Dance

Yet another age question (blame lorna ><)

bloodfox — Fri, 12 Sep 2008 02:03:04 -0400

Hi everybody its me (again!) asking another question -.-;

I was talking to my sister and she said that i'd probley have to be 21 to go to the dance but i was sure it was all ages; but anyway, how old do you have to be or is there no age limit.

Thx so much Dylan (or bloodfox)

Another round of applause to the DJ's!

SORCERER — Tue, 01 Jul 2008 03:44:51 -0400

Every year it just gets better and better.
I was very surprised by the amount of detail that went into each set. The selection of the songs,some are unheard by many and the style of the mix boost/compliments each song giving the song a whole new life and perspective thus making it an original remixed set and not a copy "cat". lol
I have been reviewing countless original musics and remixes and these i'd say are truely one of the best examples.
Protocollie had made a downloadable set labeled "Anthrocon 2008 Live" on his Myspace.
That's my view on all this

VIDEOS!

SabahAlev — Mon, 30 Jun 2008 20:30:41 -0400

I'm looking to gather any and all videos to make an epic ac rave video. bonus points go to the person who video tapes the massive Caramell dansen line that was made one night. me and i friend got it started and I'd like proof.

thanks to all!

AC '08 Dance Schedule

SimbaLion — Fri, 20 Jun 2008 13:19:05 -0400

The con is almost here! Here is the schedule of DJs for each night. Remember that the dances take place in the Spirit of Pittsburgh ballroom, and run until 2am, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights!

New mix goodness.

Protocollie — Sat, 14 Jun 2008 03:28:02 -0400

I try not to be boasty but I'm really excited about playing for you guys at AC!

I thought I'd share some video of some new stuff I'm experimenting with. It's not perfect yet. I overused the cowbell. Needs less cowbell.

If you wanna come have a good time dancing non-stop, come check out my set, ya?

Dance Battle?

VegaGuy — Fri, 06 Jun 2008 19:14:22 -0400

Calling ALL Dj's!!! :3

If it is possible.....Think you guys could set up a small portion of the dance to do a small dance battle like thingie.

Could set up a big circle and then have a person step up one after another to a breakbeat or maybe a good song with a good beat.
Not technically stopping after each person but have them keep the line going once they themselves choose to be done or get too tired
( Id say just a couple seconds is enough for someone to bust out some moves.)

This is just a thought and Im the one throwing it out there.

Personally Id think Itll be awsome!!!

The Capsule?

UnholyRo11erMilt — Mon, 02 Jun 2008 15:22:10 -0400

Any chance it'll be coming back for another year? Really enjoyed it last year, very enjoyable for someone whose most active hours are between 10PM and 4AM.

Here, have a mix!

Protocollie — Mon, 18 Feb 2008 00:15:32 -0500

Don't want to try and turn the forum into the collie show, but I was thinking that I'd do a little shameless self-promotion since I doubt anyone going to AC knows who I am, ya?

I'm just gonna throw up a mix for you to download if you feel like it and get to know what a typical set I do sounds like, to either get you super-excited or allow you to plan in advance to spend my time slot at a room party. All about building the buzz.

Look! It's a link!

whee, Ferry Corsten and a track preview

draconum — Sat, 09 Feb 2008 04:38:45 -0500

So I just saw Ferry Corsten live in Detroit tonight (er, this morning technically??).

I personally solicited a review of some of my music which I gave to him on CD..

Anyway, this was one of the tracks: http://draconum.net/music/dj_draconum/draconum_plan_b.mp3

You may hear it (or something like it) during my set this year Hoping to get some comments back from Ferry though! (I should mention that he's a really friggin awesome guy, really nice and not snobby at all about talking to people after his set or taking pictures with them..)

Anthrocon 2008 DJ Line-Up

SimbaLion — Mon, 28 Jan 2008 13:24:51 -0500

Anouncing Anthrocon 2008's DJ Line-Up (in no particular order)

Alphawolf - 80s / Retro
Rory - Fursuit Friendly
Protocollie - Progressive house / Breakbeats
Pardus - Trance / House / Drum 'n' Bass
Ironheart - Industrial / EBM
Dragonboy - Breakbeats
BigBlueFox - Trance
Rigel - House / Tribal / Jungle
Draconum - Trance / House
Tek-Fox - Drum 'n' Bass

Many thanks to all those who auditioned this year. There was a lot of talent and it was very difficult to pick only 10 DJs from everyone interested. Please bear in mind this list is expected to be final, but should any unforseen circumstances require changes to the line-up, they will be anounced on the Anthrocon LiveJournal community and on the Anthrocon website.

MattPanther — Mon, 04 Feb 2008 22:51:05 -0500

Dance Suggestion

Gushousekai195 — Thu, 24 Jan 2008 16:46:00 -0500

I've always wondered if I could suggest a dance during the day as a panel, but I don't think I'm allowed and all dances are probably restricted to times when I should be sleeping.

2008 Dace Mix Demo's.....problems :(

fuzzyroo — Thu, 20 Dec 2007 01:00:17 -0500

sooo we got the demos from the dj and well we want to send them in it's still before the 31st so yeah we got time ^.^

so i had dj cmc send an email out to the addy that i thought was right but we haven't gotten anything back...so i'm not exactly sure which email to use :\

and if there isn't an email, what's the specific address to send the cd's
