Jumpinjoan Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 Richard Caiton 'I'd like to get near you' First played out by my my good friend Andy Whitmore... more years ago than I care to remember... has to be coming up to 20 years or so I would say. I agree though... awesome tune...

Barry Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 Is there room for 'playing it safe' these days? The statement comes up frequently - and if people do, how, that is if they aren't keeping feet on floors, do 'these people' get bookings. Is it not just again, opinion?
Simon M Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 for me it was Jason P of Carolina , what a great Radio stream he did , top funk and soul all the way

Kevinkent Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 Is there room for 'playing it safe' these days? The statement comes up frequently - and if people do, how, that is if they aren't keeping feet on floors, do 'these people' get bookings. Is it not just again, opinion? I thought "playing it safe" was keeping feet on floors. There's better and more imaginative ways of keeping the floor going, but how many times have you heard a DJ revert to the same old same old, when he hasn't got a feel for the floor? Sticking Nolan Porter on halfway through an R'n'B set, in order to get some on the floor, is a distinct sign of failure IMO.

Kevinkent Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 Hi Kev, Have you spent any time as a DJ? Yes Barry, and I can't find my Nolan Porter!

Dylan Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 for me it was Jason P of Carolina , what a great Radio stream he did , top funk and soul all the way massive inspirastion to me these shows. George Campbell "get it on" one of my best buys of 2007. And from such a young guy it shows there is some hope afterall.
