Ferry Corsten @ The Palladium
Lots of work being done on the blog this week but meanwhile I thought I would mention and shout-out Ferry Corsten’s new tour called “Once Upon a Night”. The details are mentioned here but basically it sounds a lot like Sander’s “Dusk Till Doorn” theme where the DJ takes the listeners through 3 main phases – sunrise, party, sunset. Rise up, rage, go to bed. Drink red bull, dance, pass out. Something like that.
Some of you may have seen Ferry Corsten at Nocturnal Wonderland this fall, when Ferry was busy promoting his new album “Twice in a Blue Moon”. Well that tour has passed now, and Ferry is busy promoting his new compilation which has 25 brand new unreleased tracks created specifically for his compilation. That is a ballsy statement but it means that at the Palladium you can definitely expect to hear a brand new playlist with new surprises and guests.
According to the description of the tour, Ferry will bring along 2 “superstar” guest DJs to join him for his new concept show. Since Nocturnal was Ferry’s favorite gig of 2009, I think one can definitely expect to see a lot of work being put into this Friday night show. I will be at the Lakers game Friday night and probably won’t make it out to this show (but definitely expect to be at Axwell the next night at Avalon). I am disappointed but happy that Insomniac is bringing Ferry back for another big solo production in Los Angeles. It’s shows like these that remind the world of how special Los Angeles is to the world of dance music – we get nothing but the best, month to month, winter or summer, rain or shine.
Be proud, Angelenos! Buy tickets here.
By the way, Ferry just re-released 2 things: Out of the Blue (which he plays at pretty much every single one of his shows), with remixes by numerous DJs including stormers by Tiesto, Simon Gain, and Hi-Tek as well as System F’s original album remastered. The second CD has a track that I have been hunting for since I became a trance fan – it is called Insolation and it was featured on Ferry Corsten’s Passport to the United States compilation. Here is the track, in all of its glory:
