The E-motion Club, where I spent most of the day, was high above the track with a stunning view of the port and the royal headquarters high above. The Prince himself made a visit, as did his watchful security guard. At least this time I didn't have a wine in hand.
This was a momentous occasion for FE, as we were on the stomping ground of F1. The industry heavyweights didn't think we could make it this far ... but at race number seven, here we are still going strong.

![]() When you think of Monaco, a few things spring to mind. Princess Grace, Formula 1, cheesy clubs, worse music and tax-free. This weekend Formula E was injected in that vocab list with it's seventh race and the magical events that lead up to it. I have to admit, from my perspective this was one of the hardest races. I played every night from Wednesday to Sunday. - The event officially took off with the glamarous royal gala dinner, held at the Monte Carlo Casino. I was the first, and probably only DJ to spin tunes in the casino room. The poker tables and pokies had been taken away. In their place round tables adorned with crystal glasses, silver candelabras and bouquets of peonies in blushing colours. Prince Albert was a guest of honour and led the charity auction. Natalie Imbruglia sang. Prince Albert's security guard said I drank too much. If one glass of wine constitutes as being an alcoholic, well then ... guilty.
The night ended with a private party on a boat docked at Port Hercule, right in front of the race track. - Tracklist: Fade Out Lines ( Marcapasos remix) - The Avener No Eyes feat.
