The only complaint about Above & Beyond I have (and this is coming from a person who has NOT seen the live) is that they play songs that are similar to the style of their own and never play any dark progressive tracks that you might hear from other DJs such as Markus Schulz. |
Yay, then they can also put the rest of us to sleep like the modern Schulzie does. |

Why would they play dark progressive tracks? They're playing what's expected of them. |
this, back around 2004 before they started headlining at major events they used to play really good music that you wouldn't necessarily expect from them. now they just play what the people want to hear, shame. |

I find it amusing how everyone is praising the 2000 Chicane set as one of the best ever...
And then in the same forum moaning at how A&B mostly play tracks from their own label. |

I think it also helps if Paavo is one of the two that plays at any given time as he is the quality DJ of the 3. |
None of them are 'quality' DJs - They are all incredibly piss poor at mixing. As is the case when you book producers as DJs. |

All in your opinion of course. Ill again point you to the Essential Mix in the Summer. Cant say there was any bad mixing there so where is your point? |

It's not my opinion, it's a fact. If you know what makes a good transition you'd know they are .
Was the Essential Mix live from somewhere or was it pre-recorded studio set? |

Really? I saw them a couple of times during 02-03 and I pretty much got exactly what I expected... |

Give it up man, they're not "" mixers. If you're gonna bitch about them, track selection is probably where it's at. |

Sorry, but they are. And if you think otherwise it only goes to prove you don't know what you're talking about. Which in your case, we already knew anyway. |
