i guess it comes down to how many records you sell

This track is terrible and I'm embarrassed for the people that like it.

And this video is nothing but a blatant advertisement for Reason.

But it sells,

Look at the beatport top10
merely 90% of the tracks there are just 4-5 layers of loops from www.samplemagic.com www.loopmasters.com or www.vengeance-music.com

with 1 sylenth or nexus bassline and 1 lead on top.

You don't need an extensive arsenal of HW, neither do you need to program beats yourself. you just drag and drop the right "vibe" from above sites (or their pirated copys from all major warez/torrent sites)

and there you go. the NU sound just like everybody else.
It's not hard to make "me too" music and ride the wave.

Much harder to do something all the way yourself.
OP is about a guy using a simple tool and having a great hook, taking the piss with drunk clubbing teens, that's why people identify with the song, together with cool laid back "sax" riff (sort of reincarnation of "to ibiza" theme / recentely also used in destination Calabria (if your older than 14 and live in europe you'll make the connection right away) and some older 19xx songs i've forgot the names from right now) makes it just right. Great songwriting, right vibe at the right time.

pretty sure labels pay to to get their tracks on the beatport top 10 I don't think it's always an accurate reflection of what's selling. In other words beatport is heavily gamed. Luckily for them peoples opinions are very easily swayed so if a DJ thinks a track is popular they'll buy it

leave it up to a retard like dj ryan to eat everything shit like this tells him.

first of all, the title is incorrect; its "how to recall patches and project files you've already done in the past in 1 minute".

Yuck.

Are you guys jealous?
