Yeah... that's true.... Oh well....

I can't even criticise the monkey... I've never touched DJ equipment in my entire life...

Cobalt excellent rebutals! I agree 100 % in your positions.Just because I am not a world famous Dj does that make my understanding of music worthless? I think not. I think that many TA's on this site actualy have a much higher level of understanding of EDM that those who many admire as the worlds best.

Its just funny when anyone gives a bit of criticism to a "popular" DJ that you begin to offend those who also listen to his music. I would rather be a a "music geek" than some dumba$$ who listens to sh!t cuz everyone is telling him to listen to it. this is a music forum right?
Without criticism the music and the djs could not have the feedback needed to improved over time. I am serious about the music, as are alot of people on this forum, so to call someone a "geek" because they are passionate about EDM just indicates ones level of naivety with EDM or specifically their age.
Its unfortunate but good djs do end up becoming sh!tty over time.It Darwins theory of a DJ. Yes they were good and yes they did make contriubutions but as a avid listener I am not at club to hand out awards. "Death" of a DJ just opens the doors for new djs to take charge but more importantly increases sales for clubs and labels to promote the best "new " dj. this is why moving forward "popluarity" of dj will have to change.

In reguards to me not being a superstar Dj.....

the whole mix mag #1 thing is BULLSHIT. Seriously . It just a ploy by club owners and labels to create some type of excitement or sales for "the world # 1 dj". Who the f%ck is in charge of voting. Its not even done properly. How do you know its not fixed?? It should be called the world most popular DJ according to the few thousand DJ Mag subcribers,club owners, and DJ fans went to vote for him on Mix Mag's website. And the poor thing about it is that people keep using last years results as a reference for the following year. but hey it just like the "democracy" we have in america vote for either Democratic or Republican ( mirage of democracy). I mean if one was truely the world best than the vote tally should be in the millions not 20,000 ( as posted by mix mag). and how about all those "non geek" clubbers do you think actually vote for the worlds best DJ? Pleaze!! They dont even vote for there freakin president..hhehe.. but seriously. to indicate a DJ is supreme because of some foolish chart is idiot. And becuase a Dj makes a alot of $$ and has a huge follwoing does that make the music he plays good?? You are falling prey to what the music industry wants you to beleive. And I am sorry you havento rreached the level of maturity and wisdom as otehr TA have on this site.
Its just so funny to hear people who criticize those who listen to hip hop becuase they are trying to create some type of bad ass image or when people say shit about britteny spears showing her tits and appeals to people to listen to her music . But this whole # 1,#2, #3 this is just another creation from crass tasteless society. Its just another method created by the music industry , specifically designed for EDM to make money.
I guess youll change your mind or your opinions when the charts tell you huh??

Oh by the way I am not Paul Van Dyk so anything I said is competely wrong. Gezzz....


Yeah... I've done stats in my uni course, U can't technically rank the order of the DJs, unless the sample of people u've taken as voters represent the entire EDM community. However, tehy only represent that portion which has heard or has read DJ MAG.

Let's not take the whole #1 thing too seriously

But I think that the EDM genre suffers because of the lack of status many of the top exponents of our scene have in comparison to other music types. I reckon that Tiesto could walk down the main street in Brisbane and people wouldn't recognise him, try and say that for Enimem, or Cold Play, or Kellis. The scene needs icons, and heroes, and popular stars. This is what gets people hooked and attracted, and this filters down and helps all DJs right down to the bottom.


Backs up the other the other thread i started "Trance and Techno are gay and repetitive" (take it easy... it's just a name for my thread).

Look... If there's one thihng I've learnt that will keep Trance on the scene for the right amount of time:

Commercialism is fame/fortune/popularity
UNderground is rebirth/change/growth

WE HAVE to keep a ballance here... WE shouldn't sell out, especially with Trance about to by heard by 2.2billion people at the olympics
