Is anyone here from Chicago? I know NYC has a good scene and I have the option to go to London, Chicago or NYC for work and live there. Which city do y'all prefer for music and dancing?

London has pretty much the best lineups in the world. Second maybe only to Berlin. That's just me though.

EDIT: I'm sure you will, but make sure to actually visit the uk before moving. I had fun there but I personally would not want to live there, even if the lineups make me want to weep sometimes.

Yes please tell us more. I've been contemplating planning a 'German techno gently caress off life for 1 week' vacation. This is absolutely stupid, beyond irresponsible, and a waste of cash but:

1) Fly to Germany
2) Rage my rear end off to bass for 5 days.
3) Sleep for 1 day.
4) Fly home.

Maybe someday...

Try to find a german friend. Even if he dosen't live in the city he knows someone who does. Stay at that persons apartment. Worked for me.

Rant up ahead..

Some DJ from another city asked my friend and I to open for his trap (lol) set via facebook, telling us that he'll pay us each for our time. I've never heard of this guy before and I didn't have anything going on for the night so I took up his offer. Everyone in the crowd was having a blast enjoying themselves while said DJ was sulking the entire time. After our set the crowd pretty much died out and wasn't vibing to his music.

My friend and I were waiting for his "promoter" to come through and pay us the money - I had somewhere to be around two am and I couldn't bother waiting around. I asked him to text his friend so we can get paid. Dude turns into a tyrant because I wouldn't close his set for him (lol) and then he proceeds to push me. I look over to my friend confused as to what just happened, so instead of pushing him back I told security what happened, fortunately they witnessed the event. Security confronts this over conceited douchebag and he claims that I attempted to headbutt him.

They shut off the music and he touches me again, I push him into the wall because at this point I'm pretty loving furious. Security comes and he tries to run out of the club and catch a cab. One of the promoters ended up giving me $20 to cab home with my stuff, when I leave the club hes outside with his friends talking to management. Dude didn't utter a single word to me and tried to act like the victim.

He only got paid $100 for the night and its safe to say he'll never have another gig there again. Anyone ever experience something similar?

It will happen all the time if you deal with shitheads. Sometimes it's hard to tell.

Made a new tune. Lots of pads like my usual stuff, but interesting drum programming and some g-funk inspired leads. Runs a 123 BPM.

Hah! I went to the Kompakt Popup store on Wednesday and Thursday.

Here's something I made today. And by made, I mean made completely, from scratch: A ~42 minute techno/minimal mix, including all the tracks in it, all today, in the space of about 10 hours (including the mixing). It was a good exercise

Good stuff dude.
