BUMP ------------------ SUPERHIGHMAY AOL: Highmay9 Napster: Jayme

I'm sorry but I must claim ignorance: WHO IS JANA?? ------------------ SUPERHIGHMAY AOL: Highmay9 Napster: Jayme

its the environment thats created at the club...remember everything is in excess inside a nightclub: music is blasted, women and men show off their bodies, and people get drunk and high...remember, sexual feeling entails pleasing all 5 senses, and nightclubs do that very well...and remember its not just the men that get caught up in it and act like dogs...women get caught up in it as well... some people, though, have more of an awareness of what the environment of a nightclub entails...you find those people, and you find the people with good heads on their shoulders. good luck exploring... ------------------ SUPERHIGHMAY AOL: Highmay9 Napster: Jayme

slow down there killa...Scot Project songs might all sound the same, but yet theyre unique in their own way...back to earth sounds different from open sesame...the production is the same but the environment he creates with those songs are different...he has a very gifted ear..he knows what is appealing to a crowd...so therefore, i'd love to hear him DJ one night... ------------------ SUPERHIGHMAY AOL: Highmay9 Napster: Jayme

We need to give out a couple of facts: 1. There is a financial market in the world for dance music. 2. People must respect an artist for experimenting and stretch out their artistic muscles. I think that a fusion of product and thought is necessary in order to learn what NOT to do and who NOT to respect. There is always someone who "sells out" because their main motivation is money. It's a level very easily attainable. It's like rappers throwing lyrics out on a record about guns and violence because every other rapper has success doing it. Another example is taking a classic and remaking it under your name WHILE NOT DOING JUSTICE TO ITS ORIGINAL. Precedents have been raised, though. It's not like every song nowadays sounds as good or worse as any song from two years ago. Good Producers and DJs have grown from two years ago. For example, there has always been a unity of opera and dance, but it took Paul Masterson (aka Yomanda) to fuse the two together successfully to create a beautiful song, IMO and in the opinions of a lot of people. Artists are constantly experimenting with dance and having it accepted by everyone. Look at that song by Bjorn Svin, Mand Over Board. Now there are people who DON'T understand about honoring the artistic license and seeing only greed in what they pursue. Rob, and to everyone on the board, people like that are always going to be here. And it's not in just this scene, it's in any scene you can think of. People are always going to "jump on the bandwagon" and come out with low-quality music that will never be respected by people who do understand what is and isn't quality music. I think we, as people who love dance music and understand the club scene, should honor the scene and the music as we do now. When club life isn't individually apart of us anymore, we have to, at least, make sure that we left the scene better than when we entered it. It's the only way to stay original. ------------------ SUPERHIGHMAY AOL: Highmay9 Napster: Jayme

HMMMMM...interesting thought. Let me see if what I contemplated helps: Think of Alex Rodriguez and Tiger Woods. They might make a lot of money through their respective sports, but let's not forgot the million dollar contracts they have with Nike, or the deal Tiger has with Buick, or the deals that ARod has with his personal PR staff, a private jet company, and Giorgio Armani. What they have are multiple streams of revenue. They just started out with making money from their employers, then added on complimentary salaries afterwards. See the way they're marketing themselves? They have created relationships with reputable companies that send out a certain image, one that Tiger and ARod fit. Now, people are finding that the qualities that embody "the nightclub"--say, beautiful people, beautiful music, or the club itself-- appeal to the masses. In this case, it seems inevitable that, in due time, a quality DJ or nightclub would be massively marketed, like all those ads for John Digweed's new mix cd that you see on virtually every block in Manhattan, or how KTU holds functions at Exit. The formers are merely finding other ways to make money and promote themselves to their select market, whether it be the whole world, or the minority of people who love Diggie's style. Is this commercialization bad, you ask? IMO, I don't think so. This is part of the evolution of the club scene. In the world of economics, people are making more money now than 5 years ago, so people can't argue the fact that you have to pay $30 for door at the Tunnel or $35 at Exit or Twilo because a) the people have the money, and rent and general overhead is higher, so they must find a way to cover it. Right? The scene has evolved to beautiful venues such as the renovation of SF or Exit about half a year ago, and the fusion of different musical genres to create a song like Spente Le Stelle, or what BT does. Then again, the scene now features MP3 DJs, AOL promoters, The WWF, unneccessated drama, radio stations and porn companies hosting events, and misinformation. Those, I think, should be considered byproducts that will go by the wayside in due time. Now has it lost its underground roots? I don't know. I still see a love for underground venues such as Vinyl, or Level 1 at Sound Factory on Saturdays. The RIGHT people know about it, and keep those vibes alive. If you want to consider that exclusive, I would have to agree that it's a smoke screen against the outside world. In the end, the nightclubs that do it right still hold the tough door policy, still promote to, and get, the crowd they are looking for, and still know that, without a damn good DJ, your club isn't making a dime. Everything else is peripheral for the clubs to make money. You can't really blame them, they're trying to be as successful as they can. ------------------ SUPERHIGHMAY AOL: Highmay9 Napster: Jayme

