Oakey answers BT

From the December Issue of Mixer Magazine:

Paul Oakenfold has answered to the claims made by his former labelmate BT . In the November issue of Mixer, BT (Brian Transeau) attacked Oakenfold's musical character, describing him as "fuckin' hand puppet" who "has not participated in a single piece of music that he's put his name on." Oakenfold responded: "He said that? Oh my god...That's terrible. I'm shocked."
In response to Transeau's claim that Steve Osbourne, Oakenfold's former production partner, was ghostwriting most of his tracks, Oakenfold said: "Factually, he's not right. I only worked with Osbourne on one track out of 22 tracks I recorded [for my 2002 album Bunkka]. I haven't worked with Osbourne for three years. So I dont even know where that came from."
What seemed to upset Oakenfold most was not the question of his artistic credibility, but the fact that Transeau, whose 1995 debut album Ima was released on Oakenfold's Perfecto label, would make such an unprovoked attack on his character. "All I can think is that he's jealous because he's always wanted to be a pop star, and maybe his records are not selling. I certainly don't want to get into a row through a magazine, and if I see him, I'll certainly ask him what his problem is. But he's got it wrong, and I certainly don't need to sit here and defend myself about something that he knows absolutely nothing about."

too bad his coked up ass prolly just read something his publicist told him...

haha that part is my fave

I'm with Oakenfold on this. BT is a lamer for running around and attacking other artists. I dont give a rats ass what Oakenfold does, I'm just here to listen to the friggin music!

I wish he just would have ignored what BT said.
Its so stupid to actually comment rumours that other ppl spread around you.

Dammit Oakie.

The guy does Starry Eyed Surprise (for the american market, I do believe it was never supposed to be released in the UK), everyone calls him a popstar and jumps on the guys back
at least he didn't produce an N'Sync album and a Britney Spears track
and the coke head thing is no comment, but I'm sure he's not the only person in dance music to do coke

FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT!!!

i think comments about the musicians using drugs are just fucking stupid. i would say that probably 75% of the people on these boards have done or do drugs so what the fuck does that have to do with it.

That comment was useless.

One way to settle this matter.......Put them both in a cage for a DEATH MATCH!

Posted by escee on Dec-12-2002 00:57:

I think BT's attack on oakenfold was lame
I think oakenfold's response was written by a publicist and probably false.

Therefore they both suck.

Posted by Vinylgroovah on Dec-12-2002 02:05:

hmmm

y would u think BT's comment is so true and lame... and think that oakenfolds comments are false and written by a publicist???? U must be a CrazyTown/starry eyed surprise fan!!!

Posted by Matt on Dec-12-2002 05:15:

both responses/attacks/whatever were lame

but I still have slightly more respect for BT... only because Dreaming (and a few other tracks) kick my ass

As for Oak... well... I just don't like any of his stuff...
