Yeah, Rolando is a great example of a DJ who uses 3 decks and doesn't play loop-based stuff. Played with him earlier this year and was proper...
Good point. There is a bigger onus on the DJ to do something more because the tracks themselves don't do much. Trouble is, alot of DJs (maybe...
I'm talking about all of Techno, every possible sub-genre you can think of. My point is, there is alot more to Techno than the looped up stuff...
I'm talking about all kinds of Techno.
Si - I just said it :D Your just talking about one kind of Techno there mate. Not all of it is the looped stuff thats getting discussed here....

Cox is another terirble example how to DJ on 3 decks imo. Techno as its being talked about here (looped bollocks) for more than 5 minute is...
? Not a fan of the current stuff Vath is doing, never been a fan of Beyer. I don't see your point.
In my opinion, Umek is the definition of mindless loops. Alot of Mills' mixes are way off, but the things that he actually does pull off more...
Alot of DJs bang on about how many decks they use, etc, etc. But most of the time the same result could be created using two decks, so whats the...
I doubt he means that :lol: I wouldn't put Clarke, Hawtin, Vath and especially Carola anywhere near Mills, nevermind this Eddie chap.
