sialater18 Posted April 8 Report Share Posted April 8 Hey Vic you are being so harsh! no offense or anything, I can appreciate your sense of humor but...How can you say you are going to stand outside to wait in line for Darude? Who is so, like, mainstream...old news... (not that I have anything against that)and then you go and diss Pete? Seems like you have some sort of personal vendetta against him! Give the dude a chance...Just because you may not personally like what he spins does not mean that you can't give him some respect for what he does? And anyway, the Djs whose music you like, PvD, D:Fuse, Tiesto - these are all people who have spun or regularly spin at Glow. how can you claim to like their genre of music - or their type of trance - and not like the resident's "fairy" trance - when all four DJs music choice falls into teh same category? I don't get it...And I'm not trying to be a bitch, just please explain to me where you are coming from! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't believe how amazing his set was. He spun for a little over 6 hours. I hope he gets a residency in NYC again soon.Man, what am I talking about, I'm broke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kuro Posted April 9 Report Share Posted April 9 Fuck all that. If it ain't techno it ain't shit (we need at least one techno snob around hear and Scratch is too level-headed, open minded and intelligent for that, but I'm not). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ooh yeah!?!?!well then I'll take it up a notch, fuck progressive, fuck trance, fuck breaks, fuck techno, from now on only one genre will prevail: industrial tex-mex anyway, well we are all biased, the same way there are different genres of house music there are differnt types of trance, and each dj bring his/her own taste into the way they spin. Dj'ing is more than just putting on records on some decks. If it was that easy then we would all be dj's. I just dont like the way Moutso spins, period.

malanee Posted April 9 Report Share Posted April 9 Originally posted by tinybutterfli since i'm still fairly a newbie when it comes to all this music.... and haven't mastered the genres & subgenres... can someone give me a quick rundown or point me to a primer? LOL As far as I can tell, genres and subgenres are a plot by the clubbing patriarchy to make newbies and females feel like they don't understand the music. Bottom line? There are some broad categories that are fairly easy to discern: Jungle; Breakbeat; House; Techno; Trance. Anything else is a judgement call. There are certain styles that are more progressive or new skool. But for the most part, a good DJ will be able to cross all of these arbitrary lines to put a good set together, because they are all sounds on a shared continuum of electronic music. Quibbling over whether it is "fairy" or "popular" or whatever is just a matter of personal tastes, IMO!And don't worry about being able to trainspot (name the song, producer, version) of a track you hear. After talking with several women DJs - I've discovered this is a VERY male thing to do. Which doesn't mean females can't and don't do it (both Millie and Scratch are excellent trainspotters) - it just means you are not any less of a music aficionado if you can't!My .02!

LOL I'm so bad at that! There's only a few tracks I can do that with. BTW, Vic thanks for pointing me to that website Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
