Ahahaha, this is such a merciless reckoning with a wider part of the so called "DJ Culture".

"You say you care about the culture. But really – you just care about your name."

I know some DJs felt the need to justify their art by mixing every 1.5 min or so & mangling tracks to display their skills but (still) almost all my favourites just know how to let a track flow & THEN flow it into the next - it’s always about the music, isn’t it? Happy to be corrected in this if I’ve somehow missed something. #djing #rave #djculture
