To all those deeming it necessary to dis Carl Craig: Just *a few* of his releases: Carl Craig - At les 69- Desire Psyche - Crackdown BFC - Galaxy Carl Craig + Sarah Gregory - As time goes by Paperclip People - Throw Innerzone Orchestra - Bug in the bassbin 69 - 4 Jazz funk classics Just *a few* of his remixes: Dave Angel - Airborne (Carl Craig's drums suck remix) Incognito - Out of the storm (Carl Craig's Planet E special) Brian Transeau - Moment of truth (Carl Craig's Urban Affair dub) Domina - Domina Sueno Latino - Sueno Latino La Funk Mob - Ravers suck our sound... While it is everyone's right to like or not like Carl Craig's music, it is absolute bollocks to call him 'formulaic' or 'commercial'! Take a look, or better yet, listen to the above list and then tell me what the formula is or where he has gone commercial. If this is defined as being commercial, I can name a few other artists that are commercial as well.... Carl Craig is one of the *very* *very* few artists who is continuously innovating his sound, constantly seeking new directions. How many artists can you name that are as versatile as Carl Craig? Herbert, AFX and Moritz von Oswald are all I can think of. Otto, thoroughly pissed off at such ignorance
