Well The beattles are no longer together, and U2 made so much more money, and sold many more cd's than linkin park. Which is good, because linkin park is shit. Oh and they had the most watched television concert(Half-time at the super bowl). They racked in over 63 million in 2001.

i saw The Bourne Identity, and during the car scene, they were playing 'Ready Steady Go'.

but they kept playing the beginning part like every minute, it was some stupid shiiiiieeett.

fucking i hate these comments of he wants more money he doesn't want more money he has enough im sure anyone who gets paid as much as he does is in a position to put his artistic talents in front of the dosh... jeez shutup and go fucking download the essential mix world tour before bashing oakey you hacks...

you hear his music, and he doesn't carry a signature sound like other respected artists.

you hear his recent compilations which are just shit, wandering all over the place

you go see him live, and the energy and vibe the crowd produces is nowhere compared to say..pvd

i think his only good contribution to trance is Tranceport

my 2 cents
Pork!

I Hate these random vash oakey threads, they just make want to kill people (namely Alice Dj) but anyways thats not what Im trying to say.

Oakey deserves respect, 3 years ago you would have all been kissing his ass, his sets were amazing, and just because he changed his style lately does not mean he lacks a signature sound, It means his sound is constantly changing, which is a good thing, because it keeps him fresh.

Probably the most common DJ to bash on...Oakenfold.
It's true that without his contributions to the scene, the scene wouldn't be half as where it would be today. But then again it's not only him that made the dance music genre what it is today...Sasha, PvD and others are just as deserving as pioneers as Oakenfold. It's because Oakenfold decides to bank on his sucess and be smart and make shit loads of loot based on his talent in production and DJing that people are bitter about...whenever they see somebody rake in sucess in the music industry, they automaticaly associate with 'mainstreaming' and 'commercialization' because of images like Eminem(who redefines selling out if anything...a pure undergrounder who turned into a MTV POP...not rap, but pop icon BECAUSE of somebody ELSE...cough cough Dre cough cough), Britney Spears and N'Sync..
Now what do these fan-fucks have to do with Oakey? They apply the same principles in making money in the music industry as Oakey, and vice versa - they give the fans what they want, and change with the progression of music...who would've ever thought that Ready Steady Go would be produced by Oakey a few years ago in his 'golden days'?
So you see, while Oakey maybe a egotistic self absorbed musician and 'businessman' more than anything else, you gotta give him the proper respect that he fully deserves...not only is he a pioneer and one of the true foundations in electronica, but in today's music in general(read his bio and music history if you dunno what I'm talking about)
And to those who bash Oakey, I can see where you are coming from...because we TA's here are devoted to the UG music scene and non commercialized artists(by commercialized, I mean shit like...well, Eminem), it's kinda disheartening to see legends like Oakenfold do the stuff he is doing, but then again, you can't blame the guy. 6 million for the shit he does isn't bad.
