Also:
Body Oil (as Infinit) - 1999
Mind and Body (as Model 500) - 1999
Never Tempt Me (as Infitini) - 1999

I could go on and on... Just don't have the time to list all of the aliases and remixes he's done in the past 5 years alone.

I haven't seen Juan spin since 420 in Cleveland which must have been 95 or 96 and before that the Metroplex 10th Anniversary party - but each of those times he has played incredible sets. Each of his 3 sets at the Metroplex party in 95 was unbelievable - he played one house, one techno and one jungle.

So to summarize I don't think anyone has any right to talk about Juan as a DJ and definitely not as a producer.

Once you do half of the stuff he's done then you come back and you can talk shit.

Jazz Is The Teacher/Cosmic Courier/Bassmental  1993
Sonic Sunset/I Wanna Be There  1994
I See the Light/Pick Up the Flow  1995
Techno City 95  1995
Game One/Think Quick  1995
Higher  1996
Skynet  1998
Never Tempt Me  1999
Be Brave  1999

And the Deep Space album (1995), one of my five or six favorite
ones of the decade (along with Orbital's "brown" album,
Mr. Onester's "African Dream", etc.)

Juan Atkins started a revolution in the 1980s.  OK, that's not
enough for you?  His track record in the 1990s is damn good.
Or maybe "Cosmic Courier" and "Game One" didn't rock the house
worldwide, that was just my imagination I guess..

Finally, his "just a bit" at DEMF last year was almost all his
scheduled time.  It was probably the most atmospheric moment
I can remember -- do you all remember the color of the sky
and the lightning while he played?  And it was a good set too.

I wish people would get off Juan's case.  But I guess I'm
asking too much, right?

Disgusted,
