These communal celebrations - the 10th annual Together as One at the Sports Arena, Giant Maximus in downtown's financial district and the inaugural Hard NYE in the arts district - reflect not only the strength of electronica as a franchise but the new energy that has been injected into the scene by the wave of rock-leaning "indie dance" artists like French duo Justice, DJing at Hard NYE. And companies that erect mammoth tents will turn a tidy profit. Four of the world's top 10 DJs will perform. Three festivals within a 5-mile radius will attract more than 50,000 revelers. on Monday night figures to be ground zero for the West Coast's continuing dance music explosion. LOOKING forward to a cozy, serene New Year's Eve, with a bottle of bubbly and maybe quality time with someone special?ĭowntown Los Angeles is definitely not the place for you. I love the positive vibe that courses throughout this mix, hopefully it will start the new year in the best possible way and adequately commemorates the 40th Anniversary of the Summer of Love. New Years Eve at Midnight we'll play my fave set of the year in it's entirety.īob Sinclar's 'Soundz of Freedom' "My Ultimate Summer of Love Mix". We played two parts, the beginning and the end, of his 'fabric 35' in August and tonight we complete it by playing the middle, tracks 6 thru 11.

It's obviously still hard for a club trying to book progressive dance events to stay in business and we wish them well in what ever moves they make, will someone else pick up the slack? They are the only downtown venue that has booked touring DJs that we have featured on this segment, including Kaskade and Mark Farina. It might be your first chance to hear him live, but it also might be your last chance to go to the club as they are closing on Tuesday, to 're-evaluate their situation'.
