Why he might be annoying:

    He is known by multiple nicknames (including Allure).
    In the (in)appropriate light, he resembles Jack Webb.
    His nickname contains a dieresis above the ‘e.’
    Among club fans, a nasty legend developed that he drank more than 30 cases of Red Bull within 24 hours.
    His constant touring ruined his chances at a wedding he really wanted.

Why he might not be annoying:

    His childhood nickname served as the basis for his alias.
    He did a live performance at the Athens Olympic Games (2004), making him the first DJ to perform at an opening ceremony.
    Most of his live shows – lasting six hours or more – feature no other DJ’s or performing acts.
    He received three consecutive #1 DJ billings by DJ Magazine (2002–2004), making this claim on his website legit.
    He was named the official ambassador for Dance4Life (April 2006).
    His radio program airs on a station that only started out in 1992.
