i have the joy of spending 3 days a week there, a time when i marvel at the insipid nature of the tragically hip, with their trucker hats, proto-mullets and 'so-bad-its-good' costumes. i was surprised when mr. Hawtin [insert Famous DJ Using Live Asshole, err Opinion HERE] moved there, and much less surprised when he moved out. didn't he leave NYC for the lazy capital of the world?jbible wrote:I honestly cant stand NY and I just get angry everytime I visit there.
Paul Van Dyk uses ABLETON LIVE!

NYC is not at its best right now musicly speaking...but it remains the capital of the world for international business. therefore many artist find NYC the best place to be since it means BUsiness....money...power....and there is were the arts suffer. i have to admit im not a fan of the NYC electronic scene at this moment, but im 100% it will happen again...after all its NYC!! the most famous city in the world...lolRx wrote:i have the joy of spending 3 days a week there, a time when i marvel at the insipid nature of the tragically hip, with their trucker hats, proto-mullets and 'so-bad-its-good' costumes. i was surprised when mr.

i have doubts that it will happen in ny again. i think it's more likely that communities spread out over the world that use the web to stay in touch & focussed will be the next set of creators.

dont need to. its all implied by context. its human naturemosca wrote:eh, yes it is. implying and stating are 2 different things. You're dissing me for having an opinion and i'm asking you to prove your point.its not neccessary.
plus, a quick search on your name turns up a lot of arrogant, negative sounding crap which is better left where it is that was already a waste of 2 minutes of my life. go look for yourself if this bothers you.

I think Detroit is still a good place to be in terms of electronic music.. there is a lot going on during the weekend for gigs and most of the DJs are really solid here, so you can hear good music all the time..
the up and coming producers work hard and push each other to do well.. and plus you have to be good here to be noticed, so no lazyness..

paul van dyk always makes me think of a baseball player named andy van slyke. i've been to one baseball game in my life (thankfully just one - the game is most boring) and i was sitting in the cheapest seats in the stadium. that also meant that i was sitting near the drunkest people in the stadium, one of whom was a shirtless (in 40F weather), beerbellied guy who yelled ad nauseum 'van slyke likes dikes! van slyke likes dikes!' it'd be amusing to find the guy and bring him to a paul van dyk show.
