What are your thoughts on current DJ's who should call it a day or radically transform themselves to their former glory if they are to maintain their reputation?
The DJ I believe that is walking a tightrope at the moment is Paul Oakenfold after hearing his Global Gathering and Radio 1 Ibiza sets, I was shocked by the qaaulity of the mixes and he really has to pull a legendary set together soon or it may be the end of him. Who you think is living dangerously on the scene? |

| Oakenfold for sure. I don't give a how good he was, how influential he was... it doesn't change the fact that his mixes are e. He was great for EDM... great... get off the stage and let some good DJ's have a go... |

oakenfold - he clearly doesnt enjoy the dance scene anymore
tiesto - everything he ever seems to do now centres around money its all he seem to be bothered about the club scene can do without people like that |

Oakenfold - Radio One In Ibiza Sums It Up
Acosta - Just Plain Sucks
Erick Morillo - Maybe Not Retire But Shut Up & Stop Trying To Make Dance Music, Rap
Seb Fontaine - Same As Oakies Reasoning |

and what do you base this on? the fact that he has a new cd out, in which he has worked on almost every song on the double disc?
the fact that he is releasing another artist album, which is currently working on....
or the fact that he is touring rigorously....
the guy works hard, you cant discredit him for that. if you dont like his mixing, fine, but atleast rocognize hard work when you see it:rolleyes: |

Oakenfold
I tried listening to his GKGG set, and it was hard to make it all the way through; horrible mixing. Not to mention an almost identical tracklist the other night on a Radio 1 Live broadcast. |

just cose he tours and brings out albums doesnt mean when he plays sets he turns up throws some tunes on doesnt have any structure to the set doesnt mix properly finishes of then he goes home so yes that someone thats not bothered anymore |
