Yeah, there was this group on the main Sunday (around 6?) that were trying 
to get the crowd into it and they were doing a cross house/gospel/soul 
thing. The people sitting in the bowl looked like they were all 
experiencing general malaise at not hearing techno even in its most 
homogenous form. I think they would have been happier even with the most 
commercial trance. Don't get me wrong, the band was really musically 
speaking as far being musicians, but that why there's the Jazzfest.

It was definitely night and day from when Ayro got down on the main stage 
last year, even with all of the live musicians he had backing him up, you 
could feel the electronic portion of his set. And when he created his 
percussion patterns live and recorded them into his set on the fly (very 
nice).

It would have been cool to see Dan Bell in the underground stage this 
year..definitely one my highlights last year. I went to a loft party 
Saturday night at Nikki's that was hot as the freaking Congo, but the 
music was hot. Still don't know who was playing (too fried to ask any 
questions by that point. It went until seven but around 5:30 this blonde 
guy came with the craziest combination of sounds and structures that was 
exactly what the moment called for. At first everyone was thinking he had 
destroyed his laptop/speakers etc. but it ended up being part of the whole 
affair. Very refreshing even if the locale was not because of the heat. 
I'm going to drop all of the pics I took somewhere soon. 

All in all..really enjoyable weekend...

Peace,
Alex

P.S. Thanks to anyone on here that came out to the Ultradyne show on 
Sunday. Good to see a decent crowd for one of our shows in Detroit...

too much terrible vocal house IMO.

had it not been for the underground stage, I'd have skipped monday and
possibly sunday night.

sorry to hate, just being honest.
