most of the live acts .. i was especially surprised by wizzy noise, of who i didn't have very high expectations .. they totally blew my mind with a set of extremely psychedelic and subtly even very melodic (!), ever-evolving energetic tunes .. am i the only one who enjoyed their set that much? other highlights for me were eat static (as always very original and very psychedelic music), mos (minimal yeah, but fucking good minimal it was) and mino (who was drumming fanatically during his entire set) .. the only true disappointment for me was spectral .. i don't know why, i love their album but this time it just didn't sound right to me .. it might have been because it was in the chill out tent instead of in the sun too bad the dj sets i enjoyed most were played for way too few people on the dancefloor .. nonetheless, great full on sets in the morning by psilo, janua & psyonic .. (btw janua, i didn't see you around anymore after i went sleeping during the end of your set, otherwise i would've come and shaken hands with you for sure .. better luck next time i guess?) i also thought my own set went pretty well, but feel free to tell me if your opinion is different .. (played tracks from digital talk, hux flux, sienis, navajo, grapes of wrath, insane behaviour, deviant species, e.a. all in all i gotta say that music-wise it for me was again a succesful and varied festival (and no, not more minimal than last year), but due to the lack of people and good weather it just didn't have the atmosphere of last year's edition .. too bad, 'cause it sure _could_ have been as good ..

Guest Setsuko Posted August 9, 2002 Share Posted August 9, 2002 It wasn't that bad actually (not as good as i expected ofcourse)... for me MOS was the best artists of the festival ... extremely hypnotising ... wooooooow ... the rest well , lots of details that bothered me ... not so good sound PA but the stage was nice decorated .. nice visuals too ... one thing that bothered me were those silly people on the dancefloor with laughing gas balloons .. aaaarg ... some just fell down lying on the ground ... it was shocking imo .. some more opinions coming up .

Guest JanUa Posted August 11, 2002 Share Posted August 11, 2002 well, i enjoyed myself but the memory of the legendary senseblender 2001 kept my head from floating away (too bad) deco was good (altough too little blacklights around) location: well ... who the hell came with the idea to do a psytrance festival there?! ... it was okay for a rock festival but for a psytrance festival it was too located in "the real world" ... music ... enjoyed alot ... especially ... Pheaton, shacticat and psilo Pheaton has a great mixing technique and good set strucure, but the music was a little too dark for me at the moment ... but it fitted the festival vibe extremely well for the rest ... indeed setsuko, those balloon adicts were a bit "degoutant" imo ... i even saw people bumping in to others and knoking each other over ... balloons ruin a party ... nothing more to say actually ...
