1. It's funny cause nobody can barelely see Carl mixing because the stages he plays are just too big.
2. There are DJs doing too much, Hawtin is not one of them. There have allways been the guys who tend to believe they need to add effects to anything, but destroy the mix by doing so. Some DJs even mix like shit, but they are still worth it in some way, for the promoter, because these guys fill the floor. It's still a big mystery to me how Mr. Guetta for example is not capable of handlling two CDJs

3. I don't think anybody critisizes the success. In Richie's Case it is well deserved and I believe if he had not gone trying to push himself and reach the next level, there would not be a Model1.
