Farleytime - Review Reported by tom / Submitted 16-04-02 14:56 One of those moments in clubbing that will stay locked in my mind forever: standing at the front of the stage at the Palace, the house lights blazing full up, the main dance floor still packed and Andy Farley dropping in his encore track, the Frantic theme tune (Phil Reynolds and Steve Blake rmx) As the refrain 'Get a life you drug addicts' assaults the crowd from the speakers, hands are thrown in the air, trainers leave the ground like the feet inside them haven't already been dancing for 9 hours straight and the Palace just rages Then, for the first time that I've ever heard at the Palace, in rolls a second encore, this time Andy giving us Nick Sentience's new remix of Eamonn Fevah's 'Your Turn' and it happens all over again, euphoric breakdown followed by mayhem followed by 1,800 people praying that the track will roll into a second breakdown please please please so we get to do it all over again just one more time... Farleytime: this was a night which was dedicated to a man who's been at the forefront of the hard dance clubbing scene for years, a resident at Sundissential, Frantic UK, Storm and Progress, one of the most respected producers and remixers around and now given 3 hours to demonstrate to us why he's got to be in the position he's in. We slipped into the Palace just as Ed Real was finishing off his set where the main dancefloor was almost full and the crowd were already in full on party mode as Ed handed over to Tom Harding. I managed to sneak half an hour in the DJ box while Tom was playing - an English DJ who's for some reason relatively unknown in the UK but is hugely popular in Holland where he's resident at the legendary HQ's in Amsterdam. He's got a really energetic style behind the decks, not only dancing away (who says DJs can't dance !) but also his style of playing involves continually cutting back and forth between tracks - it was really inspirational to watch him, switching the cross-fader to drop in extra bass lines but you'd never know it was happening from the sound output unless you saw it. Cue me going straight back home after Frantic and spending 6 hours on the decks failing dismally to do the same thing One of the standout tracks that I heard for the first time that night, played by both Tom and Andy was Revolution which I think is one of BK's upcoming releases (I hope, least that's what someone told me !) - this is going to be huge Frantic residents Spencer Freeland followed by Phil Reynolds were next in line to play and you'll have to excuse me just a little bit: we originally had someone else lined up to write this review so at this point instead of sitting by the side of the dancefloor dispassionately making notes and awarding the DJs marks out of ten for mixing, tuneage, crowd control and dress sense as I usually do , I was in the middle of the dancefloor and losing the plot just a little as Spencer drove the pace of the night up another notch from Tom Harding playing just the kind of hard trancing set that I love. SpencerTime (aka the Timeless 1st birthday) is on the 18th May and he'll be taking requests from harderfaster readers for tracks to play that night, see our chat forums for more closer to the time Leading on from there Phil Reynolds played a set towards the trancier side, even playing a couple of tunes such as Y.O.M.C.'s 'In my Mind' that I've got in my collection that before I never really thought were that special but when played out in the Camden Palace they transformed themselves into monsters - time to re-evaluate those ones ! Now I have to admit I was a little bit worried beforehand as to what Mr. Farley's set would be like - at the last Frantic that I attended back in February I found his playing just too hard for my tastes, although I'll be the first to admit that it could possibly have been due to me caning it the night before and then attending Heat for the 8 hours directly before Frantic which had left me just a little bit the worse for wear. As it turned out though my fears were totally unfounded as Andy played a set which left noone in doubt as to his talents, one minute breaking the dancefloor down with tracks that were absolutely rock hard as nails, the next tearing us back up with euphoric hard trancers like K90's 'Red Snapper', always staying the right side of 'too hard' and by the end leaving the crowd screaming and cheering for more, another huge Frantic call for an encore.. and in the end he even gave us two Big thank you as usual to the Frantic crew, Will, Robyn and Amanda for having us down, FYI the next Frantic is on Sunday 5th May (Bank holiday weekend ) - for full details click here.
