Posted by Vivid Boy on Jun-15-2002 20:53:

your absolutely right, the guys a hero, a musical genius, he's the one that made dance music the way it is now. And in Oakies case it's not selling out, it's being talented. My Dad hates dance music of any sort (he plays bass, he's bitter cos he never made it big ), but he likes Ready Steady Go from bunkka, and he actually chooses to listen to the perfecto remixes on his single CD's (Mansun Wide Open Space, U2 - Beautiful Day, Embrace - Save Me etc...). And lets not forget, the guy opens for U2 when they tour, and they're the biggest band on earth, and they don't just let anybody build a crowd up for them

Well The beattles are no longer together, and U2 made so much more money, and sold many more cd's than linkin park. Which is good, because linkin park is shit. Oh and they had the most watched television concert(Half-time at the super bowl). They racked in over 63 million in 2001.

i saw The Bourne Identity, and during the car scene, they were playing 'Ready Steady Go'.

but they kept playing the beginning part like every minute, it was some stupid shiiiiieeett.


Posted by Jah on Jun-16-2002 07:58:

fucking i hate these comments of he wants more money he doesn't want more money he has enough im sure anyone who gets paid as much as he does is in a position to put his artistic talents in front of the dosh... jeez shutup and go fucking download the essential mix world tour before bashing oakey you hacks...


Posted by Porky on Jun-16-2002 11:07:

blokenfold, oakenjoke

you hear his music, and he doesn't carry a signature sound like other respected artists.

you hear his recent compilations which are just shit, wandering all over the place

you go see him live, and the energy and vibe the crowd produces is nowhere compared to say..pvd

i think his only good contribution to trance is Tranceport

my 2 cents
Pork!

Evil1 Unbelivable....another one??!!!!

Yay,another "bash Oakey"-thread.Now we're really happy.


Posted by gOuRYeLLa~! on Jun-16-2002 16:29:

oakenfold looks like a deformed monkey..

look at his face, its hallarious.. whoever has a face like that should hide in shame..

HIDE IN SHAME!

I Hate these random vash oakey threads, they just make want to kill people (namely Alice Dj) but anyways thats not what Im trying to say.

Oakey deserves respect, 3 years ago you would have all been kissing his ass, his sets were amazing, and just because he changed his style lately does not mean he lacks a signature sound, It means his sound is constantly changing, which is a good thing, because it keeps him fresh.


Posted by dJohn on Jun-16-2002 17:48:

Probably the most common DJ to bash on...Oakenfold.
It's true that without his contributions to the scene, the scene wouldn't be half as where it would be today. But then again it's not only him that made the dance music genre what it is today...Sasha, PvD and others are just as deserving as pioneers as Oakenfold. It's because Oakenfold decides to bank on his sucess and be smart and make shit loads of loot based on his talent in production and DJing that people are bitter about...whenever they see somebody rake in sucess in the music industry, they automaticaly associate with 'mainstreaming' and 'commercialization' because of images like Eminem(who redefines selling out if anything...a pure undergrounder who turned into a MTV POP...not rap, but pop icon BECAUSE of somebody ELSE...cough cough Dre cough cough), Britney Spears and N'Sync..
Now what do these fan-fucks have to do with Oakey? They apply the same principles in making money in the music industry as Oakey, and vice versa - they give the fans what they want, and change with the progression of music...who would've ever thought that Ready Steady Go would be produced by Oakey a few years ago in his 'golden days'?
So you see, while Oakey maybe a egotistic self absorbed musician and 'businessman' more than anything else, you gotta give him the proper respect that he fully deserves...not only is he a pioneer and one of the true foundations in electronica, but in today's music in general(read his bio and music history if you dunno what I'm talking about)
And to those who bash Oakey, I can see where you are coming from...because we TA's here are devoted to the UG music scene and non commercialized artists(by commercialized, I mean shit like...well, Eminem), it's kinda disheartening to see legends like Oakenfold do the stuff he is doing, but then again, you can't blame the guy. 6 million for the shit he does isn't bad.
My 2 sentz.

jealously... Kills..!!!!


you guys are acting like lil babies on their period!! j/k.. jesus fucking christ.. seriously come on now...
I don't see any of you producing or having such a busy schedule like oakie. give the guy some break.

and who cares if he looks like a monkey... i think monkeys are adorable!!!

everytime i see him which is hasnt been just one or two times.. i've seen this guy like over 8 times... and all those times were wonderful.. u guys have no idea how many ppl respect him for what he does, and NO he is not doing for the fucking money...he can't help but being that one Dj who makes more money than any other for the past 4 years in a roll...

he enjoys what he does.. have u ever seen him spin in front of a crowd.. and how whenever he plays a song that he really enjoys.. he closes his eyes.. and pretend like he is in a different dimension or something.. and he smiles and puts his hands up and starts dancing.. I mean jesus....i think we already know how many ppl in here hate him.. but bashing his work all over the internet is not taking you guys anywhere ,to me this is just a waste of ur time.. get over the fact that you think he sucks.. cause he is been in the top of the world .

oh and just for the record.. he is not my favorite DJ either... yet you dont see me complaining about his every moves.. if you guys dont like him at all.. THEN fucking dont follow his every step.!!
jesus
