There's also this strange look your given when you tell people you're not with a production company. |

02.17.12 | Screw the dub bring in the future |
Acanthus
02.17.12 | Well they asked "what genre?" so I told them EDM. We're going to have an intermission of whatever-the-fuck-I-want if I get bored, prolly some MSI for a nice 3min breather from the wubs. |

02.17.12 | Do you actually produce or are you just a DJ? |
Acanthus
02.17.12 | Just a DJ, there's so many producers.... they're everywhere. |

02.17.12 | if you don't mind me asking where are you from area-wise? i wish i had dubstep bar nights near me lol |
Acanthus
02.17.12 | Around central MO - we've got a weekly and a monthly(?) dubstep events that kinda compete crowd wise (also have a slight DJ schism there too). |

02.17.12 | @Tyrannic: If you live in a decent-sized city, there'll probably be clubs that even minors can get into where there are dubstep shows/kind of club scenes. You just have to have the right peeps added on Facebook so you can get the Event invitations. |
Tyrannic
02.17.12 | i mean, i'm twenty one... so that doesn't matter. i know of the electro clubs in chicago (spybar, etc) and can get in there,
but i've never seen a dubstep show anywhere near me
edit: dang i was in st. louis a few months back. wish i would have known so i could add an hour or two to the trip |
Acanthus
02.17.12 | I'd imagine you'd get a kick out of them, once the crowd moves it really starts to become fun. I'm pretty nervous for the night, I don't have a job so I've not got a lot of what I'd enjoy having gear wise. |
Tyrannic
02.17.12 | what are you working with? my friend who's in bloomington now does a little dj work too |
Acanthus
02.17.12 | Well I normally use the venue's mixer, as I'm looking at getting a NS6 once I save the money up (want to be able to scratch if I so choose). Basically atm it's me and my laptop, unless the venue has light controls at the table and then I'm all over that (I run Traktor). |
Tyrannic
02.17.12 | yeah i think he's just on some mixer he got with the canadian government's money (student loans in canada are ballin') and his laptop, but his laptop is boss cause he's also a tech god too, so he makes a surprisingly detailed set with little resources |
Acanthus
02.17.12 | I mean laptop only sets are completely fine, and Traktor has some great effects don't get me wrong there. It's more of an image/personal feeling that happens occasionally; I want to learn more. Once the music starts I don't mind, but before the event my feathers get a bit ruffled. |

02.17.12 | Are you mixing live? |
