People in the front with their phones in your face during a no phones party is insane to me lol. No respect

[@peacepuffz]

Addicts

[@andydejonge3972]

fr….😓

[@Hemeralopie]

No phones and everyone has a phone out 😂

[@adamp1440]

Kick out the turds

[@iain_nz.]

lol

[@trumanb4758]

I'm not into your lane musically but I respect your insistence on never doing recorded sets, your technical ability and your general attitude. I totally agree with no phones. They're a blight on the scene and have been since they became the norm at parties.

[@MARTINK4RMA]

Have stickers for the phone cameras, that sends a pretty direct signal that no filming is allowed :) Worked for our parties atleast! Not cheap if they are good quality, but worth it!

[@Nadame__]

He did this in Chicago when I saw him in December. Worked pretty well

[@stokbrood]

Here in The Netherlands (well mainly in Amsterdam) we have some clubs which put a sticker on your phone's cameras, even the front. It sends the signal over + reminds people when they take their phone out. Also people stick the stickers when back home on the back of their phone as a souvenir

[@hrmny_]

In Berlin that's pretty much the standard for the good clubs Makes it more of a "safe space" for people to just party however they like without fear of being filmed

[@kiqidj]

I think the problem with this at Hï is that you can walk around and go in and out of different rooms so if phones are allowed in the main room and bathroom but not the club room then it doesn't really work

[@Selinsille10]

Just put stickers on the cameras of the phones, like in all Berlin clubs :D

[@LucidPeen]

smart tbf

[@blockchang1401]

Barely any clubs ask this lol. I know for fact this only is being asked in Berlin. All other clubs I went to didn't have this policy 5 years ago. But it's a very good thing!

[@kevinmurphy7121]

Yes because a sticker will resolve this problem 🙄

[@LucidPeen]

@@kevinmurphy7121 they do if your seen with the sticker removed your thrown out and these like a sticker on a sticker to see if its been taken off

[@SkillGamingNL]

@@blockchang1401Some clubs in the Netherlands also have this, mostly techno/rave clubs

[@scotthunt3860]

Brilliant idea !! Bring back the atmosphere ! Phones have completely spoilt the vibe of a good Dance floor atmosphere!

[@ChrisBreezy992]

Glad I was clubbing when there were no mobiles. Maybe just get on the mic and "put your f****** phones away or I stop, you know the rules tonight" 😂

[@zacbuikhuisen460]

YEP AGREED

[@stewarty28]

Best times of my life when their was no phones

[@DavidSmith-qf3sm]

Me too as it was Nokia 95s and they were terrible in the dark, and that’s only if you wasn’t on the blackberry hype, which also had terrible cameras and I never was. Even iPhone up to three iPhone 10, were terrible in the dark.

[@darkstatehk]

No mobile phones = welcome to the 90s club experience kids. Watch and learn.

[@Berto2K]

you mean watch where dozens had their phones out? :p

[@ScantSquad]

Exactly what i was thinkin, we never had phones with cameras back in 98. Cameras if you wanted a still photo, no videos 🤣😂

[@ScantSquad]

@@Berto2Kyeah theres always been those ar$eholes around. Folk that don’t want to do as the artist or venue asks. Just look like a chump if u’ve been asked not to

[@R1PPA-C]

No phones + Ecstasy = 90s + Rave culture

[@superbitza3225]

You just reminded me of my grandpa, he used to say: "we did the same kind of stupid things as you do today, but the only difference is that we had no internet back then for everyone to see how stupid we were" and it makes a lot of sense now.

[@baptiste3896]

I was in Zurich and James nailed it as always. It was a real pleasure to see him perform and enjoy what he's doing #whodoesthis

[@schale4536]

His set in Zurich was crazy good

[@connor.galbraith]

Yeee - great set!

[@xsoraa6690]

heyyy I was in Zurich too

[@filmmakerforfunfilmmakerfo485]

Zurich’s set was crazy who does this 🔥🔥🔥

[@provo1337]

Wenner mal scho in Züri isch bini natürlich chrank, gopferdammi

[@carbonnickel]

I started clubbing in the 90s. Went out to enjoy the music and Djs. No phones just everyone dancing and having a good time. It puts me off going to a club nowadays cause all you get is someone holding their phone in the air instead of enjoying the night.

