Paolo Mojo, I hope you read this thread as we want you to know Adelaide appreciated the true quality dj-ing that comes via raw talent and not ego mungering that so many djs seem to think can pull them through... Anyone can spin records mixing cds into it and call themselves a great dj (or maybe its only them who think that)....

Talent is something ingrained, it is rare and it is in so few but you my dear have it and displayed something truly inspirational...

Thank you for the journey from the bottom of my heart... Please be in touch so we can arrange for you to come back really soon we would love to have you...

Thanks to everyone who contributed to making this one of my personal favourite sets of my 16 years of loving techno, electronic music

Another quality night at Sugar...Paolo was a star :) Pity about the 3am close...but it was really just a warm up for the rest of the morning. That is pretty much how I viewed his sets, it was a cruisy yet entertaining one to start at Sugar but oh my god did he blow us away at Cherry Bomb!! :w00t: I could not sit down for four hours!! Never have I been so intrigued by a DJ. He was constantly busy, I was happy just watching him mix. That is one talented man!!

I realised just how drunk I still was at about 5am when I stuck my tongue out at Paolo. :lol: But it seems he was amused enough to give me a kiss on his way out :wub: I couldn't stop thanking him for such an awesome night.

Thanks to everyone involved in getting Paolo to little ol' Adelaide. He would definitely be up there with Desyn and Chris Fortier...nothing but good things to say about him.

I really don't think there are enough superlatives in the English language to describe what I hear. Pity about the early close at Sugar but Paolo still managed to rock the packed house with some of the funkiest tunes I've ever heard.

The after party though was something else. I'd go as far to say Paolo's was the best set I've had the privilege of witnessing particularly in such an intimate environment. I've seen some awesome sets before from the 'greats' but he absolutely blew me away with the fluidity of his mixing and impeccable programming and track selection. Paolo had a great time and loved every minute of his stay here and I'd daresay he will be back again very, very soon.

Thanks guys for your fantastic support and helping us bring down some amazing acts to lil ol Adelaide :)

Next: Luke Fair - June 9 :w00t:

Yes our humblest apologies to all about that as we were only informed around 2.30 about that.

Due to noise complaints from residents Sugar have been under a lot of pressure recently and threatened with suspension of license. As a result they only found out that day that their application for an extended license till 4 had been rejected regardless of the public holiday. Treatment and sound testing is now underway to ensure this does not happen in the future. Unfortunately the situation was beyond our control.

So, on behalf of Fabric Promotions, Echo and the Sugar management we offer our sincerest apologies. Hopefully you still enjoyed yourselves and thank you all for your partying with us.

No apologies necessary! It wasn't your fault guys, and i'm pretty sure I speak for everyone when I say all the quality acts you guys bring over more than makes up for one little mix-up... :)

Well...it's lucky I like surprises!

Saw that Serge Santiago is touring around then...I would lose my shit if he came here. Also Benny Benassi is touring, whom i've seen twice, and has absolutely rocked it both times.

I doubt we could get either here knowing the $$$ they would probably demand (especially Benassi), but here's hopin' for some Santiago electro-techy beats... :|)
