A State of Trance 450 / Decadence 2010

Aaron — Thu, 01 Apr 2010 18:57:31 +0000

mixMotion VJ’d and provided live-to-air technical support at Armin Van Buuren‘s A State of Trance 450 tour in Toronto as part of the annual Decadence party at The Guvernment/Koolhaus.

ASOT 450 included a live-to-air internet broadcast from The Guvernment nightclub, featuring top Dutch trance producer Armin Van Buuren alongside Arnej, Aly & Fila, Blake Jarrell, Sean Tyas, Signum and Simon Patterson of Van Buuren’s Armada Music label. A State of Trance is Armin Van Buuren’s weekly radio show, and to celebrate the 450th episode they put together a four city tour of Toronto, New York, Bratislava and Wroclaw. Decadence is the huge annual spring party at Guvernment/Koolhaus, it also featured David Guetta and Sander Kleinenberg right next door in Koolhaus.

mixMotion VJs were a seamless part of the carefully orchestrated program. We mixed and triggered video, including the introductory videos for each DJ with accompanying audio that went out live on the broadcast as well as in the Guvernment. Live camera feeds were also switched from the broadcast booth to the Guvernment so the live crowd could see Armin as he hosted the show live on air. The night was a huge hit, with the broadcast being carried by over 60 online stations and both venues being filled to capacity.

mixMotion created custom video content and our VJ’s performed for the Smirnoff Experience Toronto 2010 featuring Paul Oakenfold.

Smirnoff needed their imagery on the screens in a way that reflected the spirit of the party theme Warehouse Invasion. mixMotion created custom logo treatments and put together a package of material for the live VJ set. We also provided creative and technical consulting for the night.

The event was a huge success, as patrons filled the Guvernment nightclub in Toronto to party with Paul Oakenfold and resident opener Mark Oliver.

mixMotion was on-hand to VJ as renowned Dutch DJ Marco V rang in Chinese New Year 2010.

Local residents Manzone & Strong started things off for what turned into a huge crowd. Marco V delivered a hard hitting yet emotionally uplifting night of music, foraying across progressive house, electro and trance to get the crowd moving. Ranked #8 nightclub in the world, The Guvernment was decked out in Chinese lanterns and brought out two Chinese Lion dancers to celebrate Chinese New Year, always a big party in Toronto. mixMotion echoed the theme, adding iconic Chinese graphics and video to the mix.

Contact 2010

Aaron — Sat, 30 Jan 2010 20:55:29 +0000

mixMotion VJ’d for the annual trance party Contact at The Guvernment nightclub in Toronto, featuring Rank 1, Blank & Jones, Menno de Jong, Alex Morph and Mark Oliver.

It was a Dutch/German love affair at the annual trance all-nighter. Dutch trance pioneer Piet Bervoets (Rank 1) impressed with a deep opening set of moody, minimal music. mixMotion kept the visuals abstract using deep moody blue tones and sparse graphic imagery. The crowd was in love with Cologne Germany’s Blank & Jones, who kept it upbeat and played to the party vibe. Menno de Jong upped the Dutch trance quotient a notch, mixing long, blissful breakdowns that brought hands to the air. Sought-after German DJ and producer Alex Morph brought a luscious, ethereal edge to the night, taking things late before handing off to resident and local favorite Mark Oliver.
