Gareth Emery

Gareth Emery is a Trance DJ, he's from Southhampton but now resides in Manchester! For being a trance dj, Emery has been classically trained to play the piano, dabbles in Jazz and some Rock. Which ofcourse makes his music interesting. Recently (saturday 4th Feb) I was supposed to go to a club called The Arches to see him play a two hour set alongside Sander Van Doorn (amazing) anyway, I never made it to his set. So instead I drowned my sorrows in his amazing podcasts and music.

I'm going to share a song he's been a big part of:

Now onto the next...

Sander Van Doorn

I don't know too much about Sander, I mean Wikipedia wasn't too helpful so I sacked it

.

and onto the next...

Carl Cox

Carl Cox is god. Literally. The first time I seen him I was like WTF I did not expect him to be behind the decks. It's all usually skinny ass white boys. Carl Cox grew up in Lancashire, England. His first encounters with music was mainly Hardcore and Rave (we've all been there mate) and was nicknamed the "Three deck wizard" after playing 3 turntables simultaneously. One of Carl Cox's dj "highlights" was played the Millenium new year (1999-2000) twice through clever timezone use. Which personally I think is very impressive and he must've had masses of dedication.

This is all I can be bothered with, I'll be back though

Right so this is the script. I'm beginning to love rap now, I'm finding it hard to find some good artists that aren't also mainstream radio artists too. I'm in love with The Game and his crowd. Also Nicki Minaj. She's better than ALOT of men rappers. Hopefully some of you lot can help me out on my quest

Daaaaassss Raaaaaccciiiiisssttttt

Cheers guys, I'll give them a wee listen now

I haven't posted in here in too long.

A little of the new music I've been getting into will be posted!

Laidback Luke, quite overrated but I still like his music and he puts on a really good live show. He's a crowd pleaser! IMO, he doesn't do very good collaborations but plays well live because he uses other peoples songs.

NERVO, two lady dj's I discovered through my best mate. I love their vocals more than anything else (the do their own vocals.)

This is just a local dj who supports most people here, but this video isn't about music lol ecstasy.

Did anyone vote in the top 100 dj 2012 poll?

I can't get onto it

but if I did these would totally be mines;

1. Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike, they've absolutely smashed this year. The set they played in Glasgow this year made me cream my pants.

2. Axwell, I have incredibly high hopes for this man now that SHM has broken away. Hopefully he breaks the mold and pulls away from the style of SHM and goes back to his 'old' ways. Axwell has always held a good place in my heart.

3. Steve Aoki, he's really grew on me the past while. He has loads of potential and in my eyes has came a long way.

4. Fake Blood, just because I say so.

5. and I cant think of a 5th to be honest. I'd like you to post yours and your opinions. If anybody even has any.

FETCHER. · 04-12-2013, 12:18 PM

I wrote out a whole fucking post for this thing. An absolute belter.

Going to need to try and re-write it. I've marked forums read and deleted a whole journal entry in one day. I'm gonna freak the fuck out if anything else happens.

FETCHER. · 04-12-2013, 01:50 PM

I would like to thank Guitar Bizarre because I deleted this whole thing and he helped me retrieve it

.

So... it has been a while. A long while since I've actually wrote out anything productive in here but I marked all threads read so I guess I have nothing better to do with my time

.

Where to begin?

I think I'm gonna begin my entry around the music that means a great deal to me, regardless of genre/popularity and so.

This particular song means an awful lot to me because when my wee gran died (RIP) I felt as this song was blatantly following me around and my life at the time was so relevant to the lyrics in that I felt so sad and angry that someone I loved so much had been taken from me. When I was much younger if I needed to be alone or needed a good cry this was definitely on my playlist.

This one means a ton to me because it single handedly got me into everything I like today in Electronica, I will always be eternally grateful for being introduced to this song at a young age because when I first heard it I had no real concept of music and thought to myself "dayum, I want more of this shit" so I got more of that **** and haven't looked back since so I consider it a really special song. That and the fact I've heard it like 465684165106 times and still love it more than life itself.

I listened to this loads when I was young because my mum and dad were into Queen, when I was young I used to love the fast pace of the song and probably got me into a good bit of trouble for being hyper and on more than one occasion. I appreciate the song much more since becoming older, I literally rock out to that **** on the way to college in my car. Such a feel good tune and never ceases to put me in a great mood. I love it.

This is really special to me and I don't care what your pretentious asses think, I remember having an argument with Rickenbacker about it years ago and I know most of you won't appreciate it and already think it's crap but I frankly don't care. When I was 11 one of my childhood friends unexpectedly died through accidentally falling into the river Clyde and drowning. It was seriously horrible to experience as a child not really knowing what was going on but knowing it was really bad. This song can make me cry on demand because all the memories I have tied to it. My friends family decided to have a personal funeral for their boy and this was the song chosen.

I'm gonna post songs that ALWAYS put me in a good mood, because who doesn't like hearing those?

I only recently discovered this one (well recently compared to the rest I'm gonna post) and it's such a feel good tune that I literally cannot help myself but sing along to it and mimic the parts that have no vocals. It is absolutely packed with happy tones!

Reminds me of summer, who wouldn't be happy with memories of summertime when we all go down to the local river and drink cider with blackcurrant and occasionally jump off a big ass rock at the side, meanwhile there's a dead sheep floating 20ft downstream (that did happen once). Seriously though it reminds me of sunglasses and high waisted shorts because who wouldn't want their summer to consist of those?

How upbeat does this sound? Love it. Such a happy little tune. Even makes me dance a little when I hear it and I NEVER dance haha.

Needs no explaination, just listen.

Welcome back Kay: great to see you posting again!

Glad GB was ale to help you retrieve your post. That happened to me as well and some of the stuff I had to completely rewrite including a review of Maiden's "Number of the Beast" which I KNOW was not as good as the original review I wrote but I had tried everything and eventually had to just recap as much of it as I could remember. Bloody word processors: give me a pen and paper anytime, er I mean quill and parchment!
