    Apparently it was Dj Gamall. Other highlights included Afronaught -
    Transcend Me, Marc De Clive Lowe - Move on Up , new Tony Allen project
    Psycho on the Bus (which is sweet BTW!). Nice to hear some of that stuff on
    a rock star sound system like that.

    They played essentially the same set as the last time they were in town, and
    it might as well have been a CD shuffler playing as far as the flow was
    concerned. I'm sorry man... people were having a good time and all, but
    these guys should be held to a higher standard considering the amount of
    money they probably walked away from that place with. Not impressed with
    your fancy hat dude, take some chances and break out some new (different)
    music.

    Yea i really liked the deep dubbed out head vibrating stuff Richard
    Dorfmiester was playing. The four to the floor stuff he played was nothing
    to write home about but IMO was pretty appropriate, he didn't stay out there
    too long and smoothed back into the dub thing like nobodys business. Very
    cool set.

    He rocked it with one of the new Vikter Duplaix Manhood remixes. HOT! cant
    wait...
