I agree with Neo...he is a decent dj and I guess you shouldnt bash him all that much ...

I don't hate JJ & I can bash him as much as I want. I criticize Oakie for playing the same outdated tunes not bad tunes. Oakie was here last Nov, he's not worth $40. He was here recently for MTV, the show was free, I still didn't go. I'm very picky. Not to brag but I see Top DJs 1 to 2x a wk & I work at record label. I'm a muzik snob not hyprocrite.

ps: how can someone "seem" like a hyprocrite on a messageboard? U seem like ur 16 yrs old.

Have to comment -- can't resist.

Jules is ok..just plain O-K. His track selection is bearable, but his arrangement sucks. He's a good RADIO DJ, but that's all I give him. So far that's all you have to say that I agree upon.

Now onto the topic of Oakey, "...same outdated tunes..." !?!?!?! granted he plays certain perfecto favs...but he DOES put out lot of white labels on the floor! His track selection is superb, his arrangement is just perfect. Oakey is much better than any of the "world class" DJs that spin at TWILO. Sasha and Digweed, Cox and PvD are good, but sorry to break it to you, Oakey is better. World CLASS is what OAKENFOLD is about. The rest are just in the backlight of what he has done and is doing. You're prob. "bitter" because he (Oakenfold) refuses to play at Twilo due to the arrogance of the management. I know quite a lot of people in the industry, so what? Has no relevance to one's opinions to who is a good DJ. There is my opinion and my "bashing" of DJs which is not derived from any particular person from the music industry but from what I feel and whom I enjoy listening and trancin to.


I apologize beforehand for making this seem as a flame.


BTW: that whole mTV thing was a big ass joke. A friend told me to turn on the crappy show around 11 PM one night. They showed bunch of ppl (am guessing around 100 ppl showed up there) for about 5 minutes TOTAL with just some schmuck yappin with Oakey spinning in the background. SAD SAD SAD!
I also missed Gatecrasher night @ Limelight Damn I needed to lose couple of poundz before the summer really hit.

What is so world class about Oakie??? He plays the same stale 2 hour set everywhere. Look at the tracklistings...same tunes. As a WORLD Class DJ he gets tons of promos & white labels yet he resorts to classics & anthems b/c they are guaranteed crowd pleasers. He's still playing tranceport.

how & why do u think Oakie better than Sasha, Digweed, Carl Cox, & PVD?

Oakenfold played at Twilo once & they were rude to his gf. Twilo wouldn't pay him the thousands he demanded. Plus he prefers to play at bigger venues. Ur entitled to ur opinion but back up your arguement.

Not back to the same Oaky stuff, you allready know my point Twilogoddes :-) .. I have to disagree about him playing only on bigger venues :-) thats for sure!

i wouldnt say he is better but he's easily as good.. but i think a lot of european DJ's sometimes play some of the older shit over there because to most ppl at these things they are newish tunes... im sure u would be the first to admit the US is a lil behind on the trance scene. its improving though

peace

LOL.. Mmmmmmmmmm Sandra Collins, .. well, we got Kimball Collins, Christopher Lawrence, Micro, George Acosta, Edgar V, and bunch of others maybe not well known.. many good locals on major cities, but I can say that the sates is only catching up with the sound in the major cities, slowly getting into the impossible places, I mean, central USA dont even know what the Binary Finary tunes are, so just stop bitching about it when they play older tunes :-)
