Originally posted by Orko That may be true, but sometimes DJs hit a sweet spot in their careers. Everything lines up, what they are into, what the masses are diggin, and what producers are putting out.

well said.

Originally posted by jon jon I fully know he's ancient but I don't understand how that's relevant to his current sound now? Or rather our appreciation of his successes? Is it so hard to believe that people can get better with age/experience? Steve Nash maybe?

Marco Carola has been a good DJ for -years-. I wouldn't go so far as to say his current "sound" (approach/style are probably better words) is "new"/"recent" (for him).

I'm simply stating that this guy deserves a lot more credit (and attention) than simply the last 6 months of his career.

BTW - what did you have for lunch?

that's fine, but Graham would...

Originally posted by The Highroller Literally everything I've heard from him this year has been top quality stuff.

ps. only coffee so far lol

Originally posted by rabbitjoker The guy has been around forever. Frankly I'm a little surprised with the cavalcades.

His style is quite new though...I don't find many DJs playing the blend of tech and house that he is playing either. He never ventures into that grimy house sound that I hate, it's all very deep and groovy.

I've been a fan for a long time, both for his old style and his new.

I won't miss his next return to TO.

Originally posted by Skipper it's all very deep and groovy.

yes, yet also VERY computery. What a fucking blend.

(ps. I also consider sarah an "expert", RJ you apparently weren't hungry enough)

Graham, that Bucharest set is dead on. Thanks for the heads up. He loops and warps Let's Go Outside's "I'll lick your spine" (accapella?) over another creepy track, it's pretty much the best thing I've ever heard. (around the 2h33mark)

Great track.
I can't stop listening to the part I mentioned in my previous post.

It seems the Marco Carola train left without me.


I'll hafta DL those sets and have another round at trying to foster the same level of appreciation for this man and his music that many seem to hold themselves!


Let's do it.

He's just as good now as he was years ago when he played FTWK Wednesdays.

Originally posted by jon jon haha are you making excuses for him? Bad weather!

I was actually thinking about you, Brad Copeland et al on Valentines 2007 @ Butterfly. What a night!! lol

keep it up boys, you're making my Friday

To be fair, he's got an entirely different sound than back then. I can see why a lot of old fans are disappointed...he's made the biggest departure IMO.

Jamie, I can't see you liking Carola now at all - 2002, definitely, but not 2008.

Yes...

lol lame cheap shot, I expected better Andrew.

(and ps. that night bombed for a hundred reasons, not just because of the weather lol)

Andrew, you and I should have some sort of musical jeopardy-esque challenge as best to settle this duel...

punchy!

Found an older set a few days ago. Not the best quality, but it will at least help with comparison.

Christ... For the record: I'm NOT comparing!!!

His "sound" has changed, yes - so has every other major DJ vs. 2001. Sounds evolve, period. Duh.

He's played in Toronto a bunch of times over the last decade and he has always been a good DJ.

Dude, don't worry.

Just put the set up, because its always enlightening to see where a DJ or artist, or any performer came from. A history lesson is always good.

Very nice!

After Sarah's comments to me, I'm very eager to hear his older sets, and see what I think of his sound then, vs. all those recent ones posted by Graham!

Big time "merci" Bobby.

RJ, stop comparing lol

Ok.

Originally posted by SuperJimbo Harsh man, harsh. I'm sure many DJs would kill to have a fraction of the global poplarity and respect DJ Vibe has, not to mention the amazing longevity he has worked hard to secure. You know as well as anyone that Vibe won't be the first or the last international (or local) DJ to play in this city and have a less than stellar night, whether it be due to poor promotion, an inappropriate venue, a goofy time slot, other popular competing DJs booked on the same night, bad weather, etc., etc., etc. I assume this night wasn't one of the nights you were referring to... Anyway, all good. Now back to whatever the point of this thread was about again...I forget...

That night was sick!
<3 mod club and Vibe!

8am at Amore (Italian festival/event)



*shivers*

I'd pay mucho money for the contents of that laptop...he must have an absolutely retarded catalogue.
