    Yeah, as much as I slag the manufactured mindless joke that is Girls Aloud. They also are doing well for themselves.

    only seen him once... it was at antiworld...maybe 2 years ago - hadn't heard much of him at the time. i suppose being at antiworld, in the techno arena, he was always going to play harder and he sure did - it was relentless, energetic, hard stuff and i loved it! As for his releases, i think tunes like 'la sala loca' and 'learning how to do it' are quality! Yeah they're big 'athemic' riff lead tunes but you need a bit of that now and then. AS for being like hard house - well no, hard house is trying to be like techno - where do you think they get all their ideas from! Got his mix Cd on intec and i reckon its pretty good. starts off a bit proggy and 'melow' and perhaps there aer too many 'anthems' one after teh other towards the end but i'm pretty happy with it. He's a good lad i reckon - go valentino!! :o)

    cheers mate! ;o)

    I know everone's entitled to their own opinion etc etc bla bla bla, but i do feel rather sad when i read negative comments about techno. I mean, i personally dont really get on with the minimal detroit type stuff.... find it rahter dull.. but hey, its still better than most other types of music around! Valentino's music may not be everyones cuppa but its stil decent, well produced music.

    Not everything has to be nails mate, appreciation of the music and a good progression is what makes a night, not just a night full of "balls".

    saw him play several times,,and it was ok,. i had fun,,even i wouldn't call this style funky techno,,probably house or stuff like that,..

    i'm not into his style,-it sounded really boring,,but have to say other people were nutz and girls went ***... heh., i dont like his production but there is bunch of people out there who'll say ,.it's ace,.

    they are doing fine mate, charting high, new single doing well as far as I can work out, one of the few successes from the whole pop idol arse.

    As for kanzyani, well, yeah, the guy is pushing techno, which is good, but I just can`t get my head around all this pseudi trance malarky these guys are playing.
    All these appregiated synth parts and obvious progressions and stuff.
    Yeah, it does the job but there`s something distinctly weak about it to my ears, and it doesn`t seem to have any feeling.
    It`s the lift music side of techno to me.
    So I think there is a good side and a bad side to it.

    odd, i dont remember saying everything has to be nails?

    with all due respect you dont know me, i know a great deal about progression and i dont play hard myself as a rule, music with balls doesnt equal hard music or techno, it can be funky, deep, dark but still with that extra something that i feel Valentino definately lacks. as i said, 5 years ago it was enjoyable at least, but not now

    spot on

    at Valentino's level it would be a bit odd if he wasnt doing the big festivals, he's been around for years people are forgetting

    You can be funky deep & dark with somthing that Valentino lacks.

    Stop bigging yourself man. I dont like either of your stuff but dont feel the need to bitch or bragg. Just an observation.
