shush or else eastern europeans will come and steal you in the night!
i dont see the problem with a dj playing their own tracks either, you should be playing tunes you like and you should be making tunes you like so whats the problem with that.Quote:

Bailey's a hard one to work out alright, seems to be over anxious to state how 'into the music' he is and likes to name drop Autechre and Boards of Canada every 5 minutes for a bit of cred. In ten years time I don't think he'll be remembered for any great service he has given to techno despite the huge amount of 'big' releases and remixes he's had out.
Ben Sims was on my mind either when I read that, Just feeling as you do, although I like Bailey`s techno very much, his production and DJing alike :neutral:
That´s ****ing funny. What cred?Quote:

grrrr :twisted: twisted indeed.
er i believe they are!!!
Ben Sims
Surgeon
Dave Clarke
3 of the best techno djs EVER ;) Maybe not the biggest names, but much better than the likes of Beyer/Bailey/Liebing/Vath etc
In fact, I think they should have a battle one day, British and US vs Europe lol
and that's the problemQuote:

Don't see the point of this at all, like in the other post saying that Geezer is better than Skoog.. it's not a competition, everyone should be judged as individuals and what they can do, not all the time who is better and all that crap.. it's really not what it should be about.Quote:

and,..uhm..since when has british dj's stopped being european?
Yeah I reckon he must be talking about the acid techno crew... it's what I think of when someone says UK techno. But the days of it being a totally separate scene from the European techno scene are years gone; most of the time DJs will be playing stuff from both the UK labels and European ones. And while the UK labels do have a distinctive sound to them, it's not that dissimilar to the European sound nowadays either.
And anyway if you've got a scene where DJs know each other and help and collaborate of course they're going to play each other's stuff. I don't see why that's odd.
Exactly :clap:Quote:
