Brilliant. Agreeing with Sloane's Pol Pot-esque Year Zero too.
I was thinking more DJ Fatwa, but DJ Pol Pot is good as well.

I think of it more as affirming than depressing. Sure, it highlights the things I/we hate about the state of global DJ culture, but it also tells me I've been doing the right things. That gives me hope.depressing thread

No more ableton arpeggio used by lazy minimal producers (me) as a way to fill space
Agreed.don't play it if you don't Love it
I think the point of Dogme was that it's a rigorous self denying discipline that you opt into rather than a set of general guidelines that everyone should follow. We're talking rules likePerhaps UFO over easy has a point after all. Let's start again and stop being negative; DOs instead of DON'Ts.
AndFilming must be done on location. Props and sets must not be brought in (if a particular prop is necessary for the story, a location must be chosen where this prop is to be found).
So negativity and excessive strictness is sort of the point...The sound must never be produced apart from the images or vice versa. (Music must not be used unless it occurs within the scene being filmed)
To be honest, I think low production values are the least of dance music's problems at the moment. (And that goes about 500 times over for the people who responded to the Philip Sherburne thing with a load of stuff about how digital instruments can never make music with soul. Suck my Wiley records you stuck up vintage fauntleroys.)DO play tracks that have been properly mastered and sound good on a large system.

I showed this to Paul Oakenfold and plopped himself.

1) never play the same tune on two successive nights
i find this thread a little depressing too.
to a certain extent a person is responisble for moderating their own output, and in my opinion the role of an artist (which i would consder many djs to be) is as a celebration of this. they are roaming in free territory, guided by their own instincts and beliefs. it is up to them where and whther they set barriers.
I'd go the other way... if you have a track that is Pure Heat, play it twice on the same night. 3 times even...
i agree with oblio and swears. this thread is whack.
