    Jumped to the top of my dj list after his set at ILT last November, 3 decks & a laptop made to look effortless. Best ive seen. Class producer as well, all of his lp's are worth buying, further design & into submission especially.

    The triple whammy of Ruskin --> DJ Rush --> Pet Duo was particularly punishing.

    Further Design, Point 2 and Into Submission are all deadly albums and I love the stuff on Coda.
    I wouldn't go as far as calling him legendary with respect to his productions, but he's certainly a DJ who works very hard.
    There's a nice mix on the Audio page at http://www.blueprintrecords.net/

    Great wasn't it.

    With each passing minute you were thinking "crikey, this is the hardest thing I've ever heard"... only for it to get harder...

    We need more stuff like that happening in the world.

    Only ever seen him dj once and he was wicked!
    Played a two hour set of tribal loopy shit and half way through he went in to this banging electro broken beat shit for about 15 min's which was shit hot! When it came back in 4/4 it seemed even better than before!

    :clap: :clap:

    Could do with seeing him again, really! Ain't seen him on many flyers lately?

    For me he's the best techno dj around. Ben Sims is better technically but Ruskin rules for his tune selection. You can always rely on him for a few choice classics in every set.
