Does DJ Rankin write his own music?
No. And that has been the source of much of the controversy surrounding him. Like most DJs, Rankin simply mixes together elements of other people’s music. By attaching his name to these mixes, without giving credit to the original artists, Rankin has led many of his fans to believe that he was the composer. This has angered many in the DJ community, who view this behavior as little more than piracy and completely unethical.
Isn’t that also illegal?
Well, it certainly violates the copyrights that the original artists have on their recordings. There are rumors that DJ Rankin is being sued by one or more artists whose music he has used, but these are unverified.
What songs has DJ Rankin used in his mixes?
A list of his mixes, along with the names of the original source material, will be available on this site soon. We encourage everyone who has downloaded and enjoyed DJ Rankin’s music to support the artists he has borrowed from.

Yeah, DJ Rankin, Crap. Heard that he was a fake and all. Belived it ana. He's just overrated "Wow, anyone can remix music. Add some bass, yadda tadda mcfadda. You see all these folk going around our school. Wow, heard the new DJ Rankin song, I got it on my peapod, mp4358 player etc etc. Then you hear them going down the corridor with the hardcore bass going through the speakers. Though I do that aswell, but with different artists other than DJ Rankin. Ha ha. Anyway he could at least put the oringinal songs name in the title with (remixed by whoever) in it. Then it wouldn't be so bad. Cause they'll know who oringinally did the song.
1. He actually admited they are not his. I've just blazed one of his "mates from school" proving to them that Gordon is a fake and they are not his tracks.
2. If he actually did good remixing. ERGH i mean.. c'mon some stuff is funny but its getting boring same old same old every track...

Too right, I hate that kind of happy harcore or whatever you call it kind of music. Its just werid. What I would do is slow down the tempo of the music, and play it too his fanboy/fangirls to prove them wrong
