Absolutley two different genres - my point is about that a nostalgia DJ playing the usual 30 records off say a lap top offers zero scope for creativity - however if we took the top 30 classic house records, again off a lap top but mixed by someone like Parker it's a completely different ball game with creativity by the bucket load.

thats why I have little interest in the majority of nostalgia scene DJs - even OVO. Might as well put an iPod shuffle on  

the big difference ive found between the two scenes, is that the house crowd want great music, the ns crowd want great specific records. groove vs song besed genges I guess.

True - and the groove and nature of house allows for more creativity. Off topic but i cant help myself  

What is annoying is that a certain section of the house scene are copying the nostalgia scene - going to venues to hear DJs line Jeremy Healey  ($#!@) play the records from their youth  (with minimal mixing or creativity) moaning if new stuff is played, thus a load of past name DJs from the 90s heyday popping up doing nostalgia spots. Very familiar

The fact that there are only 153 posts, some of which have drifted a long way from the initial question makes me think, and I seriously hope I'm wrong, that apart from the Nostalgia scene the answer is NO.

guilty as charged, I've put, park, whitehead, mccintosh on over the last couple of year but, all their sets mixed old and new. Parky was particularly creative digging up things from 86-96 we'd either completely forgotten or never heard before.

I thought he meant "I seriously hope I'm right" / so "NO" stands 

No is good (If answering the thread title)

There's a difference right there though Geeselad - nothing wrong with a mix of old and new. In fact pm your venue and we might make a visit - Kev H wants to tag along too

[Geeselad]
