Having had a hell of a week in Calella, Barcelona with the drop dead gorgeous Delice boys for their Dream festival, landing back in London and then facing the manic Easter weekend of events left us a little stunned, our heart still very much beating for a boy in Belgium that had featured large in our five days of frolicking. Then with other issues consuming our Saturday resulting in tons of tears, we had pretty much written off our weekend , although with a certain D.J. sending through tempting & then pleading messages throughout the day, we eventually succumbed, making a dates with dancing destiny ala Beyond style. With a 6 a.m. liaison with our liege somewhat slipped, we arrived at Area to a considerable queue meaning it was close on 7 a.m. before we inside our most favourite afterhours, party people a-plenty already packing out the place, we needing to go no further than the Terrace room for our first source of energetic entertainment, Jamie Head in series jamming mode turning out truck loads of terrific tunes to tantalise. But it was the now opened main room that was calling for our devotion, our main man in pole position to deliver what would turn out to be the set of the year so far, elevating even higher
than the magnificence of “Midnight”, the exuberance of “Erotic” & the majesty of “Muscle”. So, finding our spot & being greeted by our beautiful Brazilian, Celso, it was mere moments before Steve Pitron popped his head over the D.J. both parapet & called us to catch the lyrics of this, our opening track of his tremendous turn, “…I’ll be right here waiting for you….” and he was, although with us now in our place, Mr Pitron let the music play like never before, delivering drenches of delightful dance delectations that had our emotions at full flow , tears of joy & happiness rolling down our cheeks as classic tunes were mixed in with modern masterpieces, “Offshore” simply blowing our mind, but so many more leaving us breathless in admiration of this scintillating Steve set, the atmosphere awesome, the lighting & effects exceptional and the only possible ingredient missing from this majestic mix of moments throughout this pitch perfect Pitron performance, was our man Mr J.d. who’s enormous energy & vitality would have matched ours every step of the way and would have made our towering two hours unquestionably complete. So, with so much more to say it’s “…ready, steady, go for the review…” (DISCO MATT)
