What do you think of DJs using laptops to mix? Grant Willow Madrid From a technology point of view it's easier and you've got access to a lot more music than you can ever imagine taking with you. From the clubbers' point of view, I wouldn't like it. I don't think that's the way forward. But I understand from the other side why DJs use it. A couple of DJing friends of mine do it because they get access to all this music. Personally, I don't like it because it looks bad and you lose the art as everything's matched up and sorted out for you. I use vinyl and CD. There's something about playing live, the movement you get with your hands. But each to their own.

Good interview, aside from this load of bollocks...

Depite the fact that he released "the club", he will always have all my respect.

He is Paul Oakenfold. Some people forget about that.

Good interview.

Do you really think that?
For real?
What about all those great classic mixes/CDs/live sets he has done?

I know nowadays he's not half the DJ he was, but to say that he can barely operate turntables...

Good interview, but he needs to put a paper bag over his head.

I saw him play a couple of weeks back and I'm was suprised how aged he looked - all that partying is finally catching up with him i think!!!
