As form the topic, as a wise young DJ of international acclaim once told me, the music you produce becomes your international business card for being able to sell yourself (and as consequence get good DJing gigs). It's just the way things are now, a means to an end.
The same person stressed that producing for DJs should not be looked at as "how am I gonna make something decent with my name on it so I can get more gigs" but "what kind of lasting contributions am I going to make to dance music beyond a few sets I played?"
Something to that effect anyway, and I like to think about it in that way... |
I think that's a nice way of looking at it - but it still effectively says "Tough shit, you have to produce now too even if you don't want to, aren't good at it, and are a reasonably talented DJ."
That may be life, I still don't have to like it.
