I like the fact that the label is more generic and
vague. I like the fact that we're all open to so
much, as opposed only listening to "crunchy melodic
trance-hop and only in the key of A sharp".
Furthermore, when I go out, I prefer to hear a mix
filled with variety. I respect the ability to mix a
lot of stuff together and still make it sound good,
plus it keeps my attention. When it all just goes
BOOM BOOM or SKITTER SKITTER my attention span drifts
and why would I want to pay you to do that?
That's why I really like the Record Camp folks at
Level X in Brooklyn (when I get off my lazy butt and
go, which hasn't been very recently unfortunately).
They seem to play a nice mix of a lot of stuff, and I
like it all.
Don't underestimate your audience or yourself and play
such a narrow style... unless, of course, I suppose,
you know that's exactly what everyone wants, and you
want it too...
Whatever
