Re: Not another Nuxx thread, surely?
This is kinda weird - cos surely without the "c*nt of a dj standing, arms aloft living off the energy of the track" how would any dance track make it?

The essential thing about dance music is that people associate it with a whole experience. It isn't just hearing it on the radio that is going to turn it into a Top 10 hit (unless Pete Tong or some other high profile radio jock is on a mission like he was with this).

Slagging dj's for living off the energy of the tracks they play is a little like slagging a conductor of a classical orchestra for getting his kicks out of conducting Mozart. Everyone knows he wasn't the bloke wot wrote it, but that doesn't mean that he should be given no credit for bringing it to the people that want to hear it.
