int trance, //1 is valid, 0 is invalid
MC; // 1 is valid, 0 is invalid
printf("This is exactly what i think too/n");
printf("please enter 1 if u like MCs");
scanf("%d" MC);
screw it.. too lazy to finish.
the idea is i was gonna say if u say u like MCs, an output says STFU. Something like that

But for those of us who are recording this,
it's bad enough with the MC talking all the time.
I hope he understands that we're recording.

And I vote to ban MC's from the stage!


as if the broadcast wasn't illegal enough, you expect me to care about your illegal recording? mmmmmnope


Posted by Dmatrox on Oct-26-2003 05:40:

i suppose recording off TV or radio is illegal too? mmmmnope

who thought MC's were a good idea with trance? every MC that i've heard on a trance set added nothing to the music, it's more like it detracted from it, ok so maybe it might be different if ur there live but i'd much rather hear the music than someone yelling over it and telling us wat to do

King

mc = mouthy ****

ha neither is DJing, just playing music??



i agree tho. MC's really have no place in Trance. MC's have their place like rapping over Hiphop or something. and there are MC's out there that are super awsome.
i'm not a fan of lyrics in music in general. unless they are all distorted or in some crazy language i don't know.

MC's is the worst fucking thing that can happen to you at a party!


Ass****** DJ Jean is a pretty good example who does not only play some SHITASS sets, but he also RAPS to his stupid-house! Can you imagine that! RAPpING to Hard-House!"%(!"#%(!


DJ Jean also managed to ruin Ferry Corsten and Scott Bonds sets while they were playing after him at a party here once.

DJ Jean and MC's are better left out. Drop dead Jean!

not all MC's need to be shot, you guys need to checkout LTJ Bukem & MC Conrad - Progression Session vol 4. smoooooooooth as silk. Conrad more of a vocalist then a MC thats dnb tho.

but yeah, true - MC's for trance n other stuff is fuckin terrible, i really like pete tong's work on the essential mix tho, quick chat for a min or so right at the start with some info about the artist is always cool.

i'll bet Ferry was just a pissed as we wore!! maaan


Posted by teo on Oct-26-2003 19:21:

well im lucky coz here in greece at partys we dont have(yet) mcs bitching around and destroying a set...but we have somethin else..i remember when i saw oakey there was a stupid man playing a tribal shit(dont know the word for the instrument) and he was ruining oakeys breakdowns...and i remember after some hour oakey looked at him in a very serious and nervous way and the guy just stopped and we didnt heard him from that point...it was very funny...

damn that would have been a fun program to see!! hehe yeah mcs with trance are terrible!! i was at a club once and some dj was playing when some mc started 'being cool'. after like 30 seconds the dj turned off a TT motor and let the track spin out, and then took some mic, said shut up, muted the MCs mic, and then started the track up again. ahhh it was so sweet!!!!

about time everyone starts doing it

The ASOT MC isn't too bad. I think he makes an effort not to talk when the good parts come. But in general they should not be there even in a radio set.

Well, lets be honest, there isnt much 'music' there to start with, so enhancing it isnt hard...

Great to try and dance to in a club tho.

How can you say that? you must be joking? If you arent have you ever tried DJing? No one can beatmatch their first time, it takes practice, then as you get better you must gain knowledge of new technologies and master those to implement them as well, i would like to see any fucking MC do what james zabiela does, any one, i doubt they could come close to his level even after a year of straight practice.

Anyone can grab a mike and ruin everyones evening it doesnt take anything more than a few drinks to make an ass of yourself. Djing is a job, especially when you start producing.


As for the rippers whining, i want evangelists voice in the rip haha, i thought that was fucking priceless and i would laugh my ass of everytime i heard it when i was repeating the set heh.

Anyone can be an MC. DJs need to know all the equipment they use and have a good ear for music. With electronica specifically, they need to remember how a song sounds so they know what they can make a transition into. Anyone can be an MC, like the one on Ferry's set, and ruin the entire damn thing.

pls dont remember me of that a**hole.......

This particular MC must be the most hated MC on TA ever!

The guy sounded very much like the MC who MCs @ the Matrix nightclub? I'll never forget he's trademark:

"If you can't handle it, then get the F***K out!"

bahahaha

I do agree that in terms of uplifting/driving trance, MC's shouldnt be involved - but for stuff like Drum N Bass, or even funky prog-house, it gives the set more atmosphere [of course, provided the MC's tone and flow goes with the music].
Agreed also to Pete Tong being a good MC.

i was just about to talk about that guy, i have a video of ferry playing at matrixx nijmegen and there's a guy standing behind him and ruining everything by screaming random shit into the mic


if i were ferry, i'd turn around, knee the guy in the nuts and bash his skull into a bloody pulp with the microphone.


MCs and telemarketers are two jobs that should be erased from the face of the earth and people who are willing to work in such positions should be shot and sent to hell.


Posted by Shad0wmaster on Oct-27-2003 01:01:

i hate MCs. i've never heard a set or been to a party that had an MC who didn't ruin everything. kill 'em all, i say!
