For the first time ever James Zabiela is playing in the Twin Cities tonight! I can't wait. I also do not know what to expect given the diversity of his mixes. Anyone know what I can expect? Hope to see some Minnesota representatives of MS there tonight!

expect anything,, lol.. I saw him a few months ago.. AMAZING!

Re: James Zabiela tonight!

at birth i was diagnosed with a rare ability to control sounds via electronic devices....although rare it can be quite controlling.....i am only able to keep myself away from those devices only for a few hours....even though the same devices exsist at a destination such as a club.......i have heard enormous reviews of him!!!.....enjoy....upon his arrival close to me i WILL check him out...... :Bingo:

expect only the best :)

lucky bastard :P

I saw the guy 2 weeks ago in Liverpool, totaly blew me away he did. The guy is a total wizard behind the decks.

I can asure you he will deliver the goods.

he's very creative on the dex & efx. expect him to rock out with his cock out baby! :P :P :P :P :P

Didn't really like some of his sets but I saw him at Spundae LA and one word:

WOW!

Showtime for sure

does that make for special cross fader tricks?

^ yep. also includes flatulence samples. and echo'ed air dungs!

Re: James Zabiela tonight!

he is alright :wink:

Re: James Zabiela tonight!

Put it this way the guy won't stop moving all the way thru his set. He's mind works 100times faster that any other DJ i've seen and it blood [b]mesmerising[/b]. go what his hands on the CDJ1000's and you'll see what i mean :RockOn: :RockOn: :RockOn: :RockOn:

Re: James Zabiela tonight!

I think everybody can tell you that technically and musically he OWNS! But u must see him live from another POV too... he is so funny cos he's very shy, and whenever he hears the crowd going wild he smiles to himself and is almost afraid to lift his chin and looks at the crowd... i sent a VERY cute friend of mine to make a picture with him and he got all shy and confused around her.... he is like a little boy playing with grown ups stuff :P

woooooooo there. WTF happened..... was tryin to post and keep on come up with something saying DEBUG MODE so I though it wasn't working. SORRY

can i delete these or someting so I don't like such a dumbass.

Zabiela is pants, I can play better than him with my feet, whilst blindfolded.

Bullshit, if that were the case why do we never see your name up there with the rest of the superstar DJ's, I don't mind you having your own opinion that you don't like him but he's far from shite. Personally my opinion is that he's fucking awesome to see live, probably one of the most entertaining DJ's I've ever had the pleasure if seeing 8)

Re: James Zabiela tonight!

Saw him warm up the floor for Sasha not too long ago...and he had us all drop down breakbeatin' all over! Had a great time. Wow, and the dude's like only 23 or some shit. These guys with all the talent are sooo young. The future of electronica is in good hands folks. Off to see James Holden on Sunday-now THAT'S a dude that'll show you what the future of sound is...FUCK! Have fun tonight!

Re: James Zabiela tonight!

Have seen him live twice ... to be honest, it's not my thing, all that scratching. Maybe he's an excellent DJ, but I don't like his style at all. Even if he proposed me to spin in my living room, I would refuse it cause it would give me a headache :Wacko:

Gimme a deep, dark mix :wink:

You have to be taking the piss. If not, I am sure you wouldnt be opposed to us hearing one of your mixes. :?

His show at Simon's was right on to say the least! Was quite a fuckeroo that the club employees just killed his set though, but good choons and a great vibe nonetheless. Highlight of the night was when he dropped that Blur remix..."WOO HOO"...that was sick!

can't be missed. :Bingo:

^^^^^ that is a great choon! that tart on the bar was annoying as fuck tho. she couldnt dance at all, just got in the way of some good pictures. We did get some other nice ones though

Re: James Zabiela tonight!

Zabiela definitely lived up to the hype. He was sick as fuck! I hope I will be blessed with the oppurtunity to see him again someday. Thanks to all who threw in their two cents on Zabiela. Next week Sasha rolls into town. Sweet! :RockOn:
