Well, I heard him spin at 2008 in St. Louis last month, not knowing
*anything* about him other than that he was a popular DJ from the
Limelight in NYC, and I thought he did a *great* job. Cool-ish
proggy-house (by _no_ means one of my preferred styles), spun
well with careful attention paid to set-sequencing.
One of the promoters was talking about how, unlike most out-of-town jocks,
he arrived early and helped them work on the sound, and how he stayed
around the next morning spinning at the after party for free...
Remember, "don't believe the hype" cuts both ways.
