Everyone seems to have a DM being brilliant story, so what happen????
He was brilliant in December !!
It's all a matter of opinion of course, but he mixing was superb, he
started off with some old Chicago & worked into some more modern techno /
house.
The fact that it was *meant* to be a disco / classics set wasn't a problem
for me (or the friends I was with.) It was a pleasant surprise !

that was a wild night, indeed. derrick was a little better in 98 in
cleveland though, the first time i heard him. i think he played for like
5 hours or something like that. it was off the charts.
