Concerting the OP, Jack you're obviously referring strictly to his production side. In clubland he is still very relevant, trust me. The man has basically owned Ibiza for the last 2 years, and his local appearance on Sunday will be sure to sell out.
True about Ibiza. Each year he runs a high profile weekly party throughout the whole season with top guest DJs. That got to count for something

you see, this. this right here is why you and a few other regulars here are so frustrating to deal with. he never said that you said it mattered.

I never said that he said that I said it matters. Do you want to go on?

Anyone know of anymore?
at least you don't have an obsessive compulsive nigga disorder like myself.

Saw him in Ibiza last year - mediocre, same at Dance Valley in 2005 or 6 - average at best, i think his best days are far behind him
I dont really understand the huge following either, but he must be doing something right

me Lunar, just as I was starting to gain a modicum of respect for you.
Oh, okay.

That one killer set of his from a couple years back. Forget which set it was exactly. But this one.
This one. That did happen.

Indeed, and I wasn't having a go.

Lots of people were raving about his Electric Zoo set, I managed to catch the first half and it was very good... tent was pretty packed too. And interesting to see Cox pop up on RA's front page, too!
