Yes!! OMG he's awesome!!! He's produced some really awesome trance tracks, i believe he also produced tracks under the name of DT8, Orion and Jurgen Vries (not 100% sure about the last one but i think i'm right).

These are some of my fav tracks by him (which you may have heard):

Darren Tate - Fall From
Darren Tate - Prayer for a God
Darren Tate - Elevation
Orion - Eternity
Orion - See me here
Jurgen Vries feat. CMC - The Opera Song

Never heard him dj though but i would LOVE to see him live!

He's also a very good DJ.

I think he's one of my top 10 producers as well. Very epic proggy sounds.

He was supposed to spin on Echolation back in the day, but the show ended before we could get his set

But with all the classic tunes under his belt.... you cannot deny his talent.


But Jay is right, the decks are a completely different ballgame.
