It's pretty amazing the power hate has, whether unified within it or against it, to bring people together towards a common goal.
A lot of positive to come out of this - look how it's reminded everyone of what's really important, and why this scene is so special and valuable to us to begin with. |

That's true I suppose. I think what's disturbing is ppl supporting his views? He apologized but it didn't seem fully genuine and he's postioning gig cancellations as his own doing when Cream fields said they took him off the bill as well as other organizers. It's pretty intense stuff |

This is the power/pitfall of social media - not only is this guy an idiot but he is especially stupid for putting it up on his personal facebook as a public status. I'm sure, at the time, he thought he was being insightful. I'm more curious as to what was the trigger for it all...also wonder if something was lost in translation to make it sound even worse. |

I also wonder if, in time, the dance music community will be as open to forgive him as they are to condemn him. A truly open minded community would. |

people can't have opinions if they are not politically correct I guess. Apparantly he never learned the history of dance music though
I don't like him or his music so I hope he never resurfaces lol. The artists supporting him should go down with him too |

That's the problem with Social Media, It is not the place for people to post there personal view on things, You can always expect consequences in the end.
If he is to come back into the scene, He's going to have to change the name. Cause right now, When someone mentions Ten Walls, They will just be reminded of the negativity surrounding it. |

To me that feels a bit different. For some reason disrespecting women and abusing them isn't as absurd as voicing opinions on other races or the gay community. Like WTF ?! Diplo made some crazy remarks over a copyright claim and nothing went down with that |
