Ding! Nail on head. Paxahau does things a ceratin way, just like plenty of deejays do things a certain way, but if that deejay doesn't take into consideration the specialized tone of the event and plays completely inappropriate music, they'd be slagged. There was some London thing that was supposed to be about influences and someone came and played their standard techno set. They got slagged off big time on here for not being appropriate (big name too IIRC). I kinda feel the same about this deal. Not too big on criticizing things I can't help out, but come on, they were hired to do the DEMF and pulled a paxahau box-lunch pre-fab party. I don't care if you're derrick may, if you come play the best banging tech at a dub affair that you were invited to for your particular knowledge of dub, I might have some words with you. So paxahau as I understood were invited to do this on the strength of their knowledge and devotion to the Underground sound of Detroit and they used that reputation to (so far) push the overground sound of money. the fact that they've told people their list is full and they won't divulge the Detroit locals makes me even more suspect. I don't care who they have on there really, simply because I KNOW AC or the retroactive crew would do a more solid performance than at least two of their current bookings (not to mention the whole Detroit thing). So...whatever. back to beats. Kks mwnb
