I drove 600km, payed almost 1.50l for gas, and still was able to afford a ticket. I live on my own and budgeted accordingly like Ive done since my 1ST rave
Theres a progression to raves, Ive always remembered homemade deco since i was a kid being present , even in the dark and dingy the light wasnt just the people but the fun art.
Now if a promoter wants to actually find talent that is mindblowing and not a giglle to see for 5 seconds that brings a better vibe. Ive seen t countless times.
I also see the land of 3 rooms disappearing and that was great to revive back
I also think the crowd will be a safer crowd if the price isnt dirt cheap.
You wont get the meth headed intense looking crazy, im going to steal your shit then yell at you for accusing type crowd you see at what i like to call drug den raves
A place where you just grab as much djs as you can to give a party excuse so people use that as an axcuse to pump there blood system with so much drugs they can hide themselves.

This was more of a lets here fucking good music, in a good atmospehre with good friends, and if i was a GOOD RAVER
I bought it in advance like i do with toilet paper
you buy it before you have to shit , you dont wait till you have to shit then go im all out of money!

I dont make alot of money, and i can still afford was my original point. I didnt need to drink or do drugs to have fun.
I just DID

If you cant have fun at a party without drinking/drugs then your not having fun

And if you guys actually did a true price comparison, one party had a headliner with no deco, in a shitty venue, with probbably nasty washroom facilites . I dont know what the security was like so I cant say

This place was clean, washrooms brand new, it never got dirty, the deco was amazing in every room, a unique vibe full of positivty in each rom. There was a level of peace throughout the entire night. The music was done by all talented locals, no one messed up, and the dj lineup made SENSE. The tickets were available for 20. which means your paying 5 for music, 5 for deco, 5 for venue, and 5 to keep the place clean like it was the first 5 minutes of the party

But instead you guys decided to spend that money on dinky parties or weeklies instead of resting or doing free hobbies and then complained when its 40 at the door.

It blows my mind how much you guys make no sense
I'm feeling school time right now..

Witch party are you talking about? We were comparing our party who took place at the same venue ( that was used in the rave scene for the 1st time by the way ) 3 months ago with 2 headliners ( one from Los Angeles and the 2nd one from Toronto ) + 25 locals, there was deco as well ( from the guy at Bain Mathieu, Simon Spak ) . And ticket price started at 15$ : door price was 40$. I had to search hard to find that crazy venue by the way. But to make it afordable, you need something else than dj's who plays few times a week for 5$ cuz people won't come and fill the room ( 300 people ) .
I'm feeling spring!!! right now..

In most places, psychedelic trance culture is NOT ravey rave. I do psychedelic parties. Not raves. I'm not a raver. I think people are confused with that. Environment design is equally valued as music in my world.

I'd rather pay 3000$ for paintings that WE SIMPLY CANNOT MAKE OURSELVES, then a DJ that plays the latest beatport tracks or hits play on Ableton. Most "headliners" play tracks I know anyways. Woopie.
Not to say they aren't talented, but the point is, our local DJs can pretty much accomplish the same effect, however we simply can't replicate an artist's 15 years of psychedelic paintings. Buying some cheesy Space Tribe batiks at Psychonaut doesn't cut it. Julien Sayer is great, but he is THE ONLY painter in Montreal.

Maybe the fate of this event was mostly contributed to the fact that it was at the end of the month, and everyone has to pay rent ;) Maybe because there was a free dubstep show the night before ? Maybe Noah put a curse on me !? Who knows.

Anyways. I don't think there is a stable success model for making parties.
I've tried every possible combination with extremely erratic results. You should bear in mind that I've been making parties for 10 years now. 5$ or 50$, Headliners or no headliners, Painter or penis ventriloquist, every party is like hitting a randomizer button. You never really know what the final result will be.

Astral Projection .. 10 000 $ Profit.
Infected Mushroom .. same venue, same formula .. 30 000$ lost.

