Just because the guy is a techno legend doesn't make him consistantly good behind the decks. He always pulls in a great crowd becuase of who he is, but I find him playing the same tracks all the time...too many bells and jaguars. His early sets as the Wizard are amazing (mixing & scratching hiphop, electro, funk et al). Mill's style to me is when he fcuks it up with EQ, dropping tracks in straight away, which is why he's gonna make mistakes now & again. You've probably never heard him play a bad set in a club cos you've been off your tits and the crowd are going mental, but listening to his sets straight proves he is sometimes hit and miss. I'd still put him high in my list but Sims & Hawtin flick my switch whatever mood i'm in.

Speedy J has got to be the world's greatest techno PA.

BTW if anyone wants some of Mill's early sets you can find me on winmx.
