#ETC2024

I want to DJ before midnight

The number of people who love dancing to these sounds vs the number of people who want to / can stay up late… I dunno 200:1 ?

Shout out to the goblins I love you, but 3am is a niche passion

How different is your trajectory if the event you do yourself is bimonthly rather than waiting for a ‘booking’?

You probably don’t need an agent and a manager you probably need to team up with two other like minded artists and get going.

Wow!! One step closer to the big stage🚀🙌🏾.. This one is special to me and can’t wait for the 27th April🤞🏾..

#Mamas prayers ❤️🥰..

the biggest change that's happened in dance music in the pas 20 years is the goals of a newcomer going from 'how can i get involved in the community?' to 'how can i blow up to an international level, quickly?'

Also think about artists outside of your network - ppl in places where their music is localised and doesn’t have much global reach. When they get plays from somewhere like the uk / us etc it’s a huge deal and can put them on the map / lead to big opportunities

romanticising this idea of 'digging' in the internet era and using that as justification to not share tracks is wild to me.

producers work soo hard, many do not have access to revenue streams, gigs or touring opportunities, it's the absolute bare minimum you can do to support.

as a producer i would find it v weird if you were gatekeeping my music...plz dont do this thanks x

I can’t believe that there’s even a counter argument for sharing your tracklists loool it’s giving 1990’s it’s literally 2024 and the music isn’t even yours??

New Sam Interface & Gafacci ⏰

“Brekete” is a straight up dancefloor smasher featuring live percussion from Ghanaian master drummer Alphonse Ahumani, mixing his polyrhythmic rhythms with deep 808’s, heavy kicks and wild atmospherics.

Out now on Beatport

Why is this such a controversial take? Like, I love this music that’s why I’m playing it? I WANT you to know what it is, and to support the artists who make it! I want you to go listen more and form your own connections to it. What could you possibly get from not sharing…

I feel like DJs who disagree with this are driven mostly by ego, not a genuine desire to share music with people and cultivate taste which for me, is at the core of why I started DJing. Sharing tracklists literally only benefits listeners and more importantly, producers.

“no track IDs” is stupid. you’re keeping an artist from a possible fan or sale and using their work to make money DJing. bet you would tell someone if they asked and it was your own track. if you’re pushed for time to add one to a mix online ok, but in a club after your set 🤬

hot take if you’re a dj and you gatekeep your tracklists you don’t give af to the musicians who created the songs you love 💕👁️👁️
