Paul Oakenfold has been an EDM icon. But then again, everyone respects him for all that he has DONE for edm but whats done is done.
I think his days are numbered until he pulls togther a really mindblowing set. Every DJ has a lifespan..more or less..whatever everyone may think and Paul has been around for over 10 years if I'm correct?
Personally I think he is at the fag-end of his career but then again, who knows...time will tell.

As for PVD, he has been doing a lot of experimenting lately...
But when I heard PVD@Nature One I concluded that he ain't goin anywhere!

Tiesto needs to take 6-7 months off. And stop doing this one day I m in chicago next Day I'm in London. He needs to refocus his energy, passion, and love for the music.

I would highly reccommend that PVD, Tiesto, and Armin now need to start doing a few VERY large events when they tour instead of club to club thing. For example. A Tiesto in Concert for the East Coast and one for the West Coast would have been perfect. Atleast all his fans would feel happy that he took the time to prepare, sleep,and think about the set.

Paul Van Dyk needs to refocus on his production work instead of trying to spin at every club in the world.


Armin and Ferry actually have not hit these road blocks as the above but I hope they learns from thier peers.


What I hope these DJ's do not only for themselves but also for the music is start spinning togther in a concert like event across the world in select areas. For example. a Trance Event here in america were Tiesto, PVd, Armin, and Ferry would play in a concert style thing toghter would be insane and worth a high ticket price. and only 1-2 events. Not every city thing. People in the states would travel and spend big $$$ to know if this is going to be a the best show these dj's can put on.

My ratioanle is fewer small events, but newer "concert" style( think tiesto in concert) events with higher ticket prices to compensate for fewer tours.The DJ's will still make $$$, the fans wil be happier, and the DJ's will be heathier/happier.

Paul Van Dyk, Tiesto, Armin Van Buuren & Ferry Corsten Worldwide Tour.

That would be insanely good!

They need to do stuff like this inorder to get trance the hightened popularity it needs. Trance is becoming the newer music of choice for people across the globe; the club venue thing will no longer work in this era of the gloabl dj and global dance music. Mae the clubs for up and coming dj's and give the concerts to the big boys. This would indeed be the artistic revolution that needs to take place. This about Rock and Roll, the concers and event it held which help it gain mainstream popularity.

oakenfold - he needs to stop full stop. he might go on to be a succesful rock star but thats besides the point. for someone who is in the top 10 in the world, he plays tunes that were released 6 months ago, has no style, no structure and he cent mix.

pvd - he should keep on DJing, though he needs to update his t/l a bit more often. as for producing, he should take a break and get some new ideas or get himself a charlie may type production guru

tiesto - he'll keep on djing whether we like it or not, hes huge. the fact hes djing at the olympics shows that. again his production skills were never amazing, and just be is nothing special.


johan gielen - hes the worst Dj ive ever seen
judge jules - no one wants to hear you talk, fuck off

Sent you a PM of my touring schedule and a few of my lastest mix cds.

john kelly amongst others. i was at passion for new year last year and as well as playing the worst set that i have ever heard in my entire life, he completely stoped the decks in the middle of his set and played Queen - Another One Bites The Dust (not even a cheesy dance version, but the original). i was so shocked that i just walked straight out of the club.

it really does get me u know, that there is so much upcomming talent in the world that should be given a chance, instead of clubs booking djs such as john kelly etc who do not have a clue anymore about what the crowd really wants.

MOVE OVER AND LET OTHER DJS HAVE A CHANCE!!!!
