yes, I agree. I wasn't into richie's set either. He played in total 3 tracks that got my head bobbin' and they were songs that I've heard many times...vainquer, 69 and vapourspace. I thought out of respect they would let dmay play last. The crowd was into it nontheless, but I think richie would have impressed me and others more if he played music with melodies and deeper songs that were more than just 2 bar loops which he pretty much played. Taking nothing away from richie, I've heard rich play great house music for 3 hours with unreal acid tracks and techno by armando, mike dunn and phuture. listen to some of those archives...people like shake, theo parrish, buzz goree, and fannon flowers played more interesting sets. minto
