What don't you get

That really is a crime. Genuinely should be illegal. FFS

Bet Paris H had that in her last ‘live’ set, fucking travesty.

When someone has released an lp or EP on Bandcamp, but there is only one reviewable track. Sometimes it’s the only platform for the release, and you have to buy the whole thing. I just don’t get it.

It’s usually just a teaser before the actual release date i think?

DJs who don’t consider where their gig is. Got asked to play the first three hours tonight at this vinyl bar that just opened in Boston. I did my thing that went over well be side who doesn’t love a bit of soul, disco and the yachtiest of rock when you’ve just finished work but at 9pm the other DJ showed up and decided that the best record to mix into the Hamilton Brothers was Avicci. Faded a 3 minute record out at about the 90 second mark to get his nonsense on. It went from a very busy bar to almost empty in 30 minutes. Read the room bro. Silver lining is that I think I’ve got a nice little earner as a monthly regular so not a bad nights work.

The biggest tragedy here is not playing Avicci and clearing the floor, but someone actually sought out and purchased Avicci on vinyl.

It’s like watching somebody walking into a glass door and trying to act like all is cool.

He had it all. And he brought it all in a metal record case - cue the nostalgia - but with stickers that just had his name on them and placed almost by committee on his box.

I do want to stress, no dance floor to clear. It’s a listening bar with round tables and low lighting etc.

I have to admit, I play a monthly listening bar gig, and when it gets busy I play UKG and dubstep.

(The caveat is I play super jazzy/RnB UKG and stripped dubby dubstep and I pitch it way the hell down and people love it)

Yeah I’m always amazed when I hear banging 2am tackle in the middle of the day on the radio. Which is a similar’know your audience’ kind of thing

Might be my age though in fairness…

Me, too. I was playing the music initially at a level that Mancuso would tell me to turn it up at. Gently gliding into my golden DJ years here.

hah! A lot to be said for patience and vibe checking yourself before you wreck yourself. Round my household, the saying is “4am is it?” and then you know, you fucked up with wrong song, wrong time, no build up.

Cristiano Ronaldo and his agent Jorge Mendes.

Just read all the kerfuffle from his comments at the awards ceremony and decided to look at who wi s the award and it seems like him and his agent manage to win at least one category every year. Knobhead has the gall to call it the most fair awards in an albeit very corrupt industry. Smells like someone clinging onto relevancy.
