DJing doesn't count.

...because it's just a noise?

No cause the turntables do the work you just change the record.

If you have ever seen a shit DJ you know that what you are saying is bollocks.
Fair enough, the technical aspect of DJing is a massive piece of piss* compared with playing a musical instrument, but the part that not so many people can master is the selection of records and the development of themes etc throughout a set etc.

Your argument is as specious as that decrying practitioners of electronic music as without talent. If your point was valid, anyone could be a good DJ.

Once again your argument is demonstrably nonsense. Perhaps that’s what you are good at – talking shit?


*I am excluding pure turntablism from this because I am not great at beatjuggling etc

I am perplexed to find myself agreeing with Monty against Bobby
but he's right. Even if beatmatching and scratching are unnecessary in your field (as they are in mine) the matter of song selection is still a skill that many would-be DJs do not possess

I know fuck all about DJing to be honest I was just trying to coax a little bite out of him.

I'm just enjoying angry Monty today. I tried DJing once, didn't care for it.
However I appreciate the skill involved if you are any good.

I do that when I win a big pot in poker just get all the chips in the crook of arm
and slowly pull them back going beep, beep, beep. It really pisses people off.

You'd be amazed how many people I've seen fail at DJing metal
On the basic assumption that "I love this obscure Norwegian black metal band, therefore everyone else will too"

you changed all that after I had posted.
Are you going to do this after every little dig? Cause I am learning stuff.
