As far as I can tell Acosta is in it for the money and fame. He churns out mix compilations with the same old blend of uplifting anthems, with no personal style or innovation, and complains about not being put higher up on event lineups. |
I agree. |

I really like The Next Level, but apart from that his stuff doesn't really appeal to me.
In the liner notes of Hybrid - Wider Angle, they write:

Does anyone know what this is about? |

lol, i remember hearing about some Hybrid vs. George Acosta gossip, but can't remember now what happened. some dissing and fighting over who was the headline act at an event perhaps? :stongue: |

| Great DJ. "The Lost World" is an awesome listen. And yes, I'm one of the people that joke around in the GDJB chat as well... >.< |

| Acosta is total crap. I don't understand what people see in him other than the fact that most of his traclists are 3-4 years old which I wouldn't have a problem with if they were actually good tracks but they are usually . His mixng is far from good, in fact I have seen him just trainwreck and cut the bass so no one knows he is wrecking. He is also known as being a complete and egomaniac. He has been a no-show to several events because his name wasn't big enough or high enough up on the flyer and he always has the club rope him off from the people so that they dont annoy him. He had a bad gig at Glow once so he decided to pour a glass of champagne on the cd decks. The guy is a total classless POS and a horrible dj to match. |

Gotta agree with everyone. As of recently (last couple of years), Acosta has turned into utter .
There was once a time when Acosta was a good DJ...but money and fame can change anyone. |

| He's okay. Chris Lawrence does more for trance in US than George, but people don't notice that. |

That sounds extremely shocking ... I wouldn't be able to make such a conclusion after listening to his Live @ The Lost World sets though ... but, since more than 2 people have been pouring out similar comments, I guess I have to believe them ...:disbelief :eek: (shocked) |

Yes, I am well aware of the Polls section, but this thread is more of for discussion than for a poll ... poll is a secondary option - and just look at the options - WHAT KIND OF A POLL IS THAT? So, I decided to place this thread in this forum, which I think suits just perfectly .... :gsmile: |

| if they were arguing over who should headline then hybrid is of course the obvious answer |

i like his style and cd's, but i dont like the man himself, he's a stuck up piece of in my opinion. i dont know him personally but judging from his behavior ducking out at shows when i was in miami for ultra just because he didnt feel like doing the gig. thats some wonderful dedication to his fans, one of my friends is a huge fan of his and went to ultra with him in mind and even went to another venue down there because he was headlining, guess what.. he ducked out on em both.
then i saw him when he came to atlanta and he had an arrogant pissy attitude about him. one of the local trance dj's that opened for him that night said he was stuck up as hell too.
i own one of his cd's but i bought it back before all this happened when i used to like him, now i have no respect for him whatsoever.
so even though i do like his stuff, i voted that i dont like him |