There is no predictable pattern.

pas d'accord.certain headliner ont vraiment le don de jouer des trucs vraiment puissant.je me rappelle du set d'electrypnose a la dimension X,ou encore talamasca dernierement.ils ont l'experience des dancefloor internationale et savent ce qui fait vibrer a grande echelle.on peut pas comparer au locaux de montreal (qui des fois jouent toujours le meme [ .ca ] veut pas dire que les locaux ne font un bon job,la culture psytrance est tres developpe ici.mais un bon headliner sait quand meme se demarquer du reste.

mais bon le choix es DJ pour cette teuf la etait bien,et convenait a l'ambiance des peintures.

sur l'ensemble ,cette teuf etait vraiment a faire.l'idee de ramener un peintre plutot qu'un musicien etait excellente,le psychedelisme d'ailleurs c'est autant l'esthetique sonore que visuelle !!

It's strictly a matter of opinion .. I thought Talamasca was CHEESE. *puke*
Electypnose.. Well, indeed killer. I brought him cause he is one of the few live acts worth bringing.
It's a matter of taste, but he is dynamic enough to make an interesting live set.
Seriously many of them just play their album in ableton or all the tracks sound the same.

Obviously a good live act is nice.
Really the point I'm making, is that if I had to pick a live act and have no deco OR deco and local DJs ... I take the deco.

And headliner doesn't mean the party will be financially succesful .. actually .. the opposite.
Every single headliner I've brought lost money. So basically, I've concluded that bringing a headliner means I'm willing to make a "donation" to the scene.

Electrypnose = 1000$ lost
Artax = 500$ lost
Polly = 4000$ lost
Chromatone $ Random = 600$ lost
Megadrop & Spook = 400$ lost
Artifakt = 800$ lost

Parties should be 40$ .. straight up.
So everyone can get paid. Well. DJs shouldn't be on welfare, and organizers shouldn't be losing their shirts all time.

ouais pour talamasca je suis bien conscient que ca n'a rien d'une musique tres complexe.c'est juste un moyen comme un autre de se detendre et de faire la fete,et le gars est chaleureux et espiegle et si t'avais connu ses premiers albums,tu dirais pas ca...

sinon justement en parlant de live act je ne comprend pas comment les promoteurs peuvent annoncer des artistes qui font du live act alors que le musicien passe son set a danser et a bouger les bras dans tous les sens en touchant a peine un bouton.electrypnose justement etait calmement devant son ecran et il semblait bien concentré sur ce qu'il faisait,ce qui n'est vraiment pas le cas de tout les live act que j'ai vu.

pour les 40 piece par rave,si tu veux mon avis,je suis d'accord avec toi.si ca peut me garantir que chaque semaine nous aurions un healiner de qualité et une teuf correct,je suis pret a preparer un budget pour ! ce qui serait bien c'est que le publique de montreal soit pret a prendre ce risque et fasse des efforts pour faire de montreal une des meilleurs destination pour ecouter de la bonne psytrance ! ca me desole les histoires ou les orga ne font aucun benef et se cassent la gueule.

If people spent a bit less money on alcohol and other drugs, they'd be able to afford the extra $10 dollars for the party. It's like an hour of minimum wage work. Is this what people think is expensive? A $20 ticket? Montrealers are just completely spoiled with cheap parties that they don't appreciate parties that a lot of cost and effort went into, that cost a bit more then for the ticket.

How many peeps attended, out of curiosity?


It was an art show AND a rave. It was only $20 for tickets. At the door was $40. It doesn't matter if it was $100, if you don't like it, don't come believe me nobody will miss your antagony. Quit yer whining.

Whatever.
I don't know you, or even give a rat's ass about what your opinion of me is.
I was just stating that I thing it's ridiculous.
I don't think it's a bad thing to have an opinion.

Oh and yeah.
Kindly go off and get bent.
Kthnksbai.

There's obviously something wrong because I don't know a single DJ / artist in psytrance that survives off music alone. Now I'm working full time. No time to make music anymore. That's - 1 artist

Anyway i dont know why you guyz making a big thing about it.
Vince c fendu le cul en 4 too make a party whit a deco that we never saw before (Thx Vince!!)
We make Psytrance party and we always try to bring it to next level, the problem is that in Montreal we are not enought ppl to make big event cheap. We lose money most of the time....
But what the ppl want? They want new and original party and we try to do her best to bring it to you.
Sometime is 5$ and sometime is 40$

BUT REMEMBER:::: WHAT MAKE A GOOD PARTY IS THE VIBE OF US.

Not the organisation, not the music, not the place.
We are Human we decide if we want to have fun or not.

We are the power, we are the vibe, we are one.
I'm feeling love lovers right now..
