I realize that it's just not your style - but why let the hip-hop DJs have
all the fun?
I'd love to see more DJs be able to do what Claude, Shake, Mills, and
similar styled artists do
If a techno DJ shouldn't scratch, cut, use their nose, elbow, etc. then
what about people like DJ Craze?
Are they not supposed to play house, drum & bass, and techno mixed in with
their hip-hop?
some of them drum looped techno tracks only have one good part - I don't
want to hear the entire thing played out and mixed seamlessly into the next
drum loop. That bores me to tears. It takes all kinds of DJs to make a
party: The David Mancuso's who don't want to overlap a single tune; those
who blend, mix, and select well but would sooner scratch their @ss then try
and scratch a record; and those that barely let a second go by without some
kind of manipulation of the record/mixer/turntable.
As long as they do it with conviction then I'm all for it.
