    i believe he also did a 25minute set at the sonar pro event thursday-night
    (i am not 100% sure though) and his records were rocking..neptunes stuff, a
    love supreme, good old US paradise garage disco classics etc.....exactly my
    kind of sound... jeff mills was also killing it with a classic set that
    night..... kraftwerk etc..
