diamond jigsaw live?

I know that was a joke but so is Oakenfold and I had to sit through that pricks set three nights during the US tour. It's fun to make fun of trance pricks but it's not so fun when you have to endure Oakenfuck before Underworld. This isn't 1990 anymore, Oakenfold is not an acceptable opener. Make fun of Van Buuren, but please don't allow Oakenfold to come anywhere near an Underworld live show.

Speaking for everyone in LA, as long as they play their own show they can have any opening act they want.

Ehhh? Who mentioned Oakenfold??

As for the song...I do love those synths!! Kind of campy but I like that. I wish the electric piano sounds from the Doogie Howser TV intro got used more too. Great sounds.

i saw underworld before oakenfold. how cool is that?

First time hearing this track.......
It's good, but it belongs on the "Teen Wolf" movie soundrack, not on a 2010 Underworld album. It's got the trademark UW groove though, which is a plus.

i thought oakenfold hit his commercial peak along around 98 with that elvis remix. either way he wasn't good then and isn't now... it would be more appropriate for a prog band to play than oakenfold... the two just aren't related.

Diamond Jigsaw rocks. End of. Close thread.

I think Oakenfold was good in the 90's when he focused more on a goa-type progression sound. I also thoroughly enjoyed the Swordfish soundtrack he made. Once he did Bunkka, it all went downhill for me. I've grown to really dislike trance music a lot. It sounds the same to me and I'm really tired of songs using poppy girl vocals that have to be edited like crazy in an attempt to sound decent. I'm probably being harsh, but man...

As for Diamond Jigsaw, I like it minus the campy synth. lol @ Dirty Canuck; I can imagine this playing in the scene when the wolf is "surfing" on top of a van. Good ol' 80's flicks.

I think I have you beat...

At Ultra Music Festival (during the AHDO tour) - I had to sit through BOTH Oakenfold AND Tiesto! Oh man... such a HORRIBLE experience. What was funny, is that while Tiesto was playing, he completely lost the crowd - most of them sat down, then the promoter actually came out to try and "hype" the crowd a bit. SAD

I also had to deal with Oakenfold at the Hollywood Bowl show... two of the people I was with actually brought their Nintendo DS -es to play during his set (smart idea)

and...

at the Hurricane Festival - THE COUNTING CROWS.... seriously yea... "Mr Jones & Me" and everything...

and yea - Oakenfold is a joke, but he did at least have a few random good remixes (U2 - "Mysterious Ways" and "Numb" Duran Duran - "Out of My Mind")
