whats everyones thoughts on Fergie now that he is playing techno?

He killed it at the last Gods but he keeps/kept getting added to trance line ups and he doesnt play frigging Trance or anything close to it

I'm sure at a night with the same music policy as him he'd go down well cause he's a good Dj.... when he's sober

Re: Fergie

im guessing you are thinking of booking him?

proper wank i wouldnt say i ever enjoy fergie if i wanted to listen techno id would defo go for someone like kanzyani like just dont like fergie he kills a club by himself

his agent is asking me to book him.
when ive been on my travels his name has been popping up at some cool clubs and the promoters ive talked to all say hes playing very different now
im just curious to know what the kids think

sawhim at firefly lastyear and he was the bollocks imo, nice blend of tech house and techno. really good entertainer aswell. he also played tangled in manc other week and went down a treat

Fergi at the 'dig?!?!

WOW - he must have changed!!!

i know he's been getting panned alot recently... i ain't heard him for a long time - well... May 04 i think.... i remember pontape.... i'm sure all the techno-purists HATE him and he's probably been disowned by the Harder generation... he's in an unusual position...

i always used to really like him....

Yeah, he did kill it @ Gods but, if they'd put any other dj who plays his style or similar (no matter how good they were) they'd of probs done the same....

I wouldn't risk booking him, i've seen him play class before but I reckon he's too much of a liability.

I'm not a techno purist but i thinks he's gash.

He will playing miminal by the end of the year.

If going down the techy route get laurent garnier instead or derrick may.

thanks for taking the time to voice your view guys...keep em coming

Everytime ive seen him always had a good night

He was good at coloursfest and met him after and top quality guy

Fergie

That coming from me means he probably shouldnt be booked for shitdig.

tut tut :evil:

I've heard him play some class techno sets, but haven't heard a good report about him for ages. I'd say he's a risky booking, bit like getting Gazza for an after dinner speach, you just don't know what state he'll arrive in

I seen him at nation play in the techno room and he was fantastic, same when i seen him play promise the first time, but then i seen him at global in the trance tent where tbh he couldn't do anything but anthem bash with the slot given. Not sure how he'd go down at the dig, either way if the regulars didn't go there would still be loads of ex promise punters who would show.

he played the best set i've ever seen at the end, god knows how anyone could keep a set flowing and a full crowd for 7 hours, they even left the club open an extra hour he was that good.
