I disagree guys. Seems pretty consistent with some other stuff I've seen him post. Ryan can write surprisingly well when he tries. If only the same could be said for his DJing...lawl.

So let's clarify because i think i've fooled myself, you've had a 5 year residence dancing to great djs in Atlanta, can we see any output of that?
Well, it seems like this thread is taking off. Which is exactly how I had imagined it. So, allow me to put into perspective a couple of things for you. I've only been in Atlanta since 2009. Prior to that I lived in Florida, and prior to that I lived in the Midwest. So, your inferring that the highlights that I've referenced in above posts are somehow related to my experiences as a dj here in Atlanta are not at all accurate. In fact I can say that I've had very limited experiences as a dj here in Atlanta. I thought that I've also made it abundantly clear that my ambitions about being a dj here in Atlanta have been somewhat eased due to me feeling like a "kid in a candy store" having the opportunity to hear all my favorite dj's as often as I'm able to.

I really wanted the opportunity, in an open forum to provide you all with answers to the questions you seek. I believe there are misconceptions that ruin not only my reputation but my overall standing within the EDM community. And as this thread indicates, I don't believe there to be any reason for this to occur. For me its like calling a US Solider or their spouse or other family member unpatriotic. And I think we all know how well they support someone serving. Granted, being a Plur Solider is a far-cry from putting one's self in harms way but I think the overall metaphor is there even if its just a little.

a) I don't recall anyone seeking any answers from you regarding anything, other that asking why you feel the need to act like such a try-hard.
b) In order for a reputation and standing to be ruined, you have to possess one in the first place. Yours seems to be entirely self-manufactured, which means it only exists in your ego-driven head.

I believe you about your DJing career (while maintaining the slight amount of skepticism that is healthy in any matter). The one DJ set I have heard of yours was OK. It wasn't amazing but truthfully, it was as good as most live sets by any headliner (which isn't really saying much). Just be careful of your persona as it tends to get a strong reaction.

I'll accept these as forms of a questions. To answer your first point. My only interactions on TranceAddict have been that of posting relative information in their corresponding locations. Occasionally I'll post a new mix in the DJ Promotions area but that's the extent of my "try hard" mentality you suggest I have.
Secondly, this thread and your posts indicates a certain amount of animosity or hatred towards me and/or the things I post, my past as a dj and how I reprsent myself. It is my belief that in order for your second statement to be accurate I would need to be claiming that I'm a SuperStar DJ or Famous or a highly recognized DJ and I don't claim any of those things.

you claimed to be a pro though. a "pro dj" that doesn't play out and would rather dance and can't grasp the basics of the craft. sounds legit 110%.

That's nice. I can accept that the moon is made of camembert; doesn't make it so, and my "accepting it" as fact would lead most to believe that I'm both ego-driven and delusional.
