Can't say I'm surprised unfortunately. The part that really gets me down about this is that Dennis Ferrer and Mark Farina can play some stuff that is extremely commercial influenced. Check this out from Farina (everyone already knows about the commercial success of Ferrer so I don't think that I have to explain).
That doesn't seem very far from the commercial world and most of the stuff I've seen from him on youtube have been along similar lines. Pretty worrying stuff if this is stretching the underground boundaries. Imagine if Digweed or Sasha or Cox played one of these parties lol.
Mark Farina has always played stuff like this. This has nothing to do with the commercialization of dance music.
Also, lol @ judging Mark Farina based on "most of the stuff I've seen on youtube".

1) I didn't say it had anything to do with the commercialization of dance music. I said that it wasn't far off from commercial music since it's a beastie boy remix (or at least sounds like one). Any top 40 club would dance to this because of that.
2) What's wrong with seeing what a DJ plays on youtube? I didn't say Farina was limited to that at any point in my post (if that clarifies my position on him). I can't remember the last time there was a set posted by him or even the last time he was in the city. However, that is irrelevant because the point I tried to make was the music he plays is not very underground and (like the vid posted) a lot of it could potentially appeal to a more commercial crowd.

I do not understand this article for a couple reasons. First they say a House DJ got kicked off the bill, for playing underground House. Why would they book a house dj, to play a electronic music event? That makes no sense since House is not electronic music. Secondly, going by the video that was posted of the dj, he doesn't play house, & his music sounds commercial.

You must be really stupid, or not know about music, & clubbing. Do you know what kind of clubs are in Vegas? Calvin Harris isn't underground, he is a cheese electronic music maker, making songs with Rhianna, so Carly Rae Jepsen should not be a stretch.

Who were you talking to Buddy? I did not see you quote anyone for your response. Also you made this thread on the forum for members to see, & reply. Don't get mad, because a member gave you a lesson on clubs, & music, without using dumb pics like you.
You are the troll, that comes up from holes. You posted your dumb comment, & I replied. Do not get mad at me because you do not know about clubs, or music.

Hey moron, you posted the quote in this thread, on Tranceaddict. If you did not want to post it, or people reply to it on Tranceaddict, then you should have not logged into Tranceaddict, & hit the reply button.
Do not get butthurt now, because the point you were trying to make, got deflated. Maybe before you make threads about clubs, & music, you should learn first about them.
