They are great at everything except for DJing.

Holycow, I went to a DJ set of theirs in late 2003 and they literally do not beatmatch. They just play a track, and right when it's finishing, just fade over to the next track real quick. They sold out a place on a Wednesday night and within an hour of them going on, 60-70% of the people left...most all at once.

It was horrible.

They were playing some awesome tracks, though.

Hmmm.

I kind of expected that.

I would enjoy listening to them more while eating dinner/sipping drinks than in a dance club atmosphere anyway.

Example number (blank) that great producer/musician does not equal great live dj.

Enough with the live set aspect . . . what about the music?

A friend of mine knew I listened to a lot of electronica and played one of their cd's and I loved it. It was a year or so old with a bullseye type graphic of the front, don't know the name of it.
