September 29th - Experience The 90's, Weert

After our set in Leeuwarden, it was time to drive ( read fly ) and convert a 3 hours drive into a 2 hours drive. So it was driving 170 km/h.

Our Tom Tom said arrival at 3.02 AM, but in the end we arrived at 2.27 AM. Unfortunately due to miscommunication we had to play from 2AM tot 3AM, so that was a real bummer, because the people there really wanted to party!

After a conversation with a manager of the club, we cleared stuff and we will be back soon in Club Experience in Weert!

Other dj's were Dune ( Hardcore Vibes ) and our friend Dj Freeze.

September 7th - Happy Typhoon, Utrecht

Last friday it was the first time that we rocked Utrecht as a dj team. As Critical Mass live ( together with Ludmilla ) we've been here a couple of times including the infamous Mystery Land 'Winter Edition' in 1997 where I rocked with my buddies Drokz, Mouth Of Madness, Weirdo and the rest.

This time, it was Bruce and me rocking stage ( well actually the dj booth ), but the cool party was it was in a rockcafe. Utrecht is a very big student city, so hardcore parties are pretty rare. At this particular location, Stairway to Heaven, it was the first ever harder style party. Normally there are bands playing here, and their is live music. Maybe some soul, or disco music. But now it was happy and early hardcore brought to by For-U productions, MC Tha Watchers' organisation.

Unfortunately the headliner, Paul Elstak, was cancelled but they had a great replacement called DARKRAVER .. Other dj's that night were The Beast, OCD, Mercenary, Freeze, The Menace and the guys of Basic Grooves.

Our setttime was from 2.00 - 3.00AM, and when we arrived at about 1.15AM, it was not that crowded. However, the people that were present, were partying like mad! And that's the vibe we need to have at these early hardcore parties! We played a very nice set and got some serious positive feedback from people in the crowd. GREAT !

Thanks to Tony ( MC Tha Watcher ) for having us at his #oneofthosenights Happy Typhoons.

Partypictures that were made by our own photographer Jasper will follow soon!

Schedule week 36

This friday it's time for our first time Utrecht with our dj team! We are playing in a wellknown bar/cafe in the middle of Utrecht, one of Hollands biggest cities! We are so looking forward!

• September 7th - Happy Typhoon, Utrecht

Normally this is a rockcafe, so this will be the first time they play hardcore! I am really anxious what goes on there! This party is organized and hosted by my man Tha Watcher, so this could be an epic party! Be there !!!

July 27th - Happy Typhoon, Tilburg

Last friday we drove to Tilburg, a city with 200.000 inhabitants and is situated not that far from Eindhoven. In this period it's also the time that the big fun fair takes place. It's the biggest in the BENELUX ( Belgium, Netherlands and Luxemburg )

The club where we are playing, Club Plaza, is in the middle of that fun fair.

Our settime was 02.00 till 03.00 AM, but I wanted to be there at at least 1.00 AM because Paul Elstak is playing before us, and that's always difficult. Even when he is not playing his best set, he still is PAUL ELSTAK. And I wanted to know what tracks he played, so that we wouldn't play the same ofcourse.

So we drove off at about 11 PM, and at that time the weather was still good. But when we arrived at Tilburg, it was raining heavy ...

But that didn't stop us from playing some good old early hardcore ! Ofcourse Paul did his thing together with his MC, Ruffian so the audience had a good warm-up :)

At 2 AM, it was our time to rock, and we did ! The partypeople seemed to think so too because I saw a lot of people dancing .. And we also got some good feedback afterwards. Again another party taken care off ...

Here are some partypictures that were taken at the crime scene :
