I can't believe it!!
Every week when the WE is knockin' on doors I've fear to hear from all my friends djs that they'll lodge some Special Guest Dj Set in their clubbin' nights...
You'll ask me : why?
Cuz many of these "great stars" ask lot of money to work in OUR dancefloors and many times they work like a guy who see a vinyl for the first time....or simply they aren't able to be a DJ.
They pretend : money, a luxury car that takes them from the airport to the hotel, their preferred label of vodka, "26" Pioneer CDJ 1000 in consolle with "26" Technics 1200, a RANE mixer, much volume and many more...
They arrive in club when the party is already started, and they still have a laptop or anything else to plug in the mixer....
Ok...now all it's ok....YOU GREAT GUEST DJ can start your show....but....Houston we've a problem!!
When you're close to listen a famous dj (talking to you like a dj, like I am) you hope to learn something new....to learn from who travels every night around the world...to learn from who, you think, has a great experiences back to his shoulders..but...it isn't always in this way...
I've heard great "supposed stars" who have worked without mixing, without trying to put a record at the same speed of the other one...they were waiting that the pause arrived to inserting the next disc, or worst, they were keeping up two channels with one track to 128 bpm and the other to 130 bpm : a flock of mad horses would have done less noise....or they were drunk or this job is not for them!
I heard a famous CAT @ Chalet (no one in Turin wants to see him again here), I heard a french became famous thanks to a BUDDHA @ Rock City (a real scandal), many female (italians and strangers) models that suddenly a day they woke up with a headphones on their heads..and come in OUR DANCEFLOORS with a a pre-mixed cd, or worst...without have ever seen a mixer or everything else...
Recently we've lodged some ANGELS in Turin....a non-able dj (she was waiting the pause to insert the next track or she took many horses on the dancefloor), a non able violinist (she didn't took a note, she didn't took a tonality...it seems that she was killing a cat), a non able vocalist on the microphone (two words that sound like : put your hands up...clap your hands up for the dj...ehm...excuse me wath dj?)...
All these people is selled from agencies like "HOT ARTISTS", like super shows....or something similar....but...
...you have to know something my dear FAKE STARS.... : WE are the real stars, WE are the real djs...cause WE are the people who have to sweat to remedy the damages YOU do...mixing like you weren't able to do, without forgeting the humility, trying to do our work at best ... without forgeting that the guys who dance in front of you have paid for a ticket to come to hear you!
WE respect these guys...not you!
Please, "great stars", buy a mirror, put yourself in front of it and do a conscience exam...
I'm not famous and probably I'll never be...but I'm sure I know the way to do my job at best....forget the luxury cars, the champagne and all this fucking shit and learn how to be a dj! First secret? Passion for this work, for the music and stop!
Try to sweat your fuckin' money!
A big hug and lot of Respect to all MR. NO ONE like me....: don't worry dudes...cuz more climbed up in high and stronger your crash will be..
