He still did that horrible, annoying, playing Star Dancer backwards out
of time with the current track thing that he loves doing though :-P

Yeah sometimes he just comes out with great track selection, and
that's really all I ask for really. Luckily for me every time I've
seen him over the past 10 years he's played some great tracks. Most
recently in Sydney (last year at the Marrickville bowling club) he
even mixed pretty damn well as well as having a good selection. So I
think it really depends on the club, and the style. Don't write him
off.

but you are probably less perfect than
Juan. Sorry.
i think you meant less talented? it sounds like you are confusing him
with moses or whoever....he is not an especially talented
dj...everybody knows that...and juan isn't either..
jb was right....the mix is garbage...tepid generic clubbiness with an
underwhelming sprinkle of detroit flavor here and there...not great
techno...but personally i set the bar is pretty low for Juan and this
isn't as awful as he can be, or kevin saunderson-level shitty...it's
listenable...
but there are plenty of superior dj's on the 313-list and all over the
place...every couple years you hear juan is dj'ing cool stuff but this
looks/sounds like a promo mix for euro-club giggin...zzzz...nobody is
judging juan for his dj'ing or wack taste, it's nothing new, he's a
still a crazy genius for his own productions..remember this tho
http://www.discogs.com/Juan-Atkins-Wax-Trax-MasterMix-Volume-1/release/3001
so it's fair to hope he'd play some higher quality stuff...like real
elitist techno...thats what i want..
