i saw digweed at both Dragonfly, and at Labour of Love. I have to say he's an amazing producer and DJ. His set at Dragonfly was MUCH different than the one at Guvy. I think he only played like 3 of the same tracks.. which in my opinion is quite nice. A very versitile DJ depending on the crowd. i still give two thumbs up for Mr. Digweed |
What tracks of Digweed's do you like that he's produced? |

I don't really dig his radio show mixes, but I'll tell you one thing, he blew me out of the ing water at Dragonfly.
That's quite remarkable in itself, because I wasn't even standing in any water, nor was there any water nearby that was ing (to my knowledge). So if you think about it, he actually had to find some water, make it , blow me into it, blow me out of it, and then hide the water, all while spinning a killer set.
So, whether you were there or not, you can't help but give the man a heap of praise. |

Oh man, I'm in fking tears! I forgot I posted that! hahahahahahaha
But yeah, mmmm that Dragonfly set. Where Shelley kept bitching that he was teasing 1983 all night. Next time, don't listen to 1983 [aka catchy favorite track ATM] before you go to a party and you won't think the DJ is playing it all night long ;) |

| I thought he wasn't up to par at all when he played, but his Transitions 4 compilation is quite tasty. |

GU 19 and Delta Heavy were the pinnacle of my interest in Diggers. Since then he's been losing me.. Perhaps its not him in particular, but as the music changed so had my interest in his work.
RIP 2002 |

DJ worship is wats wrong with the electronic music scene. People have stopped going to parties to party. Electronic music parties have become rock concerts and DJs have become rock stars. This is all well and good until you have the revelation that the guy up on the stage IS PLAYING RECORDS. Other people's music for the most part too. This is especially true when it comes to Digweed, a DJ who plays 'progressive' what does this 'progressive' mean anyway? progressive house? progressive trance, breaks, progressive R&B? when the did progressive become its own monolithic genre? And then this progressive DJ / inventor of this brand new progressive music goes and says like 'me and Sasha are paving the way for the future' Dear John Digweed, youre PLAYING RECORDS of other people's music, you self important, stuck up progressive slag. Its the people that produce the music you play that are paving the way for your future.
And people eat this up, thats what puzzles me, worship a dude for playing records. And they say like his work is like higher art, and requires you to really pay attention to appreciate it. I'm not going to a party to pay close attention and be educated and revel in the brilliance that Digweed has in playing other people's music. I'm going to enjoy the party. And in essence, a DJ's job is to make the party better with the music he or she plays, and Digweed fails at this job, because first of all the energy he brings is inappropriate for a party. He looks like he doesnt want to be there. And his style can be accurately described as purely pretentious. I saw him in Toronto 9 days ago and I was bored off my ass until a scuffle occurred with security because my buddy chucked a crumpled piece of paper at Digweed's head. |
