Why do you think some DJ's will lose populairity? I mean.. People change.. Music changes.. Music changes with the people.. Music changes BY the DJ's.. If the DJ's will play different sound which the people love, the crowd goes along, and that DJ will be very populair off course.. But I think some DJ's will go 'with the flow' -> with what is populair -> Some will bend.. And ofcourse, some will not.. Some will just keep on playing their 'own' songs, and there will still be people how love his/her music..
I think you can't be sure that, for instance Paul Oakenfold, will lose populairity, cause he plays his 'own' sets, in his way, and maybe his way will become populair again, and then everybody thinks that Paul Oakenfold r0x again... DJ Jean also has his own kind of playing.. I don't really think you can 'guess' who is losing popularity because he is losing it right now, or because the new style of trance isn't his kind.. Maybe his kind of music will become the newest style.. You will never know... |

Good point Teal'k, but i think there are gonna be some that lose (or already have lost) the plot. Sorry Swamper, but i dont think that seb fontaine will lose it, i think he's one of the ones playing live from gatecrasher new years (with jules and timo) and he's one of THE most asked for dj's in the UK at the moment. ppl that i think will drop from the top:
DJ Jean (agreed!)
Danny Rampling (if only because i shoot the annoying funki house bastard)
Paul van Dyk (until about july/august when he releases a new album which with any luck will be at least some better than his last one. Uncle Paul was one of the ppl who hooked me on trance, i was sooo disappointed with the last album :()

I think Ferry Corsten will ROCK theee world. Eventhough Tiesto is Suppose to conquer the UK Ferry will will stay as an MOS dude and KICK towards the endd of 2001
Tiesto is my Fav DJ. I am really impressed with Corsten(the live sets) I have heard in the last 6 months. |

I was really disappointed when I heard DJ Jean and Dave Seaman live... so their hyper-rep was vaporized in no time. Personally I don't like Timo Maas' style either but I guess he is more like a producer than a DJ(?).
On my card Ferry Corsten, Tiesto and Beam & Yanou are rocking but then again, that's just a matter of taste. I also dig those hard house producers like Lisa Pin-up, Fergie, Paul Kershaw, Mauro Picotto etc.
PLUR, have a great new year's eve! Signing off to parteeeeeee! :) |

I'm listing those DJs based upon what I heard from them this year...
As for Seb Fontaine... I saw him live and he sucked.. I talked with an NYC DJ I know and he played 90% of the same tracks as a month earlier in NYC because we compared notes..his set was the same boring crap.. I like some of the stuff he's done but it just seems to me he's getting lazy.

Hmm, I can't imagine PVD losing popularity, even if his new cd blows (I don't even particularely like his singles) he's still a good enough DJ to keep people interested.
And all I'm hoping for is that Tiesto quits the scene or something so I never have to hear about him again :) |

I think this is becoming: 'whats ur favorite dj next year' -topic... everybody has its own style.. dj's who don't play ur style, simply suck.. so the (must) lose popularity..
Happy newyear.. |

With regard to music styles changing, have a look at Madonna, she's been around for ages, consistenty re-inventing herself. She's arguably as popular now, as any other time in her history.
