I wasn't there, so I cannot comment on what Nic played, but who cares if someone gives a bad review b/c they didn't like what was played that night? Not everyone is going to like the music every time - even if they're fans of the DJ. I'm not a fan of every set that Sasha or Ferry spin.
I'd much rather hear a bad review every once in awhile than a bunch of ball licking where EVERY review on TOTA of EVERY party of EVERY DJ was "OMG THE BEST NIGHT I'VE EVER HAD!" I found that we were getting a lot of that at one point. |

i have no problem with a bad review as long as it is written accordingly. i think its unfair to say a dj sucked and to bash him (ie. you could've farted in to a mic and it would sound better) when you didnt enjoy the tracks the he played. in my opinion a dj only sucks when he or she cannot mix properly. a difference in opinion regarding music style doesnt mean they suck as a dj. |

Fair enough. I guess your opinion regarding why a DJ sucked differs from some people then (me included). IMO, yes mixing is a factor, but track selection is also a factor for me. |

heres how i see it...
i dont like drum&bass but that doesnt mean that djs that play that type of music are crappy djs._the same goes for hip hop. |

I agree with you. But I think there's a difference btwn being able to respect another style of music and not liking the track selection a DJ you like plays.
Would you go to a drum and bass event just b/c you respect that type of music. Maybe, but likely not. The difference here is that they went to see a DJ that they often like, and didn't happen to like the track selection he played that night. See what I'm saying? |

Programming the set well is also another factor. Anyone can just beatmatch almost any random EDM tracks but it won't sound good. |

If a DJ who is known for playing cutting edge, underground music (such as Nic Fanciulli) cops out by playing cookie-cutter tech house cheese, even if he mixes well, his set still sucks. |
