Avoid Villalobos when Hawtin's about in my experience. The Taka Taka mix CD from 2004 (I think) was rocking, but then mix CDs tell you nothing about what they're like in reality.

Villalobos really is a good DJ in my opinion, at least in the last 18 months for sure. And he does not be any means spin all minimal sounding stuff in his sets. He's got a lot of tribal house type vibe going much of the time actually. And as you mentioned, also acid and 313 stuff sometimes. ~David On 1/9/07, fab. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > yeah man....but that works in general.... > > if you're a crap dj, you're a crap dj - and for me a crap dj is one that > sticks to 1 whole genre for the whole set. > > the reason i respect villalobos for ex.
