Re: SASHA 2005 technical rider

The digital DJ and the "new" Sasha. I'd have to say that I am for it, because I love DJ sets, but really miss live shows too. In Florida, at least, a decent live show is very rare. Groups like Hybrid, Crystal Method, Chemical Brothers, BT (older stuff mind you), Underworld, and Evolution never do the live show anymore. Most of them are finding it easier and more cost effective to play DJ sets only. So perhaps live shows will re-evolve through the spread of Albeton and what not.

Sasha is still cool, but seriously, if I wanted to hear James Zabiela I would listen to James Zabiela. I think that Sasha was once his mentor, but now the tables have turned (no pun intended). Why is Sasha spinning breakbeats? It just really fucking sucks, especially when people pay more to see Sasha than any breakbeat DJ. NOT COOL!

Sasha has always "spun" breakbeats, and Zabiela isn't even in the same league.

Umm...Northern Exposure 2 East and West Coast edition anyone??? Both of them almost all breaks...and from '97. Airdrawndagger and Involver are almost all breaks. I've actually come to associate Sasha with breaks more than anything in the last couple years.

And you're right, Zabiela is good, and will get even better in years to come, but almost no one brings it like Alex (for my money anyway).

Re: SASHA 2005 technical rider

Northern Exposure yada yada yada...how about the GU comps? I'm aware that Sasha had dabbled with breaks here and there, but when I last saw him I thought he was Tony Faline. Don't bother bringing up any of his previous works, because entertainers are usually as good as their last performance. I last saw Sasha at the Blue Room in Orlando, and he SUCKED! If I have seriously offended someone's hero here, I would like to apologize in advance...

I am sorry.

Re: SASHA 2005 technical rider

Nobody said anytihing about offense dude, just trying to show you that breaks are nothing new to Sasha...mix album, live or otherwise.

no need you are entiled to your smelly farts.

Re: SASHA 2005 technical rider

um...okay

This was a Sasha issue, but it has now become a syntax issue. I wrote Sasha "SUCKED," and then I apologized (in advance) if that was to offend anyone. So please return your seats to the upright position and put away your tray tables. You may continue to use your electronic devices as long as you don't confuse yourselves on message boards.

WOW!

Re: SASHA 2005 technical rider

just his set the last time I saw him. Not everything Alexander the Great has accomplished. Come on man, he made Xpander. I can't say that his entire career has been for shit now can I?

Xpander

Its ok mate, iv'e seen him a few times and hes been well below par, not lately though, think hes right on form at the minute :P

Re: SASHA 2005 technical rider

^^^ A whole new form IMO

Re: SASHA 2005 technical rider

...while other big name djs, who shall remain nameless, appear to be somewhat off their form lately

(not entirely relevant, but after the beating Sasha took early last year I think it's worthwhile to note that he reinvented himself while other choose to stick with convention, 18 months later look where that has brough us)

Re: SASHA 2005 technical rider

I just had to share but didn't want to start another Sasha thread!

My friend just won a competition to be one of 40 special guests to see Sasha perform his EM on Saturday night and then hes going to Fabric. Hes allowed bring a friend. I was meant to be going but couldn't make it! WHAAAAAAAA! I have so missed out! WHAAAAAA!

Re: SASHA 2005 technical rider

Damn, that sucks. I would do whatever it took to hit that party up. :shock:

Re: SASHA 2005 technical rider

The proof of the pudding will be in the eating as they say.

The last time I saw Sasha was his b/day do at "We love.." Space last summer ... it still sends a shiver down my spine now it was that good. I'm off to Fabric on Saturday to judge for myself and can't wait.

His music last year was constantly evolving with different sets at Air, Renaissance and Pacha/Space ... and different sets again from the late 2005 MP3s.

... I'm also very much looking forward the his forthcoming EM :although why the beeb managed to clash the broadcast with his 1st UK appearance of 2005 is just plain stupid - and very very poor scheduling.
