Anyone seen james zabiela Live? how was it?
he is coming to LA next week.. i was wondering is he any good live and wut kinda music does he play? Thanx
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.

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