| Originally posted by boi85 I do like my new tunes. but a couple of older tunes in a long set are always appreciated. |
why?
cause he is so 'underground' or cause he is so 'manipilative with his controls'
pfft.
cause you have '0 day' or 'unreleased new ch00ns'
pfft.
um... we were talking bout old tunes buddy/
who cares.
3-1.
I'm not getting into a Hawtin debate today.
moral of the story...
Sasha will always experiment and play what is appropriate for the context.
one thing is certain though... he is awesome.
end of story.

It has nothing to do with him being underground or maipulative with his controls as you put it. It's about playing tunes that make people dance regardless of when they were released. DJs now have 25 years of dance music practically at their fingertips. He's a fucking genius to take advantage of that fact.

the fact that he can handle final scratch better than anyone else on the planet helps
Hawtin also hams it up and does the unexpected.I can remember him dropping a full blown disco track in the middle of a very bleepy set.The club went nuts.(it wasnt music noobs either, the club was very selective about who they let in.)
ive never heard of minimalistic prog...although i have heard of minimal being layered with prog
its retarded.. get it through ur heads!

if you think that is the only aspect of minimal you are wrong.
youre opinion on minimal is what those who listen to mainstream music tend to think of edm as a whole.
music doesnt always need a huge hooking baselin or addictive synths to get people grooving.
if you still cant get into it try some k

and minimal
Sadly, "electro" is the new "progressive"; a trendy prefix describing a general trend of production, which has achieved critical mass. The term is going to be with us as long as progressive has (or was), and will steer major genre movements for years to come.
Seeing this drives me nuts, because I can't stand the distorted retro synths and minimal production values. All across the board I see genres infected with the electro bug losing their traditional feeling and flavor, replaced with some hollow and soulless shell of saw waves and bleeps.
Just tragic. Clearly it appeals to others, but I don't understand it, and it's damn hard to find music I like in this mess. I suppose it's a natural progression from the epic mood of the 90s, though.
genres are retarded... music is music, enjoy it. there will be things you dont like but others love and vice versa... i'll listen to 80s disco if its got a nice groove to it. I dont like to base tracks on what genre they have but what it does to me... sounds good? i'll listen and play.

I have question nacho libre's taste at times as well. I think it was the, "what known dj is playing", "the big names are not playing that track" comments, but he's still good peeps and is entitled to his say. I sometimes try to pass on tunes or let him know about tunes that he would enjoy or be interested in. Yes, he is difficult sometimes. 
how many here are judging solely on what they hear at home?
how many here have been to a minimal night at a club?
just curious.