This depends on if Jonathan V. is Johnny Vicious. Personally, I don't think so. It doesn't make sense that Vicious would deliberatly change his name and share one room with 3 other DJs. In all liklihood, this is just another DJ. ------------------ SUPERHIGHMAY AOL: Highmay9 Napster: Jayme

I'm sorry but I still think French Kiss is his craziest song. He definitly did justice to the original song by Lil Louis. It's definitly a classic-in-waiting, at least in my ear. ------------------ SUPERHIGHMAY AOL: Highmay9 Napster: Jayme

Ok well I emailed Twilo AND Overdose a couple of weeks ago and I didn't get an answer from either of them. So maybe if enough people email both of them, me might get the ball rolling with something. ------------------ SUPERHIGHMAY AOL: Highmay9 Napster: Jayme

uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhmmmmmm...you might want to try maybe a cruise around Manhattan Island. Dinner at Peter Lugars. But I wouldn't want to entirely count out clubs. When I turn 21, I hope to do the hottest upscale club there is (that I've never been to) and dress up and have a great time. What do you think? ------------------ SUPERHIGHMAY AOL: Highmay9 Napster: Jayme

Well this is what I know about it: Gatecrasher is a nightclub somewhere in the UK, and they have an impressive lineup of world class DJs, much what like Twilo can bring forth. What they have done now is not really go on tour, but more like franchised out, to nightspots all over the world. So they have monthly residencies at Limelight, Transit in Philly, Stereo (I think) in Montreal, and so on. You can look up more about them at www.gatecrasher.com . They haven't updated their site in a while, but it will give you an idea about where they spin and who their DJs are. Hope this helps out, Grand Wizard. ------------------ SUPERHIGHMAY AOL: Highmay9 Napster: Jayme

Emma Shapplin, especially when she has a dance beat behind her. Nah, I'm j/k. Uhm, I don't know anything about Opera but I'd love to get into it, it looks really cool. If someone can email me with info about it, it's much appreciated, thanks!!! ------------------ SUPERHIGHMAY AOL: Highmay9 Napster: Jayme

three guarantees in life: death, taxes, and roxanne replying on an "I hate Exit" thread. I betcha if i do a search like a good 60% of your posts are defending exit. anyway...i went on friday and not only was it not packed, but the quality of people there was totally lowlife. i walked around the secret room and the second and third level was tagged up .. like people doing graffitti on it...as i saw that i asked myself "where has this club gone to?" it used to be such a beautiful venue and the money hungriness of management has cheapened it to a 30 dollar whore. I hardly saw a goodlooking girl there. i said forget it if i hated it and went over to SF. totally different...beautiful women and venue, though i had to sacrifice the music, but its fine... anyway my point is Exit has turned to carbon. and exit will go down eventually just like carbon did. ------------------ "ID, Please."
