I see where you're coming from but I also think the d.j (whoever it is) has a certain duty to educate their audience. IMHO I don't think Derrick May does this (that often) anymore. Why, I don't know - but I know a lot of people who say the same thing. I wouldn't say that i'm 'deconstructing things to a minute detail', i'm merely commenting on Derrick Mays' DJ'ing from MY perspective which I think is my given right as a punter. If other people disagree, then that's fine - that's their right also. Maybe i'm just too old & out of touch with the dance/club scene but I find listening to looped techno all night a bit boring .
