Full marks for getting Rodi on the decks, but 4pm? This man should have been one of the headliners! As with the Hard House yesterday there was not a foot paused in the house, except this time the tent was getting busier and busier by the second. Rodi was jumping on the decks, literally getting up onto the table to mix and was only gaining more respect from the crowd with everyone either dancing away or asking who this guy was. If there is a must see DJ of 2008, Rodi Style is definitely that DJ! - Craig Clarke (6 minute magazine - Global Gathering article) (http://www.6minute.com - article here)
"The guy is incredible, easily the most technically able DJ in hard dance right now! He makes it look so effort less, forget what you have seen in the past, this is guy has to be seen to be believed.
He is so committed to what he does, he is even moving from his native home in Canada to the UK to further him self as a DJ and producer. Rodi Style is probably the most exciting and ground breaking DJ to come out of hard house in the last 4 years! He is a name that is hot on every promoter and clubbers lips right now having generated huge interest from all the major players in the scene and having all the top DJs talking about him.
The best hard dance DJ I have ever seen! So I feel extremely proud that Storm was the night to bring him over to the UK and give him the exposure he duly deserves." - Garbo (UK) (harderfaster.net interview)
"Rodi Style, he's making some big waves at the moment, he's got his own sound and he's a really nice guy, I hope he does well." - Paul Glazby (UK) (I love VC interview)
"Had the pleasure of meeting this geezer at the weekend in Calgary, and was stupified by his technical ability. Some of the stuff I saw this guy do with a CDJ and a DJM 600 is wrong!" - Technikal (UK) (www.tidy.com forum)
"he is one of the best up & coming talents I have seen in a long time. His djing is perfect & his productions are awesome too!" - Ben Stevens (UK) (www.dontstayin.com interview)
"Playing truly banging hard dance with a flair and skill I've not seen in a LONG while, I can honestly say that this is a DJ you really ought to look out for. Great scratching, chopping and sampling techniques thrown in for good measure, this guy pulls out all the stops and is a real crowd-pleaser." - Chris C (UK) (www.bangingtunes.com forum)
"Rodi is awesome, one of the most technically gifted DJ's you will ever see, believe me, he had me & Technikal in awe, get down there to see him, great lad too!" - Digital Kid (UK) (www.dontstayin.com forum)
"By far hands down the sickest dj I have ever seen, and I've seen a lot of talent but nothing like this. He has got to be the CDJ champion of the world! I don't think there was one button the cdj he didn't push! He used just about all effects on the mixer in the sickest ways. Not mention his mixing and scratching on 3 cdj's was fuckin phenominal!!!" - Plate Tektoniks (USA) (www.bangingtunes.com forum)
