Re: Best DJ you've seen live.

Digweed - Last year, invite only party here in Sydney on a Tuesday night. Tore the place apart. Michael Mayer @ Glitch here in Sydney start of this year. Zabiela 2 and a bit years ago (Every other time after that he hasn't lived up to his own hype) Infusion @ sweetchilli about 3 1/2 years ago Jonathan Lisle on Good Friday this year Layo and Bushwaka! 4 years ago. Stanton Warriors 18 months ago Drumattic Twins 18 months ago

Ask me this question in 1 1/2 days time and I'm sure Digweed knocks himself out of first place with the set his is going to play @ home here in Sydney tomorrow night. I can't begin to tell you how pumped I am.

Re: Best DJ you've seen live.

john digweed @ the Whiskey in Calgary on July 7th, 2002. digweed had missed an original appearance due to illness, and vowed to make it up...and good lord did he. even the bar staff were dancing. apparently he even thought it was a great night, cause he said it was 'the best sunday gig i've ever played' on the kiss show the following week.

Re: Best DJ you've seen live.

Andy C and DJ Hype back to back in room 2 of fabric. Feckin awesome, relentless for 2 hours solid. And i mean relentless.... think i lost a belt size that night from the sweat.

zabiela's 4 hour set at gods kitchen a couple of years ago was well ace, followed by Carl Cox in the main room (both great live DJs IMO)

Jimmy Van M has really impressed me both times ive seen him.

Digweed @ Renaissance opening party Amnesia 2002, crystalised my respect for the man

[quote=chuckc]oy yeah that was a blast to..not as good as the orlando us fall tour...but stll awesome....[/quote]

Was the fall US tour the one at the HARD ROCK LIVE in Orlando? because if it was, I will agree that that show was killer, especially because they were on two turntables and a mixer. and they played a lot of classics 8)

Re: Best DJ you've seen live.

Timo Maas played one of the coolest sets I've ever heard a few new years eves ago. It wasn't technically the best, and his tracks aren't especially awseome, but he just kept the crowd going for all 4 hours or so. I'm not a fan of his recorded sets, but being there was sweet. Time flew by.... the sun was up before I knew it.

Re: Best DJ you've seen live.

i was :shock: with the delta heavy tour with Sasha and Digweed in nyc at the wwe restaurant/lounge.

Re: Best DJ you've seen live.

I've had loads of great nights out. Even Pete Tong banged it out in Milton Keynes back in 1998.

In no particular order:

Dave Seaman - Awakenings Release party at Ministry of Sound London. Hearing the baguio track on that system was special

DJ Pippi - Pacha Ibiza - great warm up set - he played BT-Remember. I nearly cried.

Sasha - Creamfields 1999 - just prior to Ibiza release. Awesome

Digweed - Es Paradis, Ibiza 1999 - very few people in the venue, which made for a better night as only the hardcore were there. He played Xpander, another special moment

Tenaglia - Heaven london 2000. Absolutely amazing night. Even Digweed was dancing in the crows that night. I looked to my left and saw the GU fat lads off their faces grooving

Re: Best DJ you've seen live.

My answer is so easy .:) Hernan Cattaneo Darkbeat/Sunny party June 2007. It was a really magical night . I've had lots of great nights but this night was as close to perfect as you could possibly get. Everything was just right , every Dj on the bill played briliantly.! Wonderful crowd.! As I said, magic!!!!!! :D

#1305553Post 67 of 102

Re: Best DJ you've seen live.

Just saw Francios K a couple of weeks ago, right up there with any of the others for just the diversity of the music and how a DJ could take such eclectic sounds then develop it into a large idea and expression.
