I somewhat have to agree with you there, I think Dave Clarke is one of many
largely overrated dj's of our time. And on top of that he's an arrogant
pompous ass as well.
But you can't judge a dj on one mix. You should listen to more of him and when
you have the chance, see him in action. I only said he's largely overrated.
Not that he's a bad dj!

I heard people here talking about Dave Clarke, and I've heard him compared
to Hawtin in other circles, so I decided to give him a shot. I downloaded
'Dave Clarke - Live @ I Love Techno [Red Room]' from Napster and I would
like to know, has anyone else heard this? <RANT> What the hell is this guy
trying to do? Excessive use of Pioneer DJM-600 effects on cheesy default
settings, no regard whatsoever for 4/4 timing and proper breaks, and a
complete lack of song selection seemed to be the obvious problems I saw.
Hawtin could make a more entertaing show with the original RCA phonograph
and two volume controls. </RANT> On the good side, he has some nice
crossfader technique once in awhile.
Sorry, I had to get this off of my chest, but if someone out there knows of
a good set by our esteemed Mr. Clarke, please clue me in.
Regards,
Tim
