    i know a lot of criticism has been levelled at the guy from the techno fraternity, but jesus christ, wot a track..

    I have never been a fan so to speak, not even the voices of africa project did anything for me.

    I have 7 - 9 and it wasnt great at all, that broken beat type track he did on nova mute, with the big organ, that was great!

    i can be very critical of Umek but Lanicor is a beltin track imo...

    Brotax was another..

    i'm not a big fan but every now & again i hear L or B and think... 'that rolls'


    i still think he made an arse of his 'House F**ker Remix', but L & B are amazin...

    BUT, just an opinio. he is no doubt a more capable dj than i'll ever be, but for me ? those 2 trax NEVER fail

    creoxol is another top umek tune. It's a shame with umek, he's a wicked dj technically but he's started playing shit tunes.

    he is a shit hot dj,
    but,
    he goes waaaay too OTT with the effects,

    Technically he is a good dj, tune selection leaves alot to be desired tho, he used to be shit hot in 2000-01 (both production and djin) But somewhere along the way he lost the plot a bit

    he was awful at gkgg(as were most of the djs) a really uninspiring set of housey loopy stuff. his mixing wasnt up to much either from what i can remember which is quite suprising as he can usually pull it off quite well.

    i heard a set of his from timewarp last year the other week and the mixing is turd on that too.
