great producer, great dj
gotta say i love this guy: he takes chances with both his productions and in his dj sets. 90% of the time those chances have splendid results. truly one of techo's greatest.
no argument there.Quote:

James Ruskin played the best set I've ever seen in person at Limelight.Also the best set period at fuse 99.
yeah i prefer his albums, "Point 2" and "into submission" both get regular spins here, still awesome
if your still after that set i'll pm you a yousenditQuote:

:lol:
I'm not sure he's as amazing as people are saying he is. Point 2 and Intosubmission have a few very good tunes as does Further design but they have a few bad ones as well. His Blueprint stuff is his best (other than the two albums on Tresor) but not as good as oliver ho's.
I think Solex is a very good tune (the remixes arent bad either) and his new tune on Sandwell District is good as well, however I cant help thinking he hasn't done a whole lot for a man who's been around as long as he has.
Any one got info on his OVR thing he's doing with Regis, I heard a mix type thing they did on LittleDetroit.net and I think they had a tune on Infrastructure recently although I wasnt mad on either of them, but sounds like an interesting combo!
Dj wise he's very good and Very handy on the 3 decks but In my book he's defintely not a Legend.

He's serious enough for the dark, Birmingham fans and still groovin' enough for the Euro techno massive... I reckon that deserves some props :) :clap:
Thats very true, tunes like paranoia, detached and confession arent really made by anyone else but Ruskin and deserve alot of respect but I guess I just dont think he's made enough of them.
Yeah, I hear ya. It has something to do with the fact that he doesn't release alot of records, compared to his 'colleagues' like Oliver Ho and Surgeon. Especially Oliver Ho...he can't be stopped; he even releases music under different names.Quote:
