vixenfoxxy Posted October 6 Report Share Posted October 6 Originally posted by greyskyy Uneducated people can vote too. Precisely. That makes these things where people "vote" for their favorite DJ's so worthless. I am especially peeved when people send me emails telling me I should vote for DJ's I know personally so they can show up higher in the rankings... sorry but if there are DJ's that are better than the ones I know personally, the ones I don't know are still better and still deserve to be ranked higher. Unfortunate thing with oakenfold is that *everyone* knows his name, so every tool that wandered off the TRL voting site puts him down as #1.

trancerxn112 Posted October 7 Author Report Share Posted October 7 i dunno why everyone hates on Oakenfold his old CD Tranceport is still in my book and i play it once in awhile to relax... and his new cd Bunka is pretty good hookup music...

trueqwest Posted October 7 Report Share Posted October 7 but he really doesn't deserve to be in the top 25, let alone #1. but as a live DJ, he desn't live up to the hype like he used to...I saw him at World last year and of the 5 hours I was there, he spun for barely more than an hour. Eddie Bang, who closed for him, was so much better. And as far as his mixing, I've got two words for you...Swordfish Soundtrack.PVD, Tenglia, Cox, Fontaine...those are all guys I've seen who go for hours. Not that that's the prime judging criterion, because if it was, then JP and Junior would be on the list as well. It's just that Oakie's quality has gone down in recent times, and there are very few people out there who would argue with me on that. :eek: I just realized, I've probably opened a HUGE can of worms by mentioning Jonathon Peters in this thread... Let the Factory heads begin! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john_michael0494 Posted October 7 Report Share Posted October 7 I will be the first out of the can to say that I love going to Factory! But not because JP is the best. I have been known to jump on a speaker and ring the trainwreck bell. JP creates a good time but has trainwreck a few to many times for me to vote him best. But I like what he does, and I have not heard anyone else like him. Factory is fun and the hardest club to leave. Might be the people I go with though, who knows.Howells last Saturday though..........WOW!!!!!!!!! Between 4 and 5 he dropped a base line that was unlike anything that I have ever heard. Followed by some sick breakbeats. That was the best 3 hours of music that I have had the priviledge of listening too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is my quote,,,,, I think JM would agree with the Howells comment, but he is not a big fan of the Factory....!!Sorry John Michaels...... opps.... :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlipsSOE Posted October 7 Report Share Posted October 7 all i have to say is to each his own....i think electronic music should take a page out of sports in voting for manager or coach of the year, and vote for the best colleague. have 300 global dj's vote on a ballot for a top 3 or 5 dj's. this way, theres mutual respect, and i am sure it would be gratifying that these guys are well respected by they're peers. just a thought.
