Minimal house works well.  i could see alot of people really enjoyed the minimal house set that gru-v and I played on the chill stage at SEOA 2

Microhouse would be a good one… Or some Bhangra(or whatever they call that housey indian stuff?) Anything that inspires the ladies to belly dance is fine by me…

I just thing the highs should be higher and the lows lower. Keeping it 140-150 all weekend bores the ear after a while. You gotta play some slow shit to make the fast stuff seem fast again. So what if its not what some people want to hear? I don't see ANYONE at the stage the whole time.

I definitely agree with everyone saying there is a need for some variety (mostly just in speed of the music).  Besides, it's not entirely necessary to keep the trance the whole time during the day.  Instead of a break from noon-6 there could be some different kind of music being played then like some minimal and prog (wouldn't have to be the whole time, but some).

Then we should have a breacore, noize, classical music, hiphop, top40 djs as well …. who cares….

For me personally chill area is an escape from the nonstop beats coming from the main soundsystem ….

Shit if people want house music on chill stage then I demand chill music on main stage  😛

What exactly is chill differs from DJ to DJ..some of the new tracks in Opus Iridium album have a steady baseline but has been categorized in the chill part of the CD. Does chill music have a bassline of some sort or is it only ambient? The chill stage at SEOA was anything but ambient..I was at that stage for 80% of the night and danced/listened to some really nice music that definitely had a steady bassline but was really soothing/chill to me.. All the Djs including a fabulous set from Robyo had a bassline..

At the end of the day, what is chill to me is anything which is uplifting and relaxing..to each his own though..

I'm only talking about the main stage.

LOL..hey..All the tracks played were Uber relaxing and soothing..none of the brain crushing stuff that dominates the scene in the midwest nowadays..:) just because the bassline is fast does not mean it is mandatory to dance to the music..you can still sit and just enjoy the melodies..:)

The really ironic part is that the SEOA out door stage was more active in terms of performances and dancing than the indoor stage at many times..which I loved..:)

And from what I have heard from people is that other DJs played faster music on the same stage as me later on..I dont think that people dancing at the chill stage instead of the main stage is a problem even though I have heard some people wanting to “herd” people into dancing only at the main stage..

People should have the FREEDOM to do whatever they feel as self expression ARTISTICALLY at these Underground/Alternative Culture events..if these events also become structured and dictatorial like the mainstream then they just “lose” their meaning imho..

But there's also rules that should be abided by (ie- decibel levels) so we can use the same place again :).  We should always respect the venue and its owners first.

Back on topic though, I don't think we should comform to any structure, but having a logical progression makes sense/sounds better.  There is a reason there are different styles of psytrance for different times of day/night just as there is a reason why progressive flows well in and out of psytrance.

Which was also inappropriate imho ….

Chill stage is called chill for some reason right? It shouldn't be louder/harder than main stage imho.

Let's not discuss this here.  It's in the past.  PM each other if you wish.

Talking about what happened in the past can help to avoid the same mistakes in the future  😛

It was dealt with and doesn't need to be discussed publicly.  Atleast not in this thread.
