[V Knid esq]

(starring cartmans mother and ...)
"iss maihine schaissä"
"iss maihine schaissä"
"iss maihine schaissä"
lol
muss man gesehen haben....schwer zu vermitteln....

but a lil bit OT but a lil more interessting than the clarkes dave...:)

[jukka]

hehehe..achso...ich habe den film auch gesehen bl0ß kann/konnte mich daran nich mehr erinnern :!
muss aber auch dazu sagen das ich den film nicht so berauschend fand....

[deccard]

kann ich verstehen aber das german scheisse video is mir irgendwie im kopf hängengeblieben...

genauso wie mir jmd letzten von dem engl. sartiriker chris morris erzählt hat. es ging um nen amon tobin track "bad sax" der samples
von chris morris´ radio show enthält.


"oh yeah shit your leg off. come on! shit your leg off! SHIT YOUR LEG OFF!!!"

"UH AH OH MY GOD I SHIT MY LEG OFF!!!!"

ein sehr anregender humor. lol

[Loz]

The only German I know is

du hast Rammstein.

[jukka]

I am sure dave has his lackeys scouring the internet looking for poor language concerning him since the broohaha that went down on the overload board.
shouldn't he be more concerned with like I don't know making records that aren't shite? how do you go from the red series to the lackluster stuff he has put out recently? hold on there is a knock at my door.....I think I am about to be shut dow.............

[MUX]

he wouldnt play over here in malta unless someone brings him a orange 'Gatorade'... and no i aint taking the piss

[namshub]

yeh. dc is a tottall knob gobbler.

[Basic]

I really don't have to say to much about this, my feelings were made clear a long time ago after personal attacks on myself and others in forms of "fit-ups" on other forums. A lot of in the background injunction type activity has occured and I don't wish to say any more as I wouldn't be suprised if Christian hasn't already had wind of this from other forum owners, I hope not though as the situation and details that transpired suck big time!!!

[gunjack]

too easy.

[bitch one]

oooh i love good strong storms brewed in me teacups.

[Articulate]

that all reminds me of some bloody topic on
the old board, i think...(about clarke)
i just remember it was sth concerning mag north
and senor vogel's, lambda. ep. am i right?

what was that all about, do ya guys rememba ?

[Sheridan]

weren't we supposed to have access to the old board? was it not backed up some where?? I kind of miss the ol 'BLUE BOARD'

Indeed it was laughably infantile, petty and petulant. It was even more bemusing. I don't know about the goings-on from the Blue version of this board, but I can imagine the same amount of underhandness was employed by our beloved Redonist

[deccard]

@sheridan: that was my first thought too...hm maybe we should collect signatures...

[@m.]

never met him, not the hugest fan of his production over the past few, but slag all you want.....i've seen him dj and I'm sorry, but he's one of the most insanely talented deck-nitions I've ever witnessed. I've never seen anyone work a mixer harder than him and I've seen him six times now. Respect to anyone who chooses to use the turntable as a tool to actually make something different, instead of just playing a record - any schmuck can do that. ...But I realize this site is more production-centric than anything. Dj G Force is another example of this - audio tricks under his sleeve I've never even dreamed of, but hasn't really put out anything great production wise in a while...same old production tricks all the time.

Any of you ever seen Dj Traxx from Chicago? Fuckin' mental....most creative programming + deck skills on this side of the world easily. Not sure exactly what he's doing joining with International Dj Gigolos as his sound is rather different, but hey....

just my two cents.

[Sheridan]

actually I concur with @m (where ya been man??). dave clarke is actually a pretty interesting dj. a little sloppy, but in a way that I like. and to this day probably my most favorite dj mix cd is dave clarke x-mix electro boogie #1.
that cd is sick sick sick!

[Basic]

I don't think it was his DJing that was in question, his attitude in general towards people (especially on the internet).

.............hehehe......you have my voice!

