Hey... I came across this article on Home of Music. Relates to the future of DJing. http://www.homeofchat.com/vB/showthread.php?t=34394
Now that I've seen your opinions, I will tell you mine. I think that with DJs using more computers, it will alienate them just enough from the listeners to allow for producers to perhaps step out into the light a little more. Thats my opinion, no gloom and doom, just a little shift in the way the music is viewed, like knowing the director of a movie as well as the actors. I think it will be positive for the creative aspect of the music... it will also, I think, allow DJs to further develop their own style as they will be able to essentially remix live. And in the future when vinyl is spun, it will be a novelty and thus more special. So I think it works for everybody. I'll never forget vinyl though, I'll be spinnin it when I'm 90. lol |

Does anyone think that with more and more DJ's switching over to computers; that our music and the art of DJ'ing will lose what little creedence it currently possesses in the music culture, as more mainstream people come to think of elctronic music as simply an "artificial" and "computer" form of music instead of one created and played from the heart? It's as if a solid medium, such as vinyl, ground the music. What do you think? |
the mainstream doesn't know anything about edm to begin with... all they know is it's called 'techno' and most of them don't like it... and that's the way i like it. |

First I don't care what mainstream people think of EDM. I prefer it and that's the bottom line.
Here in Texas mainstream is hip-hop and pop music. I could care less what those folks think of EDM...what do they know.
As stated in a previous thread over Sasha giving up on vinyl. This trend appears to be the way in which a lot of people are moving to and there's no stopping it. Of course some will rise and take stands but it seems to inevitable. I personally prefer someone djing live on vinyl. I would probably be hesistant before seeing someone spinning on a computer, but nevertheless we can't be close minded. |

no they arn't you kidder.:toothless
thats actually a good point. There really isn't even a label to what "we" listen to anyway. Because a good amount of stuff isnt even danceable/made for clubs... EM i guess |
