Why do people hate Judge Jules???
View this Thread in Original format

I look at all these threads about top Dj's and whenever anyone or anything mentions Judge Jules as one of the leading Dj's on the scene today, people always scream and yell and say how horrible he is. Why is this?? Not only does he produce HIGH QUALITY trance under Hi Gate and Angelic, (yes i know those are joint projects, but still) but take a listen to Quontact 2001 or Trance Energy Heerenveen 2001. What is so wrong with these? His technique might not be flawless, but his trackselection is superb IMO. Fact is, he works hard to be where he is and you've gotta give him credit. Living where i do, i'd give an arm and a leg just to see him live once.

Firstly,Jules CAN mix,quite good actually.Ever listened to his show on Radio 1?Secondly,yes he plays cheesy tracks from time to time,but all trance-DJs do that.You can't slag him for being a bad DJ simply because he plays some tracks you don't happen to like!Personally,I kinda admire him for having the guts to play as different records as Guy McAffer - Raw 009 and Dreamcatcher - I Don't Wanna Lose My Way.:)Thirdly,punches clubbers in the face??!!!:eek:WTF?!When did he do that?

I think Jules is one of the few DJs that still dare to act a bit childish when it comes to DJing.It shows that he's still a bit down to earth,contrary to virtually every other DJ that is as popular as him.Most of the Big DJs are too concerned about their image nowadays,and that is not a good thing.Saying this,I've never seen or heard the Judge outside of Radio 1 broadcasts,so I can't be sure.Maybe he's an arrogant bastard out in clubs?

some people were angry because there was a tite track that needed identifiying and some people sent an e-mail asking what the track was, and the judge didn't give a reply. This kinda p-o'd some people, and they started bashing him after. It's in the unknown track forum...somewhere

I think people don't like him because he kinda represents all things dance music isn't supposed to be about. He is the popular guy who grew up in a rich family, got big because his folks gave him money to promote parties, has a beautiful wife, a son, and lots of fame and fortune. and is essentially living the well..British dream. And Wether or not they admit it, I think thats a part of the reason why people don't like him.

As for the other, its because he oftentimes doesn't put all of his energy into all his sets. This is paritally because he plays so many but also because I have a feeling he just doesn't want to for whatever reason despite being able to. And people think that he's holding out on them.

Another judge jules thread........i thought we already beat this subject to death.

Judge Jules is not a DJ ! He is a business man who makes money with trance music !! He cant mix for and plays cheezy crap. He only plays popular tunes( Prolly thats why so many people like him) rather than playing tunes he likes or something unknown. I admit that his Quontact 2001 set is pretty good but generally his sets are crap !! He is way too over-rated !! :mad:
Judge jules SUX !!!:whip:

failsafe
I like about 50% of the sets I've heard from off BBC or big festivals. When he came to toronto in the late fall, I thought "what the hell, my freinds like the cheese, so we'll go check him out". It was the most painful 4hrs of my ing life. Judge was all ed up on e? He kept knawing his jaws back and forth, and played absolute e. Not even the normal cheese though, just stupid boring . I can't even begin to define it. At one quiet part in his set, I finally had just about enough of the and I yelled at the top of my lungs "PLAY SOMETHING GOOD FOR S SAKE". Then gave him the finger. He proceed to play for the rest of the night. The high point of his set was him walking off the stage. I can't stand him ever since.

Jules is a GOOD DJ, he ain't the best and he aint the worst.

People always knock DJ's they aint seen live, I used to think Jules was just an average DJ but then I seen him at Gatecrasher and lets just say when he was on the most people were on the dance floor for any DJ that night.

And they were a lot of other good Dj's playing that night too, Scot Bond and Timo Mass to name just a couple!

Long live the Judge
