is this your favourite DJ list? im sure that has been and gone already in some mag.

anyway,
Bad Boy Bill was hot with tricks n shit back in the day.
Frankie Bones’s mix’s are very tight at the moment. (smoother than any1 else i have heard/seen)
Now days I don’t really see anything that impressive any more.

last times i have seen Dave Clarke, Jeff Mils, there mixing was terrible. its a running joke about how bad Jeff mills is at mixing. his set gets worse the longer he is on.

10 yrs ago, they were hot, now, snot. even still, bad boy bill was better back then i think.

Hehe cool, but he's about as diverse in the music he plays as it's possible to be so you're wiping out a massive amount of records there. Each to their own though.

**gumpy green** · 23-09-2005, 04:09 PM

can i just ask whats so tecnical about beatmatching????all yer doing is let a record sit in time with anuther then blend em in and out.

thers a good few djs metioned here that only do this.....

i think i may have to do a short video to show sum "getting" technical shit.

**acidpisar** · 23-09-2005, 04:10 PM

i'm also not a big fan of records he plays but the topic is about best technican dj (not music they play).

btw when i was last time in london jerome play at 5 or 6 am and i have to say he saved the party and played really nice stuff! all the rest played terrible and the party was a nightmare...

Just because people are from NYC doesnt mean that they have to like Bones....I know I dont care for him as a dj really-never did....always thought his brother Adam had way more talent behind the decks - and Frankie is not the end all be all of NYC djs ;)

I will say this though....Bones knows A LOT about music.....ask him just about anything and he'll know the answer......

I think if you don't really see anything impressive (technically) these days you are not looking. The gear available to DJ's at the moment is absolutly amazing and there are alot of them out there taking advantage of that.

Even one's coming through NY, like Hawtin and Liebing. Maybe Hawtin doesn't play my favorite records anymore, but this thread is about Technical, and its brilliant to watch him, or Liebing play. And if you wanna talk house, Derrick Carter was at Spirit last weekend playing house on 3 decks like nobodies business.

Frankie Bones is a good DJ. He is not a very technical dj anymore, there was a time when he was but i havent seen him play on anything more than 2 decks with simple mixing in a VERY long time. What Hawtin does live and what Frankie Bones does live is 2 completely different planets.

**serox** · 23-09-2005, 05:23 PM

Each to there own I guess.
I like the way bones mixes records more than many, I also like what he playin too, which is rare.
If I want to see DJ’s with skills I look at hip-hop DJ’s cos they piss all over any Techno DJ.
I have always thought leave the scratching and the tricks to hip-hop. Techno mixing was neevr about that to me. You might think it is boring, but not people can mix that perfect and tight every time.
I would rather see jeff mills take a bit more time and mix recordso I am left think, when did he start bringing the record in?! he slams records in n out and you have things stopping n starting at different times.

Anyway, I suck, lets keep tp the topic, i dont want another thread of bashing others who are not even here.

**SlavikSvensk** · 23-09-2005, 06:12 PM

i really don't care if a dj has technical skills unless they are playing good music. like serox sez, if you just want technical skills, go listen to someone like qbert. great techno djs are located where musicality and skills collide...
