Well, I was trying to avoid the Wall-Of-Text, but thnx for posting the actual articles, DynV. xD

It seems like alot, but its a good read, smoke a J and check it out -- I've never seen anyone in the electronic music scene be so brutally, and publicly, honest about these things ...

I don't think Noah can have any Hardcore (maybe in the future when Hardcore is becomes normal, like in Holland xD ) so you should rip those hard-techno records of your's onto CD, or stick to d'n'b, and re-apply ;)

So, a while back an artist, who I met 2 years ago at the Kinetik industrial festival, wrote about the music scene in a blog. He talks primarily about the industrial scene, but it pertains to all. He's the front-man for the band Caustic, but this has nothing to do with that, this is just a personal observation from him, and I found it interesting enough to post it here ... Basically, it's about club-nights and music, a poke at people who complain about shit, but don't do shit.

There are 4 parts to this: The Fans, the Promoters, the DJs, and the Producers.

Here's a teaser:

''Here’s a note to every person who bitches about “not getting any good shows” in their area: What the hell have YOU done to make them happen?

We live in a time where everyone can be lazy as fuck. You don’t need to pay for music or television or movies or ANYTHING if you don’t want to. On top of it you can anonymously whine online about all the shit YOU DIDN’T EVEN PAY FOR and be an asshole just because you hate your life or think it’s funny being a dick when you’re drunk.

Guess what? You’re the fucking problem.''

**BTW, I'm also posting this 'cause what he says is fucking true, it's real. People need to either wake-the-fuck-up, or shut-the-fuck-up.

Right on!

you always have to ask yourself, What Would Jesus EQ ? xD

yeah turn this moombathon into a marathon xD

Moombahcore !? Nah, must be a type-o, I think its supposed to be Moombahcrap ... xD

yay, a high that's pretty much the same thing as sleeping in a field sober ... xD

fixed ;)

haha! you too, eh? xD



Is it his Gay Fish song? :p

damn ... that could've been sweet!

But, these guys are too quick & professional, they already confirmed the bus-trip for me, and it probably costs money (and wastes time) to cancel it ...

Still, could be cool if you came up with Nicky and Fish! I guess you'd have to get in touch with Ninjah_Fareye to check it out ...

No, you need to get paid in gravy! 'Cause if i get booked the same day, and ask for fries as payment, we can all eat Poutine! xD

Damn, DJs are so greedy these days ... :P

I should be free on the 17th or the 31st :)

... Guess I'll have to make a special Mountain track though ;)

I'm wondering if it isn't also just another case of Ozzy Osbourne-itis ... where some Dr.Hollywood guy prescribes a bunch of chems for these aging super-stars ... fucks 'em up real good!

They're getting me there by bus ...

Would be awesome if some MTLers put a road-trip together to come down though!

Excellent! Both funny and depressing ...

Ha!

... and AppleJacks cost about 4$ and taste like cinnamon! xD

haha xD

I'll do it for 'em : Saturday, July 23rd!

you guys are totally interrupting the iTrance ...

Holy shit, curiosity made me check this out .. its pretty fuckin' grandiose! I thought it was some big Psy thing, but nah, motherfucking waterpark? UKHC? hardcore? Spain? damn ...

Unfortunately, I recognize like 3 artists on that entire super long list o_O
Seems like the music is gonna be too cheesy, and well, too expensive for the whole trip ...

Maybe I'll go in 2021, when I can get booked to play there :P :P :P

If Alien wants a Mac 'cause he NEEDS certain programs only available for Mac, then let him spend the extra cash and deal with the future Mac headaches ...

So, on the other hand, you can buy a really good Laptop w/ Windows (yeah, I hate Win too, but meh) and just don't go on the 'net with it, if you're buying a machine for audio/visual, and can use Win programs.

I use a shitty pc with Ubuntu (linux) for the 'net, and a decent virgin laptop for music. Perfect.

It's like comparing oranges and tangerines here ... Mac, PC, whatever, its a fucking computer, so just get what suits your needs at the best price you can find with the energy you're willing to spend on the research, and enjoy whatever piece of enslaving technology you decide to get xD -- just make sure you buy what you need, NOT what offers you the most amount of useless fancy options.

The idea is to know what you want the computer for, and take it from there ...

Thnx Al :)

So many good times, so much great music, I hate to see this end, but we're moving on and up! I hope everyone who loves Hardcore makes it out, 'cause this'll be your last chance to hear real hard'n'heavy electronic tunes in a bar for a while ...

