Are you sick of trying to decide on the BIG New Years eve party? Trying to coax your friends to your party pick. Are you like us and thinking maybe its better to just spend New Years with your nearest and dearest mates and then maybe crank on down to Shores on a New Years Day or something...

Well thats how we feel so we've dropped our end of year party on Dec 29 so we can cap off the year with a bang without having to burn half our friends on NYE. I hope you all approve. We've taken 6 months to plan this show just right and I think it will be a party that will really get a lot of guys out of retirement and having a ball. Same deal as the Paul Van Dyk Beach Party... as ridiculous as this lineup already is, if people get on board early with ticket sales there may be act additions once first round tickets sell through.

Quick note to individuals... no free list to this unless you are playing pretty much. Hope you all understand.

If you want to buy tickets in bulk, ie 5 or more then I'll happily catch up with people. Til the end of October there will be300 $50 VIP Area passes available. Full lanyard and souvenir credit card style pass. A nice reward for those that get on board early and support the event.[/b]

Please just PM eclipse if you'd like to negotiate access to VIP's, fee free tickets or to help with the event in any way.

Agree with this. NYE always seems to be a let down for some reason for me..that's why this year I'll be having a quiet one with mates, so it's awesome that this is on a few days beforehand

People enquiring about VIP's. Can you please put calls or sms's out to friends first before you PM me. I can't stress enough it will help me out a lot if people get together group orders of an absolute minimum of 5 tickets. No way I have time to drop of 300 singles, haha.

These will only be available for a couple of weeks but you certainly all have some time up your sleeves =)

I'm just glad it's announced so you all can start thinking about it yourselves and its not just me and the other Eclipse boys trying to put the puzzle together.

We've been planning this for a very long time. All I ask is that people please be kind to my nerves and all jump on board early with ticket sales as they have done with PAUL VAN DYK'S BEACH PARTY. First round tix are very reasonable at $47+bf. Lets make this a really special day in Adelaide.

Noisia are so on it right now....they're blowing up in the same way Pendulum did two years ago. Their tracks are fuck-off high quality productions. Really looking forward to their set.

Yeah seriously running around like crazy at the moment getting all the nuts and bolts of these events nailed down. We're really passionate about our music though so even though it's time consuming, it's totally satisfying as long as we keep what we're striving for in mind.

We're really confident this is going to be an amazing experience, particularly for anyone that has ever enjoyed any kind of drum&bass or world class turntablism. I mean what self respecting raver hasn't rocked out to Mampi Swift, Calyx or Teebee or doesn't want to check out Noisia or fucking Q-Bert???

The lineup, venue and general positive feeling amongst the dnb scene leading into this gig are as strong they could possibly be. I really encourage people that aren't into this kind of stuff to give this one event a try. We might just change your mind about a few things.

Weather - fucked. No-ones fault though. Gotta wonder about the future of december daytime parties.

Venue - Decent.

Commix - Unreal. Sick mixing and tunes. Off the richter really. One for the heads. I only wanted to mc for these guys and was lucky enough to do most of their set until I was on the point of collapse and D-Tech saved me. Sucked about the heat cos they would have had people rockin at any time.

TC- Great mixing. He makes almost the worst tracks in dnb though, and his set was mostly all his own stuff. He got a lot up and dancing though, what he does he does well. I was cursing no pass outs at this stage. Jakes was pretty good..

Calyx and Teebee - Wicked. They played stacks of classics and even some Calibre and Intalex. Looked like they were having fun. Got me dancing (well standing and watching really)

Logistics - Unreal. He had the moody UK selector look down pat. Great mixing and loads of wicked tracks. Really, really enjoyed his effort. Nice bloke too.

Mampi's 'tech problems' were caused by him ramming up the gains as high as they could go. It's that simple. It was fine for Logistics and for Noisia ( from reports). His other tech problem was not being able to mix. It's not like one or two people are saying this. Whether or not that was his fault I don't know.

I was sitting near the tech booth to try and escape the gastliness and I don't think anyone was in there. About 10-15 minutes after Mampi cranked it I saw one of the guys come running over and duck in there and turn it down. The sound was mashed from that point.

He might have got strong crowd reaction, and maybe that is all that really matters, but he also played just as the sun went down so people could actually start dancing. He was blatantly terrible but obviously people enjoyed it, probably the same people that missed Commix so horses for courses innit. As long as they had fun I am happy for them.

We left halfway through Mampi so missed Noisia.

Such a shame about the heat, there were some great sets played and venue was cool, but there wasn't ever more than a couple of hundred dancing the whole time I was there.

Oh and Griff as always was quality on the mic!

Well done for all organisers on this one. It was a great day, something for everyone in there.

haha yeh i'm sure that girl you 'woke up' behind the speakers will thank you later...

I was a little peeved about there not being a public water refill point, but at least we managed to keep hydrated by asking the bar staff for refills from hoses behind the bars.

Absolutely loved K-O and Levitators, they both made a really great vibe around the hip hop stage...

I seriously don't buy the technical issue thing for Mampi. Technical issues don't start the second he stepped up and finish as soon as Noisia got up there. Dodgy needles and decks dont make mixes go out of time either. It was a shame because I've seen Mampi at his best (altho that way a few years ago now). No dodgy needle or two could cause the constant mistakes he was making.

Yep noticed the change in sound at that point.. my thoughts are the compressors on the PA were turned up and that surpressed half the sounds coming from the mixer. it was all clippy & distorted.. defenately sounded like mixer was in the red (and my Xone 92 sounds digusting when it clips too) , compressor was working overtime and the amps would have had to been hot enough to BBQ on for sure!

fucking sick day though!!

Awesome day, minus the heat... But it's not like you can control nature.

I actually didn't listen to all that many acts! I was too busy running around like a headless chook and eventually had to leave to go to a prior engagement.

As much as I did see, though, was great. How many people came through the gates though? I was wondering how mnay wouldn't bother coming out due to the heat?

Numbers would be hard to judge as heaps of people were out in the parklands chilling in the shade during the day, or went home to cool off.

When I left at 9:30 both areas had large dancefloors with heaps of people spread out all through the site. Was probably the best indication of actual numbers and it was well busy at that stage.

Fucking awesome event.
