Best DJ from Each Continent

#5578Post 1 of 622004-10-17

I'm sort of interested to know what people think about this.

So who do you think the "best" DJ is from each continent? (excluding Antarctica and the Arctic ... but if you know any DJ's from there feel free to list them.

This is my opinion:

Europe: Sasha South America: Hernan Cattaneo North America: Luke Fair Asia: Satoshi Tomiie Australia: Anthony Pappa Africa: ???

Whatever the case, Europe definitely seems to produce the largest amounts of talent. North America is an amazing place to party but our talent pool seems a little stale in comparison.

Re: Best DJ from Each Continent

It would be a good party ... people vote (like in the Muzik poll) for the best DJ's from each continent, and maybe also a category for "best up and coming DJ's". Then all the DJ's that win play at one party. I would go to that party ... hopefully Tiesto wouldn't win like he always does.

Re: Best DJ from Each Continent

For the U.S., I'd had to say Chris Fortier. He gets a lot of traveling done on the global tip.

I agree with Hernan 100% but i'd give Europe to Howells...then again i've never seen Sasha live

was the "RAVE Act" ever enacted ?

#283212Post 20 of 622004-10-21

I don't think Pappa should come under Australia, nor should Satoshi under Asia Satoshi even more so than Pappa, he's been based out of New York for almost his entire career which goes back a while now

I'm not sure who you'd pick for Asia, maybe DJ19

#283217Post 21 of 622004-10-21

Re: Best DJ from Each Continent

Europe: John Digweed South America: Hernan Cattaneo North America: Pat Foosheen Asia: Satoshi Tomiie Australia: not Anthony Pappa but dunno who Africa: cannibal(man eaters)

south america = Cattaneo rulez :Blazed:

#283546Post 33 of 622004-10-21

Adam Freeland is only a recent arrival to our shores... bah.

If I was going to nominate the best DJ in the Australasia region, I'd put my money on [b]Robbie Lowe[/b] or [b]Kasey Taylor[/b].

Speaking of those guys... Robbie Lowe is soon to be a Proton Featured Artist, and Kasey Taylor's just started his own Proton show with Chris Meehan called [i]Vapourized[/i].

As for Pappa.. nah, he can't qualify any more. Same with Cass. Kid Kenobi? Definitely Australia's most popular, but there's plenty of others who are 'better' - like Phil K, for example. If you want to go for the popular vote, Mark Dynamix is a much better technical DJ and has [i]much[/i] better music taste on top of that.

(And yes - Infusion definitely are the best in the country for a live act and Nubreed as a runner up.)

Aussie, Aussie, Aussie! :)

wow your choices were spot on to what I would have chose, except I would have chose Dave Seaman for Australia. North America is still relatively new to the scence compared to Europe, mainly the UK, but I think we are starting to get some good talent like Luke and Max Graham.

#283550Post 35 of 622004-10-21

Dave Seaman is British, bud. :)

(and c'mon guys... since when is "the arctic" a continent?)

#283552Post 36 of 622004-10-21

Re: Best DJ from Each Continent

when I chose for North America I was only thinking of Canada, cause I have to agree that DEEP DISH rules as far as the US goes.

(and c'mon guys... since when is "the arctic" a continent?)[/quote]

oops, I guess I thought that cause he's always in Melbourne. I talked to the guy once, guess I should be able to tell between Australian and English accents but it was loud in the club

#283756Post 38 of 622004-10-22

Re: Best DJ from Each Continent

Dave Seaman and Adam Freeland are both British...

Satoshi Tomiie and Deep Dish have been in the US (and Pappa in the UK) so long that it's difficult to put them into other categories...

For Africa there must be a couple of DJs from Cape Town in the reckoning ? Dave Seaman did a GU mix from there so must be a couple of decent DJs...

Kasey Taylor is definitely up there for Australia and Sean Quinn used to rock, although I think he went a bit 'banging'...

I saw one of the residents at Zouk in Singapore about six years ago who played one of the best sets I've ever heard so there's a few of them in the reckoning (especially with the new Zouk in Kuala Lumpur)...

And is America one continent or two? I'd always thought it was two (North and South) until I had a conversation with an Argentinian girl earlier this year who spent a year in New York and was horrified that they were taught at school it was two continents when she was taught it was just one continent...

Where does that put Central America she said? And I sort of mumbled it was probably North as the line was probably drawn at the Panama Canal.

I always thought I was good at geography... Anyway, off-topic :NotMe:

#283809Post 39 of 622004-10-22

Africa - Carl Cox Well I know he doesn't live there, but I'm sure his family eventually came from Africa, before moving to Barbados... :lol: :WinkNSmi: j/k

Europe: Valentino Kanzyani N. America/Asia: Deep Dish
