TRANSLATION
Dancevalley, today in Spaarnwoude, makes it clear again, Holland is leading in the dancescene, it's a big bussines. 11000 people have their job there, it started with playing some vinyl somewhere, and now it's a big industry. The Dj's are recycling tracks, and are becoming very famous. Two guys together with Armin van Buuren (number 5 at world top 10) ask him why Holland is so fmous in the world wide dance - industry.
ARMIN:
I have some computer and synthesizers here, they have sounds in it. Bassline, you play it together with some other things. You add some sounds you take some away. /ARMIN
We're walking at the main stage here, it's nice view at the valley. God is a DJ.....
It's empty now, but within some hours it's complety full here.
With only 3 turntables? Only? If you see them spinning: they're using 3 turntables at the same time.
They're doctors of the vinyl.
They're using 3 turntables for 20000 people? Yes, less instruments
The industry is very big, a lot of money is earned. The earnings of the Dj's are over 10000 dollar and the festivals are very expensive. A ticket is almost 50 euro plus your drinks. A lot of money is paid and a lot is earned.
Holland has many talent. A lot of proffesional clubs. The goverment finds it important festivals are held. You don't see that in foreign countrys
ARMIN:
Foreign countries are watching holland, with dance music. Not for him but Tiesto Ferry and Johan too. I did three tours in Australie in Melbourne for almost 10000 people. And in Japan, i'm doing a tour in asia in November. /ARMIN
(INTERVIEW WITH AN ENGLISH GUY)
You're hearing for years the hype is over. But it isn't people are going to festivals. DJ's are a export product. The ministry of economic has financed a party as export product in Australie.
ARMIN:
The truc is the speed of current track bringing over in the next track. i'm using toneregulation for that/ARMIN
Dutch DJ's are feeling what the people want. Foreign DJ"s too, but the dutch have a nice trackchoice.
ARMIN:
The mainstage, a dream of a DJ. The highest you can get for a DJ!/ARMIN
Do you have to be musical? or do you have to have any know about computers?
ARMIN:
It have been played by computers. I'm in the bussines for 10 years, and i can't read any musical note but i know how it works on the dancefloor. I have seen people from the conservatory go very wrong in the dancescene.
ENGLISH
On the sources off the dance music is ascend/go up/mount in the music. The dance music is the substitute of the church or the soccerclub.
