I think the message was aimed more towards the POP headliners such as Moby, Oakenfold, Underworld, etc.., NOT at their more underground stage partners.
Point being if I flip through the MAJOR FM radio stations I may pass that shitty Moby track on a POP station. I'm not going to catch "slak" or "Elektrostatik" EVER on those same stations. Needless to say, I meet these dumb azz f*ckin promoters from time to time and consider them mostly a disease. They have no concept whatsoever. They are just trying to make a buck and be cool at the same time. Throw a bunch of names on a flyer, add whatever local talent is pandering to you, hire a bunch of stupid light systems, and voila. Instant success party. Personally I'd rather shoot myself in the foot than attempt to throw a party of that caliber. It was in a recent Autechre interview that they discussed art without a dissident edge, basically saying that without that propulsion away from the establishment or from compromise the art isn't really communicating anything revolutionary or otherwise. I think these people (wack promoters) should go get a job at a burger joint and contribute more to society. I won't tell you what I REALLY think they should go do...
