@ItsSebastianK @theARSNL Industry standard mostly everywhere tbh. Especially because of how saturated it’s been in the last 10 yrs. Everyone and their grandmas is a mediocre DJ now willing to play for exposure and garbage treatment, so it becomes “normal”.

Area15 pulled a corny move on my peeps which ruined the vibe but we must not dwell on these stupidities that come from the music industry. It’s time to rise above and CREATE*

@theARSNL I went from >1000s of plays & likes to <100 on a GOOD day 😞 They only want reels now…

IG is trippin’ and limiting views again

@JoeIsInSpace @emuhmusic @WonkyWrecs I was intuitively assuming this. For many reasons. But I guess that’s the key word: many.

@JoeIsInSpace @emuhmusic @WonkyWrecs I mean, I’ve fallen off the DB train but here’s some perks from campout:

@JoeIsInSpace @emuhmusic 2/2 When we were dreaming NFTs on clubhouse during the pandemic, we had some of the most genuine and inspiring ideas towards its use and future… instead: CARTOONS

@JoeIsInSpace @emuhmusic @WonkyWrecs 1/2 That’s an unfortunate byproduct of a greedy capitalist psychology. Decentralization (innovation) means nothing if we don’t intend on modifying our consuming behavior / relations.

@rangerpandapuff @PrettyLights @Griz lol if only you knew buddy... ignorance is blisssss

EDM twitter is on fire today! Can we all just agree that @Dirtybird is the best and the only person we need to come back is @PrettyLights. Also the only human paying attention to reality of the situation is the damn GOAT and human for the people known as @Griz.

@lexlucifer_ When overzealous capitalists take over... it's no different than hollywood, the same psychological mechanics at play, affecting the entire hierarchy. Old boys club on a new playground.

@doobsteprincess Twitter is not the place for nuanced takes. It's either scapegoating or over-glorifying artists. As someone who has worked atop the industry, I can assure you it's one of the scummiest places to exist. Fans only know about 10% of what goes on and they love it that way :)

@theARSNL @GordoSZN Bro please, most artists and fans are nothing but spineless followers. I’ve been fighting this since I entered the scene and I’ve been bullied by all of them for doing so. Let’s focus on building instead of wasting energy giving them more attention 🤷‍♂️

@EllieDodger Not self love fam… it takes a lot of work though. Self love ≠ egotistical arrogance or entitlement.

Love is a bullshit capitalist concept. The more you buy in, the more hollow and empty you feel. It’s like coke except you’re left broken and crying when it’s all gone.

@theARSNL Pioneer is kinda trash tbh. Too big to fail, unfortunately.

Personally I don’t know one person who owns 3000s. CDJ technology is truly hitting a peak.

@NocturnalWland was ALL vibes and magic. One of the most inspiring and exciting experiences of my life! Thanks for all your support of the wonk and funk! LETS KEEP GOING! 👾👾👾

I’ve cut out about 69% of people I met in the industry. If you’re still funkin with me just know it’s all love fam 🤗 It’s only and all about the music ❤️

@Lowsteppa You been a staple since I started 10 yrs ago 👌 Let’s keep going!

I’ve been DJing 23 years this winter 🤯 I’ve seen so many trends, fads and phases come and go. Don’t chase the hype, just do what you love always. Steppa x

When you find those overlooked and underground artists from years ago that become staples in your life journey… It’s goals to be that artist for someone one day 🙏
