"you seem to have this idea that DJs only like the type of music they are known for playing. That's so far from the truth it hurts. Almost all of the DJs I know listen to very little dance music outside of the club." I agree so that's not what I was saying - I just meant that DJs like Carl Craig and Kevin Saunderson (the kind we discuss here) are not 'party DJs' and aren't expected to play records that "ordinary people relate to" - they won't get booked at a student gig and get asked to play Gloria Gaynor - at least not in Europe

Acquaviva, while sometimes veering into cheese terrritory, has always been known for dropping in something fun and familiar and a little tongue'n'cheek during his sets. and the original "electric Avenue" is the f**king jam! ##################################################################################### Note: Any views or opinions are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of Channel Four Television Corporation unless specifically stated.
