Along_the_Wire Agreed, good luck to the girl and congrats on the sucess so far. I normally turn her (and most of the other DJs in this genre) off after about 10 minutes of intrigue as I don’t get it, but music (as with the other arts) is subjective and it’s is probably why she’s killing life and I’m still in a 9-5 ha!

    Along_the_Wire Ok fair enough….I don’t like that she’s a shitty dj that gets gigs because she’s pretty. There. I said it.

    I would like her if she were actually talented, but she’s not.

        zackster

        Yeah I guess I just don’t care what she thinks about things. The day I look to The Black Madonna for policy breakdowns is the day I throw myself off of Half Dome. But if she can knock out a decent set and a remix here and there, cool.

            Kells77 She’s a shitty DJ that plays shitty music to a crowd that fucking loves it. Let her have her time in the sun.

                I’m a shitty DJ that plays brilliant music to people that don’t give a shit. It’s no life.

                  How far did Diggers get off of looking like an incredibly attractive potato?

                  Kells77 She’s an entertainer. She entertains. How some can be entertained for hours on end by the sounds she puts out will leave many shrugging their shoulders (myself included), but part of me thinks the music being played isn’t always the priority these days. Be there to be seen (see instagram)…..

                      Along_the_Wire LOL I suppose that would be true. You can always be your own audience, and then you play to an awesome crowd every time! Success!

                        But does G-man rock a decent pair of shoes whilst DJing.

                        I have a problem with her playing a load of covid gigs.

                        jonattonyeah see I need musicians to be 100% in line with my views, or they are right out. Its why I’m such a fan of Boyd Rice.

                          Kells77 May I suggest you see DJs you know will hit the spot with their music policy and their mixing? This Nina bird doesn’t sound like she’s up your straße

                              bosstrabs Interesting observation I had yesterday, listened to Sasha from Alexandra Palace on New Years 98/99, some of the tracks he played were absolute shite EDM type tracks, case in point - - - > Arrakis - Aira Force. Massive jesus pose and fireworks breakdown, exactly the kind of stuff that I’ll never listen to ever again from that era and I’m sure he’s embarrassed himself if he ever listens back to some of those sets.

                              So what is classed EDM? Is it the type of record? the clientele? The theatrics behind the decks? Production quality?

                              Not that I really give a fuck anyway, horses for courses etc etc. I’m not too cool for school, if kids enjoy nights out listening to Nina or Guetta then more power to them.

                                  LT42 So what is classed EDM? Is it the type of record? the clientele? The theatrics behind the decks? Production quality?

                                  Its now become its own genre. Aoki, Deadmau5 , Martin Garrix, et all make it. Big saw tooth synths, pitch bending the lead right before the “drop” and cymbals place on the kick drums (as opposed to in between) are all earmarks.

                                      EDM has become less of an acronym and more of a word of its own. It’s like obscenity. There is no real definition of what’s obscene, but we know it when we see it.

                                      Mass market EDM is the quick route to being minted if that is your goal, just look at Calvin Harris.

                                      The underground electronic scene is where the real talent and music lovers are, which is stating the obvious.
