Chatou was INVADED !!!!!!

Hey invaders,

What?!! You missed the invasion, this saturday ? No way !! I'm gonna tell you my invasion coz i've been INVADED !!!!

So saturday morning 9 o'clock, get up, opened my windows... damn it, it was raining... I didn't care, did the Woodstock people stay at home coz' of some rain? Let's go to Chatou (78), France! 20min later (i love living in Paris), here we are, the "impressionistes" island... still raining! 11 am, waiting, just a dozen of cars in the parking, ok let's buy some booze! 11:30 am, nothing new (but the booze)... started drinking with some random guys who told me that the festival would finally start at 2pm coz' of the rain. Anyway, got more time to drink, listen music...

1:30 - Here we go, doors open !!! Rain stopped !!! AHAH !!!!

We ran straight across aliens, mushrooms, flying saucers and some other strange things to get to the Main Stage where Sebastien Benett was playing. Just time to get another beer, and go as close of the stage as i could, the set starts! Amazing electro music, SB is totally crazy !!!

Sebastien Benett

Hooo, alright, still alive? OK, go to the underground stage for the set of Popof Live !!!!! Great time but a little disappointed...

Popof

From that stage we can hear the commercial set of Antoine Clamaran so, yeah, we gonna stay here!!! Hell yeah we gonna stay here coz Jeff Mills arrived!!

Jeff Mills

Amzing minimal set from the US producer !!! People are getting mad !!! Let's have a break! Martin Solveig is playing... what a surprise, maybe coz it's the end of his set but he's mixing loud electro music!!!!

Martin Solveig

Just arrived at the end of Jeff Mills' set and we welcomed Loco Dice for a great minimal set from Germany !!!

Loco Dice

Night's coming, music is getting darker and darker and ..... Dubfire's lighted mine... !!!! Just recorded for you 30 minutes of his set !!! Low quality but sounds grundge !!!!

Dubfire


So what d'you think? Enough, the end of the festival starts, Richie Hawtin (knows as Plastikman during some lives) !!! This English guy killed everything !! Just look at the videos !!! People were so excited, so i was !!! This guy is a king !! Go to see him !!!!




And why i'm speacking 'bout INVASION from the beginning is that the host of the festival was Sir Joachim Garraud (Space Invaders are back !!!) The best set of the day with the one of Richie Hawtin! Just look !







As JC said at the end of his set! see you next year, here in Chatou for... ONE MORE TIME !!!!
