LIVE REVIEW ::: AVICCI ::: THE O2

One huge O2 arena, 4 DJ’s, 1000’s of house music fans unite!22 year old Avicii is about to make his UK debut..

Cazzette’s warming up with dance remixes of chart tunes with some recognizable lyrics. The crowd singing. Hardwell takes over for a 1 hour set, bringing some banging hard trance fillers to set the crowd stomping and the pulse racing.

Chuckie, one of the top Dutch DJ’s who’sgraced the house music scene for years, plays his huge beats, dirty baselines and his signature mixing in of a few classic Hip Hop anthems…House of Pain “jump around” 1000’s of clubbers jump in complete unison.

The arena falls quiet for 10 minutes, anticipation is in the air and then it starts….The matrix theme tune, the crowd goes wild, Avicii stands behind the decs, hands raised in the air, the set turns into a mass of video screens, The pyrotechnics go off, confetti covers the crowd, flames fly out of the stage, indoor fire works and Avicii kicks in his first track and it goes off!! His set flies by and every track leaves the crowd wanting more, raising their hands to the DJ like a god. Dropping in his own work “Levels” plays and sends the crowd in the dance frenzy.

One word EPIC!!! Avicci has given house music a total revamp, rumbling baselines, beautiful piano rifts and some quite emotional vocals in his new track “silhouettes” and is giving the new generations of dance music fans something to be excited about!! In terms of mixing and producing this guy is a genius and I cant wait to see what he has up his sleeve for 2012!
