"Fire" from Atmosfera and Plastic Fantastic

Another event in the series of parties from the label Atmosfera thundered this past Friday at the club "Virus". First of all, it's worth noting that this time the most fundamental shortcomings that had been present at the previous party were eliminated. They made two entrances — an invitation-only one and a regular one — and set up good sound, which can only please and makes you think things will get even better from here. Although, of course, there's nothing to be done about Virus's "pass-through" dancefloor, so minor inconveniences were still present.
Once again the place was packed enough to feel it with every pore of your body (it was on the hot side); the atmosphere was set from the off by the epicentre of the Atmosfera movement — Fonar. One should also note the superb set by DJ Volodya, who as ever stood out with his distinctively original musical material. Kolya, lively and full of hits as always, didn't leave a single person standing still on the dancefloor. Utrenniy Koreets had an excellent feel for what the people on the floor wanted.
The foreign guest Lewis Paris, though he readily engaged, was evidently not sufficiently rested after his journey to "set things unforgettably alight", so he spent almost the whole party in the DJ booth, contemplating the surrounding space. You couldn't say his set was anything remarkable — forgive me, music lovers and fans — but it fitted in harmoniously with the sets of his colleagues. In the end he was pleased with the people, the club and the party, and cleared off to sleep at the hotel.
In the chill-out, at first Mixmaker relaxed everyone beautifully, but the unexpected appearance of disc jockey Grigory shifted things towards spirited dancing. Grisha was replaced by Grad, who took up a musical position neutral between Mixmaker and Grisha, yet still kept people dancing.
As at "Nebo", there was a moment of performance. Golden people with fire in their hands drew mysterious figures in the air, "ignited" the crowd and reinforced the conceptual nature of the event.
