Metropolis: I apologize, I suppose that what you HAVE done has gone unnoticed by me because I stopped going to Metro so much due to lack of remodeling and new image, and lack of a crowd. But I wish you best of success, and hope everything works out for the best for you.



Thank you, i missed that...

1. To reiterate, Trance isn't techno. House isn't techno either. the techno police would not be amused by this generalization.

2. If you're playing orig CD's or Cd's ripped from your own vinyl that's cool. If you're playing pirated shit you won't make many friends here.


First of all, I am not getting into a discussion about what "techno" is and what "house" is and what "trance" is. I really don't have the time or the patience to get into such a stupid discussion. So, for the sake of arguing let's just call what I play good "ELECTRONIC MUSIC."

Secondly, Where did your second point come from?? Because I said I play CD's, you just assume that I am using pirated material?? Does this also mean I am not a real DJ too because I am not breaking my back carrying 10 crates of vinyl down with me to play?? Lighten up. You would probably be pretty damn surprised at how much money I, personally, and my friend (DJ Impulse) put into equipment and music. It would probably make your head spin..... That's all I'm gonna say about that.....

You can have the most expensive equipment in the world, and STILL suck!

I am not sure if you are trying to imply that I now suck because I have good equipment or if you are just making a general statement. But, yes, you can SUCK whether you are playing vinyl or CD's or whether you are playing on $hitty equipment, or excellent equipment or whether you are playing D&B, or house, or techno, or trance, or top 40, etc.. In other words, if you SUCK, you SUCK!! Great, I am glad that that is all cleared up...

These forums seem to be nothing but a rip fest on DJ's/clubs/promoters, etc.... The whole purpose of this thread was to let you/people know what was going on at Metropolis on Sunday nights. It has gone from an informative thread, to the definition of "techno music," to whether I am playing pirated material (which, I have no idea where this came from), to what equipment I/We have and that we can "STILL suck" regardless of what I/We are using. Certain people on these threads get on here and talk a bunch a crap, and yet don't even come down to check out what is going on. Talk is cheap. Anyone can get on here and talk trash, because it is easy to do, especially when posting on an internet forum.

I am not sure if some DJ's feel threatened in some way, and feel like they need to cut others down to make themselves look good/better or what. I don't get into that. If you are good at what you do, then that is great. If you are better than me, or I am better than you - SO WHAT!!! I do believe that if everyone who is into the "electronic music" scene (especially in Cleveland) would be a little more supportive of each other instead of trying to knock each other down all the time, we'd have a lot stronger "electronic music" culture here.

Anyway, if you get a chance, come down and check it out every Sunday night at Metropolis. I am more than happy to talk to other people who are into the same kind of music.....

Guilty conscience or lack or reading ability? I belive Neuspeed said cool if you're playing original CDs, not cool if you're not. That's not pointing fingers specfically either way.

As far as "good" EDM...how about a tracklisting/chart? Then maybe there'd be something substantial to discuss versus emotional rants.

I wasn't implying that YOU suck, I was making a general statement, so don't be an asspacket and get all defensive.

Oh, of course there is no reason to get defensive, right?!? I mean, I can tell by this post of yours that you aren't trying to be offensive or degrading in any way shape or form....Not only that, but I specifically said in my post that you may have been making a general statement...Geez, Talk about getting defensive!!!!

Hey man, I'm not challenging anyone on their skillz, I was just makin a point. I've seen people spend $3,000 on equipment, and didn't have a clue what they were doing. Then you got someone like me who spent $750 on equipment, and I sound pretty good (not to be egotistic). It's not the equipment, it's the man behind it that puts on the show.
