Extreme reports 1993

1 Year BonZai records
#####################
Name: 1 Year BonZai Recordz !!!
Where: "The Extreme" (Affligem/Belgium)
Date: Friday 1 October 1993

For the ones who are from Belgium, I don't think I've to
introduce this label, for the others, Bonzai is the
biggest and absolutly the famoust record label here in
Belgium, so it's rather normal that there where many(too
many) people presented at the "1 year Bonzai party"
Like I've said before, the party was at "The Extreme"
and for the ones who know that dancing, it's to small
for such a party. (maximum capacity for 2500 people).
We've had to wait more then half an hour to get in, but
it was worth it!! When we were finally in we've had our
12 inch. Yes, that's right. The first 1000 people who
arrived at the party got a 12 inch with some new Bonzai
recordz, called 'The Anniversary Rave' ofcoz.

The Dj's that night were...
- Lenny Dee (Industrial Strenght - New York)
- Paul Elstak (Rotterdam Recordz)
- The Fly(Bonzai Recordz(the BIG boss of Bonzai recordz)
- Franky Jones (Cyberdelia - D.M.C.)
- The BountyHunter (Bonzai)
- Deg (Bonzai, B.W.P. Experiments, Rave Explosion)
- Frank (Zolex, Globe)
- Franky (Cherry Moon)
- B.B.Bell (Say No More recordz)
And warming up by Dj. Steel.

I can't tell much about this party, coz they didn't say
who was playing the recordz, I mean there was no
presentation, too bad.
There was also a live act, from "Dream Your Dream" (from
the very famous Bonzai record, better know as
jjjjiiiiiihhhhhaaaaaaaa)(The same guys gonna do a live
act on MayDay 5 !!)
The live act was pretty good, nothing special to say about
this one.
I suggest if they organize a "2 Year Bonzai Recordz" party,
that they do it in a much larger place, coz it was really
too small!
But after all, it was one of the better rave parties in
Belgium.

Conclusion
----------
Nice party but they were to many people for such a small
place like "The Extreme".

Belgica Wave II
###############
Name; Belgica Wave II
When; Friday 19 November 1993
Where; The Extreme, Affligem Belgium

The Guest List
--------------
"The Belgica Wave II" only invited Belgian Dj's, here's
the list
- Dj The Fly (Extreme-Bonzai Recordz-(Ex)Cherry Moon)
- Dj Frank (Globe-Exterme-(Ex)Jerry's-WareHouse-
Antler Recordz)
- Dj Marko (La Rocca - La Chapelle)
- Dj Double B (Extreme)
- Dj Stephane (Music Man - World Party II - Two Pieces)
- Dj Rezi (Music Man - IT)
- Dj Roel (Bonzai Recordz - (Ex)Jerry's)
- Dj Marko Baily (La Scalla - Blankenberge)
- Dj Jopan (WIF recordz - Bonzai recordz)
- Dj Dave (Luik)
- Dj Peter (Tienen)
- Dj Christophe (Globe - La Luna)


The Live Acts
-------------
- DREAM YOUR DREAM (BonZai Recordz)
These two guys have already give their show at the
EXTREME on the first of October at the "BonZai
Anniversary Rave". (They are also one of the live
performers in the next MayDay!)
They have already created the following hitrecordz:
Dream Your Dream, Dreamland, Belgica Wave Part I,
Traxcalibur, Belgica Wave II.

- Krid Snero (Say No More Recordz)
This guy is the creator of the remixed giant hit "White
Line".
For the first time in Belgium live on stage the master
of the pumping hardcore KRID SNERO. So as you know this
will be his debute on stage in Belgium this is a unicum
and a privilege for the EXTREME and the BELGICA WAVE.

Ok, now my opinion about The Belgican Wave II.
When we arrived at the party-place "The Extreme",we were
very surprised only 3 cars where on the parking place!
So, we waited a couple of minutes in the car. After a
couple of minutes more and more cars arrived, so it was
time to get in. The entrance was 300bfr, when we were
finally in the dancing, we stand for another surprise,
there were only 20 people in The Extreme, so we waited
again (I think about an hour) and then it began. Oh boy,
there where more than 1500 people showed up in that
hour.)
All togheter I think there were about 2000 people at the
party place.
Now for the music, I can't tell you which Dj has played
good or bad since there was no presentation, I only know
"Stefaan" (Music Man) and I can tell you he played VERY
good, very good songs and and excelllent mixing-
techniques.

- The live performances: were also good, Dream You
Dream was very good and also Krid Snero too (altough
"Dream Your Dream" where the favourites)
- The lights: nothing special to say about this, just
the normal lights you can see every week in the Extreme.
- The Crowd: VERY good, almost everybody was on the
dancefloor dancing and flipping all night long...

