How come Talent doesn't generate respect???

[DJMAYA]

eh?

we love the music we make and play, we do it with the passion of ten people at once! and yet there are people in the scene whom are purely ownly there for reasons of ego....and the people whom are actually the lifeblood of the scene get disrespected by not giving them the respect they deserve!!!
of course there are exceptions to the rule. but surely goodness, talent , and hardwork will pay off in the end.

i believe that things are being simplified/refined musically these days to the point where we actually are getting close to capturing puriety, capturing raw emotion and attitude like never before....not everyone has the ability to do that!!! can't people see that.

wordout.

Dont know how to answer, but...8)

I think that they are looking too much on some big names in electornic music and when they are buy a first equipment and learn "how to make a mix", they think that they are the same like some big name..thats the problem in my city...in city of 200.000 people is 70 DJs, can you belive...and there are only playing a few of that 70 registered...who knows how many have turntables and mixing and home and thinking they are big like NY city ?! NY City, yea :ppp :wink:

I think that people will understand whats i mean! :?: :!: o yea!

if you r honest lover of music u ll never get a respect from major public, but thats really irellevant. what it counts is a respect from your fellow ones, butt then again who cares...
if u want to be big learn how to scratch and dance and give 5 to ppl when u play. u can play really crappy music butt if they see u dancing then u r a BIG DJ.
in a world with that kind of public i d rather be hated by the most.

[wenna]

you've hit the nail on the head miromiric!


'flavours die,taste lasts forever' :wink:

Over half the time its all one big Hype machine........

Ask Pat or Frank about certain guys who get booked NON-STOP in this city who honestly can't mix worth shit. :?

-jOHNNY

[miromiric.]

do they dance and give highfive around?

[crime]

if you r honest lover of music u ll never get a respect from major public, .
I don't think that's strictly true.... a lot of the time its about being in the right place in the right time....
Who cares anyway.... so long as you enjoy what you do, that's what matters.....

[Adverse]

that is all that matters on that note, these topics get redundant imo.

[DJMAYA]

oh...and i was just trying to motivate yas!

sounds like you've all gone cold and hard. :lol:

[PETDuo]

the only thing u need to worry is how to get involved.
'cause i think that for being a dj is about understanding what it's in people's mind, and then, with that, what can possibly be going in yourself, as u face your own personality, then u can more and more face the whole world....TECHNO is the word
maybe i'm being just too much spiritual, but then...why are we all here?

[DJMAYA]

SAVE THE PETS don't eat em!

who the bloody hell is eating all the pets???


azaaaahahahahahahahahhhmmmooooaaaammoooaaaaaa :D

[PETDuo]

THEN U R EATING THEM!

[davethedrummer]

oh maybe not.



sausage anyone?

[miromiric.]

veganism is for gays.

[tioneb]

i dont thnik we have to compare with other djs.. then there will be lot of hate like the one we can see in your messages... i dont really care if my music is better than anyother dj. i just do what i like, whatever my crowd is my room's wall or a place fulll of mad clubbers.

i just thnik we can all have some oppotunities and we have to enjoy them the most we can, theres no need to thnik "i have to be better than this man who always get gigs but who sucks".. pwaa shit, do music thats all !

i disagree,

i agree with miromiric, can you name an artist who makes quality music, and when i say quality i mean, time, effort and skill clearly within their music, along with a serious passion for the music in which they represent, - now name that one artist who the majority of the public respect?

i'll answer it for you....there is'nt one

[crime]

depends what you consider quality really, it's all objective...
like I said before, does it really matter? So long as you enjoy what you do...

Better get back to that brick wall and bang my head some more....

[Col]

[quote="crime"]depends what you consider quality really, it's all objective...

yes it hard to define quality, but time, effort and skill clearly within the music, along with a serious passion for music which they represent, go some a long way in justifying what im saying here.

does it matter? So long as you enjoy what you do

yes it does matter.

if a rapist rapes another person, i imagine that they enjoy doing it, does that make it ok to rape someone? just as long you are enjoying it?

[crime]

Ignorance is bliss eh?

[Col]

yep :lol:

[Jimfish]

thats not really a great comparision COL..

[Col]

hey, all i did was use an example of his comment, to try make him look at his comment from a diffrent perspective. in enjoying yourself there are other people to consider, thats what i was trying to say.

maybe i shouldnt of used a rapist as an example :roll:

[Jimfish]

:wink:

[crime]

maybe i shouldnt of used a rapist as an example :roll:
I agree....

[Col]

maybe i shouldnt of used a rapist as an example :roll:
I agree....

well at least we agree on something :lol:

lets just agree to disagree.....agreed? :lol: :lol: :lol:

[wenna]

time generates respect 8)
talent generates admiration 8)

[DJMAYA]

IN some cases yes...

but the general truth is that it always eludes the majority whilst a few reap what has been sowed!

people all over the world love dance music in all its forms. Some of us do a really good job making it and playing it, and some of us are mindblowing. not sell outs! and yet some of us still play for good vibes etc instead of the 10grand paychqs we need to support our familys etc.
coh! i hope ya understand what im getting at...

freakin words are such poor communicators!!! ill take a beat anyday!
