I saw him spin here in Cardiff last year, and he was pretty awesome technically. He played quite a few Portishead tracks, but played around by using two copies, looping the intros, delaying one copy by 1/2 a beat, spinning one backwards exactly in time with the other etc. Lots of scratching, lots of hip-hop, trip-hop, jazz and stuff. I've never seen a better technical DJ, although Jeff Mills comes close... see ya ____________________________________________________ tom churchill e-mail: tom@chrchfam.demon.co.uk 'each new hour holds new chances for new beginnings' dj/musician/clubber/reviewer......scene but not herd ____________________________________________________
