    Top five DJs/PA’s (everyone can throw a few names in the bag but please write a few words to let the rest of the board know why you think they really are so good).



    1.DJ Rush –Heard him a few times and has been impressed every time. His mixing skills are not close to the standards of Hawtin or Beyer, but fuk me does this guy know how to get the crowd going, one after another, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM… He never plays too fast, its just right and always hard as fuk… Amazing stuff.



    2.Green Velvet – Heard his live set at the Reading Festival last year and it was awesome. Just hearing Red Light (in my opinion the best Green Velvet tune), Flash and The answering machine live, probably made my year… Wicked stuff.



    3.Dave Clarke – His greatest set (in my opinion) was in the Glastonbury dance tent. He was playing the same time as the Chemical Brothers, I made the right choice. His set was awesome; I have never seen a crowd react so well to techno in my entire life, the man is truly gifted!!!



    4.Billy Nasty – Another true great, you never know what to expect from him. He is absolutely brilliant a building his set up. His ability to wein a house music crowd into techno frenzy is amazing.



    5.Marco Carola – Some compare his style to Jell Mills, I’ve never heard Jeff Mills but if he sounds as good as this chap you could not go wrong. His mixing is spot on and his choice of tunes, well look at some of the tunes he’s produced. Nuff said…





    Sorry to leave you out Mark but you are up against some stiff competion…

    in no order...



    Steve Rachmad - heard this man only once but it was one of the best 3 deck hard minimal techno sets i have heard in some time.



    Marco Carola - 3 deck master. getting a bit softer as of late. Probably the smoothest of the bunch.



    Valentino Kanzyani - Saw him for the first time a few weeks back..very creative smooth mixing. the guy has a blast behind the decks..you cant help but get into it.



    Adam Beyer - rocked a boat party here in nyc this summer...i thought the boat was going to sink.



    Sven Vath - always loved the diversity and the guy is a pure nutjob.





    mills and hawtin are always a given.

    Must agree with Zoki Adam Beyer Rocks, heard in Ibiza last summer and guy is @#%$ mental. His mixing abilities are spot on.



    If any of you have not heard is style download his set from The Timewarp 06/04/2002 (djsets.com). It is fuking amazing.

    3) Adam Beyer - my oh my went to see him last nite, the mans a ****in legend, sound as @#%$ too and even played his set with no shoes on!

    4) Richard Wilkinson - one half of Ignition Technician and he is one heck of a Dj, fast hard techno with some amazing electro now and then

    5) Dj C1 - not as hard as the rest but my word can this guy get a crowd going

    1. laurent garnier - no explanation needed.



    2. cristian varela - always trying new tricks on 4 tables.

    3. ben sims - i saw him in detroit at an afterparty and he was perfect.

    4. marco carola - when he's in the zone, he's flawless.

    5. mr. mark eg - he can break a turntable cover on his head, and still finish a mix without missing a beat.