[@RandyRosadj]

8:34 wtf I thought no phone allowed 😂😂

[@chazwozza2662]

Yay no phones!!!!! I am a gen x and it makes me sad sometimes when EVERY person is taking video the WHOLE time someone is performing. Ppl still have their phones out but at least u r making ppl think. I think if you mention at strategic times that u r professionally documenting the gig and maybe just take a selfie or 2 would help

[@drinkashoey]

I like when people have their phones. I don't use mine, as I like to be present, but I appreciate they ruin their own good time and allow me to watch the night when they post them.

[@Farrin_Music]

It's very sad to see "clubbers" on the "dance floor" not clubbing or dancing! And in Ibiza! Long gone are the days of going mental for the music, and pure euphoria. I feel for the DJs. It's rude, wrong, and everyone is missing out.

[@atko3ify]

Really commendable to getting people in the moment and off their phones! Love it. Plenty of people said it already; phone camera stickers! Keep up the good work!

[@massel7464]

Was a pleasure to see you in germany!

[@wasabi333]

Sick video. I'm loving these. Maybe I can see you live someday.

[@endless9235]

Memories keep in your head, not on your Phones! And its so nice to see myself in the second row of the crowd in Freiburg, in your video. :) That`s amazing :) And see you in a shirt from my favorite Sportsteam is

[@lazy_dayz1]

Well that went well with the No phones policy .. I actually Had no phones, When we went raving back in the late 80s and 90s and early 2000’s. a much better vibe.

[@c-1802]

finally. Bring back the 90s and 00s atmospheres.. enjoy the moment

[@garymoffitt214]

YO!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 LFG REAL HYPEFAM CANT BE STOPPED!!! SEE YOU IN VEGAS THIS FRIDAY NIGHT AT ZOOOOOUUUUK!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@stevebrown9506]

I agree with this, I spent alot of time in raves in the late 90s and we just danced hard, none of this standing there recording. I came to see you in London last year and was not like the raves etc I use to know. Have a good time shock out and forget about phones.enjoy the music

[@djjoshuacarl]

Christ…. Is Another Chance ever gonna NOT give me chills, Sanchez really struck gold with that tune.

[@zaiologyy]

Ur cameraman is spot fkn on with the shots 💪👏 Good stuff!

[@thanos_k]

Sick episode!

[@tobiasettl5152]

Where in Friiiburg and Zürich the guy in front with the black stereohype shirt and both shows were crazy. Was a very nice James Hype week 👏👏👏

[@R3DICE]

After my last comment to another video from Germany, I am happy to see, that you finally had a decent german crowd. Keep up the the good vibe !

[@Bthelick]

Phones are only a small part of the equation. It's the culture that needs to change. It's celebrity culture. there are whole genres that are about celebrity, not music. and it's infected every form of dance music. It's now displayed like a concert as if it were a band. That was never the role of a DJ. There should be no "stage" for the DJ, and dancers should not be facing them, they should be facing each other and dancing. If we can get back to celebrating the music not the DJ , at parties not concerts, dance music could recover. Of course those making the stuff will need to make music worth dancing too as well, surprising how many dance 'producers' don't know how to make dance music.

[@tobid9288]

Great words. Completely agree!! Back in the days DJs were placed in a dark corner of the dance floor 😂

[@ConnorTostevin1]

@@tobid9288 The clubs here in the early/mid 2000's would often get celebs in to try and fill the clubs instead of good DJ's... those were dark times.

[@andreabarbera5444]

I'm afraid that without a serious form of enforcement it's going to be difficult to get everyone to keep their phones in their pockets. The sense of entitlement and just brazen incivility that some people display is just bonkers. Inform the public clearly beforehand and during the show, and have security intervene when someone decides the hold up their phone anyway. The best thing would be for clubs to start doing this as part of their regular policies, like clubs in Berlin. This should not be a mission that James or any other dj should have to put energy into.

[@WeAreSUNANA]

So cool!!

[@johneccles9051]

No phones went down like a lead balloon

[@blackforest1342]

we need the whole Freidberg set James!!!😂 So nice to see you playing in this cool town!👍

[@mariosnslow6434]

That's not worked well...

[@Samivermusic]

I'm an old fart now but grew up with the early rave scene prior to it going into clubs or places like the sanctuary (UK). I don't think our phones had cameras and everyone was there for the vibes and tunes only. Great days 🔉🎶

[@Dbrockjohnson]

same here

[@andrewjackson8089]

We never had phones! Never mind ones with cameras!!

