just confirmd for me why he is the best ht dj ever, they way he can put his sets together is 2nd to none,

Not trying to knock him here because his tune selection is nearly always bang on (when he played ht classics), but imo he is not a patch on EG!! His mixing sometimes is awful and he is no were near as consistant as EG. For these reasons i dont think he can be classed as the best hard trance DJ ever.
to be fair, EG has had plenty of mixing mishaps, so i think it's unfair to talk about mzones mixing as though it is something terrible.

they are both different djs with different styles. to be fair, mzone, mark eg and fergus were the top old skool trancers in the UK and each had their unique style which rocked the crowd.

Well everytime i have heard EG play out or of a mixtape of him playing out live, i have never heard anything other than a couple of beats slip out slightly! M Zone's beats are forever clashing and the structuring and fading of the mixes is poor. Fades will be rushed and tracks in the mix wont be changing every 8/16/32 on the bar.

Everybody makes mistakes live, and when EG does, which is very rare, they are nothing like M Zones.

EG is by far the better mixer, a prime example of this (i know this is a studio mix but it does show the quality) is Brainstorm!!
