What are everyone's favourite DJs?

[BARTONIOUS]

I'm just back from the white isle. The DJs that done it for me were: Sasha, Sander Kleinenberg, Dave Seaman, Corvin Dalek, Pete Heller, Ralph Lawson, Jon Carter, SLAM, Erick Morillo, Ferry Corsten, John '00' Fleming, Tiesto, Paul Van Dyk, Mauro Picotto and Joy Kitikonti.

Although I wish I could have seen: Carl Cox, Sven Vath, Richie Hawtin, Jeff Mills, Green Velvet, Deep Dish, James Zabiela, Satoshi Tomiie, François K, Hernan Cattaneo, Danny Tenaglia, John Digweed, X-Press 2, Darren Emerson, Timo Maas, Seb Fontaine, Oliver Klein, Steve Lawler, Nick Warren, Lee Burridge, Jimmy Van M, Danny Howells, Laurent Garnier, Layo and Bushwacka, Harry "Choo Choo" Romero, Futureshock, Yousef, Lottie, Roger Sanchez, Alex Gold, George Acosta, Marco V, Scot Project and Zammo. To name but a few! :D

I'd say my personal favourites are: Sasha, Sander Kleinenberg, Satoshi Tomiie, Dave Seaman, Seb Fontaine, Futureshock, Jon Carter, Paul Van Dyk, Corvin Dalek and Carl Cox.

Hmmm, my favorite djs come and go, but some old favorites still remain. I'd have to say Sasha and Sander Kleinenberg are my top two, and my second top two are Paul Van Dyk and John Digweed.
There are others I like but these are tops.

[Kazbo]

My fav have to be:
Dave Seaman had some absolutely top nights when Dave's been playing.
Nick Warren, although I have gone off him a bit recently
George Thompson, relatively unknown, but has played cream a few times recently and is probably the best at getting a crowd going
Steve Lawler, Danny Tenaglia and Danny Howells.

Was dissapointed when I heard Kleinenburg. Might just have been one of those nights though.;)

[MattBomb]

lol BARTONIOUS sum list :)

my favs are tiesto, john 00 fleming, oakey (tho over last cuple of years hes bin a bit dodgy sumtimes) and PVD (yer i like my trance)

Quite like the likes of sasha, digweed, picotto, etc, but only in small doses (no more than a couple of hours). Trance is bout the only thing i can listen to all night no worries. After a couple of hours of sum prog/techno/whatever i just loose interest and need to listen to summit else.

[RubberSkin]

Never been bothered by who the DJ is. All i care about is the type of music he/she plays. Judge Jules could shit in me lap and i wouldn't know him from Adam. And i don't even know who Adam is! :)

[BARTONIOUS]

Cosmic Gate = 1 person! :p

Here, if you like Picotto then you should try listening to some real techno DJs like Chris Liebling, Sven Vath, Richie Hawtin and DJ Rush.

[Addict]

Fergie!!! best dj ever, no?

Bass Generator, Generates The Energy

[Addict]

The Djs that have really got me going in the past.............
Fergie, Mauro Picotto, Judge Jules, Scot Project, Paul Oakenfold, Tiesto, Tall Paul, John 00 Fleming, Marco V, AJ Gibson, Armin Van Buuren, Joy Kitikonti, Ferry Corsten, Dumonde, Nick Rafferty, Andy Farley, Anne Savage, Lisa Lashes, Lisa Pin Up

The World's Finest

[Blagsta]

Richie Hawtin, Surgeon, Sir Real, Dave Clarke, Stanton Warriors, Smokescreen DJ's, Emma DIY, Nicky B, Danny Tenaglia, Gizelle, Liberators, Tom Middleton, Coldcut.

[BARTONIOUS]

Fergie is fuckin awful just now. Not liking his new sound at all, he should go back to his old ways of just banging hard house; what he does best.

[BARTONIOUS]

I heard him at Godskitchen in Ibiza and he was playing a wierd mix of hardhouse and techno, I coulnd't really get into it. Although I was feeling pretty wierd that night, maybe I just wasn't up for it!

