I think that people did started listening to J00F first and left for ASOT - i know i did,i just heard more innovative tracks(covered by alot of same-ol' tracks) on Armin ASOTS than in JOOF sets.
In addition,even if ASOT is older J00F is still playing the same kind of stuff as hed did before ASOT started for all i remember so it does'nt matter if you call it GTG show or the JOOF Essential mix from 2001.
Just to be clear im not in loved with ASOT or something i just like it more than JOOf shows.
ASOT was always more or less mainstream. Ever since it started it played the typical club trance.
you say that people started listening to J00F. yeah but you forgot that the huge amount of people that started listening to trance during the last couple of 3 years mainly started because of djs such as Armin and Tiesto.
a quick look at any ASOT thread shows that the majority haven't heard J00F at all.

hehe i forgat about all the n00bs
i dont know if ASOT was always mainstream,i remember ASOT had unique tracks for the most part that other DJ's dreamt of having...Armin had unreleased tracks,innovative tracks and tracks by unknown young producers on his show not just "typical club trance".
Asot was NOT mainstream at the begining,it took at least 70 episodes until it could be labeled as "mainstream"
again soory for not taking N00bs into account,my order was Radio1 sets JOOF,Jules,Fergie,digweed,Pete tong whatever and only than ASOT i forgat that some people actually started with ASOT or worst - with tijs...
Anyway i dont want to hijack this thread and complain about JOOF sets cuz i still think some tracks in his show are nice and that alot of it is a matter of subjective taste in music.

Yea I don't find it intelligent. I find it quite shit. I think the biggest problem with j00f is that he will try so hard to have an upfront set full of unknowns on his playlist that he will be willing to play any given reject unsigned CDR for the sake of it. Sorry to break it to you John, but it was a reject for a reason. It's shit. Oh, and lets all not forget he plays some Psy!11one!1 Each to their own though, I don't like his sound.

I thought J00f reffered to his show music as intel. trance...i guess you said he referred to his own productions as intel. trance.
