But even the dance music pillars in the UK are begging to differ. "Paul Oakenfold Worst Essential Mix ever?" read the byline at the Radio 1 website promoting Oakey's Essential Mix last weekend. A far cry from his 'Goa' EM effort in 1994, it was roundly slated by listeners, especially English ones. So what does Oakenfold say to his British detractors? Are they right that he sold out for the Yankee dollar?

"As a nation we love to moan and we love to complain even when the sun's shining. In Los Angeles, if you work hard and you do well people pat you on the back and say, 'Well done'. In England we slag you off."

Point noted.

point noted? what point? he didn't say anything about the mix..... hehe

hese days Oakenfold rubs shoulders with the likes of Danny DeVito and Alec Baldwin; he�s reinvented himself as a Hollywood go-to man for film soundtracking, scoring such films as 'Swordfish', 'Collateral' and 'The Matrix Reloaded'. His name just doesn't grace flyers now, it scrolls by on the big screen as you reach for the popcorn.

it almost sounds like the guy is taking the piss....but trying to sound polite at the same time...

also...
i'm pretty sure don davis did the soundtrack, some tunes with juno reactor, oaky just did a remix of dave matthews band or something... ?

downloadind the essential mix now...
