Without a direct quote or some explanation of what he means by that
or why
I wouldn't write him off.
It could mean just as Matt says below - but damn, that's a loaded
statement. I hope there comes some explanation soonish.
Eamonn - did he ever explain that statement to you?
Well.. I was just asking him what kind of stuff he was DJing these
days.. he said he hated blues notes in music.. and black vocals...
but that he used to like otis redding.
He pretty much dismissed 90's techno and seemed pretty much unaware
of anything that had come out of detroit since 1990.
He said it was just his preference now, that he didn't like or play
black music.. not in any way racist [didn't come across like that
anyway].. just seemed like a ridiculous categorization to me!
It's about as ludicrous as that stupid MOBO thing [music of black
origin awards].. I mean, where the hell do you draw the line ? Irish
traditional Music [which has it's roots in Egyptian and Eastern
European Music] influenced american country music, which among others
influenced Stevie Wonder..... etc etc etc
Robotnik's a VERY nice guy by the way !
