Lighten up, man. I'm just find the use of the word "amazing" to be over-selling it a little. "Interesting" would have worked, "cool" would have been fine, even "substantial" or "significant" would have been reasonable to use but if "discovering" a track that wasn't previously well known and happens to predate the earliest known similar track by a couple of years is "amazing" then I fear the test for "amazing" is pretty low. |
The problem with using the word amazing, is that someone can describe a situation as amazing,
but might be trying to describe a feeling as amazing.
moral hazard, i back you up on the proper use of the word,
but TO A DJ, finding a rare track that they can put in a mix that makes everyone wonder,
means that he gets an amazing FEELING just from finding the track,
the anticipation of feeling. its hard to understand this, if one doesnt like being
"an underground dj thats pure skill"
and second, it might produce an amazing feeling for those listening to the track.
the situation might not be able to be described as amazing, but the feeling certainly can.
the problem with the english language is dual nature, and this makes
almost every convo confusing, or comes to long explanations as you can see.
...
EDIT: all that being said, i went to review, what was called amazing,
and yes, i still agree with moral hazard, it does not apply here under any circumstances.
(wats amazing is that many talended composer go unoticed becaues what music has turned into: the music industry.
something extremely shocking = amazing to the intelligent, amazing how ignorant people can be.)
