Seems like it's just become like a club with a bad atmosphere nowadays. Everyone slates everyone, and everyone else slates everyone else.

the remix is cheesy, yes. But that last comment about him specializing in cheese is unwarranted. Check the hardwax (Rob Hoods label) label to hear some top quality real techno that is near four to five years old but still sounds killer. Check the atomic whirlpool ep by Missing Channel, or the Toxin 12 ep by the Vision, this shit aint cheese at all. I myself don't like his newer stuff to well, but his old stuff on Hardwax mainly is wicked shit, incidently it has been repressed as well. derek
