So stoked to see a REAL DJ in the EDM/house scene getting more popular. Unfortunately there's only a handful of DJs in that scene that think outside the box getting super creative in the mix. Laidback Luke and the late great Erick Morillo were a few other names that come to mind, but I feel like James Hype is on another level than them at this point from a creative and technical aspect. Much respect.
I would agree with Luke, more like the late disgraced rapist Erick Morillo. I would also add Roger Sanchez, TJR, Chuckie, A-Trak to that pool of talent too.
@@UrbanLikwid Erick Morillo was really the first DJ to fully embrace the Pioneer CDJs (back around 2004) using the loop feature (with no sync back then!) in very creative ways. Roger Sanchez would occasionally throw in an acapella or something but I always felt like he was trying to chase the real innovator: Erick Morillo. Chucky is definitely more creative than the average EDM DJ, but not quite on the level as a Laidback Luke or Morillo IMO. I don't know why you mentioned TJR lol, he does the typical boring EDM sets with no tricks and creativity. I wouldn't really put A-Trak in the EDM/House category, he mixes w Serato & turntables and is more "open format".
@@stealth797 If you are using the category of "REAL DJ in the EDM/House" scene (like you mentioned above) why are we even mentioning Morillo. Morillo would play more deep tech, deep house, afro house or groove house for at least the past 8 years before his passing. I wouldn't even put him in this category with James. He created big drops with the effects on the DJM but really wasn't going technical like Luke, Chuckie, TJR or A-Trak. The only thing in common is he used CDJ's. You also must not know too much about TJR. If he played a huge festival he would stick to a more routine set "big room EDM set" but TJ started scratching in the 90s while James was sucking a milk bottle. If you ever seen him play a club set, he is highly technical manipulating loops, hot cues, effects and scratching. Not to mention uses open format between traditional house and big room bounce records to keep the attention of the undedcuated audience. He wouldn't be scared to drop LL Cool J in the middle of a break and mix back out into a Melbourne bounce record within a club setting.
@@UrbanLikwid because these clowns ain’t got a scooby doo what they’re talking about, these so called new generation of DJs like this prick James hype are ruining everything that was good about the scene I really don’t get why anyone thinks he’s good he plays the worst cheesy watered down piss poppy mainstream tunes absolutely awful
Spider, you are the man. James Hype is the greatest. After watching this interview, I want to have a beer with this guy. As a dj, I learned more from this interview than some tutorials. Great job!!!
Horses for courses innit? I have a ddj 1000 for my radio shows. Using 4 cdj 3000s plus a mixer would actually be a step backwards for me as i loose my sample drops etc. The gear dont really matter, as James said he was once a serato guy
Great interview BUT I cringed when he said ,"I'm James Hype, why would I wear Gucci" Hope his fame isn't going to his head. He's been pretty down to earth up till now. DON'T LOSE THAT JAMES.
Thankyou for having me guys! 🔥
💙

Come to Aus! Been following you for a while now and would absolutely love to watch you live.
Back with my notepad. Listen carefully this is valuable insight
Yes Beatsource!! Thanks for having the man on the show. James is the 3000 master 100%
Something so very adorable about the way this man introduces his show... It's hard to describe but it's very nice and I like it.

You are talking shit stealth 797
Thankyou DJ Spider, thoroughly enjoyable and extremely entertaining. Keep up the good work.
A Great watch really enjoyed that !👌
Thank you for the interview! You can do a better job in letting the guest talk more instead of cutting him all the time.
Love this show
I would love to see an old open format mix video from JJJJ JAMES HYPE
Spider, you are the man. James Hype is the greatest. After watching this interview, I want to have a beer with this guy. As a dj, I learned more from this interview than some tutorials. Great job!!!
I loved the video and im only saw 16 minutes🤩🤩
Such a brilliant interview. Great to hear both of you share your experiences 🙏
Came across one of this mans video n I instantly became a fan. Definitely my top 3..
Anyone DJ that knows anything about audio knows that AIFF is the best file format.
Very good interview, I like the decision taken to switch from open format to artist 🎨 dj/producer .
Who does this? 🔥
After the video i searched James hype failed at printswork 🤣🤣 I don’t even found the video
Smash that cue button guys !!!!
Ha!
James looks like the modern day Ozzy Osbourne!
Absolute Legend🔥
I wouldn't wish loading the wrong CDJ on my worst enemy lol heart sinking feeling
legend!!! i wish i had 4 cdj 3000’s and a djm 900 nxs2 . lol i would do the same!!!!

i could listen to this guy rattle off CDJ techniques all day
james is the dude
Let's go

Great interview BUT I cringed when he said ,"I'm James Hype, why would I wear Gucci" Hope his fame isn't going to his head. He's been pretty down to earth up till now. DON'T LOSE THAT JAMES.
