June 6 was the day the Goth scene experience was captivating enough, that you wouldn’t mind putting eyeliner for the first time. Filled with colors and overwhelmed with electronic beats was Soprano’s Club at Cataño. If the dark scene is your thing, this was the place to be around. Goth is undead. The increasing turnout outside of what we call mainstream nowadays, and even for a small band-less Endless Knights production, was amazing. The event WASTED gathered every age range and clique who follows this [sub]culture. There were many additions to the classic fashion statements.
Ranging from Metalheads to Vampyrii to Cyborg Goths, Soprano’s gathered the masses of the underground scene. Black ruled the horizon, however metallic and neon colors screamed from the fabrics its independence and sought after individualism. The parking lot hang out phenomena made its piercing domination, in which tours of over a hundred partygoers divided their time between the dance floor and bar to the surrounding outpost of a car with a blaring stereo playing either Puya, Metallica or even Cultura Profética to escape from the club’s claustrophobic milieu for a forbidden smoke. The continuous cycle of dancing-drinking-smoking continued all evening through which the flashes of the casual photo ops of crews and fashionistas circumvented the atmosphere[s].
WASTED brought by DJ Wanker had the essence and exclusivity of the [sub]realistic patterns of a mainstream-unknown scene that is here to last. DJ Wanker and his crew brought the house down with the new sounds from Germany and UK amongst others. In the blue tincture of the blacklights, the old classics of the scene, the new singles from his recent hunting trip to Europe, and the borrowed scenario in which to introduce them to the followers of his productions, wed in perfect harmony with the sinful intentions of the wasteland.
