Seriously Tydi!
Will Twible is serious about dancing. With his focused moves combined with TyDi’s awesome set last night at the Family nightclub, it made for one night you wouldn’t want to miss out on!To be truthful, I go to the family a lot. I’ve seen a lot of DJ’s live, followed many sets and watched my favourites with anticipation only sometimes to be let down. TyDi is one of those DJ’s you don’t ever get sick of.His showmanship always amuses me because he always knows how to work his crowd. There’s normally one or two songs that stick out in my mind when I see TyDi and last night he used a mixture of new and old songs from his 2006 album and some more recent ’07 tracks. But for me last night, my favorite was an oldie “Jump the Next Train’” with a remix from possibly my favorite German duo ever “Kyau and Albert”.When Tydi played this song, really, the crowd just went out of control including myself. His euphoric trance style sent everyone into a “OH-MY-GOD-I-NEED-TO-DANCE” energetic frenzy. Last night his set was so elevated, just like I believe real trance should be. It had a higher energy level than normal, most likely because he had a break last week and wanted to come back and absolutely show Brisbane what they missed!Maybe I’m TyDi biased because I’ve seen almost every set of his since this time last year, but it seemed to me that he laid the perfect foundations for BeXta to come into her 1am set and totally pump her crowd. At the beginning her music was a little too simple for me which was a little disappointing because after such a good set, you really just expect bigger and better things.The crowds response wasn’t anywhere near what TyDi had received, but then again, after settling into her set, the crowd had returned to its former glory. I think the reason she sounded so different to Tydi’s set is because she takes a lot longer to change technique and sounds in her songs. When it comes to TyDi playing, every little bit in his songs are all happening very fast, the tempo is fast and the melodic rifts always have that traditional trance sound.But like I had expected, BeXta did bring it! She got a lot faster and started using a lot of progressive/electronic sounds with a faster rhythm.I’m still more of a euphoric trance fan and so long as TyDi continues playing around with this area of dance music, I’ll probably always enjoy his sets just a bit more. On the other hand, its always good to see some interstate acts who show us Brisbane-ites what they know. I must add it’s even better to watch a woman work at what is usually named a mans job!
