[28/06/2019] Defqon.1 Weekend Festival - One Tribe

[brandonriley]

Whoever remixed "Live The Moment"... HOW DARE YOU?
Must be one of the AoC crew, kick is familiar.

Great Defqon.1, time to head home. Full review from me in a few days

My first guess was Wildstylez because of the kick

[kennymanson]

Love you all defqon weekend warrior
What an HOT edition!!

[DirtyTok]

Summary of the great DirtyTok's return to Defqon after 5 years.

Friday:
Overcrowded and moist everywhere in Blue tent, and people smoking everywhere in blue tent. Glad that indigo stage has a non-smoking signs everywhere inside the tent at least.

Was mostly in black tent on friday and saw Angerfist & Dr.Peacock awesome sets.

Was meeting a friend inside black tent on friday and it was his first defqon.1 and many first timers/noobs/newbies likes to bring a national flag with them and some people tried to light it with fire. Disrespectul.

Saturday:
Fucking too hot, so glad i used sunscreen twice during the day. Saw Heady with that new dragonborn track <3, Dana, Activator with Ruffian as MC!! Then the party really started at U.V during Frontliner and Da Tweekaz, always good mood.

Then off to RED to see B-Front and that was a big let down. Such a boring set but endshow was okey/almost good (expected more "anthem" like tracks).

Sunday:
One of the biggest highlights of the entire weekend was finally to see Ivan Carsten at Magenta. Such nostalgic tracks and the energy from the whole crowd was insane! Tat & Zat set was also epic. For sure Magenta stage the best music and best artists.

Then after some relaxing time in Toofargonia off to Gunz 4 Hire which was shit. They should rather play their qlimax set from 2011. But thats probably just me.

Then Sefa was good. Played many of the tracks i've been waiting for like Deus Vault, Leven is Lijden Release the kraken kick was featured in many edits, cool to hear. And the closing endshow just nice to see with the usual fireworks.

Overall defqon.1 has gotten bigger since 2014 (my last time), great organization although a little bit nazi like guards making people empty their water before going in on main festival area in 35° degrees. And then you have to refill at a overcrowded toilet.

Also noticed many germans trying to make food orders in german, whats the deal with that. Speak dutch or english u fuckhead.

And the price for one beer = 1 token and 1 token cost you 3€ which is insane for a 0,25 L beer. Thats the price here in Norway lol same goes for food. Probably spent around 250€ euros just for tokens.

And for the very very very last time Villain, shut the fuck up.

My rating for this years Defqon.1 = 7,5/10.

See you next year!

^ sounds like you should've stayed Magenta instead of going to red......

At 30+ degrees, gunz for hire are wearing suits, God

[Scitex]

Lol of course the set is prerecorded because it has to sync the fireworks Omg dudes!!!

[Romanian Hardstyler]

Talking about prerecorded sets, i think at least 40% from all the sets are premix, everything is a show now that has to be perfect, at least im happy that we have acces to all the new music with the livestream

Not really, almost all are mixed live (besides some LIVEsets, Powerhour, Endshow and things like that)

Indeed the era of "dj skills" is long over. Should just have one CDJ, not 4!

I'm starting to hate the new wave of frenchcore hype more and more.
NPC's on ecstacy just join the hype and go crazy about Sefa.

Besides few excellent tracks, the set is boring as hell.
Add premixed to that and what's less to prove that the wonder-kid is being milked like crazy.

i'd pay money for this idiot frenchcore and sefa hype to finally die. srsly. pre-school kids music mixed with gpf, i can not imagine how could music possible get any worse (well, yea, Sefa could always make a collab with MC Nolz but lets not go there )
