    Re:: Best Warm Up DJ

    James Zabiela when he opened for Sasha a couple years back. He was more low key with his bag of tricks and totally out to prove himself. He built the anticipation up perfectly. This year at Mansion, though, I thought he was disappointing. I think he's out of "opening DJ" practice.

    Sean Cusick for Digweed, or anyone for that matter. He never really goes for the big tracks anyway, so his style is perfect for an opening set.

    Three when he opened for Lee Burridge was fantastic as well.

    Those three get my vote.

                dave cannalte (balance) opened for diggers at ICON orlando (march 2001-pre wmc)
                one of the most intelligent perfectly programmed sets ive ever witnessed.

                jimmy van m drops some beatiful music, and if he feels like it, can rock a party senseless. never had the pleasure of hearing moonface open.

                heard steve porter open for sasha here in oct 2002...incredible set. very building and energetic. very nice guy to boot.

                only time i saw sean cusick open for someone was the pre-delta heavy party in Orlando @ hard rock. good housy stuff. get yer ass in mood kinda groove. but nothing over-exciting.

                my vote is for jimmy van m.
                the man can deliver any given set on any given night. a real artist.

                  Yunus is very good; also, the less known Oliver Berge, previously one of the usual suspects at Arc...
                  Will work for Sasha sets

                    precisely my words

                    Liquid Todd for Oakenfold. I like his progressive/breaky sets better than Oakenfold's. In fact, I saw them last weekend... they were in town and I went, 'cause, well they were here. Todds set was awesome and Oakenfold's was as to be expected (though train-wrecked less than expected). I told Todd his sets were better than Oakey's and he gave me this look like "are you kidding?", I also said he rocked WMC and said another comment about it... then he knew i knew what I was talking about. Then, he gave me the "thanks bro, that means a lot to be told your sets are better than the greatest has been DJ in the world"

                    LOL

                    good times :wink:

                          Ok ok I understand everyone's opinion, but seriously Luke Fair is the best warm up dj in the fucking world! No contest, who elso would rock it and have a conversation with you about his productions and djing techniques? Must I elaborate?

                          Nuff said.............
