BEATSTREET 2010: A space disco odyssey.

2010 is upon us. We were promised robots, flying cars, moon colonies and space travel by now. And instead, humans have spent billions of dollars perfecting the art the discotheque...

We aren't complaining, so get on down to another chapter in our intergalactic travel through outer limits of the space disco continuum and exploring the mindspace of the world's most futuristic audio adventurers, bass voyagers and rhythm wanderers.


DJs:
Matt Drake
Shaveer
Nick D
Soane


Saturday 13th February
Ink Bar (268 K'Rd)

good move going on a space disco tip this time.......I'm almost tempted to come along, even if all my mates are losers who don't like dance music.

p.s - Mark E is the man.

yays, been waiting for the link for this! it was fantastic on the day, looking forward to listening again!

Yeah he's great..
The new mark E is really nice. Can't remember the name of it.

white skyway?

I've been playing bits and bobs of 'space disco' for about a decade now... but the concept is partly a bit of a pisstake at Rob W's comments that everyone's doing it

(tho to be honest, most people's 'space disco' is more mild MOS electrohouse to my ears.... Todd Terje would cry).

sure, sure.. matt drake, jumping on the bandwagon since ages ago..

true.

I've heard some Tod Terje stuff that I could swear is prog trance more than disco or anything else.......

Well, actually, now you mention the trance thing, I've probably been into space disco it since hearing this guy:




And you'll probably guess where trance ALSO came from I assume?

That's the one.



Nice stuff.

Dude!! berlin sessions remember ! Ame and Benji space disco and underground grooves 4 hours b2b . At 4 am it was all the kids, main room packed, dancing to 122bpm stuff. Ahh that was good times.

Sweet looking forward to sat night.

Hey if you guys are really keen on seeing Mark E he is in Australia over easter weekend. But if your extra serious let me know your plans over Easter, we can get him down here, on the thursday or saturday at Ink... I just figured most people wouldn't head out on the thursday night, and would be away for the saturday??

Lush afternoon grooves... makes me wanna be back in Berlin!

well, you should be next year!

shaveer, that night was mega! the whole weekend was actually! heres to many more this year!

122bpm?

What is house normally played at?

According to most DJs in Auckland it's about 130...

Bummed i didn't make it down man!

Nice mix!! unless it's just my copy it cuts off around Alpha Child - Gamma Ray (Franc Spangler Mix)..

Hmmm....
You might need to download again, the file probably only partly downloaded.

Thanks to everyone who came down! Was a kickass night
