it has nothing to do with personal taste in music. i hate the music that sasha spins, but i would probably agree that he's a better dj than richie and should be ranked higher. i also think that digweed is a good/great dj and menno even impressed me when i saw him at an intuition event last summer (i would even go and see menno again in nyc if he was ever booked - and we all know that i'm not a trance lover). based on what i've seen markus spin he's good, but i've never been technically impressed with his mixing whereas richie can do a complete mindfuck when it comes to his mixing/layering of tracks and loops.

being a good DJs relies on what one is playing as well and in my case I prefer what Markus plays versus Richie and that give him extra "points"...Markus is by no stretches of the imagination a bad DJ. Put simply, his mixing is good and his track selection is good and in my mind that makes him good...Richie's mixing is good and his track selection is not my cup of tea hence he isn't as good.
It is a thing of taste and for you to say I've lost credibility in your eyes for my opinion is absolutely ludicrous.

Then Swamper and his entourage of 30, who were all wearing TA monogramed Rolexes, left the room and flew to Hawaii for a few hours because Del wanted fresh coconut.
To his defense, Trump didn't even really look like a bum.

These arguments are always pointless because you cant really use facts to prove that one style of music or track is better or worse than other music. Therefore you can't prove that Mozart is better than Milli Vanilli That cliche "It's all a matter of taste" can't be crushed.
"I saw that! Brick killed a guy with a trident.... Oh, I've been meaning to talk to you about that. You may want to find a relative's place or a safehouse, because you're probably wanted for murder."
"Okay."
