hm ive only heard of this guy but there's a lot of AG stuff w/ him, i know he did an old EM way back when
also a tranceport II i think?
what good sets/albums of his are there, or are they all too dated by now. how come he's never mentioned?

Dave Ralph......used to be paul oakenfold's number 2.....born in the uk (born in liverpool, england actually)....eventually moved to florida...a few yrs ago and basically spins all over the united states now. Recently married to some nice looking lady (I have a pic of him and his wife) from some site i found a yr ago. I'll put it up sooner or later. He spins trance, i say personally his best yrs are behind him but then ppl point to his tranceport 2 compilation. I believe he has 3 albums out, tranceport 2, love parade berlin (live) and naturalized. If your an american.....chances are that you will see him once....in your lifetime because he plays all over the USA.

I've heard he's pretty good live but 'naturalzied' is terrible IMO. It's just a bunch of mainstream progressive that doesn't build up to anything like progressive should. His love parade album is pretty decent though.

I have an old tape of him playing live from Dreamscape, new years eve something like 96/7. it's a nice set, not uplifting, not too hard, but still what I'd call trance, @ that time it's very much what you'd call the psy-trance, like what a lot of the Israelis are playing now

No I don't think so. It's pretty decent, I think the first cd is better. First cd is more deep and dark sounding.

I don't agree with you.Of course Skribble fucked the reputation for US-trance up pretty good,but people like D:Fuse,Christopher Lawrence and Jerry Bonham are still som pretty darn good producers/djs IMHO.
Hmm... i thought dave ralph was well known all over the place, maybe not?
I mean he is resident at Buzz where i live close to but i've heard about him even b4 i started going to Buzz... But yea, i wouldnt' say his cd's SUCK or that they are GREAT, but his live performances definitely can be Great and they can also defintely be SUCKY from time to time. LOL
