I'm getting tired of people saying "It's all been done."
It hasn't all been done. I'm 50 years old, and the world I grew up in
doesn't exist any more.
In a lot of ways, maybe music still repeats existing patterns, maybe
people still have to learn to get along with their signficant others &

And this is exactly what would happen on a dance floor with any good
dancers. And knowing a few dancers they'd turn up at an event where they
knew their bodies were creating the sound and eventually you'd have another

well, you either have a person being the control mechanism (DJ) who can
observe the room, take in emotional levels, combine them with her/his own,
and spit back out something unexpected (like stopping the music and telling
a story to the audience that has some relevance to what's going on)
