Im gonna have to disagree with you there, he might have invented a new sound but it doesnt mean he has skill. I watched him mix for a while @ BeB..and i was cracking up..He couldnt beat match for . |

weve all heard these songs over and over again until they were sadly engraved in the back of our heads.. its these songs that gave benassi the cheese label in the first place.. same annoying, repeatitive sounds with those schreeching robotic vocals in every production.. his songs are club anthems and should stay in the clubs.. clubbers, ginos and all that sort eat up these songs like doritos :tongue2 .. real edm djs, on the other hand, playing at the afterhours and raves are at a whole different level.. its these songs that had me originally disliking his style.. his set at BeB just put the nail on the coffin |

I agree that his music should stay in the clubs...it was clear he was out of place at BeB, and at Red Lite he played garbage. But if you're tired of the same old Benassi sound with repetitive beats and robotic vocals in his songs, listen to his new album Phobia! EVERYONE should at least listen to Light and Castaway...because I haven't met a person who's disliked these songs YET, and to me they're on a much higher level than anything he's done till now. |

Louis, he was merely saying that Benny B wasn't playing his own productions. He's stated many times before that he LIKES benny b but just wants him to play his own productions. No need to be hasty. :X |

Alright, my two cents on this.
First of all, what does it mean to say that someone's music is good or bad? By qualifying it that way, you're making an objective statement about a DJ's music, and thus, would require certain objective criteria to justify your claims. But what objective criteria could you possibly come up with to determine whether someone's music is "good" or "bad"? Personally, I see none.
You might want to bring up his mixing skills, his beat-matching skills and so forth, which could be objectively quantifiable, but how does that reflect whether his music is "good" or "bad"? The only thing it relects is his technical proficiency as a DJ, period. Nothing to do with his music.
You might want to get into an elaborate discussion about the "richness" of his sound (i.e. the amount of layers of music in his productions and so forth), but why does richness of a sound automatically have to be equated with good music? Again, there is no reason to do so, and doing so is merely a reflection of a certain subjective preference with regards to a certain sound over another (i.e. the preference of a rich sound over one that isn't so rich).
At the end, "good" music is synonamous with "music I like to listen to", and bad music is "music I don't enjoy listening to". Thus when people argue about "good" music versus "bad" music, and present their arguments as the only truth on the matter, they fail to understand that they're arguing about SUBJECTIVE issues that cannot have, in principle, a common outcome. Your garbage is another man's treasure, so stop arguing about vagueries dammit :whip: |

What I consider garbage is anything that doesn't make me want to get up and dance, and that's what I heard out of him at Red Lite. I agree with Epicurus in that what I think is garbage is purely my subjective opinion. I don't expect you to agree with me, and if you don't that's good for you, we all have our own tastes...but don't go knocking my top 3. :tongue3 |
