BEING "PRODUCTIVE"

> Ive been noticing more and more lately that "DJs" that produce sometimes arent as good at the djing part as they are at production, yet they are still paid thousands of dollars to play a mediocre set at best then climax with the one song that they are famous for at the particular moment, and everone there is too messed up on drugs or just plain old not musically educated enough to know the difference or to hear the things that we hear with our trained ears. Now dont get me wrong, Im all about praising them for their production skills, but playing a premixed abelton set is kinda, well, easy! I mean you dont even have to match beats! you hit a midi trigger and youre playing with touch tracks! theyre matched to a master tempo already. I feel if youre gonna have all of your tracks master tempo'd then you better have something a little more spectacular to do than twist some knobs. Im not calling anyone out in particular but its just something that I wanted to address because its getting worse as the EDM scene grows.
