The fact this thread exists just pisses me off in itself.
The guy has a ridiculous amount of recognition, and he doesn't even do anything.
It doesn't really matter if he's a fraud, because he's not making any money anyway. He's just a 19 year old chav guy from Scotland who likes ing about with other people's tunes, he's not gonna get anywhere. He can't make an album because he doesn't know how to make his own tracks, only how to manipulate others.
But it is slightly worrying.
I mean, if he made an album now, it would sell a -load of copies.
And it could be as as he wants. |

The reason this thread exsists is to let people know that the tunes he releases aren't his own. Why the should he get credit for messing up and releasing other peoples tracks?
He must get money from it as there are record shops selling his albums over the counter regardless of the copyright issues.
If people know what a silly twat he is then that might dent his credibility. It seemed to stop the people I showed that video to from listening to his tripe. |

Yeah fair point, but you know what they say: any publicity is good publicity. |

There's really no defending him. I started the above DJ-Rankin Fan Club site with tongue firmly in cheek after hearing one of his "mixes" for the first time. Personally, I don't hate him... I think it's some of the funniest music I've heard in a long time. I think it's equally funny how passionate his fans are... as well as his detractors. Nothing riles up the DJ community more than the mention of his name (except for maybe the "vinyl vs. cd" debate).
My ultimate goal for the "Fan Club" website is to identify and give proper credit to the artists who have unknowingly contributed to DJ Rankin's success. To that end, I have posted the first in a series of DJ Rankin Truth Challenges to the site. Looking at one Rankin mix at a time, the challenge is to identify all of the songs he's used in that mix. This week is "I Am A Raver." We all know that Dave McCullen's "Rave Heaven" is the main song, but what are the other songs in the mix? If you think you know, stop by an post a comment.
Thanks for welcoming me to your forum... it's really excellent.

But why?
This guy isn't huge, people like you are making him huge.
You're putting effort in to making sites dedicated to some randomer in Scotland, who really doesn't deserve the attention.
He should just be ing ignored, then maybe he'll go away. |

I'm afraid you underestimate his popularity. He may not be a household name, but his mixes have been traded and shared all over the world... going on two years now, with no help from me. The "Truth" video on YouTube, which I had nothing to do with, has been viewed nearly 10,000 times in 10 days... hardly influenced by the handful of visitors that my site receives.
I started my site as a fun way to get accurate information to poeple who may be searching for DJ Rankin's mixes online. Ignoring him won't make those people go away. |
