I would assume the opposite: that he plays the harder, more straight-ahead
stuff at the beginninng to satisfy the partiers and the when they leave he
plays to the music fans. I've certainly seen DJs do that before...
^_^
I was speaking w/ a hawtin fan about his recent tendencies toward
hard repetitive stuff- and they were trying to tell me that he uses the
hard stuff to weed people out of the crowd early on- for instance,
playing hard banging stuff so that the only people who stay are those that
want to just dance to anything and let the dj control them- then after an
hour or two he gets into funkier and more fun stuff. i cant really comment
because the last couple times i've seen him - i did leave within the first
hour :) anyone have any thoughts on this idea?
ps- my two cents: hawtin has demonstrated great skills, concepts and
innovations consistently over the years in terms of musical output and
production techniques, but as far as music at parties, i much prefer the
'93 - '96 hawtin than anything i've heard recently.
