All you oakey fans.

BT on Oakenfold - ouch!
is Paul Oakenfold THE most over-rated person in dance music?
(one for all the Sasha-bashers!!)
This is from an interview with BT in "Mixer" magazine:
Q: You wrote music for Britney Spears, too. How was it working with her?
BT: It was great, man... People have a perception of things that's
dictated by the media, and there's an incredible--and an
understandable--stigma with people like Britney, JC and Justin. But I can
say without any reluctance whatsoever that the three of them are
technically better singers than anyone I've ever worked with.
Q: That's quite a compliment.
BT: It was a great lesson in separating what you're told from the reality
of a situation. Like, I look at this incredible affection and respect
that people have for Paul Oakenfold, and he has not participated in a
single piece of music that he's put his name on.
Q: Whoa...
BT: And that's the truth.
Q: You're stating this as a fact?
BT: Dude, I've been there. Call Andy Grey or Steve Osborne if you wanna
know who Paul Oakenfold is. Paul Oakenfold is a fuckin' hand puppet. He's
a good businessman but he is not a creator of music. Half the time when
he's DJing, he's just playing CDs so he can do the Jesus Christ pose.
It's an embarrassment. You have people that are considered overly
commercialized that are such incredible talents, and then you've got some
douchebag like Oakenfold taking the credit for other people's work. I
just wish people would investigate things on their own merit.

Quote from a DJ on another messageboard:
" I played with Oakie at rave on the rocks. That's a concert out here,
which brought all mainstream headliners. He did exactly what BT said. He
had a staircase that lead to no-where. I called it his god staircase too.
Then I saw with my own to eyes, him stand on the stairs while two records
somehow mixed themselves. Huh, I looked a little closer and sure enough
it was a cd in the mix. Ahh yeah that's what I call DJin..."

ive always said that that ****** is nothing but a sell out, but to hear this after beiing a dj myself is just pathetic. I went to his concert last night, and he brought out his "band". supposedly they played "live" his bunkka cd, but it was fake and everyone there knew it. All he was doing was playing his cd. All his cd's that i own are now goin in the garbage where they belong.
