I ♥ TECHNO

I really do :)

Hellos! 

Tonight I'm just smashing out a quick blog, talking about the weekend I just passed in Ghent, Belgium attending the frigging awesome I ♥ TECHNO show !!! 

Basically, going to a electro-y music concert at some point during my exchange had been on my to-do list and yet again I can happily state that I have done what I've set out to do here!! Furthermore... well... I used to watch some youtube clips of electro/trance/dance music where the scene depicted would be some massive industrial rave party thing where the strobe lights were numerous and pretty and the industrial-sized venue is just packed out with people dancing - and I always thought to myself "I wonder if that could be me there one day". Well, yes, it definitely was me that night :D :D :D 

Highlights: Digitalism and Aoki. 

Where have Digitalism been all my life? Seriously!! Their performance has got to be one of the best - if not THE best shows I have ever seen. The image I'll never forget is the finale of their set - where the synth member of the band hustled over and stood next to the drum kit and smashed out the last amaaaaaazing beat with the drummer with one drumstick !!!!! There is something orgasmically intense about mixing real drums with synth. Wow. 

As for Aoki - well... that man seriously knows what he's doing - let's just say that. His set literally took my breath away :)

Kate, Alex and I sweated like PIGS inside the venue!! So hot!! But oh so good :D :D :D 

So far I am racking up a ridiculous amount of good memories on exchange ♥