[Addict]

u seem to kno ur stuff bartonious...ive seen fergie 3 times now, each time he has played an absolute blinder of a set, totally eclipsing those around him...however i do understand y u may think he is playin sum dodgy shit, i listen to him every friday nite on radio1, sumtimes he just doesnt do it for me...but u cant be perfect all the time...and u cant play the same bangin set all the time either :rolleyes:

[Addict]

on a different note, has anyone heard this tune Flesh & Bones - Rigor Mortis (I Love You), great tune for any trance fans, it was in the european charts quite a while ago but i believe its only bein released onto our shelves within the last few weeks...finally does ne1 know any good places to get hard to find vinyls

[BARTONIOUS]

Not heard the tune, but I know where I find hard to find vinyl, well actually I've forgot the address, but I'll ask my mate cos he knows.

About Fergie, he thnk he's trying to do something new, and credit to him for having a go at something different, should listen to a few more new sets and see if I can get into it. Now here's a great Fergie set: Essential Mix Live at Godskitchen @ Code 06/05/2001. BANGING! :D

[Addict]

must c if i can get a listen to that 1, i often tape him on the radio, so ive got a few sets, but unfortunately only on shitty tape. fergie played an absolute screamer this summer at Godskitchen Global Gathering in stratford, i flew over to him specially...well along with a few more of my idols, jules & picotto etc

[BARTONIOUS]

You can download sets from here: http://www.slsk.org

Picotto is alright but his music is "watered down techno" as in, it's a bit lighter and not the real deal. If you like his stuff, try listening to some real techno DJ's and see what you think.

Sven Vath, Carl Cox, Richie Hawtin, DJ Rush and Chris Liebling would be good DJ's to start with.

[Addict]

i used to be a big Carl Cox fan, i do listen to a bit of techno, have u heard any tunes by Umek...

[MattBomb]

umek - gatez (i think thats how its spelt) yes yes yes!!

[Addict]

that tune is umek - gatex
yea fergie has lost the plot a little but he'll get back on track hopefully. i was out clubbin last nite, Robbie Nelson & Gleave Dobbin playing, Robbie was gr8, ne1 else heard him. Goin to c fergie in october to sample him for a 4th time, c what he's @ like...

[asho]

best sets ive heard in the last year were from joy kitikonti, green velvet, dave clarke, erick morrilo, deep dish, danny howells, oakie, tiesto, picotto, digweed, timo maas, scot project. ill probabaly think of more later too.........:p

Agree totally..since hes gone on Radio 1, hes gone all commercial..ive got tapes from about 18 months ago, along with Lisa Lashes, they were class..

I taped his show on Friday night...and its music for girls...dont know if thats purely cos Radio have some say over his choice..but its not the OLD fergie.

it certainly aint the old Robert FERGIEuson, but i think wat u say about the radio station may have sumthing to do with it. i listen to him all the time...but ive also seen him live 4 times...and believe me, live, he is brilliant........so Judge for urself Jules :p

[Crazyredeyes]

Has to be Fergie, Lisa Lashes, Lisa pin-up & Timo mass for me !

Managed to see them all in Ibiza a couple of years ago, what a holiday. :D

[katchika]

I like Dave Pearce, Dr. Fox, Edd the Duck and DJ Otzi.

[BARTONIOUS]

Dave Pearce? Good? LOL :D

[katchika]

Actually, it was sarcastic. Shame you can't convey a tone of voice over the net at times.

Yo Fergie is still HARD when he plays live. He's well different on the Radio, much softer. But still, his live sets are wierd these days.

[katchika]

I know but I don't bother with smilies as my IE is set to not show images to make it quicker.

[BARTONIOUS]

Well I do slag him a bit, but I can't deny that I had a great time in Ibiza 2001 at his Euphoria night when I had just discovered dance music and pills!

[BARTONIOUS]

Yeah thats the only time I seen play live and it was a top nite, his euphoria CD's arent too shabby either, always serves up a few gud tunes along the way!

Oh yeah, forgot about his Euphoria CDs, yeah they are no bad for banging commercialish tunes
