I played "The Resurrectionist" to a packed club...

...and it was brilliant.

Imagine 800 people dancing to "The Resurrectionst" (The Goez Ext Mix)
Basically, I dj a very big party here in Toronto. I was deciding which track
to play for the audience. I have the I'm with stupid promos, but I opted to skip I'm with stupid
entirely, and I am glad I chose "The Resurrectionist" as it's more high energy.
I introduced it as "some new Pet Shop Boys" and some people were really freaking for it, and
a few people came up later to ask what it was! With the bass, and that synth hook,
and the dancefloor lights going crazy, it was really quite a sight!

Another case of me loving the b-side more than the a-side, but whatver...
Anyway, just wanted to share my experience...

Good to hear!!
I think a lot of people don't like PSB before hand... do no why
Always nice to see people freaking out on the music you like :)
I've should have been there to watch the people go nuts!

But if people listening instead of having preconceptions, they actually like to music.

I have send 2 mp3 files to people who were curious but not fans, and they will now buy the album :)

good going! I did the same thing with "minimal".although with a smaller crowd

its always worth it if even one person asks who it is or watching people who dont know their music moving to the beat.

I wonder how people would react to integral. being a upbeat dance song is one thing, but to hear something so big and massive over a sound system must really be an experience.

it's a fantastic song and a good mix, very upbeat and infectious and when you've had alcohol it's even better :twisted: :D

I predict a riot once people realise what they were dancing to.
