I've noticed there is quite a lot of crap about Ferry lately. I personally love that guy ... so I don't understand why people say he is overrated. So, everyone who doesn't like him: What's wrong with Ferry?

well i dont know about that, i do know his name is not mentioned as much as it used to be... Cant tell if he spins not as good as he used to, because i hardly ever hear his sets... Its all Armin and Tiesto nowadays. Last set i heard was Ferry in concert at Heineken Music Hall Amsterdam (1/2 year(s) ago?), that was soooo fucking amazing...

personally, i love him!
ive bought this:
and its simply amazing!!

i don't know if anything's wrong with him... trance productions have just been piss poor on the whole since 2002, but that's coming from someone who grew up on '98 van dyk and oakenfold trance sets.

there is nothing wrong with Ferry. Its just the latest trend to slag off on AVB, PVD, Tiesto, Markus Schulz, Above and Beyone and Ferry Corsten.

seems interesting, but I can't read it. Care to type out the title for a fellow Ferry fan?

Well, Ferry himself is a bit tired of the scene, according to his recent interviews. On his album "right of way" he wanted to do something different and reception has been good but not as good as he expected.

Basically, Ferry is trying to move away from that "98 - 99" sound everyone has him pegeon-holled in and people are balking. I like his new stuff but I must say his older stuff is better. As far as some people saying he's overrated, well... you'll always have someone who likes or not likes what they hear.

It's all a matter of opinion; I could care less what others think... but that's just me....

Yes, it's a trend because they made it a trend to produce formulaic and unoriginal music. Paul van Dyk I have no problem with though, in general, but what do I know.

Nothing fucks me off more than a fan that thinks a DJ can do no wrong. There is a lot of good music out there. How some people can be so easily pleased is beyond my comprehension.

I'm sorry for being ignorant but have never really paid that much attention to Ferry and what he plays. I have a bunch of friends who really like him and praise about his live performances. Care to mention a few songs Ferry might play in a set (which are not his) so I can get a clear idea of what he sounds like?

That's the Mixed Live @ Spundae album, some really good stuff. I'm seeing Ferry on January 1st. Missed him last time through town, but he got some really good reviews. The only thing I've heard negatively about him in recent memory is some people weren't big on the Infinite Euphoria album, which had a lot of songs condensed to fit onto 2 CDs. Still the only set I've ever heard mixing Adiago for Strings into Smack my Bitch Up.
