Almost everyone in this city has an opinion on Diplo and Mad Decent. These viewpoints range from the overtly positive to the fiercely negative (see King Britt’s open letter to Diplo, somewhere on the internet). These opinions are completely independent of the fact that Mad Decent can throw a serious party.
Last year’s MDBP was a shit-show of epic proportions, so anticipation for this year’s party was intense. Mad Decent delivered the insanity of last years block party once again and somehow upped the ante this year, raging from the early afternoon deep into the night.
Accounts of the day are fuzzy for me (my roommate coaxed me into buying a case of Tecate, and 4Loko flowed like wine) but there were obvious standouts amongst the copious amounts of DJ’s/bands/performers/random people on stage. Todally Crossed Out brought the rage early on in the day, and they did an incredible job of setting the stage for a day of insanity.
