yes...not embracing technology when playing 'techno' is something
i totally respect.
If you think techno music came about using equipment that was technologically advanced for its time, then you'd better do some research son!

Are you kidding? Electronic instruments turned music on its head and hte music world was caught quite off-guard. It doesnt matter if any of the tools used had been already available for a few years, these tools remained ahead of their time after their production had ceased. Techno certainly did not come about from production and recording techniques of less technological nature. They were essentially fucking around with computers.

answer was that Jeff's alias in the 80s was "The Wizard"... me and my gf got to
see Jeff performing for the John Peel sessions at Maida Vale in London, when
John was still alive. About 20 ppl in the studio, John was bringing the beers
and total craziness was floating all over... James Ruskin was also there as
another fan of Jeff... the show was aired live, and we got to see an extra 15 mins
exclusive madness while he dropped some early UR vinyls. i have to say that Jeff
is one of the most modest, shy & friendly persons around.
it's still and will remain an unforgettable experience for me

How lucky are u mate? I would kill for that honour

[quote="Rich"]He is quite messy as a dj, and either pulls it off and produces an amazing set, full of adrenalin and energy (really great!) or he just doesn't get into the flow and spends the whole time trainwrecking and making awkward errors...

I've seen him play both kinds of set, I've seen youtube videos of both, and heard people's reports of both... Basically he will either blow your mind with a full on, energy filled crazy stomping set, or embarrass the dancefloor with basic mistakes and errors. Very unpredictable!!

(Personally I dislike the fact that he plays so many of the same records for such a long time. They must be wafer thin!! For someone who must get sackloads of promos and free records, he sticks to playing the same few tracks. Seems to be living in the past and relying on former glory to me...)

I disagree with all ov that above. I seen the man at the warehouse project recently and it was 1 ov the best sets ive ever heard cos he was headlining the event. If u see him at space or sumwhere he wont step up to the plate! He just goes thru the motions.

But i would never say he lives off former glory oh no he just doesnt seem like that sort ov dude! He plays in a traditional Detroit way which is more than can be said ov Derrick May and the likes!1

Big up Jeff!!!
