no offence, but i think you got exactly what you deserved calling ATB a "legend." id hardly call 9pm (til i come) and long way home legendary tracks. clever poppy vocal tracks, sure, but no where near legend status among any other cheesy tracks i cant think of at the moment. i couldnt even imagine paying money to go see him these days. i saw him 10 years ago in buffalo when he came here for $5. he sucked then and blows even worse now and people just paid in $25 to hear his awful music in buffalo thanksgiving night.

Here are my videos from this past Saturday, both from the KoolHaus & the Guv mainroom. Was a pretty wild night in all rooms. Not really my type of music in any of the rooms, but the vibe was off the hook. If you're someone who stands around trainspotting each track & listening for bad transitions, then it's probably time for you to stop partying.
ATB
Tritonal
Nicky Romero
Knife Party

I'm really surprised at OP's shock with ATB's set - have you not heard any of his recorded sets in the past 5 years? He is quite horrible live :\

I'd disagree - I have all of his albums and there's much more to him then Till I come & Long Way Home
he's just a producer, not a Dj

Mark Oliver's closing set was the set of the night. So many great tunes and was surprised to hear Art of Trance - Madagascar. I went with no expectations other than having fun and that's just what it was, a fun night. Didn't expect to be blown away by any sets like at Gatecrasher.
I recorded about 40 mins of ATB's set, was just standing there so I hit record.

To a veteran electronic listener, ofcourse he wont satisfy, but to someone new to electronic music im sure they will enjoy his sets a load, looked like it in the video posted up above.
Im sure the guy has been djing for like 15 years, playing in big packed clubs using vinyl, im positive hes a DJ. What makes him not?

Again, because you hate his music he plays and I hate the music he plays doesnt mean he cant spin, im listening to a recording now, sounds like he can spin just fine. There are people that eat this up, and have a great time. Stop calling out djs for not being able to spin if you dont really know what spinning is.
