erm.... he is a poor DJ, but he is good at making monney.... hmm. am i the only one who see's a problem with this comment?.... ya know the reason why he makes money?..... because people love his werk, because he is a great DJ and a great producer. that is the silliest comment ive heard this year.
I admit, i dont like oakey, but i can appreciate good werk when i hear it, and i think that that is one thing that you need to learn to do my friend... dont slag off stuff just beause you dont like it... be critical of sumthing because it deserves criticism. So for now, why dont you do yourself a favour and learn about differnt styles of dance/trance music.. and then come back and give me/us a decent argument about sumthing that is werth arguing about. your opinion and the truth are 2 different things... alls we are seeing right now are your opinions... so please dont argue about things that you have no justification for.
oh,, and btw... what a reply.... see, you really do not know what your talking about, because you didnt give me a constructive answer. so off trying to get on peoples nerves.. cos it will only last for so long until you are banned |
errm
hes a dj because he cant actually mix ....
im not one to criticise peoples opinion
'each to their own'
please dont tell me to go and learn about trance!! oh dear...
please
your killing me!! :haha: :haha: :haha: :haha: |

I dunno where this is going...people are arguing whether Oakie sold out or not, and now they are debating his skill.
For those of you denying his skill, I dunno how far up your own conceited asses you've got your heads up. He wouldn't be where he is right now if it weren't for his talent. You CAN'T deny that, and 99% of you Oakie haters on this thread know that, but continue to deny that because you choose to either not give him the proper respect that he deserves even though you know you shuold, or you just cant stand the fact that the man is successfull. Unless you've been hit in the head with a brick many times, I don't see the logic in saying Oakie has no talent.
Has far as being overrated, yes, there has been times where Oakenfold hit his high points when he should'nt have...but that doesn't make him overrated. His success stemmed from his skills, and his place in music is the result of his success. Rather than being overrated, I'd say he gets the spotlight a little excessively...
IMO, I think Oakey is a fantastic DJ...his sets from the 99 and 2000 seasons were off the hook, and his live performances are one of a kind. Not to mention his Perfecto label signs quality artists, and his CD's, while repetitive at times, knows how to set moods and atmospheres.
Give the man the respect that he deserves. You don't have to like him. But you should at least respect him. |

Hmmmm methinks twigs challengin Oakie to some sort of mixing battle :stongue:
He's not , he's good. He can mix, better than you, and better than most other popular DJ's, in the industry respect for this guy is incredible, and you don't get the respect for being . You also don't get voted best DJ in the world by your fellow professionals, and stay in the top 10 for the next 3 years. You obviously have no clue what your talking about :rolleyes: |

Twig seems to think that PVD plays a different set each and every time...LOL....and that all other DJs play the same tracks over and over.....
it is VERY obvious he only likes PVD and Sven Vath ..nothing wrong with that..but they play the same tracks over and over like every other DJ does |
