Cox

Another comment, another praise! As so many people, I rate him so much. He has been on top of my fave DJs for so long. Incredibly, he has as much appeal to newcomers who are 18 than to 30 something like me...18 years ago! Ah, bless...
He has succeed in everything : he played house and was the best at it, he played hardcore and he people still talk about it today, then he focused on techno and trance and went to become the world best DJ, no question. Yet he has remained over the years the most friendly and down to earth man you' likely to meet. And after all those successful years, when asked what's important in life for him now, he says : "the music".
And I don't even mention the true "experience" that is attending a nightn where he is playing...
I love him, he enlighted many a good night of mine, yes I absolutely love him.
One day books will be written about him. Let's see in 20 years time.

As with all Djs Carl Cox has played many styles over the years. For me his greatest period was 1991-1993, he played hardcore breakbeat at all the rave clubs and it just suited his DJing style. If you can check out some of the live mixes from that era and you'll see what I mean, in particular 'Live@The Edge, Coventry 1993' and 'Live @Club Kinetic 1993'. They're superb.

CARL COX IS GOD!!!
What can I say about Cox?
He is the best dj in the world.
I was lucky last year in december to hear, see, feel him play. Me and my two friends decided to go 500km from our town to see him play in club Aurora, Primosten, Croatia. Man that was best spent money in my life! When he started to play I was in other world. The feeling that I had was something I can not put in words. The music he played was something I never heard before, not even on his live sets I have on my computer. Every thing he done that night was perfect. To know what I am talking about you must see him play. No other dj or drug, can make you feel like him. On that night he was payed to play 2h30min but he played 4h:30min of best music in the world. That was the best party in my life and I just hope the next time I see him he will play that way.

Carl will stay an all time favourite in the european scene, not only for his skills as a dj, but certainly because the man is one of the most kind people to be around. Not absorbed by the succes he had, he will always be remembered.

One of the truly finest, if not *the* finest. People who fail to see his greatness when it comes to diversity may sometimes regard him as a bit cheesy, however, while I listen to a shitload of other techno producers/djs, there are few, if any who can keep up the energy (like he does) while still retaining that underground:ish and funky feeling. Sometimes, he's in a class of his own.

Even though he plays different styles of electronic music (housey, techno, trancey), he's not what I consider an easy dj, ie. you won't like it the first time you hear it. At least I know I didn't!

Ps. My words! Not some Magazine description.
