there are some old dudes who are still relevant. but there's a lot of them who are still djing just because they don't know what else to do with their lives. but they seem to have no interest in new music, new sounds, or new ideas.
and that's why the new generation of kids (at least here in america) aren't flocking to events like they used to. now granted- its not all the djs fault. its the fault of promoters who won't take a chance and book new talent. and its also the fault of the public who only go check out a dj if its a tried and tested name. its a viscious cycle that is eating away at our music. yes- there are some exceptions. recloose is a new, young exciting name. the perlon guys are experiencing some new found popularity. i guess its mostly tied to production. if you can get you're records out there, you can get your name out. it just frustated me that i know so many great djs who could smoke the 'famous' dudes, but never get the chance.
