>>>I'm certain that Derrick May didn't became didn't become to be known
because
of his DJ skills. The lines between musical artist and DJ once again become
blurred.>>>
are you kidding me? derrick has spun some of the best sets i have ever
heard in
my life...
and he damn well better have been known for his dj skills cause he hasn't
produced a record of his own in what, 10 years?
have you listened to the mix-up cd? that's how he really sounds, and if he
didn't, then he was having an off day...
i wish he hadn't played so hard at demf, i like his salsa-ier and housier
sets
better, but he still rocked it... and i think he should have closed out the
event, not rich..
peace,

I second that! I had the good fortune to be in the booth watching
Derrick spin a set a couple of weeks back. It was a sight to behold. And
funky as hell. He rocked it.
A good friend of mine, who happens to also be a very skilled DJ, was
watching in awe. Said Derrick was the best techno DJ he'd ever
heard/watched. You'd have to put up an extremely convincing - make it
airtight- argument for me to think he's not at the top of the game.
peace,
Jorge
