He's on EuroDance now.

I really like this remix of this Japanese track:



Otherwise I never really got into Ferry.

Slow down you pencil chewing arse stain.

Oakenfold warmed up for U2, this we all know.

Slipknot have a DJ who plays jungle/dnb under starscream alias.

Perhaps maybe he was a fan of ferry for some weird reason and booked him?

It's ridiculous I know, but it isn't an impossible situation, hence why I asked for proof.

The same U2 who in 1991 had released electronic-influenced Achtung Baby, and the same Paul Oakenfold who had just produced dance-rock crossover favourites the Happy Mondays? Yeah, that's totally comparable. But one guy in Slipknot makes drum 'n bass, so apparently he might book a trance DJ to open up for his band.

You're a berk.

At least his haircut is better than Armin's [most of times]
On the music side, thanks but no thanks.

Ferry's my number one of all time. Nostalgia goggles or not, I loved his music back than more than anything i like now.

Especially stuff like Insolation (Original Mix) and In My Dreams (Album Mix)

I'm not going to say something nice in return if you don't mind.

And you are a pencil chewing arse stain.

Oh yeah. That's right it was Starkid who played for Slipknot and died after he made Crayons. I remember hearing about how that guy from Slipknot died. RIP Starkid.

I assume you are taking the piss. System may be a **** but at least he can take the piss well.

You on the other hand Ted, cannot.

Starscream is the DJ from slipknot. Starkid isn't.

You have the refinement of a ginger wheel-spin in a fresh pair of white briefs.

Never knew Moonman was one of his aliases. First Light was one of my favorite trance tunes back in the day.

I'm a big fan of Ferry. He always brings a lot of energy live. His harder sets back in the 03-04 "Punk" days were a lot of fun.

I love the "Once Upon a Night" compilations. Very dreamy stuff. His stuff this year hasn't been that great, though. Decent mainstream fare, but that's it.

As for his productions, I'm a big fan of "Rock You Body Rock", the Gouryella stuff, "Insolation", "Sweet Sorrow", "Where Are You Now (Moonman remix)", "The World '99 (Moonman remix)", and his remix of Adagio for Strings. There are a lot more, I just can't think of them right now.

I loved "Made of Love", it was just way overplayed.

Made of Love was good I agree. It's just I think the lyrics got too repetitive. But I agree with you it was good

I was in High School when it was released... wow. Now I'm a sophomore in college.

Wow, a whole two years ago.

Forgive me System-J.

Although this pertains to nothing important I thought back on what I listened to in high school and compared it to what I listen to now.

Made of Love --> Cosmic Love

Just thought it was interesting how over the years I went back in time in terms of Trance instead of listening forward.

Yeah that is interesting, considering how much quality trance is released these days.

And you know he went shit when people are discussing the repetitiveness of the LYRICS of his tracks

I Heart Ferry. Just Listen to his Live Sets, or Productions, or Remixes. He does it all.

Trance itself died/changed when Vocals took over, so thats when I slowed my listening in general. Don't blame it on Ferry. He has his own style and holds it down better than any other.

WHOOT!

*see sig*

Anyhow, Ferry is going through a lull. He career has been full of them. He blew up, faded away, blew up again in the mid-2000s, and has been fading away the last 2-3 years again. During these lulls his record box seems to never be updated as he'll play a similar set a year or two apart. Not much new stuff.

There are many people who don't like the direction he has taken. I can udnerstand that. But at the same time, at least he's doing his own thing and going the direction he wants to go and not going the route (at least yet) of doing things that cater to more of the mass-market audience.

When discussing Ferry one only needs to listen to his Trance Energy 2000. The guy actually pulled out some energetic sets once in a time in his career.

01. Impact - Inspiration (Behind The Mirror EP)
02. Ron Hagen & Pascal M - On Stream (Original Mix)
03. Alibi - Eternity (Innercity Mix)
04. Blank & Jones - The Nightfly (Transa Remix)
05. Moogwai - Voila (Original Mix)
06. Chicane feat Bryan Adams - Don't Give Up (Tomski vs. Disco Citizens Instrumental Mix)
07. Body Shock - Full Moon (Original Mix)
08. System F - Cry (DotNL Mix)
09. Luis Paris - Incantation (Original Mix)
10. Push - Till We Meet Again (Album Mix)
11. Deepsky - Stargazer (X-Cabs Remix)
12. Clubmasterz - Cyberdrive (Syntone Airforce 1 Remix)
13. Gouryella - Tenshi (Original Mix)

Yeah because his recent stuff doesn't cater to a larger audience. LOL.

Though I went gaga for his stuff back in the day (Albion-Air, Veracocha-Carte Blanche, Gouryella-Gouryella, Fire, LEF), I haven't been keeping up with him much. He's a very personable and amicable fellow though.

I loved the Albion stuff and System F (when I was much much younger). I haven't really played any trancey stuff at all in years and years.

"Air" and his remix of "Calling Your Name" were DOPE!

But what if that is the direction they want to go? Not doing so would be not doing their own thing then IMO.
Didn't many change directions already in the 90's and maybe even multiple times, or were they just more diverse?

He used to be one of my faves, I really liked his older stuff 2000-2006. Not really a fan of his recent productions but he still spins some good sets sometimes.
