Here's my own personal favorite quote about that prick...
I think we should all sign a tranceaddict petition that requests bad boy bill never be allowed to perform in public ever again, and be shot repeatedly, then thrown off a cliff.

I think there are a lot of boundaries and levels for what "sucks" as a DJ... its really an objective rating, not subjective.
Most people will say a DJ "sucks" simply because he/she does not like the music they spin, or track selection. In my opinion, you can't say a DJ "sucks" because of track selection or music style.
You CAN say a DJ sucks because he trainwrecks a lot, the mixing is for , he stands up there motionless, etc. etc. etc...
That is really what skills come down too.... now, if you dont like someone because of the music they spin, then you should say "i don't like this DJ's track selection" or "i dont like his music".... i wouldn't say he sucks... because they DONT "suck".
**And i'm really sick of all this "I don't like him, he is mainstream" BULL! Give me a ing break, would ya? Not liking someone because they are mainstream is a crock of . The music hasn't changed, but just not liking someone because they are famous... that just shows that you are not a true fan of anything, because a true fan would stick to their guns (like sports, do YOU still like your team when they are losing??????) For example, Paul Oakenfold. he seems to be hated a lot, and everyone that hates him lists "being mainstream" a reason for not liking him.... this is such a ing un-intelligent comment. Obviously you have no respect for trance if you say that.... and to say he "sucks" simply because you think he spins the same records or b/c you just dont like the fact that he is "mainstream" is ridiculous.... that doesn't really rate his SKILLS as a DJ. Now, if he was a bad mixer, thats a different story...
But i still can't see why so many people say he sucks... because he is "overrated" some say. Here's what I want to know: Who overrates him??? the only people that rave about him are HIS FANS. Fans don't "overrate" a DJ, they like him because they like his work, his style... I happen to like Oakenfold, but i've liked him SINCE tranceport, and i never stopped "because he's overrated" or "because he's mainstream"..... i know what he's done for trance, and if people actually looked to see what he's done recently, you would see that he does NOT play all the same tracks all the time. Granted, he'll throw in a couple of old records we know, but thats because we all loved them. Tell me this: What major DJ do you know that DOESN'T reuse records? I'd like to see the original bastard who can use different records every set. People that don't like him because of "track selection" or b/c he plays "the same moldy records", thats fine... you are entitled to that opinion, but you can't say he "sucks" because of this.
Same thing with Sasha & Digweed... they don't "suck", they just have a different style (progressive trance), that a lot of people dont' enjoy.... doesn't mean they "suck"...
Who do i think sucks? I had the mispleasure of seeing Zombie Nation live by accident at the end of last year, and they honestly suck. they may be decent producers, but their spinning skills was lacking at best.. .. they wrecked twice in one set, and on one of those did the ENTIRE crossfade without even realizing the beats were off! to top that off they tried a backspin during a x-fade and it was way off, didnt work..... and .... well, you get it. granted, pretty much most of the DJ's i've seen DONT suck, but then again i am in america and our choice is limited. i have to give Zombie Nation this: they were wearing full outfits and huge masks, so it must have been hard to see and hear (and hot, i'm sure)....
I think that is what KieZie meant when he started this thread... who is actually pretty BAD at spinning... but oh well.
my 2 cents....

Worst dj: the ones with huge egos who cant spin or mix
best dj: the one who plays great tunes, not just top tunes but fresh, new, old, whatever people havent heard. The best dj is one who can mix very well and can experiment from time to time.
:)
very elaborate eh? |

well i think the worst DJ in the planet is DJ Tiesto
:D Just Kidding :D
u think i'll ever say that kind of statement ? he and PvD r among the best Trance DJ's i've ever seen or heard and i don't even into club-trance anymore
i think there is no such thing as a Sucky DJ, if he is he won't get famous. even Jean known how to mix but i nver heard him live.
moreover, Alexander "Sasha" Ku, John "Diggers" Digweed and Paul "Oakey" Oakenfold r among the best DJ's who plays House. if u don't like house then u'll never be able to think that they r good and u'll even say that Anthony Pappa
So Peace ppl and let everyone enjoy his own style :) |

I consider the music that Sasha & Digweed to spin as "progressive trance", or at least thats what THEY call it... and oakey is changing from trance to progressive trance.
Mind you i said progressive TRANCE, not progressive TECHNO (that is picotto-type music).... but hey, i like it all man!
...and i have to agree with IZZY.... DJ skribble is most definitely annoying... he is good at scratching and , but it does get annoying after awhile...
peace to everyone

im sorry to tell ya but sasha and digweed r not sticked to Progressive-Trance only. they usually start with Progressive-House (which is Vaiio - apture for example) and then come up.
and u r right, this kind of music is awsome :D |
|
|
| patticus |
yeah its actually alexander coe, "ku" isnt really a name i dont think
and sasha and digs can be simply definied as progressive djs... i guess if you look at everything oakie's done... the only you could say is its all dance music, but id definitely say its trance.. not even progressive, yet
MORE progressive than tiesto for example, but not really progressive.. not like seaman or something |
