Zabiela wins hands down on both technique and track selection. Sasha's got an exceptional mixing talent and an ability to structure a set that puts most other djs to shame, but get fucked he (or anyone else for that matter) can compete with Zabs three deck mash-ups.

Sasha is a legend no doubt. The first of the 'supastar DJ's'.

Technically Zabiela is better...

But Sasha is Sasha.

So Im going the third option.

Yeerrrr tough call, Zabiela has maad skillz (we all already know that duh) and plays some sick breaks n house most of the time, but sometimes plays some whack shit. Sasha on the other hand has mad technical skills, solid melodious tunes n myea...would probably say Sasha. But I'll decide later as I'm gonna try n see Zabiela live when he's out here with Slinky

i would go for sasha....

Reason being.

Zabeila is an awesome DJ and some wicked skills and really is amazing. But i feel he is more a DJ to "watch" and not dance to. His sets are not very danceable

Thats just my opinion. I think they are both great, but in a packed out club where i can't see the DJ i would rather sasha

very tuff! Zabiela's skills are second to none, however Sasha is Sasha! I would have to go Sasha though purely because I prefer his style

I don't think you can compare them at all

James Zabiela plays tech house & breaks with the skills that could have him compete in DMC competitions.
Sasha plays progressive & breaks which all have a trance edge to them and on his day can program a set better than anyone on the planet.

Personally I am getting sick of Zabiela's track selection. He has access to and plays some awesome tracks but he fills it out with some pretty plain tech house while he does his effect & tricks. He almost seems to be pushing more towards turntablism than a DJ these days and while the tricks are amazing its bordering on over the top IMO.

Sasha has probably been in a bit of a rut the last year or two but from all reports he is quickly approaching his best form again. Just stop listening to every set of his on the internet between now and when he comes out to tour his GU CD and you'll be just as blown away as those that talk about the good old days.

Listening to James Zabiela Live @ Lott 33 Canberra (6-6-03) right now so guess where my vote is going!

Oh and Muli i have to disagree about dance-ability factor - 6 hours without leaving the dancefloor (not even for a piss break) at rennaisance in june says to me hes extremely danceable!
