Despite working whole day on Friday, I know I have to go to 999999999’s show after I watched their shows on Youtube. And yes, I’m so happy to make the decision to attend this show, where it’s all about music, beats. and movement, which is exactly how I love it.
The venue, MLDR, has this underground music vibe with dark ambience, red dim lights, plush sofas near the DJ booth for VIPs, some round tables at the back of the room, projection of cool images on the wall at the front for adding the extra edge, a bar and of course, lots of space for dancing. I love how the dark environment brings the focus onto the music and movement, away from "to see and to be seen" territory. And most of the attendees are here primarily to dance or groove to the music. So it is a joy that we, as a collective, are just focusing on moving to the music, and I see some of the most committed dancers here, bringing up the heat in the room 👍 At this moment, I just feel dancing is the way of life.
999999999 is so awesome on this show. They hype up the crowd, create tension and anticipation effectively, and throw out the best drops. Seamless transitions, great timing of different sections of the song to keep our attention and our energy up, familiar songs integrated flawlessly into the hard techno beats, wonderful balance of vocals and techno sounds for that unique and emotion-stirring blend of music that connects to both the body and the heart. After an outing here, I can say this Italian duo DJ is definitely one of my favourite DJs, and I will definitely attend their future shows in Singapore.
