but you are playing to masses as you defined a sellout??correct

Richie Hawtin PLays to the masses..

Its not a matter of PLaying to a lot of peoPLe, its a matter of PLaying the music you love. It is obvious when DJ's are PLaying the stuff they really dig..to when they are PLaying stuff that is ok..but they know it will werk.
Look at Master Kaos...he likes hardtrance...so he has PLayed it for years now...but because he has got a strong fanbase it has allowed him to PLay a lot more freely...he chucks in breaks, drum and bass...techno...whatever he likes..his fans like him and his ears....not just the rekkids he is PLaying.

Two choices:

1. Be a sellout and get lots of cash
2. Don't be a sellout and stay poor

Which one will you choose? I know which one I'll choose...

I dont think Matt & Marcella would be coming to only play Melgurn, i'd say a Sydney gig is already signed up.

You can still play what you like if you have a real job to support your hobby.

People like vocals, and alot of them.

I don't think they like their imagination being controlled by synths or melodies but rather by words.

When i was in school i used to broadcast trance through-out the school, like they had these speakers everywhere and at lunch times i would be pumping trance , next thing i know is that a swarm of people are telling me turn off the trance shit and put stuff that had vocals... they said it repeats too much, and it's cheap... Though i didn't listen to them, i locked the door and pumped out even harder stuff, just another sense of how RnB and some of the other crap has had success and easily shows the ignorance of some people... ah well.

speaking of brands in sydney.

Look at the most succesful nights/events.

Sublime, Fuzzy, Plastic, Utopia, Transmission, Beatdivision (not beatdivision its self but the parties it puts on e.g. Gods Kitchen, Slinky, Two Tribes etc..)

Why are these so popular? Because they are seen as the place to go! Why? because they have built up their name so much to the point were people see a fuzzy party and go "man its a fuzzy party, lets go" they have nfi who is playing tho.

Also how many people do you speak to who are new to the scene or not even in the scene and they will ask "do you go to sublime?" or "do you go to utopia etc..." People who just wanna go out for a night will go to subbies because thats the first thing that pops into their mind.

The same goes for Gods kitchen, gatecrasher etc.. its all people know who are not into the scene fully.

It cost about $50,000 just to use the Gods Kitchen logo at a party like two tribes etc.. and i suppose its worth it for promoters.

So after all that crapping on Its all about BRAND recognition!

So yea if we could use the GK name some how at gas, space etc.. on a regular basis, u would probably get big crowds!
