  Paul Oakenfold Albums & Lyrics @ SongLyricsLibrary.com
Paul was one of the guest DJs at The Stone Roses’ legendary Spike Island gig, and his work with Osborne on The Happy Mondays’ classic Pills, Thrills And Bellyaches LP (NME’s 1990 Album Of The Year) won the pair the 1991 Brit Award for Best Producer.
Oakenfold was very probably the world’s leading DJ and certainly one of the crucial figures in the relentless rise of club culture, yet there was still no album that truly represented his own personal landscape and musical vision.
Oakenfold also started regular ‘Balearic’ club nights in London, attracting not only the regular London dance audience but also a cross-over of youth culture and styles, including the UK rock bands Happy Mondays and The Stone Roses which were subsequently to become pivotal in influencing British popular music.

 Paul Oakenfold: A Lively Mind - PopMatters Music Review
Perhaps that’s why Paul Oakenfold, even after years and years of churning out the same emotionally shallow commercial club fare, still has such a passionate following; this populism that has simultaneously delighted casual listeners and frustrated those hoping for some small indication of progress.
Oakenfold’s idea of writing a song goes like this: build up a riff (quality: optional); throw in a pre-set house percussion loop; and to top it off, a flourish in the last bar of the 8-bar phrase, a vocal shout or melody.
For his vocalists, Oakenfold ascribes to the Famous Name theory of songwriting: the greater the name recognition of the guest vocalist (however mangled or miniscule their actual contribution), the greater the selling power.
