All I have to say is that if you don't go you will be kicking yourself in the ass for the next 20 years. He spins a whole bunch of stuff but it's mostly progressive.

i dont think he spins ANY progressive, its a lot of electro, breaks, funky house, and a bit of trance


and electrofunk

not i, yet at least

but theres a new 'ultra-rare' 4cd promo compilation he handed out at his recent world tour...mmmm

I wanted to go see him so bad, but I needed at least like
$100 and I was broke (like usual).

I heard he killed it.

p.s. I would put him in the prog house/trance catagory, but he's very unique.

Though I've never seen him live, I have a few of his sets. He mixes up the styles quite a bit but that's ok since he has some of the maddest skillz I have ever heard. In general, I'd say he plays breaks, prog house and electro mainly.

I saw him twice and I thought he played a prog/hard house set each time, but who knows with all the terms being thrown around these days. He's great, by the way. He's the only non hip-hop dj who can scratch without making me want to stop dancing. Mad skillz is right. Amazing.

i have seen him play once and it was great, i would strongly reccomend you go see him.

He samples, scratches,loops and uses the effects on a DJM600 so well, realy enjoyable to watch.

As to the style he played id say a mix of prog & tech-house it was a few months back i saw him but i rember he played

Dave Gahan , Dirty Sticky Floor
Sasha � Wavy Gravy
Whatever Girl � Activator (Filterheadz Remix)

&
his own productions & remixes

havent seen him live myself, but heard sets
he's nothing short of phenomenal in terms of technical skill
a pioneer of djm600 abuse

what everyone else said above is pretty true, mixes it up a lot but generally progressive / breaks stuff.

If you're expecting to hear 'As The Rush Comes' or Armin-ish trance, then you're going to be very dissappointed. But if you want to experience something different then def go check him out. I've seen him live many times and each time he blows me away.

peace

He was unreal ! throwing samples left, right and center and mixing was second to none ! a must see act

What I wouldn't give up to see Zabeila live...


Posted by infinity HiGH on Sep-29-2003 05:16:

He was here with Sasha at the end of last month...to say he destroyed the club would be saying little.
