Andy Moor @ Shine Nightclub (Vancouver, Canada)

Posted in Music on July 3rd, 2009

I don’t ask for autographs; I never have before. I’m -really- shy about being a groupie, but given the opportunity to meet Andy Moor, creator of my favourite trance anthem of 2009, shyness wasn’t even a thought. Neither was politeness apparently, having chased him out of the DJ booth. (So sorry on that.)

There are a lot of great people in this world, but what impresses me most are those who show kindness. Andy patiently suffered my gushing while I scrambled for something to write on. Having taken forever, he wandered off, but made a point to come back to me moments later. I respect that a lot. Thanks so much, Andy. Means the world.

The autograph’s been scanned, printed, and sealed under my CDJ’s platter – a reminder of why I’m in music.

P.S. Show review? Sweltering heat and technical difficulties aside, UK trance legend Andy Moor packed the walls of Shine Nightclub in venerable Gastown, Vancouver. I know not a single person who left without a smile, even first-time trance listener Christopher Chow.

P.P.S. Faces is OUT RIGHT NOW on Audiojelly. Buy, buy, buy! Photos are up on Flickr! Visit, visit, visit!

Spot on Review Jeremy!

I bugged him twice that night, once when he was walking the floor just to wish him luck, and a second time for a photograph. I must say, the iPhone ‘no flash with camera’ concept did disappoint me, but the fact that Chris Chow was able to snap one of Andy & I made my night.

Was a pleasure to have been up right up next to the Booth with You & Chris. Keep us updated on upcoming events in case i miss the news feed.

Now off to buy Faces. I’m wondering if i should throw the Ben Gold remix into my Purchase cart as well?….

@Faiz: Likewise. I’d grab the different remixes, depending on how you when to drop it, but I think I’ll always play the original … it’s just so wonderful. <3 I melt for the piano.

[...] If mechanical, grinding rhythms, heart-stopping bass, and tons of KILLER half-tempo breaks are your thing, I can’t recommend anyone better. Many thanks to VIVID Entertainment for hooking me up with tickets and for putting on so many awesome shows this summer! (Andy Moor, Andy Moor, Andy Moor!) [...]
