Does any one else notice fake DJ performances going around?
I hate to admit this but I feel the need to bring this to attention.
This time it was Danny Howells faking a 6 hour set at Avaland last Sat.
I know it sounds harsh and I will probably be getting hate mails, disbelief and replies to this etc.
Let it be known that this is based on close observations, I have been DJing for 4 years and I can tell what's going on.
Howells pretending to spin to a pre-recorded session:
I watched closely for at at least ½ hour and then got to go back stage where it was brutally obvious. (security loostened up after 3 am)
About 20 records were stashed in a plastic $5 storage box from Home Depot. (that's how I would bring my records from the UK) :lol
One CDJ was on constant loop, the other was on CUE.
He never swapped CDs and barely ever touched records.
But once in a while he’d slap a record on only the right turn table but never put the needle down, pretend to cue it up and beat match in approx. 3 seconds. (wow!) :shock
He’d pretend to fade that record in 2 minutes later, without any tempo adjustments. –amazing!
On top of that he’d punch buttons, slide faders and twist knobs irrelevant to what what’s going on sonically.
And here’s my favorite: the 360 degree jog wheel spin on the CDJ. He’d smack that thing so hard, I don’t need to tell you guys what that sounds like! :lol
Also there’s no connection between the tracks and Howells, it seems like he’s heard them a million times and couldn’t care less. Doesn't a DJ absolutely love every track he plays? It's this extra juice that the listener can feel, the difference between a mix CD and a live set!
Every fade lasts 20 seconds and sounds exactly the same. -monotoneous
If you’re a DJ and you watch and listen closely over 3-4 changeovers you can tell if somebody is faking it.
Is this going on at Avaland in LA or around the globe?
I just want the DJs out there to confirm for themselves and then decide weather all this is OK or not. I myself don't like to be fooled.
If you had a great time at Avaland as did I then it's cool. But I do believe that for $25 cover we deserve a real LIVE DJ set, especially from guys that we know can pull it off!
:cry :cry :cry :cry :x |
