Honestly man, been following the guy since 2008 and I find his stuff has gotten a lot more generic over the years. He'll put out something nice here and there, but for the most part I find his stuff to be cheap run-of-the-mill wannabe deep house. Just my opinion of course. But like I said he'll still put out the occasional good track/remix.

I haven't had the chance to hear any of his older stuff, so I really can't make a critic or comment on it. A new discovery for me, I enjoy it because it's different than what I hear when I go out here in Montreal and a sound that I right now identify with. Keeping up with all the Dj's that come up is tough and don't have much time to listen other than when I train or go out. When I do go out, I look at it as an investment. I'd have to say that this year the best times I've had have been at UN on Deeper nights. I'd do a little research Dig, get into, makes it fun. The beauty of music to me is first discovering it. As a listener, I listen to almost every genre of music and can say I appreciate almost all of them, in the right setting of course. I find there's so much out there now that sounds too similar to one other so drifter to something new for me, Since we booked Giles smith for my 30th, I got into a Deep house phase.
What is some of his older stuff ? I'd like to make the comparison between than and now.
What would you consider good in the Deep house category ??

Don't get me wrong, I don't think he's a bad producer at all, it's just his [over]use of random cheap diva-ish vocal samples, which a lot of producers are guilty of btw, which gets me. Especially when he wasn't using them in his productions before and it was better (IMO) that way.
Here are some examples. I guess he was a little more ambient or progressive back then too:
Anyway check out this thread in the music discussion part of TA:
