DJs that used to be good (but lost it)

[Dirk]

Always amazes me at the longevity of some DJs and how they have kept relevant. Thinking of your Carl Cox, Sven Vath, Sasha and Digweed etc.

What DJs do you think have lost it and failed to progress, keep relevant or just turned a bit shit?

I'll start with Paul Oakenfold.

 

[craig72]

Solomun

Has he done anything good since this

 

[Woodsy Ibiza 25]

Kills me saying this but Morillo. I used to follow him all over the place but he's lost that touch over the last 5 or more years.

 

[Crawleytown]

Solomun

Blast from the past that - absolute tune.

I used to quite like Jamie Jones’ stuff in his peak years of 2011/12 sort of time. I literally can’t listen to his mixes these days though, unbelievably boring.

 

[cunninghamali]

I still like Morillo and I like solomon...I know you don't like him at all @craig72 hahaha

For me Carl Cox....I liked him a few years ago around 2007 to 2009 at his night at space...he played a bit more harder then,
now he bores me to tears! Also he has a bit of a big ego now, nice guy but thinks space was all about him

ARMIN VAN BUUREN

 

[elmooreo]

Tenaglia

Also i know he still has the talent but really saddens me to see the likes of Kenny Dope churning out the same old crap as everyone else nowadays....

Who was the really good looking one in that ace DJ partnership? It was Dempsey and ??????

Same. Subliminal at Pacha was brilliant back in the day, went every year. Sadly he tried to get to cash in and started playing some cross over EDM shit for a time, lost any creditability in my books.

Solomun

Could also possibly agree, he drops in some absolute stinkers these days.

Subliminal Sessions at Pacha was amazing. Never understood why he went down the Sympho Nympho route

*The whole proctor saga was really grim - I knew a few people connected to that. Quite a few lifelong friendships shattered.
