I think it's kind of bizarre that every producer is expected to be a dj and vice versa. Why don't people just do what they are good at, and leave the rest for others?

As for Juan, I know very little of his music, but everybody knows his name...

true, when someone is a great producer than people expect they are great dj's. i wouldnt call his mixing a trainwreck just because he's juan atkins, but he definatly aint a magician. and yeah,his track selection aint bad at all but sometimes it seems that he is playing for himself

the problem is Juan was good at one time, then he became a crackhead, and now he sucks - period

actually, many dj's have drug problems
a lot of them don't get through the day without a few lines...
and it's mostly those of whom you wouldn't suspect that they're sniffing
well, it's their nose... and their wasted money
