    Legendary DJ's

    Who in your opinion should be in the Top 10 Most Legendary DJ's? Who's done it for decades? Who has never let there standards drop? Should Oakie be there for starting Ibiza, John Peel for bringing music to the masses?????

    I would have to have for starters, Van Dyk, Sasha, Matt Hardwick(Mostly for what he did at GC) and Judge Jules(who has done alot for this kind of music)

    Mine would include Sasha, Digweed, Danny Tenaglia, Oakenfold, John Peel and Jo Wylie (if you count radio DJs). Probably Judge Jules and Pete Tong too.

    Oakenfold, Sasha, Carl Cox, Grooverider - alot of the early pioneers of the UK scence for me - and then recent ones who have took their thing and made it a success, i.e. PVD... but it's a tough call... there's so many

    carl cox should definitly get a mention in here, someone who hasnt let the standards drop in over 15 years - not so sure about the other 'big or bigger' names in there that seem to have hit and miss standards. eg. sasha.

    tong imo is a fuckin legend, but seems to have dropped off the standards a little bit of late and looks like he's trying to cash in a bit while he still can

    :king: good call.

    if we're going down that route, i think Jazzy Jay needs to be in there aswell.

    i thought it was a dance dj only thing.

    I know he's not in many people's eyes, but he almost made Crasher what it was, so in my eyes he's a legend!

    Carl Cox is defo legendary!:king:
