There's no essay Jay, I just think it's a bit of a joke to label someone "best in the business" for turning up the bass and making a track twice as long but half as interesting.

that is one track.

he has done A LOT of edits. It is my opinion and i stand by it. There are so many people doing half assed edits right now. To me Terje is not one of them.

We don't have to agree, and you won't change my opinion on this.

I will say that he puts more effort in the edits than many do while making remixes of original tracks.

that i agree on, i said in my first post that the superstition edit is his laziest one but he has some gems.

the dub like an egyptian one where he sticks where he pops in the diwali riddim and really dubs the tune out is brill.
that rework of jacko's can't help it where he gets his erot (ye, erot was prob. influenced by francios k and all those guys but i see more links to erot in terje's dub work than to francois k and paul simpson) on with the track
the one he did of that jazz version of the aquarius theme tune.

I'm not trying to change your mind, I just thought I'd give you some shit since you were pulling the "educating the trance kiddies" troll thing.

what is you view on the henrik schwarz edits/remixes of dance machine?

really cool imo that Motown actually opened the vault for him.

it's decent, but i have the same opinion as his bill withers edit, he should have
a) not done it
b) kept it for himself

also, it's not anything special to get hands on motown masters for remixes, there has been several remix compilations over the years with new good/decent/crappy remixes by all sorts of talented producers/random hacks

they both were limited to 1000 copies but i catch your drift. I personally love the edit of Who Is He. Schwarz is another guy who makes a lot of good edits, and he does keep a boatload of them to himself to my dismay.

In all fairness isn't there something to be said for DJs who do create and keep exclusive content to themselves, so that when people go to see them play live they are treated to unique versions they won't be able to hear anywhere else?

Wouldn't that make their gig a bit more special, especially in this day and age of everybody having access to everything. Reminds me a bit of Jamaican sound systems, many of whom used to make lots of those exclusive dubplates which no one would ever get copies of....

I mostly like his edits, only sometimes his in and outros are too long like here after 6:30

omg you logged in as me





most people who know me know that when it comes to edits I'm all about Larry Levan. Predictably I do like a lot of Theo Parrish's edits. (Minnie Ripperton, Reasons! and so many more)


I usually do not like edits and prefer playing originals all the way for the reason that SYSTEM J posted about the stevie wonder edit.


Most of these modern edits by the revenge and terje and all thse people are basically the production equivalent masturbating to porn instead of fucking. Elements and pieces are fetishized and mass-produced until their humanity no longer remains and they end up a hollow, oversexed shell of their former selves.

Originally posted by enydo I heard they are not good DJs at all. Never seen them myself though.

Seen them twice. Last year in Detroit @ the Shit Show (very good; one of my favorite sets of the weekend, but I'd never even heard of them), once in NY in some random apartment afterafters (bad, but, to be fair, they didn't bring anything with them, and everybody was just kinda switching off every half hour or so).

They're perfectly competent @ beatmatching, but sometimes they'll all but completely disregard flow/continuity, even in their promo/podcast mixes. Add a teaspoon of hype, another of superstar, and another of stagnancy and you have a recipe for fading interest. The act is getting old in a hurry, now that the novelty's worn off. [Yes, I know it was never actually 'novel']
