Not from the club goer perspective. People just want to hear their favorite songs

Someone @ the DJ from the colisuem that is posting his bets all the time

He has talked about this in depth Brice

You do understand before the digital revolution, you had to have basic skills to even approach a promoter or a club owner.

Yes the average club doesn't care how good someone can mix. But basic skills were at least a requirement.

It's 2016 now.

No one is denying that DJing takes real skill

everyone is a DJ these days. You know why? Because it's easy money and doesn't require much work

i AM a DJ, you dumb ass.. :laff: :laff: :laff:

so.. how the fukk you gonna tell me ANYTHING about something you dont even do/ever did.. :camby:
I really don't understand what you are objecting to?

It is sad that Kylie can get a quick come up like this doing something she knows nothing about

But to deny that in 2016 there is a low barrier to entry to be a DJ and the listeners music don't care about the DJ other than playing music they feeling is a little crazy

No one is going to this party to hear Kylie DJ. They are going because her name is going to have the place lit

Someone @ bruh. I forget his username

Y'all think people care about transitions? :mjlol:

It does enhance the experience of you care about that type of thing but most people don't
Ummm....yea.

who wants to hear a dj trainwreck track after track and fukk up every blend? That's a good way to clear out a room....I would know, that was what my first DJ gig was like back in 2002.

:what:

and, that requires being able to put a set together.. you actually think people just want to hear a bunch of songs, with no kinda transition..

man.. sit'cho dumb ass down somewhere, and stop trying to be heard all the time.. :camby:
EXACTLY!

Let me tell you, learning how to beatmatch, blend, transition was the hardest thing in the world when I first started. I learned from rave DJs back in the late 90s/early 00s. BAsically having the headphones set up in the mixer so you could hear the track that's next in the headphones so it doesn't go out in the main mix and learning how to use the pitch control to bring the speed of one record up to match the speed of the current record or slow it down...then using the eqs so the bass doesn't blow out by having double beats and clubs don't want you redlining their mixers.

going back to your post on this page, the EASIEST way to clear a room.. is to trainwreck/not transition correctly..

what kinda clubs this clown going to where the DJ cant match a beat.. :dahell:

Actually it does require much work now...more than ever. Since, like you said, everyone is a DJ, so everyone is fighting to get booked, get exposure, get press, get bigger and better gigs, etc.

Before the day of the internet DJs were revered as gatekeepers to music because not everyone had the knowledge of the music, the records, the skills, to capitalize off of so it was the few serving the many, now it's the many serving much more than that and anybody can go on mixesdb or beatport and find out which tracks a dj was using in their own set, so you have to work harder now to set yourself apart.

I was talking about this on twitter. The scene here in NYC really is more geared towards Djs playing others music than producers...simply because most of the people involved in the scene are terrible producers but better djs. If you want to get booked for better, you have to make your own tunes, it always has been this way. alot of these djs just make shyt techno tracks as bridges to carry other people's material which is much better than theirs.

In hip-hop it's different. Pop/Top 40 they want you to atleast have skills.

And honestly with all of these USB controllers and software that automatically beatmatches and has BPM counters, you really have to be a special kind of TERRIBLE to fukk those up.
