fooishbear, its as you said, theres no strict policy and not alot of people here might like the music Im into but, there might be the odd one about. It might be this forum that that 1 person reads about the gig and decides to come and has a great time. 1 person having a great time in my eyes is worth getting the word out.
It seems to me that PCP is getting regular gigs and making a living out of playing other peoples shit music (maybe badly - depending on your point of view) with out needing to submit demos'
What does that say about word of mouth/ being spotted by talent spotters/ reputation/ dedication and what I reckon is probably a fantastic ethic of playing good music at the right time versus sucking up to promoters/ DJ's that throw parties that require demos but don't have the decency to respond to some one that submits their recorded credentials as a DJ except to diss them online years later.... I was kind of enjoying your approach and kept quiet until you put your foot where your genitals belong.
When I didn't have a job, my income was Djing. Not the dole, but playing music. I've never had a business card or anything and didn't suck up to anyone for gigs. I got my work through word of mouth. Now, I had play music I DIDN'T like, but, I played it well. Thats why I'm proud of what I do.
As I said. I don't know who DeejayPcp is. His reputation and demo haven't left an impact on me. Obviously mine has to him if after all that time he can still remember that he sent me a demo. Now if I said I'd give him the gig, I'm sure that means he's a great Dj, and if he's making a living out of his talent thats fantastic especially because its a hard thing to do. But, there was a reason the call never came. Maybe the gig never happend for what ever reason? We only did 1 charity event last year and it was a house one. Maybe I just forgot? There could be a thousand reasons. Im trying to launch a breaks night in Febuary. Send me another demo and if its good maybe you can play. If you dont want to then don't.
But what I want to achieve, is alot different to what you want. With all due respect, don't give me advice about the music industry because I couldn't give a rats cock about the music industry and I don't even consider myself apart of it.
I consider what I do seperate to everything and anything else because, I don't want to be involved with anyone else.
I dont want the scenes or industries up my arse. What I want to acheieve goes beyond music and club gigs and all that. It has humanitarian value, not musical. Music is just the medium of deliverance. Not many people understand that, especially not many Dj's, but the ones who do understand something all the others don't. They understand that its about the people there, not themselves. Thats why we're all so happy with the arrangement, because all we're doing is spreading happiness with music. Thats all. Nothing more, nothing less.
Everyone seems' to be such an expert about the music and clubbing industries. Yet they never come to the fucking gigs do they? Everyone is such an expert first, and a person second. Thats the problem, thats why I come down as a cock talker. Because everyone thinks I want to make it in the music industry. Fuck that. There is no music industry. Just the gruesome exploitation of innocent sounds.
Oblivious: I came here because a friend reffered me here to find DnB/Breaks Djs because I'd like to host a DnB & Breaks event. Then I got hooked because I like you guys, (most of you) Because, as Blaxter has said, "wouldn't it be better to educate someone rather than ban them"
Thats why I respect you guys. Because you see value in education. But, I'd like that education to go both ways. As much as I learn from you guys, I'd like to teach something as well if I can.
I completely understand you guys won't come. I don't hate you for it. This is the one place where I don't because it's not like your a bunch of Techno heads who complain of no where to go, so then you throw a gig for them and they don't come because they think they're too underground for the person hosting it. You like breaks, Im not throwing breaks gigs (Yet) and so, its understandable, but its just a little extra effort on my part to go to the trouble to let you know the gigs are on. It does no harm to me and I think none to you, but if someone DOES come then, its a benefit. I'm just trying to not be lazy.
GhettoKitty: I got banned from ITM because I retaliate. I have more people coming to me telling me how full of shit they are in REAL LIFE, to my face, than I do typing shit about how much of a dick I am over the internet. So if you were in my shoes who would you listen to? A bunch of fuck head popularity whores having a cry over a forum or the faces at your gigs who say "Hey aren't you nakedage? The bloke who starts shit on ITM? Man I love your shit, I dont post there but I read it and man your right".
Try and understand. I defend myself because I'm proud of what I've done. If people are going to knock it down, then I want anyone who can read to know the truth of the situation. If all I can do to explain it is in big blurbs on the net, then thats all I have. I don't defend myself to make trouble. I don't look for it. I just have ideas, views and opinions, and I choose to defend them because I'm proud of them because they have formed in the face of adversity.
still at it huh?
