Tottaly agree here which is surprising considering that just about all of last year he was really consistant. THis year I got sets that are insane and others that make me go "WTF...". Either way Hernan is still the man :P

Re: Hernan Cattaneo Appreciation Thread

Hernan should be 1 DJ by popular vote for this year. He's been cranking out some solid sets and I hear nothing but great reviews from those who see him. Nothing but respect for this guy! :!: :!: :!: :D

Re: Hernan Cattaneo Appreciation Thread

Saw Hernan Cattaneo at the opening party of Renaissance at Pacha in Ibiza about 6 weeks ago. He rocked!!!! HC is A1

Re: Hernan Cattaneo Appreciation Thread

I heard Hernan for first time in my life in Buenos Aires in 1998, i have stayed in B.A. in my hollydays. And i maked me fun of him. For me is the dj of the moment!!!!!!! :P [img]http://www.hernancattaneo.com/photos/050610-earth/4.jpg[/img]

Re: Hernan Cattaneo Appreciation Thread

the thing with hernan is his consistency .. went to ibiza for the opening parties a month ago .. the dj's were shyte ( behrouz bing the exception) too many ham it up doing the breaks thing , instead of letting those who love music get into it.. was totaly pissed off with seeing dj's smilling at a crowd which was begging for beats to kick in ( anychance we can get a petition together to ban breaks)

Re: Hernan Cattaneo Appreciation Thread

i just recently began getting into his metro sets (even though they have been available for months) & it caught my ear quite nicely.

Re: Hernan Cattaneo Appreciation Thread

Hernan stopped in Indianapolis, Indiana for a quick set with Paul Oakenfold this year. Which I thought was great due to we are a small dot on the map as far as electronic music goes. HE ROCKED A GREAT SET!!!

Re: Hernan Cattaneo Appreciation Thread

[quote=chuckc]I am totaly blown away by the mixes I have heard lately from Hernan. Especially his Kiss mix, his Metrodance Mixes from May, & Southfest

Is it just me or is he pretty much taking over the progressive scene?

I mean I still think Digweed is the master but damn Hernan is right behind him.[/quote]

Hernan squashes JD IMO

Re: Hernan Cattaneo Appreciation Thread

I notcie when someone starts a thread like this, all of a sudden, there are a ton of people that you don't usually see posting here that come out of the woodwork.

Frankly I think he's a boring dj. I think a lot of prog dj's have become lazy in the recent times. Mostly to do with their mixing. I listen to Hernan and Martin Garcia and Tim Skinners sets and they never seem to mix any more than the last 30 or so seconds of a song. Never truly blending them together. When I play out I always blend the last 1:30 to 2:00 of a song. To truly make the songs seem to blend into one another. I don't hear that too often today.

If you think his style and sound is boring than that's fine, but to say that HC doesn't blend in tracks 'properly' is laughable imo.

You may be able to 'Truly' blend songs into one another, but are you able to take listeners/clubbers on a consistant emotional, musical, roller coaster ride for 4 hours+, week in week out all over the world?

Exeptional mixing is important but still, only part of being a great DJ.

Nick Warren is a perfect example, most say he's not a great mixer. But what ever he lacks in the mixing department is easily made up in his ability to seriously rock dance floors everywhere he goes. His trackselection is amazing.
