Friday the 13th. Armand Van Helden.


Recommended Posts

house is one way to describe Armand, but i bes histhink eclectic descri style better. he mixes all kinds of flavor into his music, including hip hop quite often.

i dig Armand for a long time, he's an excellent dj and producer, but he is ornary, and full of attitude. last time he was supposed to be at the Roxy on a friday night, he no showed and was seen at Vinyl checkin out danny. but that was a Scotto party, so who knows...

he doesnt get the respect he deserves in new york and is vocal about it. he's literally a god in europe.

rumor has it that he was slated for one of the bigger venues in ibiza the summer before last in the midst of the trance craze we were having, and he went up and started pumping a hip hop laced house set and they booed him outta there. (the effect he was he was looking for)

this party should be hot though, the people who set it up don't fool around.

be cool

don't act too cool because you might get shot...

I dont know bout him being prejudice, but joey I gotta say that trance is not really his style. He spins funky hard house, and he is not ok, he is fucking GREAT!! Heard his set in miami, he tore crobar apart!

Woohooo!! I may check it out. He's def not trance, more funky, old-school house w/ disco/ hip-hop roots...

I've heard his 2000 set from WMC and it was hot!

------------------

Can you feel that rhythm moving through your system?

I read an article in mix and he said first off that he hates trance, "he thinks it's wimpy white people music." He trashed white poeple up and down = backwards and forwards.

I know he's a good DJ but I don't like what he stands for - so I think HE BLOWS GOATS!

Sorry i have beef with this dude - I'm calm now. He's a good DJ I just don't like what he is all about personally.

Blue - I wouldn't say Techno - I'd say more house/funk soulfull stuff. But then again it's all in the opinion ya know?

funny, cause pretty much a majority of the clubbers that go out to see him (or any other house dj) are white. Maybe he was just having a bad day and blamed the MAN. What nationality is he?

he's definitely house blue.

I think he is white. Dutch and Turkish, maybe? Anyway he's insecure because he wants to be respected by hip-hip, but he's not black. It's the same as the Eminem self-hatred routine. He wants to be something he's not, while discounting what he's good at: HOUSE.

I also think he wants the europeans to think he's tough. Killing Puritans is bangin' though.
