He actually deleted any evidence of it, I've only heard of it by word of mouth.


I've tried to get it on many occasions, lol.

I don't think any high school students can tell the difference/appreciate a good mix between tracks, so perhaps that's why the DJs don't particuarly care? ...Or they just suck really bad.:p

i'm talking more about the high school kids that think they are dj's. not saying you can't dj if you're in high school, but many of the main stream ones have no idea wtf they're doing but it doesn't matter because they are playing all the mtv songs.

99% of breaks are 4 beats per bar... do you even know what a time signature is? :p

hint: a kick drum is not a beat.

Hell, even people past high school and college stil DJ just because it makes them look "cool"

The DJs around here aren't bad, but not impressive, and trance isnt played...so >_>

wow i wish people thought that DJing was cool...I went to one of the science classes today cause they were learning about sound waves, and the teacher knew i was a DJ so he told me i could get out of class for the day to come in, DJ a little, and let him explain how like the sound waves and vinyl and something i dunno i really wasn't paying attention...and yeah no one at my school thinks its cool really...

people who dj because they think it makes them cool should be forced to go deaf.

id even accept the least bit passion about the music but if the dj does it to get laid / public recognition he should be shot in the ear

Well, you shouldn't care, you should be doing it for the music :P

Often those who are truly dedicated to the music are the ones who DJ -and- produce

I got heck of a lot more respect for producers rather than DJs , the music does the work, the DJ just helps

um i never said i DJ because it "looks cool" i DJ because, yeah i love and live the music. I'm just saying it would be the coolest bonus if people at my school thought it was cool.

oreoh, wasnt talking to you bud .. i know youre good :)

i was referring to earlier to the fact that someone stated about highschool djs thinkin they're cool by djing.. was just stating my opinion on the matter , no direct attacks against anyone, i dont think anyone here would admit that they dj for coolness factor and not bend over haha

the politics /sucking factor always kills me though how people get gigs who shoudlnt be there, but those who dont have the gigs are also to blame for not trying hard enough, vicious circle

I dj for the coolness factor :)