[@paliyander]

8:35 no phones.... i see like 12 on that one shoot xD

Why would they take a phone to a night club? JAMES HYPE YOUBARE THE BEST. 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲💃💃💃💃💃💃

[@murph6559]

My man makes the greatest 90s hip hop remixes of all time. Biggie, tupac, dr dre, etc. all amazing remixes!

[@antoale97]

Respect for an artist, that prefers an happy crowd to one that probably thanks to all that sharing could make you famous and richer quicker. We need more Djs like him, that when the music stops make you feel that melanchony feeling of having attempted to one of the best parties of your life.

[@MACODJ]

Fantastic 😂❤❤

[@stevelockett2634]

We need more live sets please

[@DJDee27]

🤣Hi James, that's not Friedberg (that's where I live), that's Freiburg, just like it says on your shirt. Should you really ever play in Friedberg ... let me know and I'll do the opening act for you 😉

Great episode 🙌🏼 When the MJ remix will be released? 😊

[@abbbc]

Yes please!!!

[@DjRogerC913]

Just enjoy the music!! 🎶 that’s what it’s all about

[@effext1]

Of course everyone has their phones out. The club scene has long been commercialized and the djs are the attraction. They are front and center on a stage and have to put on a dance routine like a pop star. Dance clubs are now concert halls, where people go to see a musical act.

[@ThePolishDad]

@Lane8 / ThisNeverHappened I tell you some of the best shows I've been to have been no phones allowed. You experience the artists, the atmosphere, the music, the crowd so much more intensely. Do it!!!

[@pjf2193]

I miss early 90s raving ! For this reason, the only clubs I’d ever be interested in these days are in Berlin. Haven’t been out in Miami for 5+ yrs.

[@finn5205]

i understand the phone problem in ibiza especially because it's just so expensive to be there, however these people really need to learn to make one video and then put their phones away

[@StefanLouis71]

Noticed some struggle to avoid phone from parties. Would like to share my thoughts. People have 3 types of expectations. 1. Functional - I want to remember the good times I had, need to record this. I want to remember this music for later. 2. Emotional - I feel good seeing these awesome thumbnails in my photos 3. Social - I want to look cool to my friends showing off I was there. So the key is to address all these, replace them by something. I suggest an online Playlist with the recording on your channel, and perhaps a giveaway, like a "who does this" sticker they can keep on the back of their phone for a while. I believe this will go a long way as it is rooted in the psychologe why people pull out their phone. Good luck !

[@tiborhorvath8186]

Nice Bro 😎👊 only party

[@PartyAnimalDJ]

Hey James, love the Michael Jackson remix...for me personally I like sharing my mobile footage on my socials to show what the stay at homes are missing in the clubs....I'd hate a mobile ban. But after a few weeks the footage gets deleted to free up storage space and just left on my FB. Its my life ambition to come visit Hi Ibiza...maybe one day i'll be good enough to DJ there Lol.

[@ERWINRASEL]

Best way to deal with phones? Develop app that everyone needs to download in order to get into the venue like a ticket app but with a twist, once scanned it shuts phone off for the duration of the gig and nothing can be done lol...

[@brendanssound]

and you need the app installed to buy drinks

[@derbelgischefrank]

no phones..no money...

[@thehaydnpaterson]

NEARLY 1 MILLY LADS! also bring back the 20+ minute long episodes

[@MikeValentine85]

Look at footage of shambhala vs any other festival. Hardly any phones at all. "Hey Cindy this vibe is sick. You tik Tonkin too Michelle!?" I can't stand ppl looking through their phone instead of taking it all in 😂

[@jasonbroome9027]

Would love to see the set in full on KZbin, please...

[@ryanimal34]

8:43 No PhOnEs PoLiCy

[@wilhelm3184]

Phones galore though..

