So anyone out there also using UAD plug-ins? What do you guys think of it? Worth buying?

In the last couple of days, there were some comments and questions from local people here in Linköping, stuff that I never approved here on my blog. All this concerns the fact that I won’t be deejaying at Platå anymore. People are asking me why this is happening and what the real story is behind all of this…

Well, it is actually a bit complicated. I’ve been a resident DJ at Platå for 2 years. I’m sure that I did over 150 gigs in these 2 years and playing together with names like Tristan Garner, Sandro Monte, AN21 & Sebjak, Matt Joko & Michael Feiner, Alex Lewerentz and many more…

To be honest, I think that I’ve never experienced a better vibe than on Platå’s dancefloor, it’s so amazing. And what I love the most is that you really come close to the people and it’s like you’re a part of the dancefloor. They say all good things comes to an end and I felt that I reached as far as I could at Platå, there was nothing more for me to give, and wasn’t learning anything new, it was all the same, every thursday and every saturday. So since the beginning of 2010, I was asking myself…

Is this what I really want to do? What else is there?

Well, nothing… I couldn’t imagine myself deejaying anywhere else in this city. Then a friend of mine, Zutko, , also a DJ asked me to check out a Place called Nationernas Hus, a club mostly for students. We went there and decided to have a meeting with them and then agreed to run the next I Love House event there.

So with this upcoming I Love House party, we are doing what we’ve always wanted to do. We’re running our own event, our own night and it’s all about house music and sharing it with friends and all the other people that will attend this event. I have really high expectations and I think it will be sold out.

This I Love House party isn’t accepted by everyone and especially not the owner of Platå. So simply he didn’t want me to stay at Platå. I can understand that, but still, I’m only a DJ and I have high ambitions and goals, I don’t wanna be stuck at Platå for the rest of my life. I wish that he’d understand this… well honestly, I don’t care if he understands or not. From now on, I’ll be doing my own thing and I’m gonna be doing a damn good job!

My next gig in Linköping will be I Love House @ Nationernas Hus, 12:th mars 2010 (presales are available at Solo – Filbyter Gallerian), see you there!
