A friend and I were discussing this topic awile back. It was more about his spinning style though, he doesn't procuce.
I told him that his style changed ever since he got his residency at this lame mainstream trying to go "rave" club. The place is utter shit, and the people who go know nothing about EDM and just want to get shitfaced.
He used to spin this nice funky/nu-skool style of breaks which I was very fond of. You could tell he really had talent and loved what he was doing.
Recently getting his residency, he's moved to cheesy breaks, mostly mainstream tracks or EDM classics sampled into some shit remix. Now don't get me wrong, it's understandble seeing as how he wants to get paid, he needs to please the crowd. The crowd does go off, they worship him. But I told him that he's losing his original fanbase, the people who liked him for being so original.
Anyways, he gave me a mix a few nights ago and I was totally blown away like how I was when I first started listening to him. He still has his style, he said he's just "saving it for when the time permits."
What I don't get is that he doesn't play everynight like that for every crowd who goes to see him. Why waste the talent you have trying to please everyone instead of sticking to your true fans and pleasing them, the ones who care about you the most.
I believe one dedicated fan is worth more than ten random listeners .
