Um you are in California, minority is the majority now hispanics including mexicans, mexican-americans etc. You should know EDM is world wide, from South America to Middle-east. BTW Mexico City has a huge following for EDM, even when it died down here in the states it was and still is thriving. Ignorance reigns. See my hot ass wife in my sig, yeah she is Mexican.. era Mexican-America (full blood, born here). There I said it. :) |
Where's the *LIKE* button? :D
Oh and not everyone that looks Mexican is Mexican. |

I never questioned the scene in Mexico, I'm very aware of the fact that EDM is big in MEXICO. Hence all the different festivals and parties (especially Mexico city). I shouldn't of stated it as Mexicans, but more so essays and fake essays? And please don't run wild with me saying essays. If you have a better word for it then let me know ;) But You know the ones I'm talking about, walking around with shirts on that say, "Looking to get into Ghetto girls" and things of that nature. Kind of just made me think and shake my head.
I was more referring to all the dirty club rats that come from these ty ing under 21 clubs like the ones in Pomona and the ones that are held at Gotham. Far from raciest just speaking the truth :(
System-7 as your wife.... I could say a funny line, but well that won't solve anything. Congratulations on the pick up though? |

It's one thing that surprised me when I first moved out here a year ago, but I'm used to it now: There are simply a lot of people of Mexican descent in LA. A lot of them are 2nd and 3rd generation because California's history has been closely tied with Mexico's for a long time.
So it's not that the Mexican-American kids all flock to EDM events when other people don't, it's just that most people in the LA area these days have some Mexican or Central American blood in them. |

You can tell me in person, and you can catch me at Circus most times (Ill even buy you a drink). Check yourself before you wreck yourself with the derogatory comments. I respect all types of people, and I hold my reservations about the bad apples that each group has. I just don't go blasting away, cause well that won't solve anything.

I don't go to Circus or any clubs for that matter. That I went to Beyond is a miracle, but maybe I'll take you up on a drink. It's funny though because 2 of the guys that I went with are from Mexican Heritage (half and half) and said the same the exact same thing I did. So :conf:
And why did you bring up your wife's looks to begin with? Were you wanting me to say something? Kind of seemed..... welllll ummmmmm irrelevant? |

For the record I have been raving in LA for 5 years or so now and I even made the observation that there was a large amount of Mexican - Americans there. More so than I have ever seen. Probably 60-70%? NOT NECESSARILY A BAD THING. But I honestly felt really out of place.
BUT as for Richie Hawtin...he was the only reason I dropped the cash to go to Beyond. Man was it worth all 80 dollars. He made the event worth it itself. He banged it out with some of the darkest minimal I have ever heard. He played loud and heavy..probably a lot of unreleased tracks because I couldn't ID a damn thing. He really brought it and I was thoroughly impressed. He is the epitome of DJ perfection.
My brain. Richie's music. Epic. |

contrasts, drop it bro. I only brought that up to disprove your ignorant comment. Seems you may have a problem with diversity.
Why did you feel outta place?

All the people noticing us "Mexicans" at raves and parties is similar to what has been happening in California politics the last few years, we are being noticed. We eventually will become the majority in CA, which I have mixed feelings on.
I'd have hi hopes for us if most of us progressed, but the reality is that we are not progressing as a whole. It makes me sick when I start to look into the statistics of our footprint in American education...
