George Acosta and Sasha. I don't hear any difference between the two of those jokers. In fact, are they really the same guy?

Re: Overrated DJ's

^^^ I was all pumped up to hear George Acosta a few months back as everyone was telling me how good he was....maybe he was having an off night, but he bored me

Paul Van Dyk

This bloke cant mix, cant program, bizarrely has the ability to make brilliant records sound crap. If you listen to the 1999-06-18 - Nikita, San Francisco set of his. He plays some records Sasha was playing at the time. They sounded mediocre when PVD played them and amazing when Sasha played them. And this bloke has been number 1 for the last 2 years

I think Dave Haslem said it all in his book Adventures On The Wheels Of Steel (The Rise Of The Superstar Djs) about Paul Van Dyk. Dave did an interview with Paul and went on to one of his gigs afterwards. His records where played in no particular order, he'd play the wrong side of the records accidentally, and didn't really have a clue. Read the book its interesting.

Apparently he has been learning !! He played here recently and everyone who saw him absolutely raved over him,and there were quite a few people whose judgment I would believe in!!

Re: Overrated DJ's

^ but there is a problem with this: why are people paying 50 bones, even more, to watch him on training wheels?

Consider jokenfold as an example.
