The Vault Toronto Rave Forum _ 1st Generation _ Champions of Champions

Posted by: sigma Dec 27 2003, 06:30 AM

TITLE: Syrous 06 - Champions of Champions
FLYER: Concept by: Chris Smart. Work by: Terrence Leung @ Candor Printing


LOCATION: Cinespace Studios - Toronto [ Google Maps ]
DATE: February 18th 1995
ATTENDANCE: 2400+
AUDIO:
Kenny Ken
Andy C
Scott & Robbie Hardkiss
MEMORIES: The venue was a very important one for me. Back in 1992 Pleasure Force held the 'Looney Toones' rave here. That night changed my life (long story) it featured Rufige Kru with Goldie and NRG. Big up PF for that one. That was definatly a historic night for Toronto. I wanted to get that space again, Cinespace had so many massive studios inside its complex, i loved that place. I always thought high ceilings elevated the vibe at a rave. Champions of Champions was a memorable night. Fresh jungle all night long. Mickey Finn was originally billed but due to immigration he couldn't enter the country. We were lucky enough to get Andy C to spin.

This night was incredible! Andy C played a flawless jungle set moving from bassline to bassline. I remember thinking how wicked his style was back then. I actually prefer the Andy C of old. I actually remember Kenny doing an extended mix with the 'Take me up remix'. I had an incredible time at this party. Nice memories.

likely one of the best sets to date, Kenny and Reality where an incredible combo.


Can anyone ID the intro track for me? the one "renegade snares" gets mixed into?

Posted by: sigma Dec 30 2003, 10:43 PM

My favorite part is when Kenny drops the Lighter choon. Reality sets it off!
By far my favorite part from that set. MC Reality was w!cked.

the green lazer projecting those words onto the back wall...


fuckin wicked!

Posted by: Variant Jan 20 2004, 12:34 AM

the back of that flyer is sick. something about off-coloured landscapes that just gives you that sense that your gonna be somewhere different that night.

Champs of Champs was probably my favorite Syrous party.. In fact anything at Cinespace was my favorite party. I can't believe i ended up complaing about that venue for overuse.. wtf.

Posted by: sugar Feb 22 2004, 05:57 AM

This was a fun night. Except for when I lost it and told everyone I knew that we were broccoli.

Posted by: Murk-E Mar 31 2004, 09:46 PM

Oh man, Its the first track he throws down.. I have been looking for the ID to that and the track that goes.. "excuse me gentlemen is there a problem? yes officer as a matter of fact there is a problem.. apparently there are too many bullets in this gun"
