This is great but I have work tomorrow - will it be archived on the site? (I see they have some archives, so I'm hoping yes.)

Losing My Edge! I wonder what time it finishes?

piscesx, Sunday, 25 April 2010 22:11 (fourteen years ago) link

3am I think, unless they managed to appeal the decision on their 4am license

you'd think the city would just be like "you know what? go all night, let it spill out onto the street, you've paid your dues"

cozen, Sunday, 25 April 2010 23:19 (fourteen years ago) link

discocampbell: @goncalop I'm at the Optimo set and the place is going mental! Crowd shouting, no room to move....simply amazing.

not sure if it's good or bad that his punctuation and spelling in a crowded club at 12.20 am is better than mine on a laptop at the best of times

nakhchivan, Sunday, 25 April 2010 23:23 (fourteen years ago) link

It's kinda like TRASH's end i guess.

piscesx, Sunday, 25 April 2010 23:25 (fourteen years ago) link

got the world cup final 1982 on espn classic, drinking a wee whiskey, and listening to this. pretty good sunday night.

Kennyboy13: Optimo queue at half12...the towel was thrown in after 3hrs of waiting http://yfrog.com/ei2czqj

cozen, Monday, 26 April 2010 00:10 (fourteen years ago) link

oh this is my jam...Amin Peck-Coda. Some kind of edit/mix/something? Cover?

dan selzer, Monday, 26 April 2010 00:17 (fourteen years ago) link

Well this one had to turn up, didn't it -- what mix of "I Feel Love" is it, though?

Ned Raggett, Monday, 26 April 2010 00:25 (fourteen years ago) link

"ultimate warlord"!! man if i were there i would be LOSING MY SHIT right about now

bieber benz or bentley (donna rouge), Monday, 26 April 2010 00:27 (fourteen years ago) link

That's for sure!

Ned Raggett, Monday, 26 April 2010 00:29 (fourteen years ago) link

It's a mental edit of some kind. They've played some famous edits tonight like greg Wilson's Talking Heads one. I guess it'll be on Soundcloud somewhere.

Never read the net going this nuts for a dj mix or anything of this kind ever before. Listening live and reading along with people's thoughts live on Twitter it feels like we're now hearing some kind of massive soon-to-be-legendary event happening RIGHT NOW!

piscesx, Monday, 26 April 2010 00:31 (fourteen years ago) link

Think if people liveblogged/twitter most Optimos like this people would be losing their shit. Seriously this club was something else.

Gee, Officer (Gukbe), Monday, 26 April 2010 00:32 (fourteen years ago) link

though they do seem to be hitting a lot of classics tonight.

Gee, Officer (Gukbe), Monday, 26 April 2010 00:33 (fourteen years ago) link

i am tuned in and dancing around my kitchen

The Macallan 18 Year, Monday, 26 April 2010 00:37 (fourteen years ago) link

Hahahah WOW that was an amazing switch.

Ned Raggett, Monday, 26 April 2010 00:39 (fourteen years ago) link

to the stooges?

nakhchivan, Monday, 26 April 2010 00:39 (fourteen years ago) link

(xp)

nakhchivan, Monday, 26 April 2010 00:39 (fourteen years ago) link

Yup!

Ned Raggett, Monday, 26 April 2010 00:39 (fourteen years ago) link

thought they were being serious here ha
we've always thought that optimo is a forward looking music club. we think we should go out looking to the future, so expect to only hear the latest basstep and uk funky tracks all night. maybe we'll chuck "stand on the word" on at the end just for old time's sake?*

mdskltr (blueski), Monday, 26 April 2010 00:41 (fourteen years ago) link

i know! it's like a greatest hits collection. in a good way.

Gee, Officer (Gukbe), Monday, 26 April 2010 00:42 (fourteen years ago) link

XD

nakhchivan, Monday, 26 April 2010 00:45 (fourteen years ago) link

XD

cozen, Monday, 26 April 2010 00:45 (fourteen years ago) link

absurd

Gee, Officer (Gukbe), Monday, 26 April 2010 00:46 (fourteen years ago) link

i wonder if everything they've played tonight comes from that crowdsourced list they compiled this week?

bieber benz or bentley (donna rouge), Monday, 26 April 2010 00:47 (fourteen years ago) link

The Macallan 18 Year, Monday, 26 April 2010 00:48 (fourteen years ago) link

has someone rapidshare'd that list yet anyway

nakhchivan, Monday, 26 April 2010 00:50 (fourteen years ago) link

It's very weighted in favour of that 250 list but there's still lots getting played that's not on it.

piscesx, Monday, 26 April 2010 00:52 (fourteen years ago) link

this is my favourite section

mdskltr (blueski), Monday, 26 April 2010 00:56 (fourteen years ago) link

sean paul was so sick

cozen, Monday, 26 April 2010 00:57 (fourteen years ago) link

Hahah and why am I not surprised to hear the old warhorse here...

Ned Raggett, Monday, 26 April 2010 00:58 (fourteen years ago) link

they played "temperature" when i saw them

bieber benz or bentley (donna rouge), Monday, 26 April 2010 00:58 (fourteen years ago) link

(So not a complaint of course!)

Ned Raggett, Monday, 26 April 2010 00:58 (fourteen years ago) link

This is awesome. Haven't heard Sean Paul in ages. Having missed most of this I hope someone's recording it...

toby, Monday, 26 April 2010 00:58 (fourteen years ago) link

Yeah, they played temperature the one time I went!

dan selzer, Monday, 26 April 2010 01:01 (fourteen years ago) link
