sentiment and unique vibe remains the same.

party and the way all the DJs got to play back to back was
absolutely amazing! It gave the crowd something
completely unique and very special for the celebration of
10 years of EXIT. I had an amazing time and thought it was

until the morning and had a celebration. I felt honored and
proud to be asked to do this and I hope that I can get to
play at EXIT a few more times in the years to come.†Carl
