The only complaint about Above & Beyond I have (and this is coming from a person who has NOT seen the live) is that they play songs that are similar to the style of their own and never play any dark progressive tracks that you might hear from other DJs such as Markus Schulz.

Yay, then they can also put the rest of us to sleep like the modern Schulzie does.

this, back around 2004 before they started headlining at major events they used to play really good music that you wouldn't necessarily expect from them. now they just play what the people want to hear, shame.

I find it amusing how everyone is praising the 2000 Chicane set as one of the best ever...

And then in the same forum moaning at how A&B mostly play tracks from their own label.

None of them are 'quality' DJs - They are all incredibly piss poor at mixing. As is the case when you book producers as DJs.

It's not my opinion, it's a fact. If you know what makes a good transition you'd know they are shit.

Was the Essential Mix live from somewhere or was it pre-recorded studio set?

Really? I saw them a couple of times during 02-03 and I pretty much got exactly what I expected...

Give it up man, they're not "shit" mixers. If you're gonna bitch about them, track selection is probably where it's at.

Sorry, but they are. And if you think otherwise it only goes to prove you don't know what you're talking about. Which in your case, we already knew anyway.
