No, this is St93

Is the event 420 friendly?

House, deep house, DnB, dubstep. No trance, right?

No trance, I guarantee!

Thank you guys for organizing this block party.

I have to say though, it was weak. The failed rappers from the west (that one French rapper?! Really??!!) and the default bald black guy screaming "put your hands up", come on guys. Ok, the entry fee was only $3 with a local beer. I'll give you that.

I understand that given your budget, you can't get legit headliners such as Bassnectar, Billy Kenny, or Excision. It still doesn't mean that you should settle for mediocrity.

I've been to most of your events since I landed in PP and they were lit. This was by far the least entertaining one.

I'm not giving up on PPUG, but yall gotta step your game up. Fr fr

Apologies you didnt enjoy yourself...I have to say that the feedback that we got from over 700 party-goers on the night was extremley positive.

I would point out that the performer you mentioned was for 40 minutes of a (planned) 5 hour party and was designed to transition between the live band section of the festival into the DJ section. The rapper was actually Khmer - not sure if he's "failed" or not, but I thought he did a good job in the transition stage.

I'm assuming you stayed for more than 40 minutes as you would seen 3 excellent DJs after the first act

Unfortunately, as I am sure you know, we had a freak rainstorm that meant we had to end at 11.30pm instead of our planned 2am.
We attempted to restart after the first downpour, but had to stop due to safety concerns, which was extremley dissapointing for everyone - especially ourselves who had put several thousand dollars into the event.

Still, onwards and upwards and we hope to see you at our next event - I'm afraid we wont ever have artists like Bassnectar, Billy Kenny, or Excision, mainly because they are not our style of music at all. Even if they were, the fact that, for instance, Bassnectar charges upwards of $100,000 per a set makes him slightly out of the leaugue for independent promoters, without sponsorship in Cambodia

But if you like more underground styles of music, please come and join us on the 29th!
