How could you ever agree with ory really? His opinion always changes for the current trendy argument.

He is quite simply a troll.

hahah, its funny reading these posts here, well yeah gotta agree with Mike in everything he said, i think the main reasons in these forums is that alot have different tastes in trance, and some immuture (ory)cant keep thier litle mouth shut so they wine and brag about what other people like. thier are fucking idiots and cant respect other peoples choises.

i'd love to hear your productions.

I really enjoy the Whiteroom remix of Airwaves "Save Me". Heard it before the original and I think it's better. I know people think I should be shot for this, but thats just how it is. I've never been much into Leama & Moor, though I do like some of their remixes.

fuck you assholes


Posted by colombian raver on Jul-26-2005 06:48:

I like the Leama & Moor remix of Getting Away, and I also love Whiteroom - Someday. And no I don't like it because it's popular and it was shoved in my face by Armin, I couldn't care less.

Wrap your minds around this one because its a real brain teaser.

I just like the songs.

Dear Ory,

You're shit.

x


tbh though i agree with most of the other anti-Moors in this thread with regards to his music. i dislike his recent stuff and find it to be uncreative and pretty devoid of any appealing musical essence. however its existance doesn't bother me in the slightest; the only time i'm forced to listen to that style is during the early stages of certain clubnights, where it serves as mere warm-up fodder. it doesn't bother me that others like it either and i certainly wouldn't lump its listeners in the same category as casual part-time pop-music listeners. to be fair they must have done atleast some degree of 'digging' to get to this level and it it suits them, let it be.

actually Ory got a point. if you look at the todays "uprising" trance stars that are discovered on ASOT they all seem to follow the same pattern.
They are all young guys sitting with a downloaded (well most of) version of Reason and producing tracks in their bedrooms. Their main aim is to get on ASOT and get whored there. That is still OK for some reason. But then when the artist becomes popular among the ASOT whores he suddenly have to start DJing. For example Envio, Filo & Peri etc.
Just because you can make a good production doesnt automaticly make you a good dj. And then the clubowners book these "uprising" stars and prints largely on the label "ENVIO". Though no one have ever heard Envio dj before they rate him high as hell just because he had one tune on ASOT which was popular.
This is really really cheap.

Note Envio is just an example. There are loads of other producers which did the same.

i wouldn't say it was the best state of affairs. it's all true, but i'm not sure exactly what the 'point' is though, or how it ties in with the argument. i'm pretty sure 'armin-trance' isn't the only field of music in which DJs get bookings based on the strength of their productions... people will be more attracted to a familiar name, clubs will get more through the door, simple economics really. but i think its naive to assume all producers like Moor are pushing out tunes purely for the sake of making it big on the dj circuit, even if the trend might suggest that.

anyone who thinks dj-ing takes skill is a total retard.

usually its the producers who are most experimental and unique when it comes to djing, becasue they know about effects, structures, and loads of other technical shit that ur average dj does not. if u go listen to like mikey mike or Az's mixes in the ameteur dj forum they are shit. just one track then the next waiting till the very last minute to bring the next track in. I have been producing longer than i have been djing, i have only been djing for 2 or 3 years. but i make a point of being different when it comes to djing. using loops, acapellas, fx, mixing tracks in keys which complement each other ( i take the time to update my database with the key of each track i have at a certain tempo... im sure many djs do this, but alot do not. at the end of the day mate, if you think that there is more to djing than producing then you have no idea. producers get booked because clubbers these days like to see the guys who actually make the music, not just some idiot who gets paid to play other peoples. sure there are probably producers who learn to dj in a week and then get booked but who do u see complaining (apart from you?) people go see them because they like the music they MAKE. it pisses me off so much when "real djs" bitch and moan about "producer djs" just because they tend to get more gigs and better gigs than those "real djs"... let me tell u something mate... the djs who dont do anything apart from play other peoples music are the ones you should be moaning at, not us.

When I play at gigs with other djs, it is almost always the producer djs who impress me most, alot of exclusive tracks, lots of clever mixing and key mixing, lots of live mashups, etc etc etc... the only thing that they often cant do (i cant do it to save my life) is scratching. But whenever a dj scratches in a club it sounds wank if you ask me. the only person ive seen who can make it sound good is zabiela, who to be honest is in a different leauge to any of us altogether.

on the other hand u have u guys who dont produce and just think u are the shit for playing other peoples music. if you think you deserve to get booked all round the world to do so, but the people who actually make the music dont deserve to, then you need to go sort your head out. if you dont wana see the producer djs dont go see them, until they get pretty big they dont make much money from gigs, ive done plenty of free gigs in the past simply because i fucking love doing it. its an amazing experience which those who are lucky enough to get the chance to do should be thankful for. anyone who does it for the money lost their passion for music a long long time ago. and the amount that you talk about money and how its not fair that we get paid for this and that makes me think that maybe you lost it a long time ago to, and that maybe you are jealous that we have something that you do not.

(this is me sticking up for my beliefs again, don't hate me.. we all have different views and perspectives on things, that was mine coming from a producer who IS being booked primarily for my productions, but who is also putting a fuck load of effort into my djing and who doesnt appriciate people like you assuming that we are half assed and money hungry and that that is the only reason we do it)

later i will post a new demo and you can judge for urself whether or not "producer djs" are really that shit.

thankyou.

at last a sensible reply that comes from experience instead of just assumption and generalisation.

yeah oops! im just trying to make a point. fed up of watching what i say in this forum, from now on i speak my mind.

excellent post mike i agree full heartly with you. i think the whole dj culture will soon die as in people no longer will be prepared to pay 50 quid for the likes of talentless wasters like judge jules who have made a living from playing other peoples music.

you can already see the rise of the producer dj everywhere, for example one of my friends john o'callaghan starting to make is name on the dj circuit after years of hard work getting exposure for his producing, but he djs because as you said people wanna go see the person who actually made the music they enjoy so much which would be completely understandable in any other genre.
imagine someone who was a U2 fan for years paying to go to a gig of someone who was just playing U2 songs rather than seen U2 themselves.

even gabrial & dresden said recently in an interview that they see the whole dj performance becoming more like a live performance where producers can showcase there music which is the way it should be.

i reckon when you finally get the transistion over to producer dj performances happen trance may start to get appreciated more as an actual credible scene.

dont get me wrong i still think traditional djs have a role to play but to say a dj who just spins other peoples records should get gigs ahead of an actually talented producers is fucking crazy to say the least.

and as far as money is concerned dont ya think if we thought about that we'd be all out making rap and dj sammy dance music? we do it because we feel we have something to offer to people around the world in the form of music that we make straight from the heart.

p.s. best of luck in the future mike you've had some really great productions recently
