Random Update
I've spent a few hours today kicking tracks around looking for new fresh dance music. I've come to realize something in the course of feeling my way around the music online: when you limit yourself to a genre you will eventually become obsolete. Genre's come and go, and genre specific djs are successful on the business end of music so long as their genre's are popular.
Every. Genre. Falls. No exceptions.
I've also realized that playing specifically to one genre is insanely dull. What's the point? You get the small fan base from that one genre, and nothing else. You limit yourself creatively and you stifle your arsenal of heavy beat driven tracks to a small fraction of what, other wise, you could whip out and blow your crowd away with.
What am I getting at here? A narrow vision yields a narrow path and a narrow amount of success. I'm not interested in either of those. I'll never be a goth dj, a dub step dj, a hardstyle dj, or a steapunk dj. I am... A Dj. Period. End of statement. I refuse to be tied to a genre. ... Ever.
