Old-Dutch great warm up DJs as well.

Miss those nights. Jamm was a great club as well.

Dave Clarke has posted his thoughts on this now:

Eric Prydz vs Ben Sims

A few days ago people were dm’ing me to get involved, but I didn’t see much of a point as guardian of techno (and the only person I have ever seen convincingly rock 3 vinyl decks consistently) Ben Sims dealt the blow and from the heart swiftly and humanely (considering).

I will say this though Eric is not wrong, but only not wrong from his context. Eric will only play at exceptionally commercial events and the “techno” he will view is formulaic, lack lustre and not what myself or Ben would call Techno. The problem is not Eric Prydz, a person who (for those here that are unaware of his existence) became famous due to a video of aerobic butts shimmering to a worn out cliche of a groove, but what “Techno” is now. He refers to what people in the general public think it is as he is part of that same demographic but with a longer history. Until “Business Techno” is not seen as the true heir to the techno heritage this will always be a problem, but there is way too much money involved which turns people , way too many venture capitalists involved.

Big up to Ben as ever.

    techno vs. Techno, sounds like a familiar argument.

    Grown men

    Dave and Ben are piling in, clearly triggered, while Eric hasn’t added to what he first tweeted. Call me old fashioned but that’s quite cool. Dave has probably spent/wasted about two hours putting that response together. So lame to still be referring to call on me 20 years and about 2,000 tracks later

        Dave Clarke played one of the worst sets I’ve ever heard at the Exit Festival in Serbia years ago.

        Machine gun techno which killed the beautiful prog vibe that had been in the air previously.

        This is still a belter of a remix, not a patch on the original, but a belter all the same:

        ‘blessed are the cheesemakers’

        'One more time, mate, I’ll take you to the fuckin’ cleaners!'

          Dave Clarke has always taken himself far too seriously. Pompous not half

          Do you know what seeing Dave Clarke in a disused castle in Serbia does show?

          MINERALS!

            Fort you’d known better.

            zackster Now to me, nothing is as cheesy or as grating as the toy town “techno”your sweetheart Nina peddles

            Smallman1 lol yes, I am sure you were a pillar of strength. Dave’s rolling out the 909s while you cautiously ask your friend if he think he will play the Peter Heller remix of South Side.
