Damn I didnt know he was that old :o
I see everyones points. It just sucks for me personally. I just got into the scene in 1999...so I got a taste of some of his greatest work and then he leaves.
If he moved on...thats cool...more love for Tiesto and Van Dyk :D |

Age has nothing to do with talent and music producing abilities, we all know that. Yes, drug/alcohol addictions can take away a great deal of that but I don't think that's the case with Oakenfold.
He is talented and he will remain. I like Bunkka, I feel it's diverse and is really nice |

I liked Bunnka and the Swordfish sountrack. Oakenfold isn't the best producer, but I still liked the music. I don't really care that he did Goa at first, then melodic trance, then a mix of DnB and breaks and trance, and now this more mainstream stuff. I just listen to what I like...
I like that he changes style a bit. I don't know any other DJ that mixes so many different styles into one set, so that its not all the same. I dunno if you can expect any different, his background is not purely trance and he is a person of music, not just edm.
Though I really don't know what happened to him. He does have tour dates in the US I think, though none in my area, otherwise I would definatly go. Haven't seen him in two years. |
WORD UP!
"oh my god, what happened to oakenfold everyone?? he's gone COMMERCIAL!!! *GASP* now our music won't be underground and special"
just saw him at space 2 weekends ago....uningbelievable. he is the man. |

My take on all of this....
I don't think he could stick with the same emd style forever, he needed to take his music in another direction. He is trying out new things, which to me is fine. It is a logical thing for a musician to do. I see Bunka as an experiment for him, that didn't go extremely well, but it wasn't horrible or anything, it could have been worse.
Oakenfold is in Toronto June 30th.... I am not going though, he disapointed me the last few times. |

I personally hated Bunkka. Southern Sun was great...but where did his trance style go? Hes making all this new weird lame . I hope Im not the only one that hated the Swordfish soundtrack.
And where did the fukker go? I havent seen his name on any flyers in forever. Ive heard alot of his music on Volvo commercials and other COMMERCIAL interests...do you think he sold out?
He used to have some wicked tracks back in the day...I hope he returns with his GOOD music and not this Bunkka .
What do you all think? |
hey noobie
its 2004......ur like sooo late on the "oakenfold" bunkka bashing
he spins melodic prog with breaks nowadays with a touch of trance |
