nycetouch Posted March 16 Report Share Posted March 16 Always hear a lot of shit from kandy ravers, and occasional raver types, "Keoki is awesome""Superstar DJ Keoki""Number One DJ in America", etc.Personally I think he's alright from the mixes I got online, but I dont think he's anything that special. He's got his established jungle rave/darkcore style, and he may excel at it, but is he really that great to hear live?Club NYC, whatcha ya think??------------------ Accountz Reeceevin' Ain't For No Candy-Ass Temps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

furnace Posted March 16 Report Share Posted March 16 A bunch of us heard and met him last night in upstate New York. We were dancers in the rave scene of a movie, and the footage will also be used for his video. He came down to dance with us, and was all in all a pretty cool guy.In that situation, with a not so good sound system, and limited time to play (with stops and starts due to different takes and such) he played a pretty good mix. I was pleasently surprised, since going in I had absolutely no idea what he sounded like.He started with some commercial trance, but got a deeper and darker later. It was like progressive house with higher bpm.Definitely not enough time to form a solid opinion, but a I did get an introduction and thought it was pretty good.We'll see when his new album comes out.Peace.------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lexxxi Posted March 16 Report Share Posted March 16 I have been listening to Keoki for years (have yet to hear him live). His a whack job...music is fast and hard. I think he is pretty good. When I listen to his stuff at work people just look blankly at me as if I am out of my mind for listening to him!!! ------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melichacha Posted March 16 Report Share Posted March 16 Hey, but Keoki is NOT full of himself... LOLIt was not a bad set for a short one... He started us off by mixing U2's "Beautiful Day" and we were all rarin' to go after a few hours of dancing in Club Parking Lot... He definitely seemed partial to deanna11 -- I rubbed booties withthis little cohort with the spiky hair... lolAll in all the vibe was so great, they quite honestly could have played just about anythng and we would have had an amazing time... I'll have to hear more of this Keoki character before I can come to a real conclusion.So, when's the next shoot? - meli - ------------------ "This is not political - it's just that I demand attention when I walk into the room..." -- Nelly FurtadoAIM: MeliChaCha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deanna11 Posted March 16 Report Share Posted March 16 Originally posted by boa_boy: deanna11 did real well to unset you from your throne as queen of the dance floor Meli hahahaha! nooooo... if anyone watches her move, they'll know melichacha is our undisputed queen of dancei was really confused by keoki's short set last night. i thought his style was hard techno. he was spinning some pretty melodic trancey stuff. maybe for the movie. i loved it, but it was just unexpectedkeoki seems like a pretty kewl guy. his bf is hot. dayam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
furnace Posted March 16 Report Share Posted March 16 C'mon...club parking lot was fun...plenty of room to string right?The guy with the spikey hair is Keoki's fiance. They are getting married in 2 weeks in Vermont.Keoki was definitely a pretty nice non stuck up person for a superstar dj. He totally was groovin with us and Deanna11 (like they said) on the dance floor and was hanging out after it was all over.I hear alot of people say he is not like he used to be...well, I guess people's style evolve and change, and it doesn't always go in line with popular tastes, so more credit to him for doing what he likes.BTW, he seemed completely sober...I've heard all the things about him, that he plays fucked up, that he's late and doesn't show up, but he was on point last night.JOOP!------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brandie Posted March 17 Report Share Posted March 17 ummm . . . the guy's got hair that matches my room (leopard print) . . . heheheactually, he was a lot better than i expected him to be - i mean we *were* all dancing (not like the cameras had anything to do with that, ) and def. wasn't the asshole that i had heard he was . . . no stuck up attitude, he was all about trying to give us the music to make us dance our asses off. luv,brandie------------------"And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music.""To love someone is something..to be loved by someone is something else..but to be loved by the one you love is everything.."

mugwump Posted March 17 Report Share Posted March 17 Yea..Keoki was GOD at the Limlight back in the day..(if any of you youngin's where even around back then) I love his style now though..it's evolved a bit. I'm jelouse you all got to meet him. When's the video air? Hey if any of you want to see a great documentary where they interview him check out "Better living through Circuitry." It's all in all an excellent doc on the music and the scene. Keoki is in LA when he's being interviewd watering rosses with his little dog. It's fuckn hillariouse! The man's very intelligent though and they even show some old LL footage.[This message has been edited by mugwump (edited 03-17-2001).] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