[@eclowejr]

Real DJ

[@blockchang1401]

Best clubs in Berlin make you tape off your camera and when you get caught filming you get kicked out and banned. Yes Berghain made the right choices with their unpopular door polict but it's with VERY good reason. I hope all of you can get a taste of real freedom, even if it's just one night x

[@davidr6398]

💯 agree this will be better. I had the privilege of spending my youth in an environment where smartphones barely existed. So glad about this on so many levels. Bring back the ability to get crazy without people filming you

[@ogsgetit]

You guys should do an edit- You’ve got… ur phone ou ou out ! Need tooo Put it away aaaway 😂

[@WaveE_YouTube]

The live hypefam rating is genius

[@4345ghee]

Nothing beats the Weiss remix of Feel My Needs. Shit slapped arse when it first dropped.

[@dazoconnor3128]

It's about time there should be more events with no phones, to be honest. Live in the moment. Nothing worse than watching your favourite DJ or band and right in front of you there's someone with their mobile out all night long it's quite annoying. Well done James ya boss lad .

[@CostaDin.Official]

THIS !!!

[@NorthwestLights206]

8:43 - influencers gotta influence I guess

[@checkthissongout]

Book Club Radio KZbin channel hosts events that ensure its all about the music and the vibes. No phones allowed and they want you to face away from the DJ and to each other and just vibe out. Their mixes are pretty good imo, so would wonder how a James hype set would go.

[@Does_This_Look_Infected]

Can we get the full video of this set? The first track was epic….

[@mixedbyscottthomas]

Could you have an area at the side or at the back of the dance floor for phone use. Keeping the front or main area of the dance floor phone free. Then if people wanna record a bit of the night on their phone they are out the way of the main dance floor

[@gabrielmetatron9086]

thank you!

[@AAlictg]

that is a ridculous idea.

[@ScouseHouseClassics]

Liverpool is still a great night out now but a social media fest which isn't for me. Late 90s into 00s were the best clubbing days in Town. Respect James

[@steakiefrags1866]

can we pleeeaassee finally get a 7 seconds release? Any of it? I love the remix so much

[@vandermannmusic]

Most clubs I go to here in Denmark puts stickers on your phone cameras. That is a very effective solution.

[@craigbailey79]

I'm so glad I was clubbing in the era when there was no phones everyone there just to dance for the love of the music 🙌🏻

[@ogpurpledaddy]

My parents love going to see Bruno Mars whenever he's in town and one of their favorite stories they will tell is how Bruno will tell everyone always to put their phones down and live in the moment. They never do. People more interested in proving they are out having a good time than actually having the good time.

[@stephangraenacher3454]

Dear James Hype this wasn't in Friedbarg but in FREIBURG Germany. 2 total different cities and parts of Germany. You even wear one of their football jersey and can not see the difference???? As If I would say I'm in Liverpool while in Manchester dude. UPDATE: commented before you apologyzed...nice move. Apparently you rocked it...unfortunately could'nt attend neither that one nore the one 1 week later in Zürich Switzerland...I hope one day I can make it to one of your shows. Being DJ myself for over 25 years I give you a 10/10 in every single episode... You are #1 Live performing DJ ATM...no one is nearly like you... not even sure someone ever did that. I wished I had those skills. UPDATE 2: We clearly can see how the "no phone policiy" worked ;) My little Idea: Add sometimes some "No Phone" signs in the Visuals for the show. After a while word of mouth will do the job. GO ON MAKING THEM WET DUDE:

[@mholin]

the common: fxck, in what town do I play today, don't know.

[@fishingculture9125]

YES NO PHONEEEERS

[@joshuabest1814]

Make some neon coloured Hype Fam stickers to go over the cameras. Sure people can peel them off, but it definitely sends the message.

[@tellerrecords]

actually, this is a great decision

Get those lockable phone pouches for your shows

[@djluko2]

maybe put a couple of people on the exits at the end of the night handing out prizes to guests who can show their camera roll with no photos or videos taken? drink cards, free entry to the next one, USB stick with some exclusive content, etc

[@johneccles9051]

The no phone thing make an intro saying no phones

[@elremineh]

Cut the music every time you see a phone and point to the guy holding it. You will have to cut the music once in the whole show and there will be no phones for the rest of it ahahaha

[@henryroberts9036]

There’s a great no phones night I’ve been to where the team on the door politely explain and ask you to get your phone out so they can put a little sticker over your camera. Different crowd maybe but it really works - everybody’s phones stay in their pockets. Maybe try that out

[@Leclicq]

I you put stickers on phone cameras it will probably work well. Like in Tresor or Berghain. The peer pressure is ramped up then :-)