Conclusion; A very good party, we just arrived a little
bit too early :-)
(9/10)

Name; BonZai Users Rave
When; Friday 3 December 1993
Where; The Extreme, Affligem Belgium

The Guest List
--------------
- Cj Bolland (The Rave Signal - R&S Records)
- Miss Djax (Djax Up Beats - The Netherlands)
- Robert Leiner (The Source - Sweden)
- The Fly (Extreme - BonZai Records)

- BB Bell (Extreme - Say No More Records)

The Live Acts
-------------
Only 1 live act this evening,
"Phrenetic System"

Well, after the succesfull "BonZai Anniversary" Rave,
"The Extreme" decided to do another BonZai party, well
here it is, "The BonZai Users Rave".
Well, as you can see on the guest list, very good dj's,
so this must be another terrific BonZai party.

The Dj's
--------
- B.B.Bell; hmmm nothing special to say about this one,
played good.
- Miss Djax; Hmmm not really my style of house-music she
played.
- Bountyhunter; Not as good as he used to be.
- The Fly; Wwhhoow very very good !! Excellent (it was
about time they not played some "good" recordz :-))
- Cj. Bolland; Great!
- Robert Leiner, Franky Jones, Deg (Haven't heard them....)

The Live Performances
---------------------
- Phrenetic System
Nice! one of the best live acts I've seen.

Conclusion
----------
Well, like every BonZai rave in The Extreme there were
again too many people for such a place (The Extreme can
only handle 2500 Ravers). I think there were more than
2500 Ravers hehehe. At a couple of moments I even have
had some problems with breathing :-).
I find it strange, The Rave Called "BonZai Users Rave"
but I've heard only 2 or 3 BonZai Recordz ????
Like every BonZai rave I'm gonna say the same....
The Extreme is just too SMALL!
My Vote for this Rave; 7.5/10

Vooral dat ze spreken over 2500 man en de club niet groot genoeg was.
Nu krijgen clubs van 500 man met moeite nog genoeg volk binnen.

ik stel me de vraag of een Bonzai oldskool Rave op deze moment nog zou aanslaan?
Zou alleszinds wel leuk zijn.
Al het werk van Bonzai uit de begin jaren, met Yves De Ruyter, Franky Jones, The Fly, Bountyhunter, Zolex, etc...

Langs de andere kant, de mensen die toen uitgingen zullen nu intussen wel rond de 30 zijn, of zelfs al iets meer, dus de meeste zullen wel al kinderen hebben, en een carriere, en ik weet niet wat nog allemaal, dus of er veel van het volk dat toen actief was, nog verzameld kan worden, dat is nog maar de vraag.

Extreme - Telefacts / Jambers - Uitgaansleven vlaanderen ...

Bericht door BelRom »

Hallo Extreme'rs,

Vele jaren gesleten in die megaclub van toen ... jammer, mis die stek wel!
Ooit werd er in de jaren 90, ja héél ver intussen ... een opname via Jambers of Telefacts gemaakt, ik denk over "uitgaansleven in vlaanderen" ... er kwam toen sprake over de portier van vreemde nationaliteit (kickboxer) die ofwel beschoten werd of zelf iemand neerschoot ...
Nu ben ik hopeloos op zoek naar die opname van die avond ...
Tijdens die opname werd er ook net mijn lievelingsliedje afgespeeld die ik al vele jaren aan't zoeken ben ...
Het is een echt zweefliedje met goeie beat en vrouwelijke "gekreunachtige" stemmen (al klinkt dit zo raar gezegd zijnde) ...
Heeft iemand enig idee of het via Jambers / Telefacts was & de cruciale vragen : wanneer ongeveer uitgezonden en/of nog beter => namen die me kunnen helpen bij het zoeken van dat ene vinylplaatje ...
Enig idee, mail gerust in dit topic of bel_rom @ hotmail dot com

Thx !!!

Bericht door Psytox »

die bonzai nights waren subliem in extreme... misschien zelfs wel beter dan de Mondays. Met Fly en Franky Jones en YDR en de rest van die bos mini-bomen daar :mrgreen: En soms ook wel loeihard, als ze het in hun vel kregen of guests a la Liza 'n Eliaz vroegen... damn. Als ik nu soms gasten hoor praten over "harde muziek" waarmee ze dan jump en zo bedoelen, dan moet ik toch es lachen. Vergeleken met wat ze begin de jaren 90 in de clubs spelen zijn da slows verdorie :D
