He used to be spot-on, but there seems to be more of a feigned interest in him over the last year, maybe two years. It's the whole thing where yeah, it was great when it came out, but we've seen it and heard it a million times and now everybody's trying to emulate you, so we're pretty much over it.
Also, he cannot at all be compared to turntablists. He does a lot of looping on CDJs, a lot of effecting, and his scratching is nine times out of ten not done with a plain sample and a crossfader. He has used the same sample on his CD for years and tends to only use the EFX when he scratches in order to chop the sound of him scratching into a rhythm that moves in time with the music. It's an incredibly easy process that I managed to emulate within a day of purchasing my EFX years ago.
He doesn't put on two copies of the same record and beat-juggle them, he doesn't scratch with the crossfader, etc. He's good at what he does, but he's not a turntablist in the truest sense of the word.

Yeah but seriously, where the fuck would electronic music be without effects. |
Where the fuck would it be without DJs?
