Cruise from Pier 40 to Union Square
June 4, 2008
It started on a sunny sunday and ended on a dark monday. We all lined up eager to board the Queen of Hearts at Pier 40 for a ku-deta & reSOLUTE boat tour of NYC and a special Clink showcase. The lineup was pretty big and brought in some Clink’s biggest talent. Afternoon Coffee Boys (live) was definitely one of the better moments on the boat. Tony Rohr and Tim Xavier, the pirate duo hijacked the boat with there mezmerizing minimal techno beats. O and at one point they played this loop that said “techno,” listen carefully in the video below:

The party came to an end when we reached the pier around 930 after Tony gave the after party destination. Everyone headed to Bar 13 at their own pace. Insideout and Alexi Delano pretty much tagged team it through 1ish with great dynamics between the two and with more appropriate for their dark destroy everything minimal techno, maybe they should start up a duo called “Night time Tequila Addicts”? (just a suggestion)
The only problem with the afterparty, which became apparent after spending time on the dancefloor was that most people truly thought we were still on the boat. I could feel the waves sending me from left to right, even though bar 13 is on 13th and University place, so pretty far from the water. In fact, I would say I got boat sick at Bar 13 and apparently so did others from the reSOLUTE crew (no need to say more)
Moral of the story: Everybody was in a great mood, the sun was shining and the Manhattan skyline really is… blurry, (check out some more of the pics), after parties are fun and wild and, best of all.. there are more boat parties coming (next unmissable one is on June 15th with the Italoboyz presented this time by BLK market membership).
Also keep a look out for the next reSOLUTE party on June 14th, its coming up quick and will be with Pheek (check his interesting blog) who is coming back to play for them after their DEMF party… This weekend will be crazy as well with a variety of options on Friday June 6th from Andrew Weatherall and Adultnapper at Bar 13, roof parties, or also Half Hawaii (Bruno Pronsato & Sammy Dee) with Jan Krueger and JamesPatrick at the Bunker. Then Sunday is another tough choice between the rhythmism party and a minimoo party with Guido Schneider as well…