.........but i think to dissing dave clark is dipensable!!!
can anybody of you tell me, why youre dissing d.c.??
it doesnt matter if i like him or not but i dont much like your behavior.

peace

Equally any schmuck can flick the crossfader from side to side like this , BANG BANG BANG BANG and then let the other tune go , which is his bread and butter mix... also maybe the fact that he's wearing fingerless driving gloves helps with the 'fader flix

i find that sometimes his negative and confrontational personal energy transmogrifies itself into the mood of the audience, making for a pretty moody crowd , like a bad D'n'B crowd...

[Lady E]

bloody knid stirring trouble

DC = BORING

lets move on.

but the schmuck in question has to

1. own said record
2. choose the correct time to play said record

the best schmucks are the kind who play records that make people go crazy. no amount of knob fiddling and egotistic deckwankery can substitute for a schmuck playing great records in the right order.

[V Knid esq]

*snicker*

[V Knid esq]

p.s. I think he is a mindblowing DJ too. I have never seen anyone, apart maybe from Coldcut/DJ Food cut across so many styles of electro-funk yet sound so coherent.

[deccard]

@v knid: i thought coldcut have left dj food? do they spin together/under that name? they should be more often in germany.

[jamyna]

We played after them last week in @cargo in London. A great set, slick as you like and nice people to boot.

[@m.]

@Sheridan: Oi, mate - I've been stuck in the basement in a leather suit with a ball gag in me mouth for some time....have only now figured out how to cross the fisher-price telephone with a speak and spell to regain my internet connection! All that with my hands in plastic mittens behind my bum! (translation: busy as a mofo with a broken 'puter and a needy girlfriend!)

....

but the schmuck in question has to: 1. own said record
2. choose the correct time to play said record

MANY more things go into the djing equation than that though. Guarenteed that LOTS of dj will own a certain record that makes the crowds shimmy shake, and timing is but one approach....(which can change with the crowd, event location, equipment variables/opportunities and whatever record you choose to mix into it at that time!...I'm sure there are even more variables I'm not even
addressing)

.......

As for this part of it....I dissagree - that's really a producers standpoint isn't it? A producer would say that "My track was made as a unique expression of me and is therefore meant to only be played on it's own". Lots of dj's choose to use turntables as 'record players' and just play other peoples material, noting the 'correct' points to mix in and out of (trance music would be a great example of this - I'M NOT PICKING ON ANYONE, just stating the really obvious example). I'd hope that most would approach the decks in that unless you're playing you're own material, you'd want to layer, cut, pull bits out of someone elses material in a way that truly expresses you. This is done through the manipulation of the mixer and turntables plus whatever else you choose to attach to that equation. Listen to your favourite djs - they all have different approaches to those tools that makes them sound differnent than anyone else. That's why if you give two djs the exact same set of records, you'd end up with two totally different sets - it's not only the tracks you choose to play.


......blah, blah, blah....i think i've managed to skirt this whole thread a tad off the original purpose.

"Dave Clarke? Never spoken to him, but i imagine you could leave quite a red handprint on his ass is you slapped those tight leather pants." - @m.

[wheezer]

dave clarke - the pig city ep - stress records (12pork1)

is this prodcution any good?

it'd be up for grabs, but not quite free I'm afraid...

[MUX]

he high point of the career must have been that great remix of kremkraft 3000... sheer brilliance.. oh yeah..
i heard a story once that richie hawtin threw it off the decks into the crowd.. cause dave played it before him to piss him off

but i suggest we do close down this topic cause we seem all to know what he is anyways

[owain_k]

As it goes, I met the fella a while back....

OK, a little stand offish to start with but in the main was a pretty nice bloke and dare i say, not what many people make him out to be.

[wheezer]

@mux

the way I heard it he played it twice in a row becoz he knew hawtin didn't like it... to be honest, I think his kernkraft rmx is shit compared to the original...but then that wasn't original either, so I guess we all lose lol
