This is our X/Threads overview of the week! What is the scene up to? Which DJ beef is trending? You will know everything!
- Same with promoters
a lot of ppl in music have rich parents… more than u think
i just get jealous of ppl who can pursue music to their fullest bc they have a security blanket to fall back on. they don't have to worry about surviving :/

2. Multitask DJ!
Experienced a new DJ gig first last night:
Drunk dude slipped and went head first into the DJ booth (and broke it). Had to hold the booth together AND mix at the same time while the AV team put the booth back together.
…and we’re only one week into 2024.
😂

3. 100%
the whole ghost production argument is such a joke. everyone in the industry knows who makes their own music and who ones doesn't, but none of us say because its bad for business. if u do even a little bit of research it's not hard to find out

4. A booth with nice people dancing in it
DJ's…
Do you prefer a slammed dj booth.
Or
An empty dj booth.

6. Stop making non-affordable techno parties
Worse. There's like 10% of the venues left now and hundreds more DJ's. Pair that with a generation who are happy to sit indoors on a Friday or simply can't afford to spend on a night out. https://t.co/EOaAzTRw0J

7. Hard for some…
⚠️ This is gonna hurt many DJ’s ego: People aren’t there to see you. They don’t even care who is DJing truthfully. But they know a great DJ when they hear one.
People are only there to have a good time, and hear good music. That’s the duty of your job. So leave your ego at home.— DJ 5am Smite (@djsamsmite) January 6, 2024
8. LOL
Normalize asking “oh really, what was your favorite part?” (in a challenging tone) when someone says “great set”

9. Deal
electronic music needs to become scarier

10. Hot take
Sorry to say this, but Techno always felt like a something for outsiders so watching videos of tens of thousands of people dressed the same and doing the exact same body movements as each other looks almost fascist at times
