| JP's music is auditory diarrhea - lame cheesy diva vocals and lame tribal tech nyc style garbage tracks, he's not great technically, and the crowd he brings in is worse = ty dj. I dont care for his productions that I've heard either like "Going Thru IT" He has quite a following up here in Boston as well as NYC but I've given him 4 chances....no more. I went to see him those times after hearing about "how great he was" from NyC friends but he's a joke in my opinion..Gets way more attention than he deserves. |

There is no point whatsoever of having that much equipment for simnply DJing house music.
Zabiela does 100,000x more creative stuff than JP ever has using 2 CDJs, a laptop and an EFX-1000. |

Agreed. Some people think having all of this fancy spancy stuff will somehow make them cooler..better or whatever. I think as long as you have a good track selection, are decent technically, and know how to interact well with a crowd...you shouldn't need all of that. I bet in four years, most DJs will only be using laptops, as many are now. All this guy really needs is a laptop and serato or ableton and he's all set...like PvD or Sasha do. And they are much more respected DJs than this guy seems to be...but I haven't seen him/heard him so I have no idea... |

Like I said, I never liked his music, but he's getting paid well for some reason. Perhaps, it's because the listeners have bad music in music? Now, that I'd agree with. :stongue: |

You'd need 8 people to use all that crap to half of its potential. Most of it is ing useless. |

| At Avalon he played the same loop from a track for 25 minutes. |

| I can't get over this. I heard him last year in Miami and it was disgusting. Wasn't really doing anything innovative and certainly wasn't playing any good music. A bunch of classics interspersed with what sounded like "now that's what I call house 2005". It was labled "A Jon-a-thon". The whole group of people I went with got a big laugh out of that. |
