Alright, Oakie here been releasing shit nowadayS! Anybody disagree?

I'm not too familiar with the whole 1990's Oakenfold being the King of the turn tables. The first album I heard by the guy was Tranceport, which I hated the first time I heard it. After giving it a second try, it blew me away. Got some of the best tracks to this day. Anyways, his second album I listened was BunkkA! Holly crap...even Darude spins better shIt.

The point is, I need a heads up on the whole Oakenfold issue! What are his BEST albumS? I gather he did some Global releases, but after listning to Bunkka, I don't want to waste my time. I'm writing this because I got a hold of his "Travelling in Asia" and its damn fine album. What are Oakenfold's best workS?

btw, Does Paul spin progressive? Any specific albums?

[don's flame retardant suit] it seems its trendy to hate on oakie cuz of his album "bunkka" a lot of people consider him a sellout, and I did too for a long time. However, his sets as of recently seem pretty class... I don't know.. oakie is pretty class if you 'overlook' bunkka, lets just hope he doesn't do anything that dumb again in the future...

Most defenitely, I mean Oakeys no sell out he just truied some new stuff. Ill admit most of Bunkka isnt my cup of tea but it isnt all bad. There are some great remixes to come from Bunkka. So I suggest you look for those as well. As for me i guess im a little bias for I am an eternal Oakey fan, and Nothing will ever top what he did in 1999.

Mix Album wise, I would go with:

Perfecto Presents Another World
and
Paul Oakenfold Live At Cream.

Live sets, I would say:

Essential Mix live in China
Essential Mix live in Ibiza '99
Live at Gatecrasher '99
