-- What would one expect from ATB live?

What would one expect from ATB live?

So hes coming in a couple weeks or so. Not a big fan of, well, anything he has done. Has anyone seen/heard him live and have any input? Thanks!

Well his Summer Rave 2000 set was pretty good but that was back in 2000. I'm expecting you'd hear a commercial-type sound but still tunes that will get people moving. I'm sure he doesn't have the best mixing skillz but he is a pretty decent DJ...I would go see him.

k.....here we go.....

go see another deejay because atb is commercialized dance rubbish and his own productions are GARBAGE. Personally if i went to see him.....i'd stand there at the front with a sign.....saying ATB = SELLOUT. mwahahaha.....grow up ppl and go to see REAL DEEJAYS......atb does not qualify as one.


Posted by capricorn15 on Aug-19-2002 18:46:

i saw atb live last year around may time, he rocked, i dont remember any tracks he played because that was over a year and half ago, but i dont care what anyone says, he rocked, and the cd that he mixed, clubbers guide to trance rocked too, i would recommend him

Just because he plays a style of music that you don't like, it doesn't mean he's a bad DJ. He just plays tunes that aren't to your taste. I don't like him a lot, but if people go see him and have a good time, good for them.

I don't hate him. But his mixing is not good nor is the track selection.

I was talking about torontotrance.

Your entitled to your opinion of course.


Posted by EriK_V on Aug-19-2002 19:48:

He is not a bad Dj and his mixing doesn't suck. He plays popular tunes and, IMO, keeps the crowd going. You won't really here any of that underground stuff from him. And also, IMO, all off his productions are unique. Everything i have heard of his is different from the bassline to the high hats, etc. Go see him, have fun. And people, stop saying cheese, it makes me nauseous.

His productions maybe commercial but have you seen him live? And those tracks a-aplz posted are stuff he used to play. Sure, he'll have a few commercial tracks in his set but I'm sure he'll play stuff a lot of the other big DJs are playing nowadays. And if ATB doesn't qualify as a "Real DJ" to tta, who cares? (no offense to tta)...go see him if YOU want to go see him


Posted by torontotrance on Aug-19-2002 20:16:

pffft....like i would go see atb.......rofl...sorry if i dissed your fave deejay trancedj.....i know to see atb is your lifelong goal...but don't let me get in the way.


Posted by tranceDJ on Aug-19-2002 20:19:

Yeah, me and wookie are gonna go make 'ATB brothers alliance 2oo2'...and no, you can't make the 'ATB haters alliance 2oo2'. Anyway, I don't like ATB much but I think he's decent and it's dumb to tell people not to see him cuz you don't like him.


Posted by LadyLuck13 on Aug-19-2002 20:22:

Plaptop, go see him...if not just to get out and have fun for the night. It's at least something other than sitting at home. =)

No need to flame him for saying his thoughts people, he stated he wasn't a big fan. Sometimes doing something is better than doing nothing at all and sitting behind a computer.

Go and have fun, enjoy the music and let us know maybe what you thought of it?

Take care

=)

me and trancedj..constantly do this for kicks....rofl....we meant no harm......we laugh so much about this issue.

Dancing Dude

ATB - 9pm (till i come)

that tune is amazing, how original, does any other tune sound like that (except don't stop & sum others of his which sorta spoilt the originality of 9pm), its a quality tune which comercialising didn't spoid because it was 2 good, it brought me into trance!!!!!!

don't judge the man before ya have seen him live, or because his one and only good tune was comerilased its wrong


Posted by netw3rkd on Aug-19-2002 21:11:

And two nights ago I was listening live, the mixing was bad in my opinion..so was the track selection.


But go see him if you wish.


Posted by KilldaDJ on Aug-19-2002 22:05:

Thumbs up ATB is cool

ATB is great imo, his set @ summer rave 2000 rocked
well, it certainly got meh movin and his productions arnt far behind, some of them suck, but i like most e.g let u go, 9pm [till i come], dont stop
his performance @ trance energy was good too, i wasnt there, but i have the set+video, the mixing wasnt bad, but he did fuck up a few times
in my eyes, hes a great dj


Posted by Biohazard on Aug-19-2002 22:13:

Get his clubbers guide to trance 99, probably one of the most uplifting CD available

I didn't think it was that bad. He's nowhere near the quality of the big boys, but he's better than no DJ at all.


Posted by Martin McG on Aug-20-2002 01:24:

ive seen him play once and he was alright! cant remember any tracks he played though, dont think he played any commercial stuff though! he played a tune that i was apparently singing along to, that just shows how wasted i was! but watch out for him whilst hes DJing he was jumping up and down behind the decks and shaking his head in a very disturbing manner but hey he seemed to be able to mix although he was prolly extremely dizzy! hilarious to watch, not advisable to copy it though as the alcohol went to my head very quickly!


Posted by jdjd on Aug-20-2002 03:31:

cmon ATB has spun at Trance Energy they can't be that bad
actually I really like their track selection, they play a variety of stuff but it's usually good.
I have to say their mixing is kinda bad, but that doesn't bother me very much.
ATB at Trance Energy 2001 is a good set check it out!
you guys cant say a DJ sucks because you don't like the one set you have heard by them, the DJ's play what they are paid to play!!

w3rd, mate. i personally hate it when some people try to force their opinion on me: i think this dj sucks ass and therefore you shouldn't listen to him, can't you understand it, i think he sucks and therefore you should conform to my opinion.

i'd go to see atb live because of his 2001 trance energy set, which was OMFG amazing IMHO. so energetic!

so get out your "IMHO's" and "my 2 cents", people, and stop forcing your opinions onto others.

plaptop, tell us afterwards how the party went, 'k?


Posted by E-Trancer on Aug-20-2002 08:03:

ATB is a good DJ, he mix hard stuff sometimes.

Don't be confuse about productions and djing...


Posted by shac1234 on Aug-20-2002 14:09:

I've never seen ATB live, but the few sets I have heard he always seems to talk over the tracks, like "1,2, 1,2,3,4", or "bass", or just yelling, does he always do that?


Posted by NooKLeaR on Aug-20-2002 22:31:

The only time i have ever heard ATB mix semi-good was on the Trance Nation America 2 cd. His set from TE 01 or 00 wasn't good...