For those interested - Datagram Radio will probably still be airing various random Dj sets, recorded at OCDj, on Friday nights 'round 9pm, right after A Voice Of The Underground: [ datagramradio.org ]

TONIGHT! The last one folks, so come get drunk with us ;)

Your last chance for Hardcore in a bar, for a while!

Get there, get down, drink up, freak out.

Wicked! Thnx for having me .. I'll do my best to tear up the place .. Toronto here I come! xD

Big-up Coresteppers =)

haha xD reminds me of something ...

That already happens ... Anyone want Paris Hilton at their next event? :p

I'll start digging the hole ;)

Here's a dramatic topic of discussion for y'all:

This city now has officially too many Promoters and not enough DJs!

This fuckin' place is over-saturated with promoters for bar/club nights that all share common interests, and book the same people -- even though there is still a lack of Rave promoters ...

*pop corn, enjoy the movie*

On Tuesday, July 5th 2011, with a heavy heart, OCDj presents its final night. Although an abrupt end, for reasons explained below, I've decided to play alone rather than book the massive line-up one would expect of OCDj (sorry!). So, as a farewell, I'll be playing tunes from all the hard genres that touched the night ::

--> Dj Nā (Deadna prod.) [Hardcore, Gabber, Dubstep, Hard-Techno, Industrial, Breakcore, D'n'B, Speedcore, 90s Alternative, Psy, etc.]
22:00 - 03:00

Only 2$ at the door, coat-check included.
@ Bar Le Passeport, 2037 St. Denis (metro Berri-UQAM)

Specials:
Bottle of beer: 3$
2 Shots of hard: 6$

OCDj The End Manifesto:
For both personal and professional reasons, that have nothing to do with the success of the night itself, I have decided to end OCDj. After 11 months of pure wickedness - spread out over the course of a year and a half - tons of good times, great music, and loyal fans, I need to take time off from the bar scene to focus on both my music, and a major Hardcore event that I'm organizing for the end of August. So, all good things must come to and end, and in this case I'm going with the ''quit while you're ahead'' scenario. I apologize to the Hardcore scene, that will no longer have it's home at OCDj, that will no longer have a weekly night to attend, enjoy, get drunk at, and mix at, but we need to grow and therefore need to concentrate on bigger better things. I'm amazed at how many people love Hard Electronics, and are thirsty for more. I hold dear every person that walked into the bar and showed faith in our music. I want to thank every single one of OCDj's supporters, as well as all of the awesome DJs who have passed by to drop heavy beats, my graphic designer for the great flyer and poster work, Datagram Radio, and of course, Bar Le Passeport for supporting me and giving us a chance to dance to crazy tunes. My heart is broken, but life goes on, and Hardcore will never die. OCDj will forever remain one of the highlights of my music career, and is a testament that once in a while, I can do the right thing. With much sadness, I leave you all the to wolves of Montreal, to an electronic scene now over-saturated with promoters and bar nights - to revolt, to let this city know that you will not accept anything less than the hardest. Never fear, OCDj will be back one day, when the city needs it most. Much love.

Tonight tonight!! Shit, I have 45 minutes to shower and pack my record bag o_O

H A R D T E C H N O !

i figured the same, that he's gonna have to ride out to the Waste Island to find one ... maybe he can grab a coffee at the last Dunkin' Donuts on the way :p

haha! xD .. nah, trying to deactivate your FB account is the reason you get shot in the first place :p

^ Awesome! I can't wait for a big dose of heavy techno =)

BTW, Indica very rarely plays these days, so make sure to come check out this unique opportunity; 3 Montreal legends, side-by-side ... + me xD

quick, roll a joint!

lol @ geeks tyring to find the lesser of 2 evils :p

... as with everything in life, computers would be a lot better if people worked together instead of competing for cash. Why can't they just make really good hardware, and make all the OS's compatible, let people decide what interface they want to use, whether its windows, any MacOS, or Linux .. ?

Money: creates amazing technology, and profits with an endless supply of shitty consumer products.

why'd you shoot me?

ah! mysteries solved xD
thnx :)

I figured most dubstep wast at 140, I just wasn't sure if the difference in the new terms that're surfacing were due to style or simply tempo (i hate it when tempo is the only difference between types of techno, don't see the point of creating a whole 'new genre' for 10 BPMs ) but I see that in this case it's a combination of tempo, style, and influence ...



haha! xD indeed ...
