Miles Maeda Madness!!

What a night!! I had planned to leave early but couldn't -- he just kept me going. There was some awesome variety in his set (deep, techy, jazzy, 'summery', 'hip-hoppy', 'jackin'...) and he even somehow managed to keep the dancefloor going with "Greenskeepers -- On The Line (Farina Remix)", which until last night I had thought would only do well as a chill-out track!





It was good to hear some of the popular stuff too (e.g. the Hodges track with Collette vocals). He even threw in some good remixes that I enjoyed ('Funky Rhythm', 'Pump up the jam'). Most importantly, it was good to see that Miles is such a down-to-earth and friendly guy -- he was walking around chatting to random people in the crowd!

The event was not overcrowded and there was a big fan that helped us keep going and going and going on the dancefloor. The venue (Tramp off Highlander Lane in the city -- very hidden and very "underground") and the sound system were fantastic. The crowd was friendly and just there to have a good time.

I've attached a 5 min video below, but you can only see Miles mixing (the crowd was recorded but it's too dark in the video).
