Pretty much what [url="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=868"]James Lavelle[/url] did on Cream Live #2 back in 1996

[QUOTE=AchtungBaby!;1033820] Facepalm. This is either hilarious, or very sad, and I can't figure out which!In 2012 you can pay someone to make a track for you, pay someone to buy it enough times for you on different accounts so it enters the beatport top100, pay someone to get you loads of soundcloud plays so it looks popular, what's next? Pay someone to mix records under the table for you while you stand there in the dj box, twisting knobs, fist pumping and blowing kisses to the ladys?We, the electronic music community, don't care about chart positions, plays or (fake) hype. We care about carefully crafted, quality, non disposable music that has been made with love, and as a result: touches our soul. Share this photo if you agree with us. This madness needs to be called out!

Soma records

At the end of the day, personal taste its the key but.... you know :not me:[/QUOTE]

You could upload 12 minutes of silence to Beatport and pay someone to download it. However once Beatport took their cut of the profits and you paid the guy to download them all I reckon you would be seriously out of pocket yourself

[url="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=447"]Swedish House Mafia[/url] loves you!!!! LOL.

Chunky, you are the only one on here speaking sense and calling people out on their music snob bs. I appreciate your posts.

Music is primarily entertainment, if you feel like you can be critical of those entertaining 10's of thousands because you, or those you deem as "underground" can lay down some clean mediocre mixes on a sick pair of 1200's you are f'd. If any of you think guys like Sneak wouldn't trade places in a second with guys making real money like Guetta or SHM you are delusional. Those who can't are just bitter, bitter, bitter... taking shots at those who can and continue to progress.

at least supporting SHM brought you out of 10 months of lurching on the forum. welcome. :)

Re: Dj sneak calls swedish house mafia "dj actors"

Chunky you keep taking my nick into your mouth repeatedly even though i backed off from this useless thread. But let me tell you this: it never was about "haircuts, jackets, and looking like a miserable cunt behind the decks".

It's about not going with the herd, refusing doing things which might be more beneficial economically based on actual trends. Hell, most of my fav djs dance behind the booth! And the haircut thing is simply stupid. You really think top edm people couldn't replicate the SHM success if they wanted to?

As i said, there will always be advocates of popular vote, as there will always be people thinking democracy is the best system available.

And regarding the 'personal taste': It's like with the cars. I would never say my taste in cars is comparable to someone who drove 10 times as many cars as i did. I would never say my taste in literature is comparable to someone who's been actively reading books since ever and has 10 times as many books as i do. In fact, i would say my taste in both cases is absolutely inferior. The only difference with music is that it's 'free and easy to listen' and people tend to be lazy to do their own research and consume everything that is available to them in the simplest way (radio, tv). It's ok, it doesn't make them worse persons, they are just not interested enough to do more and are satisfied with simple trends.

And please: stop being a FUCKING MORON talking about the djs i know as 'backstabbing bastards'. I don't attack you personally.

[/QUOTE]

And then you did it again. Who are these [COLOR=#ff0000]Top EDM people you refer to? [/COLOR]The ones earning the most money, the ones playing the biggest crowd, the ones maybe are the most popular. Or the ones keeping it real and underground. They wouldn't happen to be the ones you just happen to like by any chance.

Funny how you mention following trends. In the back in 96/97 when Drum & Bass was being peddled as the next big thing [url="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=5"]Sasha[/url], Digweed & Oakenfold all started to introduce some into their sets, in the early 2000's when Break Beat was being peddled as the next best thing, [url="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=5"]Sasha[/url] & [url="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=2"]John Digweed[/url] where both playing it. Digweed was quoted as saying in Mixmag that a 3rd of his sets where break beat. What came next? Oh yes Electro I seem to remember them playing lots of shite Electro. And don't get me started on minimal. Sounds like following trends to me.

If someone talks about you behind your back and can't say it to your face they are what's known as a two faced back stabbing bastard. So until you name (& shame) them they will remain two faced back stabbing bastards.

Re: Dj sneak calls swedish house mafia "dj actors"

You're a natural born hater, chunky. Keep working on your attitude, make it even more aggressive and narrow-minded and maybe one day you end up being a typical high profile establishment politician. You proved yourself to have perfect moral preconditions to achieve it. Give people what they want to listen! How could the majority be wrong at all?!?

Hey I'm not the one slagging off Artists & Fan's or harping on about "The True Clubbing Experience" what ever the fuck that is. Does that mean we won't get a name & shaming then? or the Top EDM People either. :sad face:
