I asked Airwave in a recient Interview what was the worst thing in the Industry, he said Tracklistings and how they breed spawns of specific people and lack of individuality (hence why im proud that i play about 30% indie Tracks in my sets).

the only people killing the dance scene r the djs there overpaid
there the moaning ****s not us clubbers have the right to expect a decent set we r the ones paying there wages.

i think TA amongst is having a limited impact with people being too anal about OMG that tracklist is so old, i really hate djs that play new tunes just because they are new. But i also think there is a bit of one-man up man ship between djs to play the newest songs.

there now seems to be such a gap between the big four djs, (particularly Tiesto and PvD who would fill any club in the world), less so for Armin and Ferry but they would pull in a big crowd pretty much anywhere.

But there is not alot of trance djs that come close to that, i really can not see another newer name becoming as big and that is what will eventually suffocate trance.

well, Airwave has always had something stuck up his ass when it comes to tracklists. he seems to be a bit of a hothead. i remember him cussing me out on the ASOT chatroom once (back when the show was still decent) because i asked for a tracklist of Armin's last hour. dunno, that man just needs to chill. i can't believe of all the negative things there are, he feels tracklistings is the worst. he must be one of those guys who plays a record and wants no one to know what it is.

What are you talking about ??, he's posting his tracklistings on TA!

If I could directly kill the music scene i'd stab it in the eye with a steak knife, that way people would spend their time arguing about more important things. Or switch to arguing about things that are just as important, like whether or no goat shit smells the same as human shit.

when a user replies to a specific post, quoting it, it is sometimes smart to read the quote, and more often than not, will prove with a means of understanding to said reply.

i guess. but i don't see any other reason why he believes tracklistings are evil. ah well, not that i really give a rat's ass.

lol oh yeah i noticed they spelt it wrong on the fliers. wasnt too happy about that.

okay, to be honest a lot of people take things too seriously on here.

Just thought i'd start of by stating that ...

Anyways, as i said before Producers are forced into making cheesy tunes, and Djs are forced into playing them. How you ask ?
Well most of the top EDM in aus right now i'd have to say is mos deffinetly cheese, the likes of Nik Fish and Bexta amongst Australia's top 5 djs is a testament to that, anyways the point is if you don't play what the majority of the crowd likes then your gonna go broke and if you don't create what the 'public' is going to like you're not gonna be rolling in the millions, its just what happens ...

Its a paradox. Djing is about appealing to people, however the scene cannot move forward unless people are willing to push the sound in new directions. Sometimes this will be met by failure and I believe this deters many. Many more find it easy to feed off of the latest sound, trance in the late 90s and I guess you could say tech-house now. EDM, however, has changed and evolved in a way no other genre of music has and will continue to do so. New sounds will be introduced, played to death, and then something different will come along. Think Benassi's- Satisfaction sound. What I am trying to say is, I have faith in the genre, as fans will never get bored of the music. Some may be turned off by new directions the genre is heading, but the genre will never grow stale. As for the question are the fans killing the genre, nonsense. If the genre fails (and I guess a fair judge failing is lack of audience emotion or lack of one all together, as EDM is THE ideal live genre) will be the fault of the dj and not the fan. If any DJ tells you any different, remind him what his job is.

Ok, I was outdated; sorry. And THX @ that interview. I disagree with his embargo on playlist idea; It's just a terrible waste of collective effort for us when we have to compile dj's tracklists at TA on our own. Well I have my opinion on the subject, but it's late.

Poor sod, he'll never truly understand the concept of musical composition. He'll just follow what is popular and attempt to imitate it.

Eeheehee.

(Note to self: I am better than Mike Foyle.)
