Just heard a story of a DJ (who I will leave un named) that we all know, has played Berghain maybe 100 times, has frequented the club probably even more times and got denied entry at the door last night. Couldn’t stop laughing when he told me 😅

Hard fast rave trance with EDM break downs now bieng called Techno by the masses seems to fall equally in line with the influx of watered down tech house.

Pro tip: if you yearn to be a successful touring DJ in todays climate don’t attend a music production school.Your investment will be better utilized attending a modeling school. Also a course at local university on social media and digital marketing will put you ahead of the game

shout out to all music producers who’s tracks are played in a mass majority of DJ sets or podcasts. yet never get the amount of gigs they deserve. Artists who’s various tracks might be played 25 times over the weekend at berghain yet 95% of the dancers will never know they exist.

For all the “techno” DJs who have moved on to playing hardcore/gabber/hard style. Why still call it techno? never mind all the “im beyond genres” arguments. It just seems offensive to all the people who have been playing this music for the last 30 years and you barely jumping in

The bubble is popping and everyone is too concerned with projecting a false image of success to realize that it’s all falling apart. Only those whose intentions were pure in the beginning will stand firm through it and will also be on top when the cycle starts over.

Every time I see another techno DJ jumping on the Gabber bandwagon, I’m calling bullshit. It’s obviously a trend and most of you I’ve know for at least a decade now. If someone tried to pull that shit off 3 years ago, you all would be hating and talking shit. Staaaap.
