In the article (link) below, there is a list of the worst music artists of all time..... So why is Paul Oakenfold at number 35..

I think that they have got that a bit wrong, dont you think?

tbf, the descriptions for some of the artists/groups are pretty spot on.
in oakey's case? i don't know what to do care anymore. can't really give him that much credit, he didn't do much of the stuff on his own for starters. but his coproducers (very loose term since they did the most of the stuff) over the years managed to create some of my fav records of all time.

his album? had it's highlights, had it's downpoints, but mostly blandness, nothing that i want to listen to anymore tho.

Oakenfold rocks.. although his artist-albums havent been of the highest standards.. but his remixes definitely rocks.. even today.

That's a bit old. Had this been done after A Lively Mind, Oakenfold would have been waaaay higher.

And you should take Blender about as serious as you do its parent publisher, Maxim. I find them quite amusing... well, at least less pretentious than Rolling Stone or Spin.

Blender lol.

Anything published by Maxim carries about as much weight with me as a grain of salt.

Edit: Ok, now I'm laughing really hard - How you can put Primus & Blind Melon on that list at all is absolutely lol worthy! Clueless fucking gimps.... At least they got the ICP right...

It's okay everybody! This guy has respect for most of those groups. We don't need to take the list seriously. There's no need to even read it. This guy says half of them are 'A OK!' and that is good enough for me.

I think whats more disturbing is that JAMIROQUAI is on that list. wtf are these people smoking??!

i know they didn't go and put my boys whitesnake on that list... those assholes!

that list is just judging oakey's craptastic artist albums and not oakey the dj-ing demigod of the 1990s. i like a lot of the artists on that list like air supply, alan parsons, asia, etc., but it doesn't make them any less shitty.
