It is.

been mixing alot of tech trance of late.

Real good sounds. good vibe. Some of its alittle quick, but still don't mind it

We were mixing some at my joint Luke, that night/morning you came over. haha not that any of us would remember. :)

Yeah I love techy-trance. When I was in Melbourne, I ventured down to Platform One for their trance night. It was def an experience, but after Tydi and Marlo finished, one of the locals came on to play a real techy-style trance set. Sounded effing amazing! Not many vocal tracks, just real techy sort of stuff. Although Melbourne seems to be king of Australia when it comes to trance nights... they have at least one night each week of pure trance.

Infact, trance is coming back in Adelaide in quite a big way thanks to Frosty and Ben Gunner - Adelaide's 2 biggest trance promoters.

There's heaps of hardstyle stuff coming back, too, all at L!ve. Not that I'm into that stuff.

2010 is set to be quite a big year for trance acts in Adelaide :)

With the numbers that a few acts at HQ and St Pauls drew in, it's got the bigger clubs like HQ changing their lineups a bit more frequently, which is really good. I expect alot more trance acts to make it into the main room at the Q, which is awesome considering they have the best sound system out of any club in Adelaide (apart from the entertainment centre, which obviously isn't a club).

I'm sick of hearing the usual Warp 1.9 or Mars track being dropped at most clubs in Adelaide. Sick of it and all the commercial crap that gets flooded around here.

lol! i do recall some sounds along the lines

and also me having a paro attempt of operating a CDJ - which just wasn't happening.. haha! definitely need some practice there

the dubstep was gold though! and some fkn awesome tunes at live from the joker and local dudes

so they should! A while back Trance was massive, (always has been overseas) - I'm talking here in Adelaide. I remember the Tiesto gig at Heaven (it was a Chemistry show on a Thursday night) was completely sold out / full house! Paul Van Dyk had a huge following here too, and sell out just about every time. Good to see Trance being given more upcoming attention here.

Carl Cox even used to make much more of a regular appearance here in Adelaide - Synagogue, Heaven, Rise - wherever. The scene slowed down ridiculously a while ago. Some of the outdoor festivals are doing us favours in landing the bigger artists here in Adelaide :P , but it's just not the same as club shows.

i bought one of these shirts from John Digweed's Bedrock label:

love the saying, its brilliant! But it's definitely one thing the bigger clubs in Adelaide are not about these days...

Shit, Tiesto back at Heaven?! That's insane!!

I know trance used to be huge in the heaven days, with Dr Damage being much bigger on the scene back then. Top Adelaide trance DJ, but doesn't get the spots that he deserves these days :huh: (recovery at 58's at 4am onwards isn't cool).

Don't worry, all the kids will soon jump off the leather jacket/fluro headband/over-sized singlet band-wagon soon.

And Tydi appearing at Vodka Bar, Garage, etc is also a step in the right direction.

Sweet shirt, btw!

haha cheers guys, it's probably a pretty rare shirt around this city. Me and a good mate of mine bought one each - I shotgunned wearing it for FMF. So if you spot it, it's most likely to be me - come and say G'day!

That is one thing that used to annoy me - Dr Damage being given a 5 or 6am time slot at the clubs. For majority of clubbers, peak hours are 12-4. Even the druggers run out of energy & piss off home, and Damage comes on after that to play to an almost empty dancefloor!

Loved his Trance show on Fresh a while back too (don't know if he still has it?)- used to love going for a drive with that show cranking! always great tunes that i'd never heard before - and maybe a commercial trancer in between tracks to keep the non punters happy

Yep he still has his show - I was driving around the other week on Friday night and he came on for a 2 hour set from 12am til 2am. Was a very, very good set! A good mix of old school stuff and new stuff. Good to see Fresh still give him the time and place.

Most of the new kids on the scene have no idea who he is... they just think he's another dirty old DJ lol. HQ put him on a 10pm-11:30pm set on some Saturday nights out in the Soho bar which is a dissapointment, because no one is really out there at that time.

He's got it tough since the 'market' is flooded with so many new, young DJ's these days... as they say, everyone wants to be a DJ.

Damage is a pretty damn good DJ, so is Frosty and a few others out there....but your right Daniel that the market is full of young DJ's.....who most of the time just play the cheezy commercial crap

HQ put him on a 10pm-11:30pm set on some Saturday nights out in the Soho bar which is a dissapointment, because no one is really out there at that time.

thats f**kin terrible man... the guy is a gun of a DJ, and plays the stuff that rocks a big crowd - and he plays it bloody flawlessly too.

you dont even see him on festival lineups alongside the other locals - what a joke...

i remember one night having a chat with DJ Brendon - top bloke that guy. If there is any house/electro house DJ that stands out amongst the 3486 of them in Adelaide, its him. he was playing a 12am set at Earth (just after Heaven had closed its doors for a while, before reopening as HQ). He played a f**king fantastic house set, to a literally empty dancefloor. The first thing we asked him was "WTF? - where is the crowd"? and he replied - "boys, this is Adelaide"...

I'm sitting here in my hotel room in Sydney right now - just arrived here this evening for a short get away with a few mates, got a street mag next to me - there is something for everyone in the next three nights... D&B, DubStep, Deep House, Electro House, Techno, Commercial, 70s 80s and 90s, latino, Trance, Breaks, Hardstyle.... and it goes on. Punk, Metal Hardcore etc.

Adelaide's scene is in such poor form! The size of our city compared to Sydney is no excuse, there are plenty of venues = of which all are catering the same shit, as CRoNiC has said. blah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's the problem with Adelaide... we have plenty of venue's, but they're all too scared to play something different, so they stick with what they know is successful - either commercial, RnB, electro or both.

I mean, here's a quick list off the top of my head:

Marble Bar - Electro

Garage - Electro

Swish - House/Electro

EC's - Electro

Duke - Electro

Mojo's - Electro

HQ - Mostly electro (unless it's a Friday night)

58's - Electro (until 4am on Saturday night)

Swish - Commercial trash

Red's - Electro/RnB

Isobar - RnB

Star Bar - RnB

Crib - RnB

Dog n Duck - Electro

Earth - Trance/Prog

P J O'Briens - Commercial trash

Stag - Commercial trash/bit of electro

Austral - Commercial trash/bit of electro

The only venue's that play alternative/'unknown with the cool kids' stuff is:

L!ve, Dragonfly, Sugar, Crown n Sceptre and Apple Bar.

I know there's a few other venue's with other stuff (Electric Light, Enigma, Worldsend, etc), but that rounds up the most popular ones.

It's good to see L!ve taking a risk and putting out nights for the 'real' music lovers, with stuff like dubstep, glitch, hardstyle, psy, etc. We don't need anymore electro in Adelaide!!!!

Brendon always has played a flawless set! Good to see him a resident at the Q these days.

Oh and for all you trance lovers, there was an announcement last night that Ben Gunner is moving Subconcious to HQ... which would mean no more St. Pauls nights :blink::D

I has a new drum kit :P

look on you tube johnny rabb and td12

crazy.

iv been looking into electronic kits of late.

is it as user friendly as it looks?

nothing like losing inspiration while trying to get sh#* to work properly.

yeah its awesome your welcome to come and try it one day

i haven't even read the manual (only get get midi interface working)

I'd like to see it one day Steve. It looks pretty amazing and I've never seen a modern electric kit. Can't play the drums though so you'd have to demo for me.

    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
