Yeah, I have to agree with ABT, we saw him at a LITTLE club in Philly the second time he came. There were kids outside dancing to the music , cause it was way too packed inside to move. We just knida stood around (because there was no room to dance) and enjoyed good music.

I've never met the man, and all I hear is hearsay about his personality, so I'll believe that he's a good DJ that I like to hear.

Originally posted by tu_face 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...[quote] Thats bullshit. The nyc & miami club community is very educated. Certain trance DJ's on tour play older shit b/c they are crowd pleasers. Certain other DJ's play upfront fresh tunes every time they're in town. [quote]im sure u would be the first to admit the US is a lil behind on the trance scene. its improving though

yes I agree, train is not as mainstream. We are not behind no new music.


& who cares about the space? He places the same set everywhere...look at his tracklistings for the past 6 months.

Oakenfold plays the same set everywhere? ......damn

True his tracklisting stays pretty much ...stable with new ones poppin up here and there. The thing is, its about pleasing the crowds -- masses --. His tracklisting does just THAT. There are couple of suprises for the traceaddict here and there thrown in.

You should know better than anyone, music is a business, where ever they PAY him, he goes. Plain and simple, this is not restricted to venues that are big or small, but rather to venues that can afford to pay his price.

By world class, I mean, he's a sought after DJ all over the world!
Ppl want to see him DJ all over the world, his name is synonymous with TRANCE. Plain and simple. His name brings in the crowds, his music pleases the crowds. All business.

In person, he's a cool kat, who isn't snobbish to his fellow trance enthusiasts, but that's just what I got of it when I met him.

till later
